Discovery Center

One rainy Friday afternoon, about a month ago, we decided to take Landon to the Discovery Center. This proved to be a great event! There are tons of things for kids to get into and play with. Landon had a blast moving from station to station.

Easter

Easter Morning Chris decided that he wanted to dye some eggs. He did an awesome job!

Here is Landon trying to help him put stickers on the eggs. It worked okay till Landon tried to eat a sticker!

Landon was very happy about his Easter basket. He didn't even care about the candy. It was all about the toys!




Today was Landon's first official day in Nursery. He lasted the whole time. He was sad when Chris dropped him off, but he got over that. If you can't tell the bunny is his hand. I thought that was adorable!

That afternoon we had an egg hunt at my parents. Landon got the hang of it after a while. Maybe next year he will get more eggs which means more candy for me!

I hope this does not embarass my husband, but I thought it was too cute not to share. Chris is so thoughtful and creative. He never ceases to amaze me! So being pregnant has really taken a toll on my digestive system. At my last appointment with my Midwife she had plenty of suggesions to help solve this problem. My wonderful husband took excellent notes! On Easter morning Chris told me to find my basket. This being one of his favorite family traditions. So I searched with no success and my excitement building cause I love candy! He gave me a hint and I knew right away it was in the dryer. I opened the dryer to this: 1 bottle of Plum Smart Juice, Fig Newtons, dried apricots, 1 box of Metamucil Crackers, and peanut butter cups. I was very surprised to say the least and I had to laugh. I thought it was so sweet that he put my needs before my wants!! Candy would not have helped me even though I LOVE IT!! Thank you so much Chris you definitely made it memorable!!

Me and My Boys

On Saturday we decided to take some family pictures with the help of Sarah(my neighbor)! In turn I took family pictures for them. It was a beautiful day and we were experimenting with Sarah's new camera. I think she did a pretty good job! I thought it was time to get a family picture before our family gets even bigger to mark the milestones! As most of you know we found out a couple of weeks ago that we are having another little boy. We could not be happier! This little boy will be very special and we just ask that you keep him in your prayers! Thank you for all of your support and concern. It has provided Chris and I great comfort!!

Chuck E. Cheese

Here are some pictures from Jordan's Birthday at Chuckie Cheese. Landon loved riding all the kiddie rides!
I thought this was cute!! There is Aunt LeAnne in the background!!
I'm a big boy now!





Trip to Utah

So several weeks ago we made a trip out to Utah to visit family. We had a blast! Landon loved playing with his cousin Brennley. They got along really well and I am pretty sure he really misses her!
I thought this was adorable of Brennley helping Landon eat his veggies!
We also went to Temple Square and visited the Church sites!

We really loved spending time with family! Thanks to Pat and Shala for hosting us. Pat makes the best smoothie ever and Shala is the cutest Mom ever!

Our Sweet Little Boy

Landon is growing so fast. It makes me sad. He is quite the handful. He loves to climb and stays busy all day. It amazes me the energy he has. He does not totally understand that he will have a new sibling, but he knows where the baby is and points to my belly when asked. He is says a handful of words like: please, dada, momma, thank you, bye-bye, hot, hat, bath. Well you get the idea. I really love all the phases that kids go through. I am trying to enjoy each moment and I thank Heavenly Father for the opportunity to be a MOM!

He loves hats!
This is our neighbor, Brady's, 4-wheeler. Landon loved it. He figured out pretty quickly how to push the button and go!

My Best Friend

I felt I needed to say a few things about my wonderful husband! On Valentine's we will celebrate 4 years since our first date!! Life is absolutely better with Chris in it. He is the best husband, father, and friend a girl could ask for. He is patient and kind. He is supportive and forever helpful! I could go on and on. Mostly I just want to tell him thank you. Thank you for all that you do for our family. I have been so sick lately with the pregnancy and other sickness and he never stops. He goes to work and comes home and works. He has been a lifesaver and I want to say thank you. So thank you, thank you, thank you! I love ya! You are amazing!
