Roman 11 Months

I know, I know.......he is 15 months now, but I am a slacker so I am backtracking about 4 months:) But I want to make sure I write everything down. So here we go.............

ROMAN 11 MONTHS

This was a really big month for little Roman, because he learned to walk!!!!

I am in love with his smile, because he has a mouth full of teeth to show off. At 11 months he has 8 teeth.

He is a very independent baby, which I love because he doesn't need to be held.....he actually dislikes it very much:)

He is very energetic, which makes church interesting. 

He is into everything.

There couldn't be a more fitting shirt for him.

A Second Miracle-14 weeks and counting!

The story starts around the middle of December (right before Roman turns one)..........

I wake up with a horrible headache and feel sick. After a while I threw up and that was that. No more sick spells. But I was constantly hungry over the next couple weeks, which added to the weirdness of throwing up out of the blue. I had a feeling it could be true, but when I asked Jared "What if I am pregnant?" he thought the recent hunger was due to a diet I had finished doing. 

Because of our history, and doctors giving us such a small chance of conceiving, I tried not to get my hopes up.....but to be honest I had been feeling like it was time to start trying again, even though Roman was only 11 months old. Because what of it took years to get pregnant again?! Well, apparently I wasn't the only one who thought it was "time" for Roman to have a sibling!!!!!!! Heavenly Father knew it was time too:) So, sometime around August 30th our new addition will arrive! 

Don't get me wrong, sometimes the mixed emotions come. Wow, two kids? I don't know if I can handle this......I just lost weight and now I get to be fat again.......How will Roman react with a new baby?

But overall, we couldn't be more excited! And I am really trying not to get my hopes up for a girl:)  

Everything in the mouth

I am just wondering if or when the day will come when he will decide that not everything has to go in the mouth? Hilarious, but nasty sometimes too:)

 Okay, the binky is acceptable.

11 months and walking

Ummmmm.....seriously where did time go?  I don't really know, but I do know that he gets cuter by the minute.  Not only is he walking, he is running and there is no stopping him now!

Halloween 2010

My little Frog, Roman got his first taste of candy and he was in HEAVEN!!!! We threw a halloween bash at Monica's where we had games for kids and we made party favors for all the kids that looked like broomsticks (sadly I didn't take a picture of that!) The kids played darts where they popped balloons for prizes, and musical chairs which seemed to be the favorite. I kept going in the garage and turning the lights out to give them a little scare:) It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun! Then we went Trunk or Treating in Springville with Kathy, and the Booths. It was too cold and windy so they had to move it indoors.

We were pretty impressed with our cookies.

October in Arizona

Monica, Hailey, Roman and I drove to Scottsdale to see my sister Bonnie in October. Roman was so great on the drive there.....I feel so lucky! We did plenty of shopping (H&M!!!!), bowling, miniature golfing and more shopping.
