Happy Valentine's Day!!

I haven't made sugar cookies forever so I got bored and decided to make some today. It was actually quite fun. Jared even helped me and he did a really good job. We took a few to neighbors, but thats as far as we got. Sorry everyone who didn't get any. Next time I will make more and deliver them. Here is a picture of some of the cookies. Hope you all have a great Valentine's!!! Love you all. Remember to tell everyone that is special to you that you Love them today.

Its been a while....

Its been a while since I updated so just thought I would talk about what we have been up to lately.....which isn't much, but Haize is walking all over the place now. He has been walking for probably a month or so. It is so cute, but sad too when they start walking because it's like now he is a little boy not so much a baby anymore. With walking come lots of bangs and bruises we have found out. Just in the past week he has bonked his head on my friends coffee table and hit his ear and it is all bruised. It looks bad, but it doesn't seem to bother him. He also got scratched by a little puppy that was so happy to see him but it jumped up and scratched his eye lid and neck. Poor kid. Today he decided to head butt everything and came to me while I was sitting in the chair and he banged off my knee and fell to the ground and blood started flowing out of his mouth so I got to the bathroom and I think he cut that little peice of skin that hooks your lip to your gums. He cried for a minute but his bottle made it all better. Yes he still has his bottle and he loves it. I dont know when I will ever be able to take it away from him. He also likes his sippy though. :) He is the goofiest kid ever. He makes me and Jared laugh constantly. Tonight he was walking around with his blanket on his head, but we knew he would get hurt so we took it off, but then the crazy little guy decided he could just close his eyes and walk. Cracks me up. He is so fun and I dont know what we would do without him. We wouuld be so bored. He loves bananas and gets so excited if he knows your gettin him some. He is a good little eater and will eat pretty much anything. For lunch most the time he eats a sandwich. I just cut it up in little peices and he eats it right up. He loves bread just like his Dad and Grandpa Stink. He hates to get dressed or have his bum changed, but I think most kids are like that. I wonder why. You would think they would want a fresh bum. Lol! He is with me everyday and all day so when his Daddy comes home from work he gets so excited. They love to tease each other and Haize loves to be chased. Its so cute. He blows kisses, but I haven't got him to actually give kisses. He used to but not anymore. He absolutely loves music. He dances everytime he hears it or hums to music. Its the cutest thing ever. He also loves loves loves the phone. If he hears one he puts his hand to his ear like he is talking on the phone. I always let him call his Grandparents. He loves it and when he's on the phone he usually uses his growly voice and it sounds terrible over the phone and its so funny. Jared always lets people at work listen to him and they dont believe its Haize cause it sounds terrible. I tend my neice and nephew a few times a week and he loves to see other kids and they think he is so funny. They love to ask him yes or no questions to see what he will answer with his head shakes. Its pretty funny. Well I guess that will do for now.... haha. Hope you enjoyed reading about my funny little man.



Here are a few pics of Haize lately....

Christmas 2009

We had a great Christmas this year and I hope the rest of you did as well.
On Christmas Eve my mom always gave us something to do with bedtime, usually a pair of pajamas, but sometimes we also got a blanket or a pillow.... anyways so I like to do the same. Haize loves minky blankets so that is what he got was one of those and I had a friend put his name on it for him. He also got a pair of jammies to wear to bed, but he peed a little much that night so he had to get changed in the middle of the night and from then on he did'nt want to go to sleep. Its like he knew Santa was coming and was too excited. He ended up sleeping in our bed, which was a bad idea because then none of us got any sleep. He tossed and turned and hogged the bed all night. Then at 6am he was ready to get up and play, but Mom and Dad weren't ready so we just made him lay there until he went back to sleep. Then I woke up at 9am and made Dad and Haize get up to go see what Santa brought. We opened our presents and then went to my parents house for breakfast and opened some more presents. I love being with family on Christmas. I dont know what I'd do if they weren't around. Jareds parents were sad that we wouldn't come down to there place, but we still called them and chatted for a bit. Maybe sometime we can go there for Christmas. After my parents house we went home and chilled for a bit and then had a little nap. That evening we were invited to Jareds Aund Judy's house for dinner so we went there and had a great meal and then visited for a bit. All in all we had a pretty great time for Christmas. Here are a few pictures of Haize on Christmas Eve and Christmas morning.

Happy 1st Birthday Haize 11-7-09

I cannot believe it. My baby is 1. How did this happen? I remember the day I had him like it was yesterday. I could tell you every detail if you'd like but I won't. Even though I will cherish that day of my life forever!!!
He is the best thing that has ever happened to me and Jared. He is such a cutie and he always makes us smile. He can be a turd sometimes but we still love him. I didn't know that 1 yr olds had attitude like he has but they do! I think its pretty cute now, but I know in a few years it won't be so cute. LOL.
Some of his favorite things lately are he loves to stand up to things, sharing his food, wrestling with his dad, rocking at night with mom like always, growling of course... he has done that since the day he was born, crawling... yes he is finally crawling haha, being outside no matter how cold or hot it is, and the list could go on, but I think ive mentioned most of his favorite things.
I made a big mistake on his birthday. His party wasn't until 7pm so I was going to make sure he got 2 naps so he wouldn't be cranky. He took one nap pretty early in the day so I was happy about that, but then it got to be about 5pm and I wanted him to take one more so I made him take another one. By make I mean he didn't want to even though he was tired so I took him in my room and turned on Enya and I held him and swayed back and forth until he was out. And he was literally out. I had to wake him up at 6:15 so he would have enough time to wake up and get back to being happy and cheerful, but he so did not want to wake up. He was mad and cranky. I thought Oh great look what ive done. He was a little cranky when everyone got here but as the night went on he got Happier. Anyways.... :)
For his birthday we had all the family come to our house, and we learned that our house is too small for that many guests. It was pretty squishy, but we still had lots of fun. First we started off by letting him open his presents and he got bored after about 2 of them, but then he had help from his cousins and that made it a little more fun for him. He got wayyyyy to many presents thats for sure. I can't believe all the toys he got and now I have no where to put them, but he sure enjoys them. My front room just looks like a toy room is all. Everyone is asking what he is getting for Christmas and the answer is........... a TOY BOX!!! Something to put all these toys in. After opening all his presents we had cake. It was awesome. I ordered Haize a cake from Smiths because my sister in law let me in on a little secret.... they do a FREE cake for 1 year olds. Awesome! So Haize had his own cake and then I made strawberry shortcake for the rest of the party. It was so much fun watching Haize dig into his cake. He had alot of fun flipping it everywhere. He also likes to share his food so I let him feed me a little and yes I got a little frosting on my face. So cute though. Of course he then had to get in the rub and rinse off. After his quick rinse off him and his cousin Jericho played with all the new toys. The cutest was when Jericho pushed Haize on the train. We had a great turn out and Thanks to everyone for coming!
Happy Birthday Baby Boy!!!!

Happy Halloween

Hope you all had a fun and safe Halloween. This year was fun for me because I got to dress Haize up. I ordered his costume like over a month in advance because I was so excited. We started trick or treatin a bit early so that Haize wouldn't get onery. First we went to Jareds aunt Judy's house and visited for a bit then we headed on over to my parents. I had my mom come with me to take Haize over to my Aunt Karen and Uncle Steve's cause I had told them a while ago that I would make sure I came by. And of course Haize was tired and wouldn't growl or talk to them, but he was still cute in his little dragon costume. I did however manage to get some pretty cute pictures of him in his costume in some leaves at my parents house. We didn't go many places because all of my brothers and sisters kids come to my mom and dads so we just trick or treat each other there. All in all it was pretty fun.
Here are some pictures of our cute little Dragon.

Oct. 11, 2009 Happy 6th Anniversary to us

Jared and I have been married for 6 years now. I can't believe it has been that long. In some ways it feels like we have married forever, but in other ways it feels like it was yesterday we tied the knot. I love Jared so much and really appreciate all he does for me and now of course Haize. He is the best dad ever. This year for our anniversary we snuck away and went to Park City and left Haize with my sister. Thanks Jennifer and family. It was so nice to get away for a night even though leaving Haize for the first time overnight was a little sad for me, but he did pretty good and I didn't worry too much. He was in good hands. Jared and I had never been to the alpine slides so that is what we did and we also did the newer alpine coaster. It was a blast and definately worth the money to do both. We had a lot of fun and I laughed the whole time on the coaster because I was in front of the sled and Jared had the brake and kept breaking. I was getting mad at him because I like to go fast but he had to pee and I was hurting him by sittin in front of him cause his legs couldnt fit in the sled right with me in front of him. Poor guy. That evening I let Jared decide where to go eat and of course that was a dumb idea. He chose Sushi. I ordered chicken of course and it was actually pretty good, but way to expensive for what it was. Jared was disappointed as well. The rolls were about as big around as his thumb. Big rip off. I cant remember the name of the place but it was something like Yuki Sariaki or something like that. Dont go there. Anyways here are a few pictures of our little weekend. I didnt get many but hope you enjoy.

11 Months

I cannot even believe that my baby boy is already 11 months old and that in a month the little guy will be 1 year old. Where did time go? It feels like just yesterday I had him. I can remember every second of the day I gave birth to him.
Its kind of sad that he is already that old but at the same time, he is so fun. I love every minute being with him. He is what makes me smile and keeps me going everyday and if im having a bad day all I have to do is look at him and im better.
He has learned to army crawl. Its the cutest thing ever. It makes me laugh cause from behind it kind of looks like he is swimming. So cute. Oh and believe me he is plenty fast and can go anywhere he wants to go.
He has been a little stinker too. He likes to play with things he shouldn't and when you tell him no he looks at you with a smurky smile and turns his head really fast and keeps doing it as if its funny. Not so funny to me though. Not sure how to break him of this but hopefully soon he will learn to listen.
He loves to eat treats especially suckers they are his favorite. He gets so happy when he see's one.
He now has 8 teeth and they are so cute, but they make him look like not such a baby anymore. He has the cutest smile ever.
He still growls. Its pretty funny to get reactions from people that arent expecting it. He has growled from day one.
Pretty much we love him so much and we are so happy we have him. Not sure what I would do with out him. Not sure what Jared would do either. Haize looks forward to seeing his daddy come home from work and if someone comes through the door he thinks its his dad and if its not sometimes he gets a little dissapointed. I love seeing the two of them play. Jared is a great dad!
Well another month has past too quickly, but like always Haize makes it fun.
