Sadly byu blue :( :(

Out with the old... In with the new!!
Explorer...you were good to us for many years but we most definitely will not miss:

• Your constantly blinking check engine light
• The shaking and shuttering when you were idling at a stoplight
• The many months that all of the doors were broken...some you could only open from the inside, some from the outside
• Your lack of armrests on the drivers side and passenger side doors...oh wait don't forget the little screw that scratched my arm every time I tried to find somewhere to rest it
• Your heater...that would only work on defrost and AC that only worked on max Ac
• The daily stress of wondering whether Andy would make it home at night or if I was going to have to go rescue him from the side of the freeway

We love the new car! Only downside:

• BYU blue
  

You Know it's Time for Summer Vacation When...

You actually show up to school looking like this... And to make matters worse you didn't even notice until 2 HOURS LATER when a cute little girl asked you if it was crazy shoe day at school...um no apparently I've just lost my mind!!

Being 9 Months Old is Exhausting!!

9 months old already...

and it is exhausting!!

Paxton has grown up so much this month. We took him for his 9 month well check visit yesterday, he had actually lost a pound from being sick with allergies and another ear infection. He weighed in at 17 pounds 6 ounces (65%) and was 28 inches tall (50%)!

He has learned quite a few new skills:

His new favorite sound is B and all day long we hear BA BA BA BA

He loves to give real kisses to mom and fake kisses to dad...fake because they usually end up with Paxton biting his dad's cheeck

He has graduated to a big boy car seat but can't quite figure out it he likes it or not. He just can't seem to get the sleeping thing down

He still only army crawls and is more interested in walking than real crawling. He can walk super well when he is holding onto our fingers walking with us and today he made his first attempt at walking behind a walking toy

He is starting to stand up against the couch and in his crib but only when we put him there...luckily he can't get up on his own yet

We just can't get enough of this little guy!!

Happy Easter...A Little Late!!

We were lucky enough to be able to spend Easter/Conference weekend in Richfield with the family! It was a great weekend! The Easter bunny managed to find us at Grandma's house...Paxton got spoiled as usual!!So did his cousins!

Ami, Mana, Misi, and Ofeina
Paxton was so excited about his new movies and books...

Until we got home Sunday night and broke out his new toothbrush!! He loved it and chewed on it for about an hour! He loves to have his teeth brushed!

And finally....take a look at all of those teeth, so cute and crooked!

We just love this kid!
