growing up so fast

Well, I have nothing special really to blog about. I just need to post some resent pictures of Nolan. I can't believe he will be 3 months next week, where has the time gone??? It's gone so fast and he is starting to get so much more interactive and social. I have really been enjoying these last few weeks with him. I will admit the first month kicked my butt. I was so exhausted from lack of sleep and then trying to recover on top of that was just so hard. I really asked myself "what have I done"!!! But getting through that first month and now having Nolan sleeping through the night has really helped (he started sleeping through the night at about 6 weeks, I consider myself blessed) I truly can't imagine our lives without Nolan. He really has such a special spirit and I already have fallen in love with his personality. I am so excited for the months to come!!

Our trip to Star Valley/Jackson Hole

We just got back from a fun vacation to Star Valley/Jackson Hole with Nicks family. We stayed in some cozy little cabins in Star Valley. I was a little hesitant to go on a vacation with a 2 month old since I haven't traveled yet with Nolan and I wasn't sure how he would do...needless to say it was amazing and went better than I could have ever though. He honestly didn't cry once on the whole trip and in the car as we traveled he slept the whole time and didn't make a peep. He was so pleasant on the trip I couldn't believe it. I guess it’s good to know we will be able to travel with him and still live a normal life ;)

Beautiful Jackson Hole, Wyoming

Me and my cute niece Madison, who is almost 9 and will be taller than me in probably a year! Isn't that just sad!
