Big boy bed!

Babe and I decided we wanted to try to transition Jenson out of his crib.  I'm not sure what our reasons where now except the fact that he kept getting his legs stuck in his crib bars and I was always worried he was going to hurt himself.  

We found the cutest bed at IKEA that will grow with him, it has 4 different sized (ending in a twin!)  We figured eventually we will have another kid (hopefully sooner then later!) and they will have to share a room so we wanted to get something that wouldn't take up to much space.  

Jenson may have fallen out a few times the first week, but we ended up using his extra pieces to his mattress and put them on the ground below him on each side- it's a perfect soft landing! ;)  It took him a few days to learn how to say asleep on the bed (he's a mover!) We had to go in a few time and situate him on his bed so he wasn't halfway off haha

He even got to pick out the sheets himself- at the time he was obsessed with Veggie Tales, now not so much but he still loves them!  I still can't believe our little baby is growing up and in a big boy bed!  :'( 

Baby It's Cold Outside- a shower!

I feel like everyone in my ward is pregnant haha which means lots and lots of baby showers. But lets be honest this one was pretty top knock ;)  Thanks Lindsay for letting me help out! 

The theme was "Baby it's cold outside!"  We had a hot chocolate bar, games, and enjoyed lots of girl talk! :)  Happy new baby Jennae!  

To cute right?!  Also thank you Pintrest for all your extra help ;)

Royals Parade

The Royals won the world series (yahooooo)!!! There was a HUGE parade in their honor, they even canceled all the schools around so everyone could go if hey waited to! So of course we just HAD to go!  

The night before the parade I made shirts for all of us! :)  They tuned out to be some of my favorites!

We headed out bright and early to scope out our spot!  

 Holy humid hair.. haha

 KC was covered in Blue, the fountains were my favorite!

 We found our spot and decided to stay put- right at the end of the parade and the start of the rally (bad choice.. we now know..)

 The more people that showed up the more restless Jenson got,  not to mention it was his nap time!  I stayed with some friends while Matt took Jenson for a little walk.

 a sea of people- seriously everywhere you looked was blue and people! 

 Poor Babe could never find his way back to use because of the amount of people.  There was also NO service or wifi anywhere so I couldn't gotten ahold of him if I tried.  I later found out he took Jenson to the car to try to get him to sleep.  He watched the parade on his phone (he saw more of it then we did!) haha 

 Something I will never forget is the smell of smoke (and anything else you can imagine!)  I had a headache most the time.  Also this lovely couple you see there ^^ were pretty much parents of the year- their poor kid had to use the bathroom but they didn't want to take him so they made him pee in a bottle, while they kept smoking.  At least they coved him up with their jacket so he could have some privacy... 

 The parade would had been cool if we could actually see it haha thanks to my selfie stick I filmed it and got to watch it later haha.  When the parade was over we tried to make our way back to the car which wasn't easy because everyone else and their dog was heading our way for the rally.  When Babe took Jenson he didn't take the stroller so he could run around, which meant I had the empty stroller, sure it was nice to hold all our jackets and keep a few people from creeping on to much of our space.  But I will tell you it's not easy trying to get through thousands of people alone- let alone with a stroller ... I am actually grateful Jenson wasn't there because he would had gone crazy! I got a ton of strange looks though!

Another challenge was trying to get out of the parking lot!  I got a kick out of all the random people who decided it was up to them to direct traffic- until their car got out of the jam! haha

 There was a estimated 800,000 people there- and we were part of it! It was insane! 

 We most likely will never be doing anything like that again but it was fun to say we did it once!  Go Royals!!
