Loving the sun!

Can't help but play outside when the weather is this nice! It feels like May- its only March. This rarely happens in good ol' Cache Valley,

So we took advantage!

Everybody do the Dinosaur

Grandma bought Parker a new Dinosaur toy that he can ride, or walk with.  As you can see, he was pretty dang excited about it.  Thansk Grandma A!

Chillin at the Laundromat!

So Tyler and I decided we needed to wash our bedspread.  We've had it for 3 years and it has yet to be washed (gross I know).  Since our washer was too small, we headed to the Laundromat to get the job done.  Little did we know, Parker found the washing machines extremely entertaining.  He kept laughing, and hitting the glass, and talking to the washer.  It was so exciting for him, and hilarious for us.  Gotta love little ones who find joy in the smallest things.

Total Body Transformation

Lets be honest here.  I've been trying to lose the marriage and post baby pounds for a long time, and have had little to no success.  Maybe I didn't have enough motivation, maybe I wasn't doing it right, or maybe I just didn't care enough.  Well, I was sick of it.  I reached a weight that I NEVER thought I would,  I refuse to take pictures of my body, and I am embarassed to see people I know in town.  So I decided to make a change.  I joined the Golds Gym 12 week total body transformation.  I made the committment, started the changes, and I am really excited to get going.  Its been 8 days and I've lost 8 pounds, so I am feeling great and loving the results already.  Hopefully everything is going well, and I can continue to lose weight and feel better.  Oh, and hopefully I win $1,300 dollars too :)

Christmas Vacation

We had a Fabulous Christmas.  It know its a little late to be posting about it, but we do what we can.

We spent Christmas Eve at my parents house playing games, eating treats, and enjoying some time with family. 

We spend Christmas day with the Andersons, and headed to the Hepworths that afternoon.  We were spoiled and couldn't have been more grateful for our generous family.

I had a birthday- turned 25, and felt old.  My wonderful family made me treats and came to our house to celebrate!  Tyler, Sarah, and Emily spent the afternoon making me red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting and chocolate letters!  So nice

 A few days later we headed to SLC for a night away to celebrate.  We Stayed at the Grand America in a HUGE suite with a massive balcony and big fancy bathtub.  It was amazing.  We ate a PF Changs, went ice skating, walked around temple square, and enjoyed being together.

 But, we missed our boy so we hurried home to this smiling face. Gotta love our man!

Parker eats big people food.



Parker eats the good stuff! 

Lets be honest, we eat out A LOT! Yes, we are working on eating more at home, but Parker is becoming quite accustomed to the local restaurants. Olive garden breadsticks and Texas roadhouse rolls are a fave, but he seems to find something the likes wherever he goes.

I think my son is pretty darn cute!

I think my Son is pretty cute... and apparently he thinks so too!  We'll put him in front of the mirror, he looks at the handsome baby looking back, and then he slowly leans in and lays one on...himself.  I've share this is a previous post, here is more evidence of the self love. 

Thanksgiving!

Thanksgiving 2011!

Turkey day was spent at our house this year.  The Hepworths (Sandy, Larry, Emily, and Stuart, - Sarah was in China)  came over and enjoyed the day with us.  The food was great and so was the company.  I even contributed by making some mini apple and pumpkin pies for the crew.  It was a great day spent with wonderful company.  Even Parker got in on the goods- he tried some mashed potatoes and sweet potatoes!  I don't think he liked it as much as we did.  Oh well- he can have his baby food instead.  Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
