Our little cutie can make quite a mess. I have to admit though... it's the best kind of mess to clean up on most days.

More good news? Of course! Braedyn has two little teeth pokin' through. He's had the one for a month now and just last night we noticed the second one starting to poke up. Luckily, he doesn't seem to get too upset when they work their way to the surface. YAY!!! As soon as they're really obvious... I'll take pictures. You know me.

Spring? Seriously!

Spring is really here... Honest!

You can tell by the Robyn's flocking to our back yard.

So... what's with the snow?

Well... It's merely six hours later, the snow is already melting and the Robyn still came for a visit.

This is right outside our kitchen window

sitting on our deck.

Vroom! VROOM!!!

Our Ward had a fun family activity last night. PINEWOOD DERBY! It was lots of fun. I think Dave was more excited for the race... as Braedyn just wanted to eat the car.

Dirty Job...

I think I'll send this video in with our application for DIRTY JOBS.

Holy Messness!

Remember When...

I happened to be sorting through Braedyn's Photos... which I do from time to time and came across a few that brought a little tear to my eye.

This was Braedyn't first trip to Bear Lake last Summer... He was just a little two months old. It was such a Sunny Warm Day and the water was warm... to us anyway. I am looking forward to going back this summer when Braedyn is actually a little more aware of his surroundings. You never know, he may even be walking by then.

Lucky and Charming....

Yesterday was St. Paddy's and some of us dressed for the occasion.

Sometimes ... you just know!!!

Sometimes you just know when two people will grow up to be best friends. Once his hand was placed so gently on her forehead, we knew what's in their future.

Braedyn and Larkin met for the first time this weekend and the friendship began. I'm sure if he could have he would have given her a big sloppy kiss. In fact, he may have slobbered on her just a little.... so he's half way there.

I can't wait to see this friendship grow.

.. And the friendship begins!

Is he really that big?

Changed and Changing....

Our little Family is experiencing something that to this point has been indescribable.... The Pure JOY of a little boy that literally brightens our lives. I make sure that my camera is never far away so that I can snap a shot whenever the urge strikes. I'm pretty sure that I am well into the thousandssssss of photos... (Thank Goodness for Digital Photography and Storage)

We are always commenting on the drastic changes in our lives and the best one of all weighs 17 lbs. and drools.

The Sick and Afflicted

The result of being sick...

1. Fever
2. Weepy Eye
3. Runny Nose
4. Cough due to Drainage
5. Waking up every two hours due to sinus stuffiness
6. After time and patience with a sick little boy...

Mom and Dad take patient to Doctor.
7. Delicious Bubble Gum flavored Amoxicillin

Prescribed.

If you have a Weak Stomach...

Turn away!!!

While the mucus flowed... the Kleenex wiped and wiped and wiped!!! Luckily the runny nose has subsided, but today we found out that Braedyn has an ear infection. He's been grabbing his ear for the last couple of days and his low-grade fever returned. So... off to Garden City to see the Doctor. Happily the Doc said that his lungs sound VERY good and with RSV spreading like wildfire, it made us happy to hear. (Though I didn't expect it anyway)

One of our favorite things to do is make Braedyn Laugh.

It has to be the best sound in the world!!!!

Christmas in March???

I feel as though I've neglected this site just a little bit.

Two holidays have come and gone and you wouldn't even

have guessed. So... let's fill you in a little bit.

Christmas was great!!! It was so much fun being a family

this year. It was such a thrill celebrating with Braedyn and

spoiling him just a little bit. I think I took a thousand pictures!!!

Here are a few....

Spoiled much?

Braedyn loved his Exersaucer from the start!!!

The cutest little Santa in the WORLD!!!!

On Christmas Eve, our little town of Randolph invited Santa Claus
and Mrs. Claus to drop by.
