My big baby

I just took this picture on a random day because I thought his hair looked funny. When I got it on the computer with all the pictures of him as a baby and his little brother's pictures, I saw how old he is looking now. I can't believe he's almost two!



(I'm still trying to teach him two so he can say how old he will be, but he likes six better. Maybe he'll just be six instead.)

Christmas

Our Christmas this year was great, besides the fact that Eric had to work so much. The boys got all kinds of new clothes, books, and toys, and Eric and I got some games and movies. It was fun having mom and Brianne here also and I know they had fun playing with William and getting to see Luke.

Here are some pictures of the day.

Wide awake baby!

Even though the lighting is terrible on this picture, I had to post it because it's such a funny face.

Some other pictures of new baby Luke...

What William Did

These pictures speak for themselves.

Peter Pan

William was Peter Pan for Halloween this year (even though some people thought he was Robin Hood). I made his costume with fleece and felt and it's a good thing the weather was nice or no one would have seen his costume. Here are some pics of Peter playing with Batman and Robin.

New Pajamas

Ok so he's actually had them for a while, I'm just now getting around to posting. Cute, huh? The pirate ship is glow in the dark. And his cousins have the same ones by coincidence.

The New Dance

Will loves to dance any time he can hear music and recently, his favorite dance has changed to this....

(He used to bounce up and down or stomp from right to left, but I don't have any videos of that and he always dances this new way now.)

Look what we did all day saturday

It all started on wednesday, when I went out to the garage to get something and locked myself and William out of the house for a couple hours until Eric got home. We used that time to clean out a lot of the garage and organize the stuff in there. Saturday, we went to home depot and bought some shelves to finish the job and actually parked both our cars in there at the same time! Yay!

Also, if no one noticed, we got a new car and traded in our FJ Cruiser. We loved it, but it was costing too much money so now we have an Infiniti I35 that we both love.

Pumpkin Patchin

Eric had to pick the biggest pumpkin he could find...

...and of course he had to go waaaay out in the patch before he found the right one.



William got to have the biggest one he could pick up so he tried this one...



...and this one...


...but ended up with this one.

All three of us at the patch. Brianne, I don't want any comments about my big fat belly.

We went to the Utah State Fair on opening day, which was thursday, so we could show Wills some farm animals. He got a kick out of petting them and now he loves to look at their pictures in his book. They had this fun display were kids could do things you would do on a farm like plant seeds and dig up the vegetables, pick up eggs, brush a sheep, and ride a tractor. He loved it and it was cute!

Cousins!

Please excuse the bedhead, it was early.

Giving Kisses

My sister Amanda stopped at our house on the way to North Carolina a couple days ago and we got some cute pictures of the cousins. William loved Abby and couldn't stop giving her kisses, and I think she was pretty enthralled with him.

Peek!

William and I had lazy day today and lounged around all day watching movies and Seinfeld. His new thing is he likes to play with pillows and gets really posessive of them, so out of the four throw pillows that we have, he needed three of them and I only got one. He was playing peek a boo with them and I had to get some pictures... sorry some are blurry.

Explanation for no posts

The reason I haven't posted at all in the past two months is because I lost my memory card reader during our move and had no way to get my pictures on the website. I finally bought another one and I am working on catching up now, so make sure to look at a few of the old posts. I'll have more later, and I'll put pictures on of the house. Maybe tomorrow.

Also I moved my music player to right here at the top to make it easy for anyone who wants to stop the music, in case you don't like my choices. And for the record, these choices were really Eric's. Anyone who knows me would know that I would pick hip-hop songs but Eric didn't think that was appropriate for a family blog. Whatever.

Can you guess which one came from Toyota's website and which one we took?

No cheating, now!

Family Reunion

This is where William was most of the time... playing in the dirt

Almost the whole family in our new shirts

William's new friend Kallie
We missed the ride from the 4 wheeler so Eric had to pull the train for Wills

The last night we stayed by ourselves and it was one of the most fun
