Fun with Spencer!

Spencer has been a mommy's boy lately. He has been wanting me to hold his hand and he gives me kisses all the time. He has been so sweet and I just love our time together.

This week we have done a lot!
On Monday I took him to the DI so he could pick out a toy.
When I was taking him to the babysitters he fell face down into some rocks and really scratched up his face. My poor boy is always falling...because later that night he slipped on some blankets and I believe a toy went through his mouth and gave him a blood lip!

After school we went to play with my friend's BJ son Isaac after school (I teach her other cute son, Brigham). We decided to have family night with them and stayed over for pizza.

On Tuesday I took him to story time at the children's bookstore in town. Then he went and played with Abby for awhile.

On Wednesday we went to the park, then library story time, and then the zoo! Since he was able to walk he enjoyed the zoo even more. I can't wait to go to San Diego Zoo next week! He did have to get a flu shot, but then so did Clif and I! (I actually convinced Clif to get it!).

This slide was fast!

He could have stared at the ducks all day!

Then today we went to the Children's Museum. He really had a good time. He could stay there for hours I am sure. He loves water and balls so he is set! However, I was pulling him on the moneky backpack that Bj let me use and he turned right into a cement wall and got another goose egg. This isn't even mentioning how many time he feel at the zoo and almost lost his shoe to the duck! What am I to do with him? He is such a tough boy!

Enjoying the tree house. (You can see the scratches on his face if you click on it and enlarge it...it was about 3 to 5 times worse).
Playing some music.
Taking a 10 minute nap.
Right after the nap, as happy as can be!

Watching the ball. My silly boy!



He has so many options to pick from and he chooses what we already have at home!

At one point I couldn't see where he went or hear his voice. I went around the corner and found him reading to himself.

I am exhausted because I am still not feeling well, plus I got a head cold as well (so much for the flu shot)!
Addelyn and him haven't had any sleep in the past few days either so hopefully they take a LONG nap tomorrow! Sorry for so many pictures!

A bit of everything!

I know I do a lot of posts all at once. I just have a hard time finding time to do it and then when I do I usually have a lot to catch up on.

It has been a crazy past few weeks!

On the day of the carnival we took Addelyn to get her 4 month shots. She only weighed 11lbs and 13oz and 23.5 inches long. She is in like the 25% whereas Spencer was in the 80% and sometimes 90%! She is so adorable and smiles and giggles all the time. I just couldn't imagine my life without her! She is my princess!


That Saturday before priesthood session we went over to our friend BJ's house and enjoyed a really yummy dinner. Then the men left and the kids played and the women some what relaxed. I had a fun time. It was nice to have Clif go, as he hasn't gone our entire marriage.

*Oh yeah and he is holding a ice pack because he burnt his hand on my friends lamp and of course he got a big blister!*

Sometime later that week I was getting ready for work and I noticed that it was really quiet int he house...never a good sign. I went downstairs and discovered Spencer had crawled out the dog door and was shoveling the bark our friends had given us (we plan to use it to make the backyard look nicer so when we sell it looks more like we made it a playground).
It was wet outside, he was in his brand new pj's, and I was running late, but I couldn't help but laugh!


It has been getting really cold here. It is nice since our AC hasn't been working, but it wasn't really a gradual change so I am still getting used to it! Here is Spencer playing in the first snow of the winter. His boots are a little too big still so he is kind of clumsy!

Playing with the dogs If you can't tell he is saying, "Cheese!"
Saying "CHEESE" some more!

On Saturday I started not feeling good and couldn't figure out was wrong. Well...I ended up throwing-up, but not until the end of the night. I couldn't sleep at all. Clif had been sick on Monday, but never had thrown-up so I guess I got it from him a whole week later!

I still felt pretty sick on Sunday as well. I did however manage to wake up and go to our good friends Nicole and Evans blessing of their baby Luke. Evan did a great job and I am glad I was able to make it.

Smiling Kids!

Addelyn and Luke. Aren't they adorable? It is fun to see them together. They are almost the exact same size.

Here is my sweet boy enjoying being a kid. I hope he always stays this happy.

Overlake Carnival

Today the school where I work at had a carnival. I originally was going to volunteer, but somethings came up. Then I realized it was the wrong weekend so I decided to go and support the school by buying some tickets and having fun. Spencer is still a little bit too young. I just get so excited. He liked the train ride though...I should of had someone take a picture since we were in it with him. He was mostly pretty quiet. He didn't want his face painted, but he loved all the cotton candy and food!
I thought this was like a dinosaur costume, but then realized there is no tail! Most people called him a dragon..but don't dragons have tails too? Maybe he is a lizard!

He is so fierce!
Ignore our squinty eyes!


My "son" the cow! Everyone kept calling her a boy. I wanted to get her the ladybug costume, but Clif wanted the cow. I think she still looks like a girl. I was going to put a blow in her hair, but then she can't wear the cutest part.


I actually got Addelyn to smile...whereas Clif didn't even try.

We also got his hair cut twice this week. We ended up paying like 18 dollars altogether. The first time she thought he was too upset to try and use the clippers and hardly cut anything around his ears. (Granted he doesn't like anything near his ears these days). I remember when he would just sit there and not care at all. This is like his 15th hair cut!
Once I got home though I realized it didn't even look like it was done. Then my friend Amy cut it and of course he wouldn't sit still for her either. I am thinking no more hair cuts for along time. I guess he will just have to have the long boy hair!
