Our little Sether is growing up!

Seth is really growing up fast. He is a little over 5 months old now and is so close to sitting up on his own. He is also developing quite the interesting personality. This kid has got a SERIOUS set of lungs...and he has a pretty bad temper. Usually when I lay him down in his play pen or on the floor to play with toys he cries and screams like I have just done the most horrible thing in the world. Clint and I have gotten used to lingering migraine headaches as the result of Seth's daily tantrums. But when he isn't screaming his head off, we have been able to capture some cute moments with him.

I took this picture one Sunday morning last month. I just love his little church outfit! He's my preppy little guy!



Seth is so curious. He loves to take his wash cloth from me during his baths and eat it.




This is Daddy/Seth time. Clint was trying to explain to Seth how fantasy football works.



My dad bought this BYU hat at the hospital gift shop when Seth was first born. His head is finally big enough for it. Now that it is getting colder, I have a lot of excuses to put it on him!

Seth is rolling around so much now. We will put him to bed in the middle of the crib and in the morning I will find him squished into the corner. We find him asleep on his tummy with his bum in the air or with the blanket wrapped around his middle. The worst is when I find the blanket up over his head. We have discovered this a couple of time this week...which makes me really nervous. He's such a little weirdo.

We introduced Seth to rice cereal when he was 4 months old. That started off well. Now he really doesn't seem too into it anymore. Some days he screams and screams and screams when I try to feed him anything in his high chair. He just really loves his formual more. But we are slowly adding applesauce. That seems to help.

Labor Day Breakfast

Okay, okay! I know this post is WAY late but Seth is a handful so I don't really get time to blog too much. Not to mention...Clint and I are pretty boring. We haven't really done much worth blogging about.
For Labor Day this year we drove up the canyon to a little camp ground and ate breakfast with some of Clint's family. Paul was our superb chef. He cooked Italian sausage, eggs, hashbrowns, campfire toast (which is delish!) and hot chocolate.
Seth was a champ! He was all bundled up and enjoyed hanging out with us while we ate. I'm hoping we make this an annual tradition!

I know Clint doesn't like to hear it but Seth actually looks better in blue than in red. Sorry sweetie!
