And we have a buzz head..

Oh my goodness, as graham would say. My beautiful little boy has turned into a buzzed head big kid!! Jared has wanted to buzz Graham's hair forever, but I kept making up excuses. I finally gave in and I ant believe how different he looks! I think he looks like he is four years old, and it seems much darker. When he first came out with his new do, I was surprised and wondered, what did we do?! Now I'm used to it, and he looks cute with whatever hair he wants to wear:)

Children's museum

This was so fun! We met my mom, ash and the kids down at gateway discovery children's museum last week. I wasn't sure how graham would do or what the exhibits would be, but they were mostly all great for him. There were a few for older kids upstairs, but he was happy with the water, tractor, and ball area most of the time. Charlie was a trooper and jut watched on with a smile. She is such a happy, pleasant DAYTIMe baby. It was fun watching graham discover and interact. He and his cousin talon tend to pester each other and they even did pretty good. There were enough distractions I guess:) autumn player grocery store with him and he still says,"we need three pears" whenever we talk about the museum or the grocery store. We stopped for a treat on the way home, the kids had fallen asleep so I ate my ice cream and drank my diet coke on a peaceful, quiet drive home. Thanks for letting is tag along Ashley, and thanks grandma Vickie!!

Car wash

These pictures are priceless! It's so fun watching and rediscovering the world through the eyes of a child..especially my child:)

A family day

Jared surprised us the other day by coming home and taking us for an afternoon out. We've been so busy lately and out of normal routine, so this was such a great, nice surprise. We ate at pei Wei in bountiful which was good. I don't love Chinese but I'd go back to this place. It's like up scale Asian food. Graham had his first experience with chopsticks and did pretty good! I LoVe the new city creek center so we headed down there to walk around. We stopped at j crew to say hi to stace, told the kids not to touch anything!:) graham pooped in the potty that day, and let everyone in the store know it! We walked around temple square and really just had a great time strolling and being together as a family.

Sprinklers

Oh my goodness! Putting in a yard is not easy to say the least. If you are going to build make sure to have them put it in, or save a million dollars to do it yourself:) we have been working and working and working on this beast. Don't get me wrong it will be amazing and wonderful when it's done but I'm so over the dirt. Doug and Jared and papi have put in many hours into this sprinkling system. We loved the big lot just didn't quite envision this level of work in the beginning. BUT if all goes as planned we will have grass seed in the ground next week. Yahoo!!! Here are just a few pics to remember all the hours spent building this beautiful yard to come:)

Dimples!

This little girl has stolen our hearts! Her smiles can't help but make you smile,and she is always smiling. I always say she is a great baby until 1230 am. She is a night demon. She is not a great sleeper, and we've tries everything I swear. She naps great on the day and is always happy and very easy going. I love watching her grow and learn and play. She is getting quite vocal about things, things she wants or needs. She gets mad at graham and is starting to let him know about it. She is enjoying her baby food, and lOVES puffers! She is so long that she looks like all of her sleeves are too short. She rolls all over and loves her jump a roo!

Happy birthday papa!

Papas birthday was may 26th, but we are a little behind in blogging. I'm so excited about this new blogger app though that I'm going to be caught up real soon and it will be easy to keep on top of it! My mom and dad got these kitties for the grand kids, but ash and the kids were ready for some cats at their house so happily they went to live at b and Ashley's. There names are Oliver and Oscar. They come down and play once in awhile, and graham loves them right up! The sad thing is that he is a little allergic. The last time he played with them his eye got all swollen and red. Everyone came to papas and we had a great time celebrating. Autumn put on a lovely dance show for the family. We had my moms delicious German chocolate cake, which only comes around once a year on the big kahunas birthday:)
We sure love you dad!

Tractors

Testing, testing...testing out my new blogger app with this post. Graham is obsessed with tractors! He loves them. He sleeps with them, we look for them when we drive, we talk about them(while he is on the potty). We try to make tractor songs up, it's brutal. He gets so excited when he sees them or gets to ride with papa. He also knows the correct names for ALL I them,
