Happy Halloween and a cute video

We had a great Halloween Party and it was so fun to see so many of our friends. Dominic didn't go trick or treating this year, but he was super cute for the party. Here is a great pic of our adorable little guy for Halloween!



He says just about one word now a days...
(just ignore the toys in the background)

My big boy!

Dominic is getting so big. He is getting to be more fun each day.

Here is what he has been doing lately:
-sitting up on his own
-laughing
-trying to stand up (his legs are still pretty shakey though)
-loves playing with toys
-loves riding around in his stroller

I can't wait for each and every step along the way. Here are some super cute pics of him lately

Cabin Trip

So, we recently discovered that my Dad has a part ownership in a cabin in Lamb's Canyon (which is only about 30 or 45 minutes away). We were able to go up this last weekend and it was so awesome!

To get to the cabin you wind up the mountain and the cabin is almost at the very top. It has a gorgeous view.



We mostly just enjoyed being lazy and relaxing. We all had a great time...and we got some great pictures of Dominic

Baby's first trip

We decided to go visit some of our friends and go to Dinosaur park for a little family vacation. It was a nice first vacation for our little man...with a drive that he could handle.

We enjoyed relaxing with our friends, doing a little hiking and just getting out of town for a few days.

Dominic's blessing day

Today was the day that our son was given a name on the record of our church and a blessing. It was so beautiful! It was so special to see my son surrounded by men who love and support him.

Justin and Dominic both wore kilts to honor our Scottish heritage. Justin wore his kilt for our wedding reception so it was fun to keep up the tradition and they both looked so awesome!

I'm a terrible blogger....but here are some fun pics of the little man

Well, our little guy is growing so fast... as of last thursday he was 13 and a half pounds!!! He is starting to smile, laugh and coo. It is so fun.

I started back to work last week and I have mixed emotions about that. It is nice to get back to work but I feel tired all the time again (apparently that doesn't go away just because your baby sleeps through the night). I also miss my time with him...even though I know I am really blessed to still get so much time with him. I can't believe how much I love the little guy :)

HE'S HERE!!!

Here are a couple pics of our cute little one. He decided to arrive after a very short labor (at least at the hospital) and delivery.

Dominic Junius McEwan arrived at 3:05 am on Wednesday March 23rd. He surprised everyone by being big at 8 lbs 13 oz and measuring 22 inches long. I am really glad he didn't decide to stay in till his due date! Not sure I would have survived delivering him much bigger.

We brought him home yesterday and seem to be adjusting fairly well. I am a bit overwhelmed with the responsibility but simply love him!
