HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

Ya, ya I know we're not in costumes... we had a hot date! Cole's in town and watched Boston for us so we could go. She's such a great sister and aunt! It felt weird to be out without our #1 guy. I can't remember the last time we went out without him.

We went to California Pizza Kitchen(yummy!!!) then to Walmart to get a few last-minute things for the haunted house. We found these wigs at 50% off and couldn't resist!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!

He's a silly boy!

Boston is not a fan of hats. When we go to the pool I make him wear one since he is "pigment challenged" as my mom says :) The whole time he is trying to pull the thing off which is why when he went and dug it out today I was totally surprised. He then tried to put it on but couldn't so he crawled over to me so I could put it on. After I put it on him, he crawled away happy as can be and played with his toys. He kept it on for a good 20 minutes. He looked so funny in his jammies and swim hat! Rob and I couldn't stop laughing!

MOTHER!!!

We have a 2 car garage.

Let me rephrase that... We have a 1 1/2 car garage.

We can barely fit our two cars in without hitting each other or the garage. Well, today I wasn't so lucky. Rob's truck was in the drive-way as I was pulling out so I was really focused on not backing into him and forgot to be so careful about my front end. All of a sudden I hear this loud crunch and a crash. I turn around to see half my rear-view mirror missing and the glass cracked. The funny thing? Nothing happened to the garage!

On the up side, now Rob won't notice the big scratch in the paint along the mirror from me scraping it on the garage a few months back cuz that part's off the car now! :)

I texted my friend and she told me that I was allotted four swear words for this. I haven't used them yet...I'm saving them for when we find out how much this is going to cost to fix ha ha jk!

His favorite position to eat in

Rob has been sick for the past two weeks. It turned into bronchitis so the lucky guy got to wear a mask around the house so as not to get us sick :)

Boston enjoying a bowl of spaghetti with mama. Thank goodness for oxiclean and zout- a mother's best friends!

Rob playing home run derby with some buddies from the ward

Sunday afternoon cuddles....i love Sundays :)

Bathtime with Daddy!

The other day Rob was in a bath because of sore muscles so we tossed Boston in with him. Boston had a blast with Daddy and having the tub so full!

My little superman :)

I swear these cheeks are so yummy I could kiss em all day!

St.George Part 1

Earlier this month we went to St. George to watch my sister run the St. George marathon. This is her 4th year...Good Job Coco!! The marathon is a qualifier for the Boston marathon so my sister had this shirt made. It was so cute! She is such an amazing aunt!

Look what she got him for his birthday... How cute is that?! He loves it!!! More pics to come from our trip!

i love these two...

Boston's first time trying a popsicle...

Yes that's conference in the background...we were slackin' off for a moment laughing at Boston! What a silly boy :) Love you buddy!

Happy Birthday Boston!!!!

Last week was Boston's birthday!!!! I can't believe my baby boy is already

ONE YEARS OLD!

On his special day, his cousins and some good family friends came over for cake. Here we're all singing "Happy Birthday" to him. I love his face! We've had a few different parties for him- one with my fam and one with Rob's mom- and every time we have sung to him he gets this same exact look!

Boston is allergic to dairy (we're hoping he'll outgrow it soon) so I made my first ever dairy-free cake! It actually wasn't too bad! It had the consistency and taste of cornbread. The dairy free frosting didn't turn out too creamy so combine that with a still warm cake-I was running behind- and the frosting was dripping off the cake completely! It didn't look too pretty but Boston didn't mind! I made the rest of us a double-decker chocolate cake..Yum!!

If you've been following my blog you know how much fun Boston has when eating. He LOVES to make a total mess of himself!!! What's funny is that he was very hesitant to touch his cake at first. We had to make him touch it and he was totally confused by it.

He almost looks disgusted by it in this one!

But as soon as we gave him a few tastes of the frosting, it was all over!

It took much longer than I anticipated for the mess to make it to the forehead but it got there! haha Good job Stick-oo! And I'm so proud of him that he didn't try even once to take off the hat! What a big boy!

His post birthday cake bath! First bath as a one year old!!! Yay!

After the bath we hung out and the kiddos played for a bit. The initial plan was for all of us to go to the carnival that is by our house right now but they decided not to go. Mason was in the hospital over the weekend and they were anxious to get back to him and Kerry.

So we bundled Boston up in his pj's-less exposed skin for nasty carnival germs! YUCK!- and off we went.

We only ended up going on two rides(the rest didn't look too safe) the carousal and the potato sack slide.

I love these two guys!

We went on the slide like 6 times at 3 tickets(3 bucks) a pop...Ouch! Boston LOVED it! His eyes would get huge when we went down! I thought it was pretty fun too! If I didn't have a kid I'd still ride it!

When Rob took Boss down he got bookin'!!! There are three bumps and on the last bump he got some awesome air! They have carpet at the bottom to stop you, even though most people stop way before it but Rob got to the carpet and still didn't stop! He had to reach out and stop himself ha ha

My tired birthday boy

We got home a little past Boston's 7:30 bedtime and threw him in another tub. TWO tubs on his birthday! What a lucky duck! Boston LOVES his baths and got so excited when he realized he was gonna get another one! After that it was his bedtime bo-bo, a cuddle with daddy, and my little prince drifted off to sleep. What a fun day!

Happy Birthday Baby Boy!!! We love you SO much!
