Worst Day Ever

So, after an enjoyable lunch on Monday, while walking from the restaurant to our beautiful car, we see this.....



Can you believe it???

Someone hit our car and didn't even have the common courtesy to leave a note! And this is no small scratch or dent, this is serious stuff! What makes this story even crazier is that a couple weeks ago, Scott was sitting in the drive-thru line at Hogi Yogi and someone, leaving a nearby store, backed up out of their parking spot and smashed into the side of our car. So, just days after fixing that dent, then this happens! What is this world coming to? Apparently, people now have eyes in the back of their heads and also believe that they no longer have to take responsibility for anything they do, as long as nobody sees them.
On a lighter, happier note, Cameron is fabulous. He is 10 1/2 weeks old now and is so perfect. He went to his 2 month check-up and is growing so fast! He weighs 13 lbs 10 oz and is 26 in long! He is off the charts in is height. He got his shots, which I think is horrible to give to a cute baby, but think it's better than having one of the awful diseases they prevent. He did amazing! I left the room because I cried when he got his Hep B shot at 2 weeks; thought Scott would do a better job. Well, just standing there listening to him cry from outside the door made me cry! What a baby I am!!! It was heart-breaking. I thought for sure he would be fussy the next couple days and possibly have a fever like they warn you...but he didn't! He was his normal self! We are so blessed to have such a healthy, happy baby. He is always smiling, cooing, eating and pooping! He sleeps like a champ, from 9 pm to 6:30 am with no interruptions, unless he unwraps himself (easy fix though!).

We love him so much and think he is the most precious little boy in the world!

Random Thoughts

This one is for you Stephani : )

Why do people back up their car without looking?
How does a baby know to poop right when it's time to leave?
What do people that live in the big houses on the hill do for a living?
Why do people spell the name Sara with an H?
Is an 8 hour work day really necessary?
Why can't a stay-at-home mom really just sit around and eat bon bons? (and not gain the pounds? It would be so easy!)
How come men can do 5 sit ups a day and get a 6 pack, while a women does 100 and gains weight?
Is the Green Giant considered a super hero?
Can a pregnant women drive in the carpool lane?
Why do you park on a driveway and drive on a parkway?
What is Beekeeper listed under in the yellow pages?
Why can't money grow on trees?

Here are a couple pictures of the little one. He is doing fantastic! He is growing up so quickly and is a blast to be around. He is smiling all the time and is such a morning person like his mommy.
He is 2 months now! I am anxious to see how much he is going to weigh at his doctors appointment next week!

Blessing Day

This past Wednesday, the 17th, we had the opportunity to bless Cameron. Everything turned out really nicely and Cameron looked so handsome in the outfit Grandma Rosemary bought for him. Afterward, we all visited and had refreshments. I've just got to give a shout out again to those strawberries and that amazing dip! I couldn't stopping eating! Anyway, it made for a really enjoyable evening with everybody.
We really appreciate those who were able to come. I know it was a hard week for many. So, thank you to all who sacrificed to be there and support us. We were also happy that Grandma Rosemary was able to fly in from Michigan for the week. It was fun for her to meet and get to spend time with Cameron. He had a blast with Grandma!

Here is a picture of us with Cam. FYI, I'm holding the back of his head, which is making his ears stick out. Sara wanted to make sure everybody knew that his ears don't naturally stick out like that! She's funny.



This is one of our favorite pictures! He was just so dang cute sitting there in his car seat with his bow tie. What a stud!

Baby Blessing Date Change!

As some of you may know, we were originally planning to bless Cameron in our ward on Sunday, September 14th. However, we have run into a few snags with family coming in or going out of town that weekend. Long story short, in order to ensure that everybody we want to be there can make it, we have decided to hold the blessing on the evening of Wednesday, September 17th. It will be at 7:00 pm at the same location (1250 South Main St. in Bountiful). Refreshments will be served afterward and everybody can visit and get caught up on things. It should make for an enjoyable night. Sorry for the last minute change, but we hope to see you all there!

Falling in love

Here are some more pictures of our little Cameron. I fall in love with him more and more each day.

Being a mom is harder than I thought but is getting easier everyday. Scott has done a fantastic job at being a dad from day 1 and I have learned so much from him. I am so grateful to have a fabulous husband that spends so much time taking care of his family. We love you Scott!

Cameron is doing great! He went to his 2 week check up last week and is gaining so much weight!
He was 9 lbs 5 oz and 22 1/2 inches.
I am so glad he is healthy and happy and going to be a little chubbers!!

Everybody, Meet Cameron!




Wow, this weekend was definitely one of the most incredible experiences of my life. In a matter of hours, our lives have completely changed. Sara and I are now the proud parents of an amazing, healthy baby boy. Cameron Scott Talbot was born Saturday, August 2, 2008 at 2:06 am. He weighed 9 pounds, 2 ounces and measured 22 inches long. The process of getting him here was long and stressful, but absolutely worth it.

I really want to get some pictures on here for family and friends to see, so I'll be short and let Sara fill you in on the details later. Just know that all is well with both baby and mom. We are now home and are excited to spend some time together before I have to go back to work. So, enjoy the photos.

It's Time!

We just got word from the hospital that they are finally ready for us! We have to be there at 11:00 am, which is about 40 minutes from now. We're not sure how soon things will play out, but we will keep everybody posted. We really are way over on our text messages for this month and are close to going over on minutes, so please let us contact you. Sara has been bombarded with text messages and calls all week and is going nuts!
Anyway, thank you all for your support. We will update you all as soon as we can!
