Love these kids.

Just hanging out withs some of the funnest kids in town.... We made cars out of boxes while we watched the movie Cars. I'm the coolest aunt ever.













First World Problems...

 No, you cannot have any soda, Easton! He was so dissapointed!

Every morning we would wake up to Easton turning on and off the light in his room. He is totally obsessed with light switches. He is always pointing to lights/fans and always wanting to play with light switches. When I set him down on the bathroom counter so he can reach the light switch, he giggles and gets super excited.


 We ran out of diapers and my jumbo Amazon package was hours away. We had to get by by using leftover swim diapers from the summer. I'm just so happy he didn't have an accident!a





Bike Rides

So I totally became obsessed with bike riding. Like really. I love it so much. I love how good I feel after, I love that it's something active I can do with Easton and I know it makes him really happy, I love pushing myself to go further and harder. I just love it. I love seeing new streets and neighborhoods that are super close to my neighborhood and I wouldn't even know existed if I didn't go riding... I love looking at houses and discovering cute neighborhoods that I could imagine Casey and I living in... and I love when I have a destination to bike to. I can't stinking wait until next summer because I am going to bike ALL over Utah!!






The first snowfall this year. Easton loved it! He was super confused for a bit, but then I think he really liked it. At first, I was pretty excited too... there's just something abuot the first snow fall and the smells that is happy. But since that moment, I have been totally and utterlly pissed at the snow. I just want it and the cold to go AWAY so we can go on bike rides.



Play Date

Easton got to hang out with Reagan today!! Reagan is my friend Ana's little girl and it was really nice having them live close so we could go on walks, bike rides and to the park this summer. I'm even more excited for next summer when they will be more mobile and like the park even more :)


Bath Time

 Sometime Easton can stay in the bath all day. He LOVES the water. He loves to splash and kick his feet, he loves to play with his toys and try to drink the bath water. He loves when I dump a cup of water on his head and he loves when the bath tub is being filled and he can run his hands through the water. There is something just so cute about how happy he gets in the bath! I really hope he always loves the water like me!










Birthday Cake round two, Family Pictures

Easton liked his second birthday cake when we celebrated at my parent's house MUCH better. He was a lot more rested.



 Then just a few days after his birthday, we took these pictures... kinda his 1 year pictures, but also family pictures too. Thank you Jeremy for taking them!!
















Then we dressed up for about 5 minutes on Halloween... Easton wasn't too sure about it!



Easton's Birthday

I can't believe it's already been a whole year! It went by so stinking fast. I still feel like we should have a newborn. Casey and I feel so incredibly blessed. It's so hard to explain the happiness that Easton has brought into our lives. We were happy without him and if we didn't know anything different, would have continued to be pretty happy. I believe that people who aren't parents, just don't know what they are missing. I'm pretty sure that when I'm with Easton... I have a constant smile on my face. We love him so much and really do feel so incredibly blessed to be parents.
 

 He was pretty stinking excited to get this toy!


I took the day for his birthday, but we stopped by the Foundation to visit. My dear friend and co-worker totally spoiled Easton. We appreciate Sandy so stinking much and I absolutely LOVE that Easton is so loved.





Then that night for dinner we went to Wallaby's and got a Magleby's chocolate cake. It was getting passed Easton's birthday so he wasn't exactly excited about the chocolate cake... plus I think he was sick of the attention.








Easton was spoiled!!





Putting him to bed on his birthday was very bittersweet! I love that he is getting older and having such a cute personality... but it's so sad to me that he's getting older and older. I just want him to stay young forever!!

 LOVE YOU EASTON, SO SO SO SO SO SO MUCH!! THANK YOU for making me one of the happiest moms on the planet!
