While you were cooking...

My sweet little Jude. This boy sure has our hearts. He couldn't be any sweeter and is so much fun and so extremely goofy. We just adore him. 

Jude is becoming well known at my doctor's office. We have been seeing him weekly since I was 28 weeks. One of the girls there hooked him up with some suckers the other day and of course he took two and of course they are both blue. He is obsessed with the color blue and not just blue, he is very specific that it is dark blue. I am sure that it has to do with the fact that Captain America is dressed in mostly blue. 

I bought this amazing coloring book that you fill a little pen with water and paint the pages and when it dries you can do it all again. It has been one of my favorite purchases. 


Daddy's little buddy. Jude and Marc have already become the best of friends. Especially since we've been extra cautious to make sure I don't do too much and throw myself into labor. Marc pretty much takes Jude out on a bike ride every night that is warm enough and I usually soak in the bath.... and the quiet. 

There is nothing I love more then to see my sweet boy sleeping. 


We busted out the finger paints the other day and it was a total mess but a lot of fun... for one of us. 



I took this picture purely to document how Jude loves his heater and always has. Since he was a baby this thing has soothed him. Every time he gets out of the bath he runs to his heater and snuggles up right by it. 

Jude and I spent the day in SLC the other. We started at the zoo. I was so excited to see the active gorillas. Marc has Jude completely freaked out about them. He spends more time on this slide then actually looking at the animals. 

And of course, by freaked out of gorillas also means intrigued.

Then we stopped by City Creek and played on the escalators and fountains. 

He wasn't even a little worn out. :)

The obsession continues. Sometimes Both Captains need breakfast. 

Is there anything better then something keeping a child's attention for more then 10 minutes?

Jude does this over dramatic throw to mimic Captain America when he throws his shield. It is so unnatural and really cracks me up. I love it. 

We had a great time at the St. Patrick's Day parade, despite the wind and freezing temperatures. Sometimes I can't believe these boys are both mine forever. I adore them both. 

Daddy and Jude both got to take a trip to the barber shop. Jude Scowled the entire time. It took a lot of convincing that it was a good idea to get his hair cut. He even tried to tell me it was going to give him a cough.  

Date night. Trying to squeeze in every moment we can together before we're forgotten in the craziness of newborns. 

No words. I'm just stunned by the love I feel for this little guy. Especially when he's not testing my patience. 

Marc captured this shot the other day. Asleep upside down with Captain America across his face. Such a goof. 

We are also trying to soak up these last days of just Jude-O. He has no idea what's comin his way. 

speaking of things keeping kids attention. Jude played with this forever. Putting things in that bottle, dumping them out, repeat. 

Had a fun little play date with my sisters and Jude spent almost the entire time on this train table. 

He could spend hours at the park. It's such a bitter sweet taking him there because regardless if we spend ten minutes there or 3 hours its a fight when it's time to leave. Heaven bless spring and the warm weather. 


I'm terrified of walking up hills, so we walk Sundance down at the golf course. Now that I am getting further along I am getting more confident of walking up hills around our neighborhood. The picture on the right is a side tracked Jude throwing rocks off a bridge. What is with boys and throwing rocks. We sat there and did that for over an hour. 


ALL THINGS BABY

Something I never got to do with Jude is just sit in his complete nursery. There are many times that Jude and Marc can't find me and I'm tucked away rocking my big belly in the new nursery. 

Umm.... I've got quite the belly going and it comes in handy all the time. 

The left is 33 weeks and the right is almost 35. (Can I just put in a plug for how bad I hate selfies but I am determined to document this pregnancy and I feel like I never know when my last chance to get a belly shot will be.)
