Four years ago today...

We got married!

I must say this last year was my favorite.. but I'm sure they will just keep getting better and better!

All Grown Up!

Okay not really.

But he did just turn ONE... how did that happen so fast?

This has been the best year,

I have loved every last second that I have spent with Baylor!

I love him so so so so much!

{A couple hours after he was born.}



{2 weeks old}

I took Baylor to the playgroup at the park. He loves to climb!

We had a 'small' birthday party for him in the evening. With my family and Logan's family being in the same town though.. there is no such thing as a small party. Our home was filled to the max. That's okay though, we love it! It is so great to live close to family and to spend these special times with them. (We wish you could be here James'!)

We love you SPRING!

It amazes me how much better life gets when Spring rolls around. I hate to say it but it's true!!!!!!!! Here are some Highlights from the last little while...

Dinners outside! This is our favorite!!!!!

Girls Just Wanna Have Fun!

I was lucky to host a baby shower for one of my very best friends, Natalie! Her daughter Jane born March 13th (Four days late..) I cannot believe just how cute she is!! She has a head full of blonde hair and she is so sweet and well tempered. Natalie and her husband live in Denver so I don't see her very often- so of course it was awesome to be able to still throw her a shower! Natalie invited lots of our friends from High School that I hadn't seen in years. It was so much fun to see everyone it was like a mini reunion.

Natalie and I have millions of memories together. We went to high school together and we were on dance team together. We were always doing crazy spontaneous things. Anytime one of us wanted to convince the other to do something.. like skip class, jump off a bridge, take a road trip to Seattle or the Beach in the middle of the night or start of food fight.. (For example) we would say "Come on, GIRLS JUST WANNA HAVE FUN" and that would get us everytime...

Now we have both entered into the stage in our lives that we always dreamed about- MOTHERHOOD! Thanks for all the memories Natalie.. and heres to MANY MANY MORE! Friends Forever!!!

Easter!

On the Saturday before Easter I tagged along to Karen Hill's Big Easter Egg hunt. It was a lot of fun for the kids. I couldn't beleive how many people were there.. and how many eggs those kids found!

Heidi, Callie, Evelyn, Lindsi, Cody, Baylor and Me!

Baylor with his Cousin Cohen.

Easter Sunday- It was so fun to buy an Easter Basket for Baylor!!!!

Oh Sunny Day

The weather was gorgeous the Sunday after we got back from our trip. It felt soooo good! Hopefully we have more days like that SOON...

Baylor stayed with my parents while we went on our trip. Which by the way was very nice.. (Thanks again Mom and Dad..) I slept better on the cruise then I have in the last year or so!!!! HOWEVER- we were very anxious and excited to get Baylor back in our arms!!!! We both really really missed him! (Of course)

Baylor knows how to walk now... so he is wigglier then EVER! All he wants to do is MOVE. Out of about five tries.. this is the best picture I got with him.

On Nathan's birthday we took Baylor into "Callie's Salon" for a much needed hair cut. It was a very traumatic experience for him. Somehow Callie still managed to do it but let me tell you it was CRAZY!!! The picture on the left is the before. Now his hair is not as "Mohawkish" Thanks Callie!!!!
