summertime...


so, i am the worst blogger, but you all knew that already, so i'm going to stop apologizing. life is pretty good right now, and we're really enjoying the summer with truman.

some adventures so far:
we had a "family fun" day" out to antelope island, and truman decided he did not want to participate. he cried the whole way there, most of the time there (except when nursing, which he wanted about every hour!), and the entire way home. apparently, he is not a fan of antelopes. we hadn't seen crying like that since the first month of his life, fortunately, but it definitely was not family fun!

we spent the saturday before father's day doing activities joel suggested and had the most wonderful time. we went down to the 1st farmer's market of the season in pioneer park downtown. truman was a dream, just kickin' it in his stroller, checking out all the ladies in their strollers too. after that, we went to the tracy aviary at liberty park and had a great time there as well. truman really enjoys being outdoors (just not on family fun day), and was so good in his stroller. we brought our new camcorder (i think the last time we used it was in the hospital when he was born!) and got some great footage of our adventure. after that, we went to the sun and the moon cafe for dinner. it is up emigration canyon in this beautiful spot. the food was delicious, and truman was still being such a trooper. all in all, a perfect father's day weekend.

what else? truman is now 5 months old and still growing like a weed. his personality has really come out and he is this happy, laughing little boy most of the time. he has these big, beautiful blue eyes that will make you melt, and then when he smiles, you'll give me everything you have! he's going to be a charmer, this one! and trouble. definitely, trouble! he is so loving and wakes up every day the happiest little guy you've ever seen. he's rolling and moving all over the place and would really love to be crawling. he is super strong and catches some serious air in his jumperoo! all in all, things are great and we are really enjoying the family life!
