A Day at the Farm

We went to the farm at Thanksgiving Point and had a great time petting and feeding the animals.

Alek loved feeding the goats corn. He stuck his whole hand in the goat's mouth and would laugh when it would lick him.

Good thing we had his plug since he was trying to eat the corn as well.

Sadie and Alek.

Alek collecting his favorite thing, rocks. He also likes to try and eat them.

Sadie on the pony. When she was done riding, she had to walk around and pet all of the ponies.

Alek loved riding the pony. He was petting it and talking to it after his ride.

Addie riding the pony. She was so happy because she got to ride it twice.

Ouch! That's Gonna Leave a Mark

We spent the nice warm day swinging, having a picnic, going for a walk, and playing with friends. Alek was having such a good time until about 5:30 when he came face to face with the driveway. He was playing with a basketball and chasing it down the driveway. The good news is, he caught his ball, the bad news is he rolled right over it and skinned his head and nose on the driveway. He cried for about 30 seconds and then he wanted to play with his ball once again. It looks worse then it actually is, but I felt so bad for the little guy. He plays hard and has the bumps and bruises to show for it. At least he gets right back up and is ready to go again.

Happy Easter

This year Easter is on my Mom's birthday so we decided to get some cute pictures of the grandkids in their Easter outfits for her birthday present. They turned out really cute. We took individual pictures and a group picture. The group shot was tricky since we had 2 babies that needed to be held and Alek who wanted to run away, but it still turned out cute. Thanks to Desi's sister-in-law Brittney who did a fantastic job on the pictures.




The Cousins
Addie (5), Ryker (3 months), Sadie (3), Asher (2 1/2 months) and Alek (1)

Spring Come Soon

I am so sick of this weather! I'm tired of being stuck inside the house looking out at snow. I couldn't believe it snowed today, I mean it's April. Well, we are in Utah and this happens every year, but this year it seems even worse because Alek really wants to go outside. He looks out the window and points to the swing across the street at my parent's house. I keep telling him that when it gets warm, we'll go and swing. Also he has had a stuffy nose and a bit of a cold for 3 weeks now. It starts to clear up, then comes back again. I am constantly wiping and cleaning out his nose. At night it's awful because he can't suck on his plug. I hope that it gets warm soon and stays warm and then maybe Alek won't keep getting sick. I definitely have SPRING FEVER and I sure hope that we start seeing some Spring like weather soon.
