Field Trip!!!!

Today Ellie went on a fieldtrip to the Taylorsville Firestation! It was soooo fun. I was one of the volunteer drivers so I got to go too. She thought she was so cool in the Fireman Uniform. Too cute!
These are some of the kids in Ellie's class. Some of them hadn't made it to the firestation when we took the picture. But her two best friends are Annastasia(who is on the left next to Ellie) and Jayra( who is on the bottom in the long sleeve pink jacket). They have soooo much fun together.
So we learned the difference between a fire truck and a fire engine. You can tell it's a fire truck if it has the long white latter on the top. Fire enginges don't have latters. Never knew that.
The latter can extend to 150 ft. high. The fireman climbed to the top and waved. ( CRAZY!!!) He looked like a peanut he was so high up.


We learned all about the kind of tools firemen need to save people. The kids loved the HUGE scissors. ( The jaws of life) They didin't know you could buy scissors that could cut through cars.

We learned all about fire safety and STOP, DROP AND ROLL! The kids couldn't wait to demonstrate that one.


So fireman Mike came down from the latter and then he got hit right in the face with the fire extinguisher!

So they have 2 min. to put their gear in when they here the alarm to go to a fire. The kids were totally freaked out when he was in full uniform. They backed up and wouldn't go near him.










What A Mess!!!

So we got these little baby cookies and they make THE BIGGEST mess ever! He was going at for like a half hour. It was so cute. When I finally had to take it away from him ( because it was just mush) he got soooo mad!



So all of the sudden he started sucking his thumb to fall asleep. And when i'm feeding him baby food, after every bite he sticks his thumb in his mouth and starts sucking it.




Growing Up So Fast

So my little man started sitting up a few weeks ago. I can't belive it! Now he loves to sit up and watch everything that's going on!
Today we went to the Farmers Market and it was the first time that Danny has ever been on grass! It was so funny! He couldn't figure it out, but he loved it!
Mommy's big boy!

My Ellie Belly Is All Grown Up!

So Ellie started pre-school and dance this week! I can't believe she is already going to school. She was a little nervous at first. She didn't want us to leave but she sat down next to a little girl and started talking to her and she was fine. They gave her a backpack and she had to go and find her number and hang it up.
This is the little girl she sat with and i guess they became friends pretty quickly.

She was so ready to just burst through the doors at the end of the day. But the teachers made her wait until they knew we were her parents. We had these little I.D. cards for the first day of school.

This is her first picture she made for me! It's an apple tree. I looooooove it! I can't wait to frame it and hang it somewhere!

All ready for dance!




She couldn't wait to see Hailey! She was so excited that Hailey was going to be able to dance with her this year!










Danny's First Haircut

So we decided to cut off the Mullet! It was serioulsy sooooo long! He went from a baby boy to a little man!
It was so uneven and growing out so weird. We dissapointed dome people by cutting it but it needed it so bad.


He actually didn't do to bad. By the end though he was just ready to be done.









So here is my handsome baby boy! What do you think?

My Little Fish!

We had so much fun this summer swimming up at Aaron and Vesna's apartment. Thanks guys for letting us come hang out and swim!




























Yum! Yum! Yum!

So Uncle Aaron tried to feed Danny his baby cereal. Didn't go so well! No just kidding, he did an awsome job! You seriously can't shovel it in Danny's mouth fast enough. He just inhales it!
Danny got soooooo close to kicking the bowl right out of Aaron's hand.

Soooo cute!


Some of it kinda missed his mouth. It was so funny watching Aaron struggle feeding a baby. I guess he didn't think it would be so tough! Maybe it's just a challenge if you've never done it before. It was the cutest thing ever!




Happy 4th Of July!

Happy 4th of july! Our family from california came to visit for a week and we had such a blast! We went to sugarhouse for the 4th and they had the best fireworks! We had a picnic, played and just hung out all day until it got dark and they were ready to do they fireworks!
So we took a little tent for danny so he could take a nap while we were there. Umm yeah didn't happen. He just l ayed in there and played. But by the end of the night he was exhausted and ready for bed.

This is our little nephew Jaime. He is so cute! I coulndn't belive how big he had gotten. The last time we saw him he was only about 10 weeks old.


The clan! They have so much fun together! It was so sad when they had to go back to California. They totally need to move to utah!




Good Morning Sleepy Head

Crazy hair! He was about 2 1/2 months old here. He always wakes so happy!
