Halloweenie

Ready for another Halloween post gushing about how darling the kids were in their costumes?OK!!!

I didn't know if Daxton would catch on to the whole Halloween thing this year, but he did..... QUICKLY, especially when all he had to do was hold out his bucket and people would give him candy! But boy howdy, we have a lot of candy now... especially suckers, Daxtons candy of choice. He was quite the little tiger. We have been practicing his growl for months now, but do you think he growled for one single person? NO. He clams up around people. :)

Our street had a little party and it included hayrides for all the little kiddies. Ella and Maddie were able to come and they had a blast!




Ready to trick or treat for the first time!!!!







We also had a ward trunk or treat. Daxton is a tiger, Bodie is a monkey, I am a zebra, and Landon was the zoo keeper. I figure I probably only have a few good years where I can dress my family up in "themes" before the boys start begging to be superheros, so I am going to make the most of it!




Cutest little monkey I have ever seen!!!







In their Halloweenie jammies. Cute, cute boys.







What do you do with all your kids' candy??? Let them eat it.... you eat it.... hide it.... throw it away?????


Three Months

Ummmm, where in the heck did October go and how in the world is my BABY already 3 months old????!!!!!! Kinda freaking out here! We were in Hawaii for the first two weeks of October and since we have been back we have been super busy so I feel like October never existed. Good thing I have this little munchkin to help me keep track of time.

Yup, three months old and his cheeks are getting chubbier every single day! He has had a nasty ear infection in both ears, but is starting to return to his happy little self. Unfortunately, sleeping thrrough the night has been compropised. SAD. Hopefully he will get back to his old ways soon. I am not feeding him, but he waking up a couple of times. He is starting to babble a lot and blow bubbles! Cutie patootie.... it looks like he wants to eat you in this picture!





Look, I can lift up my big noggin! He is starting to roll from front to back a lot. Of course it is not on purpose, but still I am a proud momma.










We just adore our little monkey! Happy three months little guy!

2 Months

Well, he is almost three months now that I am finally getting around to this post! OOPS. He just had his 2 months check up so I have a good excuse for putting it off. :) I absolutely ADORE this little boy. I thought that Daxton was a good baby, and he was, but Bodie.... he is really a good baby! He is so easy going and just loves any attention at all. I feel mom guilt sometimes because Daxton takes up so much time and attention that Bodie gets the shaft a lot. He is such a special little guy and I almost can't remember what life was like without him. We all just love him to pieces.

Bodie weighed in at a whopping 13 lbs at his 2 months checkup! WHAT!??? He is such a chunk. My doctor said that they like babies to double their weight by 4 months... well don't worry, we about have that covered already! He is a great eater so I am not suprised. AND... (don't be jealous moms) but since about two months he has been sleeping all the way through the night. And not like 8 hours... like almost 12!!! I know.... told you he was awesome. Daxton took a lot of sweat and tears to sleep through the night, so this is a welcome suprise. I guess Bodie's vice is naps... he is not the greatest napper. Oh well, that just takes time.

Bodie is such a happy little guy. He will smile for just about anyone.


Daxton is obsessed with Bo-ee (that's how he says it), or he calls him Guy a lot. I think because I call him Little Guy. He usually walks up to him and says "Hi Guy!!!" It's cute. Daxton is always trying to lay next to him and read him books, make him smile, hold him, or just play with him. Daxton has been the best big brother and never once (honestly) been mean or cruel to him. I know that soon enough they will be fighting over everything, but they are so sweet right now! This picture is for all of you who thought they looked alike.... yeah, they so don't, not at all!




This was Bodie's first smile!!! Don't you just wanna kiss him! I love his little bald head ( he is starting to sprout some hair finally) , little brown eyes, and yummy lips!


Love you little guy!

Hawaii, Trip #3

Landon has been doing a lot of work for the Hawaii office (Layton Construction). Sometimes he has to go for weeks at a time and they are nice enough to let me come with! He works normal hours, but we squeeze in all we can in the evenings and weekends. We had so much fun just relaxing and being outside when everybody at home was getting snowed on! No complaining here. Last time we went we saw all of the touristy sights and such so this time we just hung out at the beach and the pool. OK by me... I even have a nasty October sunburn to prove it!



Our hotel had fun activites for kids, including Talapia fishing. Here is Daxton's FIRST fish!! How cute is that! He was so proud, and so was dad.



Landon is a trooper and tried paddle boarding for the first time. He has a tendency to catch onto things pretty quickly and this was no exception! He did awesome and had lots of fun. I didn't try... I have turned into a wussy, plus I watched some of Shark Week not long ago..... yikes!












Bodie is awesome. Seriously, sweet as sugar and the best baby on the planet. He is such a trooper and spend MOST of his days in the carseat. I have been making it up to him by holding him LOTS and LOTS.







This was the view from our condo! I know, right!!!! It was beautiful.


Regardless of how amazing Hawaii is, it is ALWAYS good to be home!

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.



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.



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.
