the worst blogger ever

so mr jude dude is 3 (almost 4) months old. it's amazing how time has flown by. since that time i have grown even more in love with my boys. danny is an amazing daddy! he's so cute with jude and i can tell jude loves him so much as he gives such big grins to him. just today he stopped eating and turned towards danny's voice with a big grin bc danny had just gotten home and was talking. jude has got a great personality and an amazing temperment.

mr jude sleeps at least 6 hrs straight at night (and has since he was a few days old). he has gone as long as 9 hrs sometimes! i had to wake him up and force him to eat for the first 6 weeks bc he wasn't waking up to eat. during the day he eats every 3 hrs. he is not a fussy baby. my idea of fussy appears to be nothing compared to others. there has only been a handful of times that i've actually thought--jude what's wrong.

he smiles tons now! he has a cute little laugh and is cooing/talking like crazy. he kicks and swings his arms when he's excited and has now found his hands. he likes to bring both of his hands to his mouth and "contemplate". he rolled over from tummy to back like 2 months ago but seems to have forgotten bc he doesn't do it as often now. he doesn't really like baths (sad for me) and diffenently does not like showers. he's not a huge fan of the binky but is a fan of his fist/thumb. he loves his bouncer and will fall asleep in it with an aggressive bounce. he loves to stand tall, fly like superman, play patty cake, and absolutly loves it when we sing. he's grabbing at toys now as well. he's just amazing and i just love him.

his 2 month check up--
he was 23 inches long (75%) and weighed 10 pounds 6 ounces (35%). he got his shots (which he did not like) and he rolled over for the doctor.

some highlights of the past 3 months
-jude was blessed by his daddy on jan 8th. we had his blessing at our house bc it was stake conference that week for our ward. my cousing got married the 7th and my mom did the wedding cake. so jude was blessed with tons of family at our house. not only was my daddy, mom, and sister there from delaware, but tons of my family that live in utah was here PLUS family that were in town for my cousins wedding. the house was packed with all family! the food was delicious! it was a beautiful day, showing off jude and seeing family support us. danny did a great job and a beautiful prayer. i was sure proud!

-i started back at work. i now work nights. 12 hour shifts from 6pm to 6am. it's really not that bad, i work 2 shifts one week and 3 shifts the next week for the minimal hours for full time so we can get cheaper benefits. the worst part is recovering the next day and leaving the family. i really enjoy beign social with the patients and other co-workers. i'm going to cross train to pediatrics which i'm really excited about.

-we went to the joan jett concert. she winked at me. it was amazing. i went with danny and his sister and mom! it was during sundance film festival and we also got to see on stage kirsten stewart and dakota fanning for their new movie the runaways.

-danny and i went on a romantic get away for my birthday weekend! it was sooooo much fun and so needed! we went snowboarding at sundance which was so much fun but i am so out of shape. plus at sundance it was icy and slushy. THEN we went to the roof in salt lake city! it was sooo beatiful and romantic. the food was amazing but i was so tired and was sad that i couldn't eat tons at the gourmet buffet. we THEN spent the night at anniversary inn!! it was a blast and i'll just leave it at that. christian and sarah were amazing and watched jude and capo! i was ever so greatful. it was amazing!

besides that, danny is still loving work and going to double school. we are so packed in our schedule. he will graduate around jan and we are excited!

well i've gotta go--update pics latter.
