Sunny Day Fun

Our day started with a walk, but it got a little to hot so it was cut short.  We decided to take Keir to the little water park they have down by the St. George library.  Sad to say, Parno didn't show up. Keir asked where he was and I said, "I don't know."  Keir's reply, "He's probably still getting his swimsuit on."

Big Momma decided to get in on a little water action!  Yeah buddy.

After the water action we went home to make dinner because we had some special peeps, the Baird family (minus Momma Baird who is totally awesome and ran the Boston Marathon today.  She kicks butt like that. we missed her dearly) coming over for dinner.  They came, we ate, had family night then we all went fishing at Ivins reservoir I believe is what it's called.  Here are some pics. (I didn't post pics of the Baird family they like to keep a low profile.) 

Before he discovered the mud.

Sexy getting his fishing on.

After he discovered the mud.  Which he played in the whole 2 hours or so we were there.

My Friend Parno

So it's official, Keir has a imaginary friend named Parno. He said he lives by the temple and his mom has a baby in her belly like his mommy does.  He is going to walk with his mommy and come play at our house.  I have just been informed that "Parno is getting his swimsuit on mom."  We are going swimming and apparently since Avery can't come Parno is going to come.  Wish us luck!!

So my good buddy Annika was kind enough to give me this awesome Moses Basket.  But lets face it the fabric is not the cutest so... 

my mom was kind enough to re-cover it for me in this cute more stylish fabric.  Thanks Annika and MOM!!  Love it. 

Fun at the Park

John found this crazy weird park.  There are no normal swings the stuff is all crazy like this that John is on.  It spins you around and around.  It is a fun park different from the others.

John was bouncing us like crazy mad on this.  Poor Keir was holding on for dear life.  I was too.  I was also hoping to induce labor.  No luck.

Happy Easter

Keir doing his Easter egg hunt.  This was after church and of course I forgot to take a picture of him looking so grown up and big in his new Easter outfit.

The Easter Bunny sure did do a good job at hiding those eggs.  He wanted to make sure it was a challenge to get them.

Our little doobie family.

Yes Emily is really almost 6 months pregnant but you won't know that especially with me standing next to her.  If you're wondering, No my baby did not eat her baby.  (P.S. she's even pushing out in this picture.  I am serious.) 

It was a super fabulous day (April 7th) and Keir wanted to run through his sprinkler so we, yes we as in Keir and I strapped on our swimsuits and basked in the glorious sun!  Yes in our front yard for everyone to see how ghetto fabulous we really are! 

Monkey Bump

I was in the kitchen and John was in the office and somewhere between was poor little Keir.  All the sudden we hear a crash, bang, and cry.  When I got to him John was holding him.  He said wanted his blue blankie so I got it and when he looked up I almost started crying with him, startled by the massive monkey bump protruding from his forehead.  He said he ran into the door knob of the spare bedroom.

After icing it.  All is SWELL.  (Ha ha get it.) 

Sorry Nakole I had to still this off your blog cause I Love it!!  When I saw it all the sudden I felt so awesome and tough.  I try to look at it every day as a reminder of how cool I really am it makes the days when I feel like a beached whale washed up on shore and stuck (aka in the middle of the night when you need to go pee and all you need is that extra shove to get you off the bed and all you want to do is punch your husband just because he's getting a good night's sleep.)  Or the times when you have to bend over and all the sudden your face is turning blue because you forgot to squat instead and your air supply is being cut off. Or how 'bout when you feel like your suffocating because it hit 70 degrees outside and all the sudden you can't see your ankles or get your ring off because you've swelled like a balloon.  Just all the little perks of being prego.  This is a just great reminder of how tough and sexy I still am.  Minus the sexy part.  Thanks Nakole for the reminder I needed it.

Holy Cows

So the other night I walked by my living room window when something caught my eye.  Something LARGE and black I look out and it's a flipping smelly cow not just one but many.  Right in our backyard.  Well there's a barbwire fence separating us. That didn't separate them very well though cause they were able to eat my weeds.  That's a plus.  But what in the world.  They're just crapping all over which creates flies, big flies and then they come in the house.  Oh well Keir enjoyed watching them.  I haven't seen them today yet.  I tried to take a pic but both my camera's were dead.

Look-A-Like Babies???

This is Seth and Emmy.  I am super excited because they just found out that they are having their first little one and it's a Girl.  I am so excited because it's John's lil sis and my lil bro and we are really close with them (even though we live miles away.) I was hoping that we'd have babies around the same time so that they'd be BFF's.  So when I found out I was prego I was literally praying she would be.  Seth don't be mad.  My prayers were answered.  We are both having Girls and they'll be close in age and I am also excited to see if they will LOOK-A-LIKE.  Who knows??  Congrats Seth and Emmy. 

Yesterday we went to the Sand Dunes up Snow Canyon to have some fun with the little one!

Keir getting a feel for the sand.  

John's fabulous sand turtle.

John jumping over Keir. 

John and Keir jumping together.  What great family fun it was!!  I am taking photography classes so I just sat back and took pictures and enjoyed the two goofballs.

Happy Very Late Valentines!!

Keir and I made sugar cookies for our friends.  Yes we only have 4 friends, and yes one of them is my cousin but still a friend!  We are not good at making new friends it looks like cause for being here a year we should have more.  Dang it!

I was willing to make this sweet boy whatever heart shaped breakfast he wanted.  He comes in eating a sugar cookie.  Valentines it is, but no go on the sugar cookie for breakfast.  He choose a peanut butter sandwich that he wouldn't even let me make into a heart shape.

John's sad :( breakfast that I tried to make.

What John's sad :( breakfast was suppose to look like.  Not even close!  I can't believe I just reveled the horrible job I did.

Yummy BBQ Cracker!

So a couple of weeks ago John and I BBQ'd some Chicken and Keir wanted to BBQ as well.  I turn around and he has a Ritz cracker skewered  wanting to BBQ it.  John helped him and I was the fortunate one he made it for.  Don't you worry he made sure I ate the whole thing.  I could except for the burnt part which he was insisting that I  eat it. I tried.  It was a good way for me to bribe him to try what we were eating. 

Super Bowl Party!

For the SUPER BOWL PARTY we went to of course Charlie and Annika's. Us wonderful ladies are slaving away in the Kitchen and this is what the boys are doing...

Enjoying themselves on the couch! 

Kara, Baby B and Ave.

Annika looking fabulous slaving away!

"Oh, what the foods done.  Finally!"  

I am not sure what to say about this, but to tell the truth this is what happens at Ave's.  And I am pretty sure he didn't pee his pants but again not sure what to say????

Cute little Ave. 

Petroglyphs

On Saturday we went for a hike because it was a BEAUTIFUL day.  John found out from our nice neighbor about this place that is like 5 minutes driving distance from our house that has petroglyphs. It was sure fun!  Please note these pictures were taken with John's phone.

I Love how Keir is looking at John in this pic.  So tender.  You can just tell how much he loves his daddy and thinks he's the coolest!

Keir would jump over the little dips. (I think there's an actual name for the dips, but I don't know.) He'd say, "Watch me." and then he'd get like a 1/2 inch of the ground and thud hit it. Knees barely bending.  So cute. 

Keir found this stick and said, "look at my stick.  It's so fantastic!"

"AAHHH"  Soaking up the sun baby!
