The first few weeks of Callen's life were pretty quiet. We hung out at home a lot and tried to get used to life with a fourth baby. Shawn was our only family member around who came to see the baby and so it was kind of different. I've been really lucky with my other kiddos and had my mom there right away to help out. So it was a little tricky learning to balance everything.
Jeff's mom had scheduled her visit to be a few days after my mom left. Since my mom wasn't able to come, we were MORE than ready for some help by the time Jeanne got here!!!
We had such an incredible week and a half with her here. She spoiled ALL of us by playing with the boys constantly, letting me sleep in, and holding Callen in any of the downtime when she wasn't with the other boys.
It was so fun to have her here and to get to share our sweet Callen with family. I didn't realize, until this time, how special it really is to have family around to hold and snuggle and show off our little man.
We took Mom & the boys to 7peaks, it's always a blast. So fun, in fact, that I hardly took any photos:
We also took the boys to the Splash Pad while Mom was here to help out. And of course the splash pad fun always ends with time at the park:
Mom had come with some fun activities for the boys. They had lots of coloring and art/craft time with her:
On Weston's birthday we took him to get ice cream in the morning. (his party was later that afternoon)
Jeff had a full week in the daytime and then tried to spend some evenings with us:
We went to this darling little park in Provo that the boys LOVED:
And of course, Mom tried to get in as much snuggling and cuddling with this little guy that she could:
Thanks for the WONDERFUL week, mom!!! We had so much fun!
