Sweet?

Kason has been a clingy nightmare the past few days.... which is driving me bonkers! How am I supposed to get ANYTHING done when he cries everytime I put him down!?!?! Guess the house will stay a mess, the Christmas tree will stay in a box, and the stockings will NOT be hung by the chimney with care.....

Luckily I captured his sweetness the other day in this pic. I look at it to remind myself how my sweet baby boy is supposed to look..... (occupied and quiet!)

BTW, is it bad that I considered leaving him in the car for just one minute while I ran into the grocery store yesterday?!? I didn't, but it was mighty tempting!!! :)

New Milestone

This little man decided to pull himself up to standing today! In the bathtub!!! When I whooped and clapped my hands he got scared, fell flat on his little naked butt and started crying. Poor guy. But he tried it again two seconds later, so he obviously wasn't that traumatized.

I LOVE this kid!!!

BTW- isn't this retro jacket SUPER cute?

Good Times in AZ

Damien, Kason and I went on our first family vacation to Arizona a few weeks ago. We had a blast!

We had a great time visiting with my dad (Papa Bob):

And my dad's best friend, Carmella:

Papa Bob and Kason LOVED each other:

We also made it to Damien's best friend's son's first birthday (can someone check my grammar and punctuation on that one?!?)!

Hopefully Cayd and Kason will be teammates, just like their daddies!

The party was at a fantastic train park. It even had an adorable train that gave rides:

K had a great time. Turns out he's pretty popular with the ladies. Watch out, Alexa!

On our last day in AZ we were able to stop by the Mesa Temple and visitor's center. We all LOVED the visitor's center- even Kason was VERY reverent.

And we spent more time with Cayd.

We were even able to make a football practice with Jonnie and Damien's old high school coach:

Overall, it was an amazing trip and we were so happy to show off our little man!
