Buddies

This last week Jaden had a playdate with Connor and Tristan! I was in a student ward with Connor and Tristan's mom's back in the day (Sally and Nichole) and we have always been very close friends! We didn't even know we were all preggo until we were all over 3 months along, so it has been fun getting together and having boys the same age! Well we got kinda bored so we decided to take pics of the boys together! Aren't they cute!

They started out sitting together

Then they got the wiggles!

Tristan really just wanted to get down

They are just so fun! Jaden is so lucky to have so many good friends already!

Then for those of you who know anything about our dear sweet little Jaden, you know that he DOES NOT like to sleep any way but bunddled very tight with 2 recieving blankets and a snuggler that velcros! Well apparently that's only at night, because today I decided I was going to try to put him down for a nap just in his crib unswaddled. This was a crazy idea for me because last night he got his fingers up out of his swaddle twice and woke up each time! I tried to let him put himself back to sleep but after 2 hrs of waking up every 5 min, crying for ten and then repeating I was just done! I gave in and rebunddled him. Maybe we are on our way though because he has now been asleep almost 45 min unswaddled!!! HOORAY!!! Good job little guy!

Jaden also turned 5 months old yesterday! He's getting SO big!

So Funny

Okay, so Jaden thinks he is just SO funnny! Lately he's gotten in the habit of eating him bumbo instead of sitting in it. When I went to take a picture of him doing so, we played this little game!

"Here I go mom, I'm going to eat it...here I go"

"Ha ha...made you look"

"no really...this time I'm going to"

"And you didn't believe me!"

I just couldn't help but sharing these! He's just SO cute!

Stud of the Day!

We went out this week and got Jaden some new snow gear, this is my favorite! Lets be honest, it doesn't get much cuter than this!

Such a happy little guy

Lately Jaden has started to really get into reaching for things, he hates laying on his tummy still, so when we lay him down on it he automatically just rolls onto his back! I love it! He is also becoming quite the little independent sitter! (though he is not such a fan of this either) The other day he sat by himself for a good 15 seconds! Oh the simple joys of a new mother! :) You can see in this picture just how much he enjoys this new activity haha!

Trick or Treat

Hooray for Halloween and Hooray its over! What a long but fun day! Jaden and I started up the morning by heading to shawns work for "cubical trick or treating" and Jaden was a hit! Who wouldn't love this little dragon though eh!? Then we headed to Nanna's work so she could see him and then off to visit with the cousins! Elizabeth and Marissa were dressed up so cute! After that we helped Auntie Amy bake some eyeball cookies and then off to see more cousins down in Lehi! We went trunk or treating with Trent and Michelle and the kids and then off we went to Grandma Cleggs, where we decorated cookies and had a grand old time! I know it sounds like we spent the entire day driving from one place to another, and we kinda did...but we had a great time! Jaden is blabbering so much now! I bet he had a 10 minute conversation with Grandpa Clegg that night! I wasn't as camera happy as I should have been but here are some fun pictures!

This is the first time Jaden tried on his Halloween costume...not such a fan!

I think it kinda grew on him though!

Just a little dragon...hanging out!

Here's Elizabeth just checking out her cousin...not quite sure what his fasination with her skirt is.

The Buck grankids! Missa wanted out of her costume early! Please note the Jaden has graduated from staring at the skirt to putting it in his mouth...just about where everything ends up these days!

About a week ago I decided to go get Jaden a bumbo! When I first saw them I thought they were ridiculously overpriced and kinda lame.... Well I have to say I have somewhat changed my mind. I still think they are ridiculously overpriced...but so great!!!! Jaden loves his! We went out to dinner the night we got it and Jaden sat at the table with us for over an hour, completely content just hanging out! SO for those of you considering buying one....I say go for it! Here he is in it on Halloween! In his little orange get up Nanna got for him!
