My future is so bright....

I gotta wear shades.

WOW.

Delicious lunch
Pizza with the family
The best pizza in town, Este pizza in Sugarhouse

This is the latest and greatest word Deacon has learned. He said it yesterday when I opened his toy chest and he peered inside. He also said it when I was holding him singing him a song or two before I layed him in his crib he looked up at me and quietly said "Wow". I like to think he was reflecting on our awesome day complete with trip to the pool with Alfie and Annie, pizza with my family a great lunch of pb&j with homemade strawberry jam or maybe he was just thinking of all the fun he had just being with his mom today. I will be thinking of how much fun I had today as I drift off to sleep. WOW.

Best buddies

We could not get a picture of them all day so finally
I just had to scoop them up!

Getting ready for the pool

My Ball!
Alfie loving Duke

Annie and I are kindreds. We only met four years ago but we were meant to be. Our little guys were born just 6 weeks apart and the whole time we were pregnant we planned out their lives as best buds. We had a great day swimming and playing together. And even though Alfie snatched a ball out of Deacons hands and said "My ball" we still love him and he can come play any old time. Not to mention that I love some good Annie- Sophie chit chat.

In all his glory!

Believe it or not it is true, the boy walked! When I asked Curtis to take a video of it he said noone will care about this on your blog. He knows me too well, but prove him wrong! Tell me how much you care! Look how cute his wobbly steps are! I can not believe it.

SUMMER

S is for snow cones, homemade strawberry jam and of course swimming!

U is for unbelievable heat

M is for movies at the drive in and at the outdoor park

M is also for many a trip to Iceberg

E is for eating watermelon on the hammock

R is for raging games of aggravation with anyone who will play! Also for reading, I love the book club!

Lazy Summer

***Disclaimer***

Beware of mild nudity, also beware it will make you laugh.

We have been trying to be as lazy as possible this summer and spend lots of time outside. Last week we went swimming with Kris my sister in law and my niece Bailey. It was super hot outside and Deacon was extra tired when we got home so I put a fresh diaper on him and put him down for a nap in just a diaper and tee shirt since it was so hot. This is what I found when I checked on him:

The best part of it all was that he threw his diaper over the side of the crib. When he woke up I said "Deacon where is your diaper?" and he patted his bum to look for it! Classic.
