Easton's 4

Happy Birthday Easton!!

Today is my sweet Easton's birthday! It's crazy how time flies, it seems like yesterday that he was my little baby, and now he's 4! He is oh so excited to be four years old! This year has been fun, it's been so great to watch him learn and grow! It's been rough too, with his broken arm and having his tonsils out. But we are so excited for year number four! We love you Easton SO stinking much and hope you a very happy birthday! Here are some pictures of Easton up until now!

Baby Easton! Easton's 1!

Now he's 2...








Happy Third Birthday!

And today my little boy is 4! He is very excited to tell everyone that he is not a "baby kid" anymore, now he is a "big boy kid!"

Family Fun!

Family Picnic!
On Sunday after regional conference we went up the canyon for a family picnic! The weather was great, and we had a good time!

MMMM... yummy meaty!

Hayleigh and Auntie Amy!

Playing by the river, the water was cold, but it felt good!


Tada!
Jeff and I
To bad Hayleigh was sleeping, would've been a cute Christmas Card!

Beware...
This is what was waiting for me in the kitchen when I got out of the shower the other day! Taylor had the big toys in a row in the back and Easton's are the little group up front! When I asked them about it and what they were doing all I got was "beware!"

Daddy's girl!

Hayleigh loves to hear her daddy's voice, she is always all smiles when he's talking to her!


She loves her big brothers too! This is Easton showing her his toys!
And listening to Taylor!
Party Time!
We went to the park for Keagan's birthday party and the kids had a blast!
Brynn, Tay, Max, and Keagan!
Easton and His Princess Conli!
The Mommies Lisa, Summer, Me and Mary!
Doughnut time!!
Thanks for the invite, it was a fun time, although Hayleigh and Casen slept for the Party!
First Tooth!

So on Tuesday (September 9th) Taylor lost his very first tooth!
This is what it looked like, so after some convincing he gave mommy a go at pulling it out!
He was nervous so there were a few tears, and then he let me try. After I got a little grip on the tooth it popped right out! He went to feel how loose it was and when I asked him where it was (because it wasn't there, and he didn't even know that I'd pulled it) He just laughed! He said it didn't even hurt, and it wasn't worth the tears!
The tooth fairy came that night and he got 2 whole dollars, he was thrilled! I love how one little tooth missing makes him talk with a lisp! I remember talking different when I was missing teeth too! I just can't believe how fast they grow up. Please someone figure out how to slow it down, I don't want my babies to get big so fast! Although it is fun to see these fun things, and how happy it makes them!

Funny Easton...

Okay, So I just have a couple of funny things to share with you that Easton said today!

We went on a picnic with the Knight Family today, and while we were eating a heavy set woman walked past Easton and got a huge smile on her face and said Hi! Easton then told Sarah and Amy... "That 'Poofy' lady is CRAZY!" Sarah told him that she was just really nice, and Easton replied "I know she's nice, but she's crazy too."

Then tonight we decided to go for a walk, when I walked out into the carport Easton said to me "Wait, don't worry, I know what time it is". He then pulled a compass out of his pocket and looked at it, then said "It's 31" showing me the time on his "watch". Then he started on his way as he put the compass back in his pocket!

He is cute and so silly, I laughed about both of those silly things he said today and I didn't want to forget them, so there you have it!

All Smiles and Fun at our House!

Easton's First day of Preschool!
That's right, my baby started preschool on Tuesday! I guess he's not technically my baby anymore, but he has been for so long. Anyway, he was so very excited! He told me in the car the night before... "Mom, I'm not a baby kid anymore. Now I am a big boy kid!" So very proud of himself for growing up!
Taylor was a great big brother, I woke up to the two of them singing their ABC's. Taylor said he needed to practice. Then Tay went on and on about all the fun things Easton would get to do in preschool! He even pulled up his preschool program from the end of last year to show Easton all the fun songs he would learn, to which Tay sang along and Easton tried to follow!
Easton and the proud mama!
On the way to school I told Easton he would make lots of new friends, and he was so happy. He told me that Mrs. Heaps would be his friend too! When we got there I walked him in and then told him I was going, and I'd be back to get him in a little while. He said "Yep, okay bye mom!" over his shoulder!
Here he is starting his first project!

He loved his first day, and I'm so glad!

Daddy's Softball Game!

That night we decided to go and watch Jeff play softball!

This is the kids way of watching the game, they run on the bleachers!
Aunt Tiffy came too! Gotta love an extra helper!
The awesome player!
Hayleigh didn't see much of the game!!
The kids favorite part of the ballpark, the treats!
Giving daddy five after the game! They won! GO DADDY!!


Haircut Fun!
So if you didn't notice already I chopped off all my hair! I've been wanting to since before I was prego with Hayleigh, but knowing the chubby roundness of my cheeks was coming, I decided to wait until after I had her! So last Wednesday, Kelly Kelly came over to cut it for me! Here is the very attractive before picture!
BEFORE...
And eleven inches later...

AFTER!!

I'm loving it, it's SO much fun! I feel a ton lighter! Thanks Kelly so much for cutting it for me, and yes you are still aloud to come over!



OwLz GaMe!!

Last night we decided to go to the Owlz baseball game. It was dollar night, so tickets, hot dogs, drinks and popcorn were all just one dollar each! Plus every fan got a free bobble head! So we dropped Hayleigh off at my moms and headed off for a cheap fun family activity!
The boys with Hootz!

Enjoying yummy Dippin' Dots!













Eating hot dogs!

We left before it was over because it was a school night and got late. We had fun though, I even caught a tee shirt out of the tee shirt cannon!

The family with Hootz!


Smile Time!
It is SO, SO much fun when your baby starts to smile and coo at you! Hayleigh started smiling about a week and a half ago, and I love it every time her little eyes light up and she gets a big smile on her face! She smiles all the time at the sound of mine, Jeff's, and the boys voices! It makes my face light up too! She's so cute and I have been trying to capture it on camera for a week and haven't got a good shot until today!











Sometimes it's just one little corner of her mouth and others she just full on grins! I LOVE IT! Can you tell I'm the oh so proud mommy! But come on, how can you not love that face?!
