Sock Hands

This little guy has gotten a little aggressive when he's going down for a nap (or waking up). He used to just rub his eyes when he was sleepy, but lately he grabs and claws.


If you look closely you'll see the scratch on his nose and a scratch up by his left eye. The picture doesn't show the blood vessel he popped on the inside of his eye.

In order to protect him, he now has to sleep with socks on his hands. (he's out grown his mittens)

Farmer Hill

We put Doran in his overalls the other day, and I had a shovel out (hoping to plant some flowers soon) and it   presented the perfect photo!

There were too many cute ones to choose from, so I posted lots.






All done!

And of course, every farm/ranch boy needs some cameo!

4 months old!

Sometimes it is crazy to think this little guy is already 4 months old.

He had his check up today; he's growing and healthy!

Height: 25.75 in (62.98%) he grew 2.25 inches since his 2 month check up.
Weight: 15 lbs 1 oz (37.05%) he gained 2 pounds and 9 ounces
Head Circumference: 42.5 cm (68.21%) no change. The doctor thinks his head must have been measured wrong at his 2 month appointment. Which, would explain why it was OFF the charts last time. Although, he has had a rather large head for a while, so maybe it hasn't changed a lot.

I was kind of surprised that he's only in the 37% for weight, because he seems so much bigger than most kids his age.



He loves to put his own thumb/hand in his mouth. He doesn't really suck, just licks and gnaws. He's pretty social and loves all of the attention he gets.  He hasn't quite caught on to his toes yet, but has liked holding on to his own knees.


At 4 months old he is getting really good at grabbing his toys, or anything that is around. Anything in his hand heads straight for his mouth! He's been chewing on things, but no signs of teeth.

Doran is a very happy baby. He loves to laugh, squeal, and play. Lately, he's been trying to lift his own head up when propped against a pillow or a person. He loves to sit up and look around.




I'm still kicking myself for not taking a 2 month old picture. I was too busy taking Valentine's day pictures I forgot to take them with his sports balls.




Guilty confession: Kylee gave me the cutest months sticker to put on his outfits to watch him progress. Right before Doran was born, I organized all his stuff and found a home for everything. I've searched and searched, but can not find the home I put the little stickers in. Sorry Kylee.

Moses Lake Visit

Last weekend we went out to Devin's grandparents house for a visit. It was nice, relaxing, and uplifting.

A few pictures:
Sleeping while hanging out with Grandpa Great

And, he got to meet his second cousin Audrey, who is 2 days older than him. 
I couldn't get any good pictures...

They both are saying "please, stop taking pictures of us"

Doran and Cy. They sorta matched, so I took a picture.

And these pictures were too cute:

Easter Weekend

We went down to Vancouver to visit my family for Doran's first Easter!

We spent time out in the SUN, painted Easter eggs, BBQ'd, helped Stephen ask a girl to prom, and went on an Easter egg hunt! The Easter Bunny hid eggs and everyone had a specific color to find. Whoever found all 25 of their eggs first, won the GOLDEN egg. I won! And then Devin.

We took a ton of pictures!

Doran and Easter Eggs.




Baby's first Easter basket.


Out in the sunshine. It hit 75 in Vancouver! It was so nice and warm! And, we finally found Doran some sunglasses that actually fit. They're not as cool as his white ones though. 




And his Easter outfit
