Children

Not sure who loves bath time more. . .

I loved Neil L Anderson's talk from conference last month. It really touched my little heart. . . probably mostly because I had just had a baby 2 months before, but it totally related to my life and my new feelings toward my sweet child. Anyway, I just keep thinking about words from his talk when I look at my little baby. "I testify of the great blessing of children and of the happiness they will bring us in this life and in the eternities." I concur. Seriously this kid has brought me joy I didn't ever know possible.

It's funny how being a parent really does make you find happiness in the simple things. Like. . . I am SO happy when he poops. Weird I know. But it makes me so happy when he grunts and grunts and finally gets it out cuz I know his tummy feels better. And I'm so happy when I look at him in his peaceful sleep. Or when he's just so excited to eat or take a bath. I'm so happy when he coos and laughs. It makes me happy when he's fussing and then smiles when he sees me. SO happy when he is happy. He is just pure joy.

Happy 3 Months Baby Trey!!!

3 months old! 12 lbs. 13 oz.

Little chunk. . . I mean, hunk.

Treagan and Cannon playing on Grammy's bed.

We got these shirts for them when we were in Maui last February. Treagan was about the size of a blueberry at that point and Cannon was due any day. It's just crazy how fast time is flying! They looked as cute as we hoped they would in their matching shirts!

This is his face every night at about 7:30. Wants to go to bathe,
eat, and go to bed so bad!

I can't believe that Treagan is 3 months old today. He is growing like a mad man, and I swear he changes with each passing day. Even though I miss my teeny tiny baby, I am loving everything that comes with each stage. When I go to his room in the morning to get him out of his crib, the smile he gives me every morning just melts me! Lucky for us, he's a pretty good little sleeper. He goes down at about 8:30 every night, gets up once to eat sometime around 3 or 4, and then goes right back down til about 6 or 7. I really love it when he'll go til 7. But either way, he's one happy baby in the morning! It makes having to wake up a lot better for me that's for sure. My mom helped us buy him a little play mat (his first toy) and he LOVES it. He talks to the singing star, kicks his crazy little legs, and bats at all the hanging toys with his arms. It's precious. Well I hate to say it. . . but my maternity leave ends tomorrow. AGH. I feel so blessed that I have been able to stay home for the last few months to be with Treagan. I'm grateful for Kelly and for his hardwork to even make it possible. And he is going to continue to work extra hard for us so Mommy only has to go back to work two days a week. PHEW! We are also very grateful for Grammy (my mom) for being willing to help watch Trey so I can work. We really are so blessed. I know I am going to have a little bit of a rough time leaving Trey since I haven't really left him for more than a couple hours since I met him! But I know it will be good for all of us. He's such a blessing in my life. I feel so overwhelmingly blessed that I get to be his Mother. Thanks for being our bestest little buddy T.O. We just love every little thing about you. . .

It Was a Happy Halloween

Football Costume

We had such a fun weekend. For the first time in my life I didn't dress up for Halloween. I guess it's about time I grow up eh? But it's crazy how much more exciting holidays are with a little one. We had a little Halloween party at our house on Saturday with my bro and sis in law, and a bunch of friends. It was a good time. . . all the way up until the boys somehow convinced us to watch Paranormal Activity. Ugh. We were all so freaked out. We decided that the guys owe us at least 10 chick flicks for that. We had tons of fun though with the crew, we always do. Then Sunday we got together with my fam, which was so fun because Treagan got to play with his cousin, Cannon. I'll post those pics later. And then for Halloween we just stayed in and handed out candy to all the cute little trick or treaters since the baby goes down at about 8. It was a very Happy Halloween! Treagan and Holly were both very good sports in their cute costumes. We just love our little babies.

Baby Trey's first Halloween

Daddy did such a good job helping them carve their pumpkins.

Our little Devil and Angel.

The Angel kissing the Devil.

Best Friends. . .

Trying to be so good, but I don't think he loved wearing his costume!

As of late. . .

Only Kelly can make a Baby Bjorn look manly.

Just truckin up the mountain with ease.

Battle Creek Falls

Grammy got him this BIG BOY outfit!

Just hangin on Mommy's and Daddy's bed with my best buddy.

Trey missed out on the pic at Cornbelly's cuz he was asleep in the stroller.

Catchin the last few rays of the year.

Morning walks with Mama and the stroller gang.

Up Provo Canyon

Looking at all the pretty leaves.

Proud Papa

I just wanna squeeze that sweet little face.

Trying to be such a good sport, but getting tired!

This pic makes me so sad. . . The beginning of his first cold. . . UGH.

Just miserable. . . But somehow still so cute!

Poor babe.

Still loves his binky, even though he can't breathe with it in.

Napping on the big bed.

We are having a blast watching this little dude grow! He just gets more and more loveable with each passing day. It's so fun to have Kelly come home everyday for lunch. He always comments that Trey is bigger every time he comes home. It's true! Although we hate that Daddy has to work late hours, we love that he has Tuesdays off now with the new hours. With this awesome weather we've been loving going on family hikes. Trey is such a good sport in the Baby Bjorn. He just loves to slobber all over his dad's chest. Treagan also loves going with mommy and her friends on walks every morning. The bummer news is that Treagan got his first cold this week. Not quite sure where we picked up this evil bug, but both he and I got it. A sick and tired baby and a sick and tired mama is not a good combo. It's been pretty rough the last couple days, but luckily I think we are on the mend! Little T.O. has been a champ though it all. Even though I know he's feelin awful he still tries to smile at me through his poor little watery eyes. He's just adorable.

TREAGAN O BEHUNIN

He loves to throw out the peace sign. . .

asleep after an exhausting day!

So good at tummy time!

Mommy is so happy he finally loves his binkies!

I think he's just sayin a little prayer before his blessing. . . haha.

Big yawn

Me and my cute cuz, Katie.

Trey's Aunt Penny and cousin Nater

This is Grandpa B getting busted trying to give Trey his first brownie. Look at his little smirk.

The Behunin Bunch. . . Gettin ready for church!

Trey and his Grammy

Our sweet little bundle was blessed just this last Sunday, October 9th. The blessing itself was amazing, but the whole day was exhausting for us all! Treagan's cute daddy was the one to give him a name and a blessing. I'm so grateful to be married to a man who worthily holds the Priesthood. He did such a good job. He blessed him with health and strength, and a love for the Gospel. Of course the line that stood out to me is when he said, "I bless you that you will always love and honor your mother..." HAHA Trey, now you really have to! I definitely cried through the entire thing. I felt so much love for both of my boys in that moment. I just sat back and really tried to soak the whole thing in. Afterwards we had our friends and fam stick around for some lunch, which of course was a great time. Thanks to my mama especially for all her help, and to everyone else for coming and for bringing such yummy things! And I'm such an idiot and didn't think to pull out my camera until pretty much everyone was gone. So that's why there's not a bunch of pics from that. I did have a little photo sesh with the star of the day though luckily. Oh I love him! So thankful he is mine all mine!
