Utah trip

Here is Paige at 4 months. She weighs 15 pounds 4 ounces (80%) and is 25 1/2 inches long (90%) and her head circumference is 16 1/4. I love how happy she has become. She loves to smile all the time.
We put her in her bouncer because she loves to jump all day long.
When we went to Utah we were able to have fireworks because they are legal up there. Parker thought they were so cool.
My aunt was getting her landscaping done in her backyard so they had big piles of dirt dumped and the boys had such a good time playing on it. I don't think Parker has ever done so many boy things. Every night before he went to bed he HAD to take a bath. There was no choice because he was just covered in dirt like every boy loves to be.
We got to go to the Dinosaur museum while we were up in Ogden. They have huge statues of the dinosaurs all over the park and we got to walk around and see them. My mom and sister were with us for the trip. We had so much fun seeing everyone.




We got to pan for gold at the park.







Parker got to ride a horse for the first time.






Here is my Mom and Grandma with Paige, Parker and I.
I cut Parkers hair the other week and he likes to have it spiked up. He calls it his crazy hair.

Happenings

We finally moved Paige into her room a week or so ago and we finally finished putting it together. I would still love to paint it, but all in good time.




Paige always seems to fall asleep with Steve.

We went to Jeepers last week to get out of the sun. Parker had so much fun. I always forget how much Parker sweats when he plays hard. Just reminds me what a boy he is.


We went over to our good friend Ethan's house a couple weeks ago and as we were getting ready to leave Ashleigh and I found Ethan and Parker pretending to be Mr. Potato heads in the mirror.


We got to go to a mini family reunion on Steve's side of the family over Memorial day weekend. We went to Chino Valley, AZ. Steve spent some of his childhood growing up there and now his Great Uncle lives there. It was fun for Parker to see some farm animals like chickens and mules. They also got to go on a small hike.



I had to put this picture in to show how cute Paige's hair is.

injury

Last week Parker hit his head and we had to go to urgent care. He had to get 2 staples put in. Here is his before picture, the staples after they came out and the after picture.

Our life lately

Parker got to be in a dance recital that a girl in our ward did for some of the kids. It was pretty much all girls except him and his friend Ethan. They got to be Buzz Lightyears since they both had the costume.

We haven't gotten a double stroller yet, but Steve figured out a way so that both of our kids could ride in the stroller. If you look closely you can see Parker is underneath the car seat. There is just enough room between the carseat and the stroller for him to fit without being squished.

Here is Parker and his friend Ethan. They are only about a month apart. Below is Paige and Ellie, Ethan's little sister. Paige and Ellie are only 6 days apart. We are so lucky to have such great friends.

I was taking Paige's two month pictures and Parker wanted to have his taken too.
