Having a Baby Leaves No Time for Blogging

Hello Friends,

So some of you have emailed us as to why we have not kept our word about posting updates every Sunday.  There is only one explanation for this.  Aaron!  Yes, we know that it is kinda shady blaming our flakyness on our almost eight week old, but hey we only state the facts and he can't defend himself.

Actually, things have just been crazy around here.  Let's start with what happendon Sept. 27.  Aaron received his first Priesthood blessing from Josh.   He also officially received his name in the Church as Aaron Ryan Insalaco.  Thanks to Audrey Munton, Aaron's Great Grandmother, we have some of the blessing below.

"...Aaron, Heavenly Father loves you and blesses you to live in the gospel.  He blesses you to be guided by the spirit.  Prepare at a young age to spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  Make choices to be righteous to go on a mission.  Be happy and comforted that you are loved and appreciated.  We bless you to find a perfect match to be sealed for time and all eternity.  You will be called to special callings and accept them.  All these blessings Heavenly Father wishes to bestow upon you..."

One of the coolest parts about that weekend was the fact that so much family was in town to support our family.  It was also really awesome to see Aaron meet (well be held by) most of our family like the following:


Grandma (Josh's Mom)



Aunt Kimi



Great Grandma Munton



Great Grand Papa Munton



Cousin Bella- They kinda look like Brother and Sister.  Probably the cutest pic.



Grandpa (Christina's Step Dad)



Great Uncle Mark and Great Uncle Jamie



Great Grandma Anderson



Papa



Aunt Nina (Not related by blood, but family all the same)

Basically on the day of the blessing, everyone was playing a game of pass the baby.  You may notice that Mommy and Daddy are not in any of these pics.  Aaron get's us all the time.  He was ready for an upgrade.

After that, family went home and we thought that things were going to settle down.  They did for about two days.  The next week, Christina had to spend some time in the Emergency room due to an allergic reaction.  We still do not know what caused it, but are happy to report that she is fine. 

Aaron had his "two month" check-up at 6 weeks.  He weighed in at 10lbs 11 oz and is now 23 in.  After that, things really did slow down.

On Tuesday, he will be eight weeks old.  Time has gone by so fast.  It seems like everyday he is growing and developing.  The thing that melts the heart is when he smiles.  He seems to really respond to us now.  In fact, the other day, we noticed that he was following Josh as Josh walked around the room.  So cool. 

Well, that's about it for right now.  Below are some more fun pics.  Enjoy.  See ya next week.  (Hopefully : ) )


Aaron really like his bathtime.  How do you like the censorship?


Ah, Aaron sleeping.  Almost the best thing ever.


Aaron is revolting against Mommy.  He is so tough.  Roar.


Nice Pic of Christina and Aunt Briana (Aaron is like a baby Kangaroo)
