The joys of being a parent

Well last night Ethan decided to scream all night and would not sleep... I think he may be getting a little cold. We decided that since he would not fall asleep I would have a little slumber party with him on the couch. Eventually back to sleep he went but unfortunately Dan and i did not wake up in time for our 8:30 ward so just went late. We then found out we will no longer be in that ward. Our boundaries are changing, the worst part about it all is we will know have church at 2:30. Yup you heard me 2:30. How horrible is that!?

Life

So life has been crazy these last four months. Ethan Daniel Watkins was born on April 1st at 8:06 pm. He weighed 8lbs. 6 ounces and was healthy. Life has definitely changed having a baby around but i am now getting the hang of things. He is a great blessing in our lives and is an amazing little boy. He is a good sleeper and is a very happy boy. Dan and I have been able to do so many fun things with him. He loves the water and swimming around in it (of course we hold him up).
Dan is still working at Qualtrics and currently loves his job there. I am staying home with Ethan but will start back at school this semester. Dan's mom is going to take care of Ethan for a few hours a week. We bought a house and moved in about a month after having Ethan. We now live in Lehi and although housing costs have definitely increased we love where we live. We have also been taking many vacations lately. This past weekend we went up to an awesome bed and breakfast in Midway for our 2 year anniversary. It was nice to get away and relax for a bit.
