Congratulations Johnny!

Congratulations are in order for Johnny this week! He graduated officially from Paramedic school last Friday! He was in one of only two classes in seventeen semesters, where everyone passed! He starts on Saturday with Eagle Mountain Fire Department and I am just so proud of him and all the hard work he has done!

This is Johnny with his course coordinator Berry. He was the great guy that helped Johnny into the program and has been so helpful all the way through!

After the graduation Johnny's dad took us out to breakfast at IHOP. Jack was hungry and there aren't that many convenient places to nurse at those restaurants. I used some wipes to disinfect the floor and sat to nurse him there. He must of had an air bubble because a few minutes later he threw up all over the stall. I was to get out of the way mostly but I had to go tell one of the dishwashers that my baby had thrown up everywhere. We had to change him at our booth and give him a sponge bath. Oh parenthood is so fun sometimes!

Jack has been sick in the past couple days. He had a sore throat and no one ever warned me how not fun those are in babies! He would start nursing, but as soon as he swallowed he would just cry and scream! He was so hungry but he didn't want to eat! He is doing a lot better this morning and ate for almost twenty minutes to make up for that past couple days.

Jack is becoming so fun! He is rolling over and talking all the time. When he was crying he kept saying making the sound "ma". It did make me feel somewhat good when he kept saying "mamamamama" even though I know he had no idea what it meant! He is grabbing for toys, laughing, and just engaging more and more. He loves watching other kids and is trying to figure out how to play with them.

My friend Michelle came to Salt Lake this past weekend and brought her 10 month old son Austin. It was so fun to see her and I had never seen Austin so it was great to meet him too. Kelley drove up from Lehi and we had such a fun visit. The little boys looked at each other and were entertained momentarily. It's crazy being all grown up with kids and stuff! Life changes so quickly!

Here are some extra pictures from the past couple days:

We LOVE cuddling after bath time!
