4 Months and lots of great news!

I can't believe Landon is 4 months old! He is getting so big and has changed so much it's absolutely insane! This last week, on March 4, Landon's very first cousin was born. Brady and Virginia had their sweet little boy who was 8 lbs 7 oz and 21 inches. He was born in Logan. They named him Jaxson Derek Pond. Landon and I made a trip up to Logan on Friday to meet little Jaxson. Landon and Jaxson are 4 months apart to the day! Pretty cool. We love little baby Jaxson and are soooo glad that he's in our family now.

In other great news, Dave and I have made the largest purchase of our lives... Yes, we bought a HOUSE! It is in Santaquin, which is where we currently live! It has 5 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms and a 2 car garage! It also has an awesome shop in the backyard for Dave to work in and to weld. We are closing during the last week of March and can move in after April 4! If anyone feels like lending a helping hands during that time, we would love the help! We don't have a lot of furniture yet so if you have any couches, side tables, coffee tables, etc. that you would like to get rid of or sell, let me know!! :) Because most likely, I will be able to take them off of your hands until we can afford to buy brand new stuff.

Other LATE but still great news...we had another addition to the family on February 15. My uncle Ryan and his wife April had a little baby boy! Jack Ryan Pond. We were able to go and visit them a few days after little Jack was born. (Landon looks GINORMOUS next to all these little newborns!!)

Like I said, Landon is changing a ton! Here are some new things about him and things he's done.

*He smiles ALL THE TIME!*He will scream his head off if you try to craddle him in your arms and he's not sleepy

*He will gets pretty happy when he hears my voice

*He has sat in his booster/high chair for the first time

*He likes his bumbo chair....sometimes (His thighs are a little too chunky for it)

*He loves to grasp toys and tries to eat all of them*He has met the bummer baby lambs and was fixated on them for like 10 minutes while they "baa"ed.

*Comes to work with mom on Fridays and sometimes sleeps on my desk*He is starting to giggle a little

*He munches on his fingers every chance he gets

*He is eating a lot more and tries to hold his own bottle. He is successful 75% of the time.

*He has been on his first vacation which was to California for his uncle Jesse's wedding on January 15

*He has touched the Pacific Ocean

*He was blessed on January 2, 2010 in the Santaquin 12th ward by his dad!

Overall, we are a busy and happy little family!
