Spring Garden

Bryan and I love to work out in our garden. It brings us so much joy to watch our flowers and vegetables grow. Alexis is also becoming an avid gardener. She loves to plant seeds with her daddy, water flowers with mommy and also help pull weeds and maybe some good plants on occasion. I am so happy to see her enjoy the garden. I hope that she keeps that feeling with her her whole life. Here are some pictures of the beautiful flowers that are blooming in our yard right now. Enjoy, I know I do!

First Birthday

Sawyer could not wait any longer to open his gifts. Those bright shiny bags were to appealing. He had a wonderful 1st birthday. Family and friends were there to celebrate and he got many fun presents. I also made him his first birthday cake. This was my first attempt at making a cake that was shaped like an animal. I decided that his birthday would be giraffe themed. I did a pretty good job if I say so myself. I had a lot of fun making it and everyone sure did love eating it.

Sawyer was not sure what to do at first. But after he got that first bite he was really into it. Can't beleive that he has been in our family for a year now. What a great addition he was. I am so lucky to have two beautiful and loving children. Thanks to everyone that made Sawyer's birthday a great success.

Busy Month of March

We have done a lot of fun things this month. First of all, Sawyer is all over the place. He loves to play downstairs in the play kitchen. He can pull himself up almost on everything. When you ask him to smile he will give you the cutest little smile ever. It makes me laugh every time. Alexis and I went to Disney on Ice with Aunt Cuc and Michelle. Alexis had the time of her life. She did not take her eyes off the ice while the characters were dancing and skating. I can't wait until I can take her again. We all had a great time. Alexis went to the dentist and got her teeth cleaned. She loves the dentist and she always does everything they tell her to do. What a brave girl. We have had a great month of March and can't wait for April. Sawyer will be turning 1 (wow, I can't believe that is already happening). We will also be taking a trip to Moab with Grandma Loretta and friends. Can't wait to make some more great memories.

All Smiles

Little Sawyer will be 10 months on Saturday. It is hard to believe that he is almost 1. Sometimes it breaks my heart to see him grow up so fast. I will miss the times that he loves to snuggle with me. But I am also filled with joy to watch him learn new things each day. He went to the doctors today for his Well Visit and he weighs only 21 lbs, and I say only because I thought that he weighed a lot more than that. He is average on his weight and above average in his height. I hope that it stays that way. He was so happy tonight that I had to get some pictures of his very contagious smiles. I love when he smiles it is the best thing in the whole world. Look at those cute two front teeth!!! He is also getting really good at twisting his tongue. In one of the pictures you can see him trying to do it. What a funny little man.

Hot Dog Twists

Making hot dog twists with the girls. They had lots of fun brushing butter on the bread and sprinkling cheese on top. They turned out really good and the girls ate them up so fast. I will try this one again.

Rummage Through the Books

Sawyer and Aleixs love to play together. They love to get a basket of books and rummage through it together. They can do this for the longest time. Sawyer will try to steal the books that Alexis looks at and if he can't have it he gets really mad. It is so fun to watch them play together.

Dancing Queen

Alexis loves to go to dance class. She is a dancing queen. She is learning tap, ballet and tumbling. She does it once a week at the Little Gym in Draper. I love to watch her dance and have fun with other little friends. She is learning so much and having fun at the same time. They teach her so many neat ways to dance and move her body.
