A Crockett Christmas!


All 7 grandkids (Evan, Reagan, KC, Janie, Gunnar, Krew, and Kase)




YAY a surger!

Leslie got Jon a hooded towel with his name just like the grandkids!

I love the look on Gunnar's face!

So handsome in his Christmas outfit
We had a great Christmas this year!  We spent the weekend with all of Chad's family.  Christmas Eve we did the Nativity with Grandma Crockett reciting the story from Luke by heart.  I guess I only got it on video without any pictures...dang.  After the Nativity the kids opened their Christmas jammies then heard jingle bells outside. They were so funny they all RAN to bed so that Santa would come and we didn't hear from them again.  We were the only ones who didn't sleep at Chad's parents but that's quite ok with us!  We went over at 6 and joined in for the fun.  The kids were all up and ready but we all had to wait for Evan who had to poop!  The kids were so cute and make is so fun.  Evan was more excited for his sticky hand and yo yo than his red bike.  After stockings we did the treasure hunt.  Each family had a treasure hunt to go on so it took awhile for all 6 to go.  Santa gave us a pizza stone and a cute measuring stick to put on the wall to measure Gunnar as he grows.  Then the madness began as everyone started grabbing presents and tearing them open.  I prefer to go one at a time so you can see what everyone gets but oh well.  I sat and watched everyone else open and then we opened ours.  Meanwhile Gunnar was crashed out on Grandma's bed!  Chad got me a sewing machine and a surger and I'm so excited!!  The possibilities are endless now!  I got Chad snowboard bindings and a ping pong table and he was pretty excited.  Now it just needs to snow so he can go snowboarding.  Gunnar got lots of toys and clothes and a bumbo that he's not quite ready for yet!  We had a wonderful Christmas and I can't wait till next year when Gunnar is a little bit bigger.  It just gets beter from here on out!

Yay we have internet!

Love his smiles!

We were in the Nativity for our Ward Christmas Party.  Gunnar made such a cute baby Jesus!



Family Room no more brick!

Gunnar's room no longer pink!  Still needs decorated and window treatments though!

This post is long overdue...we finally moved into our house!  We love it!  It took awhile to get internet and tv.  We are getting all settled in.  We still have some organizing to do but it's feeling more and more like home.  Gunnar man is doing good! He's huge now.  He weighed 12lb 3 oz at his 2 month check up.  Now he'll be 3 months on Sunday so he's probably well over 13 lbs!  I LOVE LOVE LOVE him!  I love being home with him and playing with him all day.  He is loving his little playmat and his favorite book is The Little Engine That Could.  He got that one from Dolly Parton herself!haha He gets one book a month until he's 5 from her.  When I read to him he talks and tries to get the pictures.  He's so cute and such a good baby.  He goes 8 hours at night between feedings and it's heavenly!  Sometimes he wakes up for his binky but he is doing better.  We are excited for Christmas with Chad's family.  We'll do another Christmas post soon! Right now Gunnar is needing my attention!

What a special day!


We blessed Gunnar on Sunday and it couldn't have been more perfect.  Chad gave him a beautiful blessing.  I sure do love my boys.  We had so much family there, thanks everyone for coming and supporting us!  Gunnar looked so handsome all dressed in white.  I am loving every minute of being a mom now that all the pain is gone!  Gunnar is so adorable.  He is starting to respond...sometimes!  He smiles but I don't think he does it on purpose yet!  I put him on his tummy yesterday for tummy time and he rolled over!  Yikes!  My 6 week old is NOT supposed to roll over yet.  I think his head just makes him off balance and so he rolls right over.  Makes tummy time kind of hard to do when he won't stay on his tummy.  He's growing way too fast.  I'm sure he's well over 10 lbs now.

1 month already!!

 I can't believe my Gunnar man is already 1 month old.  Although I am happy for my sake that the first month is behind me.  Nursing has been rough to say the least but I think I finally have it down.  Getting mastitis sure didn't help.  I don't think I've ever been so sick.  Other than that though having Gunnar here has been so much fun.  He has been such a good baby.  He usually goes 4-5 hrs at night which is sweet and he usually wakes up eats and goes right back to sleep.  Not quite sure why I still feel like a zombie in the morning!  I took him to his dr app today and he weighs 9lb8oz and is 21 1/2 in long.  He's in the 50% for both height and weight and has gained 2 lbs since we left the hospital.  I just can't get enough of him!!


Gunnar's 1st time to church!  I don't think he likes to get all dressed up! 
But man he looked stinkin cute even if his clothes are a bit too big.

1 month old today!


Gunnar definitely made a cute little calf!

We went to Cluff's Halloween party dressed up as cows cause well that's what I feel like these days! 
Right in the middle of this picture Gunnar had a huge explosion and ruined his cute cow costume. 





I sure love my boys!  Silly dad Gunnar is supposed to fall asleep first!


My sisters Heidi and Mary came from Utah to meet Gunnar.  Heidi's Bridger is 1 month older than Gunnar.  We got some cute pictures of them together.  Too bad they don't live closer.  It was so fun to have them here to visit.  Stacie came too for the weekend and so we were all together...well all the girls Aaron couldn't make it.  It was so nice having my sisters here to help.  Heidi and Mary were here when I got mastitis and it was a good thing.  I don't know what I would have done if I was here alone.  I seriously couldn't even hold Gunnar I was so sick.  Thanks for all your help guys you were a lifesaver!

For some reason I can't get the other pictures to work so that's it for now.  Time to finish dinner, eat, then feed Gunnar!
