Mr. wiggly # 2

when I was pregnant with Adam I thought he was a wiggly little kid, he probably was too, but Cook boy #2 has him beat... by a long shot. if things moving inside of a belly makes you a little queasy, then this video is not for you.  this happens multiple times a day and he has only gotten bigger and stronger since I filmed it last week.

I am 32 weeks along now and as you can see, he is doing great. (I'm feeling pretty good myself)  I should have a prego picture up here soon. We are calling him Kyle and we can't wait to meet him :)

May happenings

We have been having a great time getting into the routine of things here in Springville. Nathaniel started working full time a week after graduation and now he is also getting the benefits, like health insurance :) super helpful with this little one coming in a couple months.  Adam has also adapted really well to this new place and I appreciate so much having enough space for him to run around and actually use up all his energy. he is pretty consistently taking a 2-3 hour nap each day and sleeps from 8:00 to 7:00 every night. he loves the park down the street and we make sure we visit at least once a week.
It seems like our little monkey has been progressing by leaps and bounds since we moved here. that might be because he has so much interaction with kids who are older than he is, but he impresses me every day with what he is learning, and how he is growing.  Just cause we haven't had a lot of pics of him for a while....

 Where's Adam belly?

 there it is! ( I almost have him convinced that there is not a baby in his belly like mama's... almost :)

 he was practicing blowing bubbles and plugging his nose

 he will water anything if we let him... especially mom and dad!

 snuggle monkey

love those baby blues!

My graduate

During the whirl wind month of April, Something that our whole family has been anxiously waiting for (for a long time) happened!  we have our own washer and dryer! ...(okay, maybe I was the only one really waiting for that)  further more, Nathaniel Graduated from BYU!  YAY!  I really couldn't be more proud of all his hard works and efforts that resulted in his Bachelors of science in physics.  he also received two minors in computer science and mathematics... what a smarty pants I have on my hands.  This degree represents so much more than just completing all the required courses, and I am so thankful that Nathaniel has been so great during it all. For the last three years he has been going to school full time and working part time so he could support our family, what a stud.

 waiting for his name to be called

 First thing Adam did was take dads funny hat

 Life is good

 It was all worth it!

 I love you Schatzie!

With Nathaniel's friend Jake who was able to fly out from San Diego and spend a few days with us for the occasion.

Thanks so much for everyone who was able to come and celebrate with us. We couldn't have done it without all of you.  Up next for the Cook household, we will be taking a year of of school for work and will apply for grad school in the fall! I am happy to have a little break (for Nathaniel) before we move off to who knows where. In the mean time I am working on finishing my bachelors degree via independent study and hope to be done with that by the end of the summer.
