Orin and Oreo

Orin loves Oreo! Oreo is not so sure about Orin.



Usually Oreo runs when Orin is near, but today Oreo was too tired and let Orin get him.

Orin just loves those ears! He is always reaching for them- just like his daddy does.

That poor kitty thinks its bad now...just wait till Orin can crawl or walk after him.

Christmas

We usually spend Christmas with both parents since they live only 20 min apart. This Christmas we spent at my parents house. Joel's parents were at his sister's house. Joel is excited that next year he gets to spend it with his parents. I am really excited that I don't have to make the Danish roll next year :)

Here is a picture of my Dad and Orin.

Scott and Becca came and brought their dogs Jasper and Henna. I thought Orin would be scared of them since they were so big. He loved them! He was so excited when ever they got close to him. Uncle Scott even let Orin ride one of them. We didn't get a picture of it though.

We open presents on Christmas Eve after dinner. This year we decided to open them early about three since Scott and Becca were only there for the day. We enjoyed it. Here is Uncle Scott and Orin by the tree trying to get Orin to open his present before dinner.

Here Orin is playing in his new outfit from Melanie and Ben. Thanks Mel and Ben!

Tasia and Orin trying to open Orin's present without looking too obvious. This was Orin's favorite spot at Grandma's house. He just would sit by the tree and be perfectly happy until you picked him up. He LOVES the tree! If he was upset and you put him in front of the tree he would calm down and laugh and smile at the tree. In this picture he is talking.



This is us Christmas morning. I was making breakfast (the Danish Roll) and Orin was getting very excited to go see what Santa had brought him.

Here is what Santa brought. He was very excited to play with his toys. His stocking was full of baby food. He had some baby yogurt for breakfast.



Here Orin is in his favorite spot by the tree.



This is us after church in our new church clothes from Santa. Orin was not enjoying the pictures he wanted to be by the tree and get out of his clothes.



This is my parents after church.

Orin and Grandma. Grandma is showing Orin that the snowman dances and sings. Orin loved that snowman.

This is him watching it dance and sing on the table. He kept getting closer to it.

We had a great Christmas! We hope everyone else enjoyed Christmas like we did. By the way sorry it took so long to post this Joel's computer is not working so every time I try to post something Joel is on my computer.

6 Months Old

Today Orin turns 6 months old! I can't believe my baby is half a year old! It still feels like yesterday I had him. I thought I would put some pictures up of our cute boy.

He has gotten so good at sitting up on his own. The only time he falls over is when kitty walks by and he over reaches to the side or looks too far to see where the kitty went. I am kind of nervous for kitty when Orin starts crawling.

In this picture he was doing his new favorite thing- putting his lips together and making a noise like a -well I can't explain it. but it is pretty funny.

Here he was telling me he was done with picture and sometimes I love the sad pictures. I love his little bottom lip sticking out. It is adorable. Also you can see how his hair is getting so long and is pretty curly.

Orin is now 28.75 inches long which is the 98% and 19 lbs 8 oz which is 75% and his head well don't know the measurement but is exactly 50% which is great! So far he is still really tall and solid. He kind of has a thing with ears. He pulls on his all the time and I was worried he had an earache. Nope! Just like his Dad - likes to play with ears. I actually have a picture of him grabbing his cousin Avery's ear. Avery didn't even mind that he was touching it. I think they will be good friends if she lets him rub her ears. Here it is.



Orin is loving his baths still. Today he sat up in the bath and did not want to sit down. His rubber ducky has become a good friend that I have taught him to catch him with his legs. He has now started to love when I do his hair sticking up (and then when it dries it curls). He gets to sit in front of the mirror and play with all the things in the bathroom which means he throws all of Dad's stuff in the sink.

Orin is still loving eating. He loves food so much that sometimes he doesn't want the bottle just food and wants to drink out of my cup. He will stare you down while you drink from a cup.

Here is another picture .

Sleeping

I don't know what it is about sleeping but Joel loves to take pictures if your asleep. Here are a few since we had Orin. I rarely take a picture of him sleeping but that might change as I notice how many there are of me.

Here Orin and I am the week we moved in to our new house...so tired.

I took this one because that kid is so dang cute!

Joel took this one. After becoming a mom I am tired a lot more then I used to be so tired I don't even realize that the kitty takes naps on my back while I am sleeping.

This was one night I couldn't get Orin to sleep upstairs and Joel was up playing games so we fell asleep watching dad play games.

Grandpa Jubeck while rocking Orin- looks like Orin isn't the only one being put to sleep.

Orin and Joel after a long night of being up because of an earache.

This is Orin and me during conference. So tired.....

Orin and Joel at the family reunion. Joel is just pretending but they sure are cute together.

Orin and me after watching an episode of bones.

My Little Monkey

Orin was a monkey. Here are some pictures.

In this picture he is eating his banana (which is his toothbrush)

Another picture of the banana. His gums have been hurting so that brush feels nice on them and massages them.

He was just sitting on the couch being so good.

Here is a picture of his cute little tail and puffy bum.

Here Orin is with Aunt Becky (my sister).

We only went to my brother Shawn's house for Halloween. They gave him a sweet bag with candy in it for Joel and I and some licorice for Orin. By the way he loves licorice.
