First Haircut, Lake Powell

Today I became an RD (Registered Dietitian)! I passed the test. Such a huge weight lifted off my shoulders. I cant believe that all of my schooling, since I was in preschool, came down to this test. I am just glad that it is over with and I am done with school for forever. Well until Camrik gets in school at least.

Camrik had his first haircut. I did not want to cut it, but Jordan said that his hair was way too long. So I put him is his "pink" bumbo (because we are borrowing it from a friend, thanks Linzi) and gave him a new haircut. He didn't mind it at all.
Such a good boy!
We gave him the cut right before church and here is his new cut with in his cute church outfit. He looks so old, not like a baby at all. Like a little man.
He is too precious.

Every year, the company Jordan works for, Platinum, throws a year end party. It is usually a nice dinner at a nice place and you get prizes and things. Well this year it was sooo much better. They took us all to Lake Powell. They rented a camp ground and provided all the food, boats, boating things, and floating things to jump on. They did such a good job and it was a lot of fun. I had food poisoning though the day we got there so for the whole weekend I was puking and other not so great things. That was not fun. Especially camping, but I felt good enough during the day that we went boating and took a wave runner out.

We took Camrik on the boat and he loved it! I am not exaggerating. He was smiling the whole time and I think he liked the life jacket and how it snuggled him tight. He is such a good baby.

Jordan and some of the guys went cliff jumping. This was before they found out it is illegal.

Me and my sweet baby. He looks so cute in this picture and look at the landscape. Gorgeous.

Jordan and Camrik all warm in the tent one morning. Father like son.

Camrik always sleeps in his crib from 7:00pm till 7:00am. He sleeps all through the night and has been doing this since he was 3 1/2 months. In the mornings after 7 if we still want to sleep he will fall back to sleep in bed with us once he has eaten. This is what he looks like when he does. He loved Camping.

Camrik is 5 months old now. He is thinking about crawling and tries to but cant quite figure it out yet. I gave his a taste of rice cereal one day and he loved it. He kept opening his mouth for more. It was adorable. I cant get enough of my baby and he is growing way to fast.

Baby Blessing and New Job!

Well a lot has been happening since we have been back. We really are still trying to settle in and get back to the swing of things. I finished my internship and take the RD exam on the 27th of this month. I have a lot of studying to do. I need to pass this test because I got a great job as a part time Dietitian. It is at Provo Canyon Behavioral Hospital. I love it and it is a great job. I get great pay plus full benefits at part time. This is when going to school finally pays off. It is great because I only work on the days Jordan can watch Camrik. Jordan and Camrik have so much fun together too.

Jordan and I went to the world record dodge ball game at Thanksgiving Point. Jordan said it was a lot of fun and it looked crazy. Camrik and I watched he was all bundled up.

In most of Camrik's pictures he has a scratch on his face. No matter how short I cut his nails he still manages to scratch himself.

Jordan blessed Camrik a couple of weeks ago. He gave an amazing blessing and Camrik was such a good boy. He looked so cute in his little outfit. He is sooo strong too. He can stand up on his own for a little and this was at 3 months old. Crazy! I love my boys.

Camrik is 4 months old now and I cant believe all the things he can do. He is sooo close to rolling from his back to his belly. He rolls from his belly all the time because he hates it. He Tries to sit up and it is funny because he looks like he is doing sit ups. He is such a great baby and I cant even imagine my life without him.

2 Month Photo shoot

Camrik is actually 3 months old now, but here are pictures from his 2 month photo shoot. We went to this antique store and got some cute pics.
He looks like a baby doll in the picture above. I love it.

We are back in Utah and loving it. I always miss my house so much. I have three weeks left in my internship and then I am done with school. I am so excited to take the RD exam and finally be a Registered Dietitian. I am going to post pics with Jordan and I in them soon. I just have so much more fun blogging about Camrik.

Smile!

Camrik is starting to smile! He had his first smile a couple of weeks ago, but now Jordan and I can get him to smile more often. Sometimes when I try to get him to smile he looks at me like I am crazy! He is getting so big and his hair is still growing. Jordan is so scared that it is going to fall out. He is such a sweet boy! These are some photos I took with him today.

I love the picture below. So alert!

Camrik's hair dries perfectly! I just towel dry it and it sticks straight up with a little curl.

I love it. (i want to put some hair gel in it sometime...)

We are so excited to come home!

Time is flying by

Camrik is now 7 weeks old and time is flying by so fast; he now weighs a little over 11 pounds. We will be back in Utah in 5 weeks. We are so excited to come home.
Camrik at 4 weeks old. I took this pic becuase it was going to be one of the last times he could wear this outfit.

This is Camrik at 6 weeks! His hair is getting so long and I love it. I took him to the doctor yesterday because he has had such a bad diaper rash that wont go away. Come to find out Camrik is lactose intolerant. This means that I cant have any milk products! This eliminates most of my diet. I love cheese, milk, and yogurt. It has only been one day and I am dying. I guess the acid in his stools are eating away at his little bum. I had to buy some cream for his bum to bind the acid that cost $55. He also has reflux so he is taking medication for that. He is such a tuff little boy because despite all of this he never cries about it. I hope he stops having problems now that I know what to do do help him. For the 4th of July I made t-shirts for Jordan and I with all the wives out here. It was fun decorating them. I was just glad that Jordan was a good sport and actually wore it. It sure did make for a cute picture. (I love that Camrik looks like he is pulling his hat off when he really didn't even know it was on his head)

Camrik was so adorable in his 4th of July outfit.

We went to a baseball game with the office and there were fireworks after. It was the perfect thing for the 4th of July. It was so hot at the game but Camrik found a nice position to keep himself cool.

We each got a baseball hat with our tickets. Jordan is wearing it, but his sun glasses are covering the emblem.

My little boy!

So I thought I would blog a lot more after the baby was borne but this has shown to not be true. Here are a couple of photos from Camrik's photo shoot. I would load more but they are taking forever. One of the wives out here has a nice camera and said she would take pictures for me. She has never done it before, but she did an amazing job! Thanks Brooke!!!

I have lots of cute photos to blog and things we have done. Gosh, hopefully I will get in a couple of good posts next week.

Camrik Charles Borchert is here!

On Friday June 3rd I went in to be induced. It was a hard decision, but Jordan and I finally felt good about being induced after praying and much consideration. This is me with my final pregnant belly. Right before I was induced Jordan and I went and saw the new X-men movie and got some dinner since I knew I wouldn't be eating for a while.

I got admitted around 9:00 pm and had a medicine called cervadil (?) placed on my cervix. It is supposed to stay on your cervix for 12 hours to soften the cervix. Below is me about an hour after is was put in. Anyways, about 4 hours later I was having tons of contractions and was in full labor. They took the medicine out and I was off! I got my epidural about 2 hours later because the contractions were hurting so bad. This is the part I was most scared for, but it didn't hurt at all. I was so relieved.

12 hours later I have birth to my beautiful baby boy Camrik at 6:50 pm. He was 7 pound 15 ounces, 19 1/2 inches long. It was actually scary for a bit, he was having a hard time coming out and when he did he have the cord wrapped around his neck twice and his body once. I was so glad that everything was okay.

Me with Camrik right after he was born. I was so happy and was all emotional and crying. It was an amazing experience.

My sweet baby!
I was so glad that Jordan was there. He was so supportive and I could not of done it without him. He actually got to pull the baby out and cut the cord. He said it was amazing. He is such a good dad.

I love my baby Camrik!!!!Jordan picked out Camrik's going home outfit. This is him dressing him for the first time.

It was so exciting to put him in his car seat and take him home. He has been such a sweetheart and a good baby. More posts of him yet to come.
