Look At Me!!!

CHOCOLATE!!!

Whenever Parker eats, he makes a complete mess. The food tastes good, but he hasn't experienced it fully until it's on his head. I had to take pictures so people would believe me.

Dancing and Singing In The Rain

It doesn't happen often here in Phoenix, but today we had lots of rain. And yes, PUDDLES!!! 

So we jumped and played in them. It felt SOOOOOO good!!!  

Happy Valentines Day!

Aiden is an amazing singer!! He knows lots of songs. But for Valentines day, I thought it would be appropriate to post this one. It's the song from Pete's Dragon. Here are the words he's singing.

"It's so easy to find someone who cares, it's so easy to find magic in pairs. Now that you have 'em, hold 'em, treasure him from day to day. Cause it's so easy.
Life is lolly pops and rain drops with the one you love. Someone you can always be with, argue and agree with, climb the highest tree with. Cause it's so easy."

Hope it makes you feel loved!!!

Grandma & Grandpa Francis Visit

Grandma and Grandpa Francis came to visit us. We recently moved (only a block away) so they helped us unpack and organize and get projects done. Of course we found time to play! Yes, we went swimming outside in January. And look at Grandma in the water with us!! Way to Go Grandma!! Grandpa was the party pooper and refused to get in the water.Aiden and daddy are both fishes. They could swim all day, every day. Aiden swims all by himself. He jumps off the side and swims about 10 feet to his dad. No fear, he absolutely loves it!
We went to the Desert Botanical Gardens, which was fun to see all the cactus and desert plants.
We love Grandma and Grandpa so much and are so grateful they were able to come visit us!

Christmas Morning

YEAH!! Christmas morning!! We had so much fun. Aiden looked so cute in his new Elmo footy pajammies.

We had tons of presents! We made the mistake of having Aiden open Santa's present first. Nothing mattered after that. We were opening his presents for him after that because all he wanted to do was play with golf clubs.


This is all the stuff Aiden got. How fun is Christmas!!!

Santa's Lap

Aiden was so much fun this Christmas! He got all into Santa Clause and singing the songs and the lights and everything. He got to sit on Santa's lap at the ward party. We had to stand in line forever because all the older kids were in line in front of us. When we finally got to where we could see Santa, Aiden started telling him what he wanted for Christmas. He couldn't even wait until he was sitting on Santa's lap to tell him he wanted, "golf clubs and a golf ball to hit it in the hole." This is Aiden telling Santa while waiting in line.Aiden had no fear of Santa. Everyone helping was amazed that he sat right down and told Santa what he wanted. No crying or anything.
He got a treat bag from Santa that had a lolly pop in it, Aiden's favorite candy!! This is what happened on the way home from the party. Oh man, did he have a good time!
