Bodie's Room
Here you go mom! I have been waiting and waiting for Bodie's backordered bedding to arrive and it finally has! I still have a bit more work to do and accessories to get, but we are loving his room! I love that I have nine months to think about exactly how I want it and then see it all come together. It isn't perfect, but we are getting there!
CUTE Boys
I am just feeling pretty lucky these days. My boys spoil me. Bodie is a wonderful little baby and Daxton is just fully of yummy hugs and kisses. Here are a few silly pics for our far away family.
Old Man
Yup, it's true. Landon is OLD.... he turned the ripe old age of 30 yesterday! I know, I am not far behind, but I am kinda glad he reached the age before I do! Hehe.
He has been wishing and hoping and dreaming of a fine shotgun so with the help of family we were able to grant his wish! Was he excited..... um yes, I think just a little.
AND, I threw him a suprise birthday party! I can't believe I actually pulled it off. We have such wonderful/awesome family and friends and had such a great time! He said that all he wanted to do on his 30th was go to dinner with me and have a chocolate cake, so we did..... with about 50 other people!
We are so glad that he's our dad. Cheers to being 30 honey! You are looking as fine as ever.

Little family pic. Daxton was so excited that it was daddy's birthday. I don't really think he gets it yet, but it was still a fun day for him because there were LOTS of balloons involved.

BUSY
Busy is the words that defines my life lately. We have had so much going on lately! I can't say that I haven't enjoyed every second though. All my pics are backwards... someday I will figure out this whole blogging thing! ha.
In High School there was a big group of girls that were all best buddies and have known eachother since we were little. The last one of the girls finally tied the knot this past weekend at Redfish Lake in Idaho. Some of the girls couldn't make it (we really missed you), but we had a blast with those that could! Emily made a beautiful bride and I am so happy for her.... and really super jealous because she is honeymooning in FIJI!
We had family and friends join us for Bodie's baby blessing over Labor Day weekend. Daxton loves all the attention so much and it was a really special blessing that Landon gave our little baby Bo.
These two kinda run the show around here! Daxton and Taylor are only three weeks apart and loved playing together. They don't get to see eachother all that often, but they are so cute together!
The cousins on the Sherwood side. Daxton was in HEAVEN all weekend with so many kids to play with. He was so loney (and naughty) after everybody left!
Bodie in his blessing duds. He is such a special little boy. He is super calm and mellow and we love him to bits and pieces.
He loves to sleep on his tummy. He is such a yummy, snuggly baby (for now) If he is anything like Daxton he will be anti-snuggles in no time at all. :)
This was only at about three weeks and has put on some serious chub since, but isn't he cute!!!
This is the bath time routine at our house! Before I had two kiddos I never thought about how you bathe everybody and yourself and have time for ANYTHING else in the day.... so we multi task! Bodie gets a splashes all little, but he is just gonna have to get used to the Daxton abuse.

Daxton LOVED throwing rocks in the lake. My dad made a comment that he was the most boyish boy he has been around in a long time! The kid is BUSY. He could throw rocks at nothing all day long and just think it was the greatest thing ever!

Thanks to all our family and friends who spent the weekend with us and helped make it even more special! I love my little family.

FINALLY! Bodie Landon Sherwood
Wow, I am so behind! Three weeks behind to be exact. Bodie is three weeks old today! Holy smokes.
Everything went really really really well with Bodie's birth. Daxton's birth... not so much so this time I was so grateful that everything went well. I started having contractions on Sunday night and went to bed with a few tylenol thinking that they would either go away or get stronger. Well, they dindn't go away and by about 12:30 I wasn't able to sleep through them anymore. I just rested as much as I could and by about 2:30 I woke Landon up to inform him that the baby was coming, but that I wanted to wait until morning to go to the hospital. Yes, I am crazy. So I got my bags packed, showered, and just relaxed (as much as possible!). Daxton woke up at about 6:30am (thankfully) and we rushed him to my sisters and off to the hospital. By this time I am DYING! We get there and they admit me right away, check me and I am already a 7. Good thing Daxton didn't sleep in! I am not sure I would have made it! They broke my water and Bodie was born at 11:18 on 8/1/11. He weighed in at exactly 7 pounds and 19.5 inches. He was perfect and right away I knew that he looked just like his daddy. I didn't get to hold Daxton right after I had him because of some complications, so this time I made sure I got to hold him and it was so wonderful and I think has helped me bond.
Daxton's first time meeting his baby brother. He wasn't sure that to think right at first, but warmed up really fast and now WILL NOT leave him alone! If Bodie makes a noise he is right there to inspect what is happening and loves to hold him and give him kisses, all.day.long! I hope they are best friends.
First family picture!
On our way home!
He really is a sweet and mellow little fellow. I could use a mellow one after Mr. Busy!

Matchy, matchy. Yes, I am the type of mom to match all their outifts..... I think it is so cute! And I will probably do it until they fight me.
We love our little Bo to pieces and are so glad and blessed to have him here safe and sound. He is already growing so fast and we are enjoying him so much..... now if I could just get a little more sleep. *YAWN*

4th of July
I am glad to finally get a little updated in the blogging business! Keep scrolling down because I have posted quite a bit in the past few days.
We had an AWESOME 4th of July. I mostly just love when family comes to visit and Landon gets an extra day off, it's a treat for sure. Landon's family came to visit this year because months ago we bought tickets for the Stadium of Fire. WOWWWWWWZERS. Brad Paisley did not dissapoint! What a great show, can't wait to go back again. Hopefully next time I won't be 9 months pregnant though, that made for some swollen feet, near heat stroke and a sore back!
I must brag a little. We just happen to live on the coolest street ever. Yes, we all live in tan stucco matching houses in SLC suburbia, but I happen to love it and my neighbors are so great. This year we had a big 4th of July street party and it was so fun! One neighbor in particular put in a lot of hard work, but it turned out great and the kids loved it.
Daxton ready for the big picnic and parade. What a handsome little fellow (it's all a show people)
I decorated his cozy coupe for the parade. He was pretty proud of it.
They had this CUTE train that the kids rode ALL day long. It was adorable!
Daxton's first tatoo. I know, we are such scandalous parents. He was obsessed with it and loved to show it off to everybody.
We bought the little guy some snappers or poppers or whatever you call them. He just ran around giggling and stomping on them until they were gone. I love how the most simple things can entertain him for hours!
We finished off the 4th with some smores in our fire pit (YUM) and watching fireworks from the top of our rock wall. It doesn't get better than that!
Shish
Daxton LOVES shish (fish), so when Landon got some tickets to the aquarium in SLC we knew we had to take Daxton right away. To say that he loved it is an understatement!!!! Shish, Shish Shish is ALLL I heard the rest of the day. He would run from one exhibit to the next and then back and forth and then move on. What a silly kid. They have a really cute kids play area that was his favorite. It had caves to crawl through and kid height fish tanks. They also have a new penquin display which is pretty cool and he loved that! It is so fun to watch him grown and learn and be so interested in things.
