Max update

Max has grown up so much in the past few months.  I think it's the big brother business. . .Expect that he always comes us to me and says "I'm a baby, hold me."  He is still pretty cudddly and pretty cute.
He has started snowboarding quite a bit this year with Jeff.  He can go pretty much on his own with Jeff right beside him to make sure he doesn't have any bad falls.
He has such a cute fun personality!  He loves his cars and is super social.  We are so lucky to have him!

3 Months

Jack is 3 months!  We are finally getting a little better adjusted around here.  I'm getting a little better at going to the grocery store, a little better at not wearing pjs all day:)  And Jack is getting better at sleeping at night!  He still can be pretty fussy at times during the day. . . we are still trying to figure that out.  But overall he is getting a little happier all the time!

His brother really does love him!

Jack's Blessing Day

While we were home for Christmas we decided to do Jack's Blessing in the Bryson home.  It was so important to me to have as much family around for his special day as possible.  I feel so blessed to have strong, worthy Priesthood holders in my family to be able to give my baby boy a name and a blessing.

What a special day for our family.  We missed Grandma and Grandpa Beesley so much!!!  

Christmas Day 2013

Christmas morning started around 8am.  It's great that Max had no idea what was about to happen so he slept until his regular time.  When we told him Santa had come, he said "Presents?!!"  He was pretty pleased to see that Santa had indeed delivered. . . He played all day with his new race track!

Santa was good to me too!

Jack was just happy having Grandma and Grandpa love on him!

Later we went to Kent and Melanie's to play with some cousin's in the snow.  Max had to show everyone his snowboard skills!  In the evening me and Max went to Aunt Lana's for some dessert and more fun with family.  It was such a great day!  We were so blessed to have such a great family to spend it with!

Christmas Eve 2013

This year we were able to spend Christmas in Rigby with Grandma and Grandpa Bryson.  It was such a great time to be able to be around family.  I was lucky to get to see alot of my family as well, but mom and dad were greatly missed!
Christmas Eve we had the Bryson Traditional Hebrew dinner.  We all dressed up (except baby Jack who was sleeping).  The menu included: Lamb, figs, dates, bread , and more. . .

Dinner was followed by of course opening some Christmas Jammies!!  Impossible to get a picture of them together, maybe next year.

By the end of the night we had two very tired little boys, so they were put to bed and then Santa's Elves got to work!

Jack 2 months

I can't believe its been 2 months! This little guy is growing so fast and is getting happier all the time.  This month's big accomplishments were SMILING(this is my favorite thing!), making eye contact, and sleeping at night better all the time. He has so far survived the over the top love he gets from his brother. We love him more and more and can't imagine what life was like before. . .
