Bear Picture--1 Month

Mikah at 1 month. Isn't he so handsome?!

Kennedie and Mikah

Kennedie loves her little brother. Here are a few pictures of them just hanging out.
Kennedie wants Mikah to be wherever she is, or she wants to be wherever he is.She is also sharing with him. This is her cupcakes that she can draw on. I came in to find him with a cupcake and a marker.

1st Bear Picture

We are taking pictures of Mikah each month next to a bear to show how he is growing. This is his very first one, just a few days after he was born. He is so tiny, but look at those cheeks!

Mikah James Thompson

We are so excited to welcome Mikah to our family! He joined our family on December 17, 2010 at 1:28 pm. He weighed 8 lbs. 2 oz. and was 20 inches. We love our new addition and Kennedie especially loves her brother!

Halloween

Kennedie loved carving the pumpkins and we were really surprised she stuck her hands in and helped pull out the seeds and everything. She kept wanting to put the candle in before we were completely done, and then we had to light it in her pumpkin before the rest of our pumpkins were even started. She loves looking at the picture of us and our pumpkins and always says, "Daddy's punkin, Mommy's punkin, Kennedie's punkin."

Kennedie dressed as Minnie and Jer & I made our costumes.

Kennedie trick-or-treating at Grandma Dawn's house. That's the only place we went since Grandma and Grandpa Thompson were visiting Steph and Albert in Kansas.

28 Weeks

Well, I thought since I am now 6 months along I should catch you up on things since last time. We went in at 16 weeks and scheduled our first ultrasound. We went in at 20 weeks for the ultrasound and the umbilical cord was in the way, and the baby's feet were crossed. They also told me I needed to drink more water. We scheduled another ultrasound for 24 weeks and finally were able to tell that we are having a BOY! Jer is so excited! I am a little nervous, since I really have no idea what to expect with a boy. The doctors again told me I need to up my water intake or else...they will put me on bed rest. That is definitely not something I want to do. I have been drinking lots more water and I think I am ok. I had my gestational diabetes test, and failed. So I went in today to get my 3 hour one done. I am glad it is over, but I now have to wait for the results. I am getting more excited to have him come, but I am also glad I still have 3 more months to get ready. Kennedie knows where Mikah is, and everytime we ask her, she wants to lift up my shirts, stick her finger in my belly button, and then blow on my tummy. I don't think she quite understands what is going on yet.

Jeramie's Races

Jeramie has now started to run in 5K's. He has enjoyed the 2 he has participated in and is already signed up for 2 or 3 more. I am not the best with taking pictures with our camera so I appologize for the bad photos. The first one we forgot the camera, so the pictures are from Jer's phone. That one was for the Washington County Fair. He ran it in 23 min. 28 sec.

The second one was for Swiss Days (Santa Clara). He ran that one in 23 min. 42 sec.

At the Fair

Kennedie loved the animals at the fair. Her favorite animals were the goats. I spent most of our time at the slide with her, since she wouldn't sit still to watch the demolition derby. We still had fun tho.

24th of July

We spent the evening with Grandma and Grandpa Thompson on the 24th of July. At first, Kennedie didn't want anything to do with the sparklers, and then when there were about 4 left, she wanted to hold them.

Riding the Train

While we were up north this summer we went to Salt Lake. We rode the train (FrontRunner) down and spent the day. We stopped at Temple Square, went to the Gateway, and the Planetarium. It was a blast!

We also got to visit with Great-grandma and grandpa Tubbs while we were up north.
