Happy 3rd Birthday Canon !

Canon turned 3 today! When it was time to blow out the candles, he got a little close blowing out the first one that his nose got a little too hot, which he didn't like. He ended up crying and not wanting to blow out the rest of the candles. Nothing a piece of cake wouldn't fix! His tears were gone by the time he took his first bite of his Spider Man cake. Note to self for next year, supervise child blowing out candles closer then in the past. We can't really say he is getting so big because he is kind of a light weight. We can say, we love that little guy!

Presents take two

We got back to our house and had more presents to open from Mema, Deda, Bill and Kayla. Everson and Canon were excited to do more present opening. They are obssessed with Star Wars and loved their new action figures and Bridger got some much needed teething toys and snack holders.

Merry Christmas

My whole family was together for Christmas this year. My parents house reached maximum capacity. Everson and Canon are at the age where opening presents is fun. The classic reaction of Everson opening a present with clothes in it, "this present is boring." This was followed by myself and Todd urging him to be thankful for clothes, which then got the response of, "thank you," in a very sad and slow tone. His reaction got better as the present opening commenced. Canon was happy opening any presents regardless of the contents. He liked the ripping of the wrapping paper and tearing open the boxes. Poor Bridger was napping while we were all upstairs opening presents. We don't think he minded at all. He got to open his presents once he was well rested. The boy preferred trying to eat the wrapping paper over playing with his presents of course. Of course Mom and Dad had so much yummy food to eat. We played, sat around, , took trips to Newport, ran into friends, and just enjoyed time together.

We love our family! Merry Christmas!

Happy Birthday to us Four!

Pictures to come!

Since my whole family was together for Christmas we thought we could celebrate birthdays that either had just passed or in the near future. So, we celebrated my nieces Kyrie (12/19), Canon (12/29), Jen (1/6), and my brother Mark's (1/6), birthday's. My very talented Aunt Margie made amazing cakes for each one of us. I did not get any pictures taken with my camera so I am waiting on getting pictures from those that took some with their cameras. It was fun to celebrate the birthday's all together, and especially eat some yummy cake. Canon was the champ of devouring their cake. If we couldn't find him, he was back at the table snitching some icing off his cake or gouging his finger in it to get another bite.

Gift Exchange

Another successful gift exchange party! We missed those that were traveling out of town and who don't live here. Good company, good food, and good memories.

Bath time fun!

What can I say, all three boys love playing in the bath!

Everson was making Bridger laugh when he laughed, it was too cute.

Ward Christmas Party

We decided to take out own Santa to our ward Christmas party. Nobody sat on his lap, but he sure got passed around and sat on other peoples laps.

Look at me

Bridger is now pulling himself up on everything so he can stand up and look around. He loves looking out the window at the people on walks and the cars driving by. We think he is pretty darn cute and he knows it.

Christmas Story

We love very rarely have our living room light on anymore since the tree lights are always on. Everson and Canon love sitting by the tree and reading a book. One of their favorites is, How the Grinch Stole Christmas. It was too cute of a moment not to take pictures of it.

This is one of my favorite pictures. The only thing that would make it better is if Bridger were sitting with them.

Fall leaves

Everson had fun helping me rake the leaves and then of course jump in them and throwing them in the air.

Bath time with the brothers

Bridger is at the point where he can sit in the bath tub without constantly being held so he wouldn't fall over. It was his first time staying in the bath tub and playing with his brothers. Bridger had so much fun and Everson and Canon thought it was pretty cool too.
