Sorry Toes...

This happened a little while ago, but I wanted to write it down before I forgot it.

Lately, Easton has been getting really good at apologizing when he does something mean or bad. The other day, Easton was (as usual) running around the house and as he turned a corner he stubbed his toes on the corner of the wall. He started to cry and I said, "Oh, did you hit your toes?" and he said, "Yeah" then he sat down on the floor, cradling his foot in his hands and with the most sincerity I have ever seen he said,

"Sorry Toes." and gave his little foot a kiss.

Now how's that for being apologetic!

If you ever thought I was a little weird...

Here's Why...

A little while ago my mom, her sisters, and my cousins got together for a weekend getaway. I wasn't able to go, but I might be a little happy about that now or I would have been caught in this crazy video with the rest of my crazy family!!!

Anyway, my cousin Jen posted this video on her blog (at the bottom of her post) and I was crying because I was laughing so hard (although it probably won't be funny unless you know my family). And if anyone is wondering, my mom is the one in her famous purple silky pajamas dancing to Micheal Jackson's...

The THRILLER

Fun Times with Dad...

Here are just a couple of Easton's favorite things to do with his dad

baseball

Baseball... Easton loves to play baseball we were at the park for an hour or so just letting him hit the ball over and over. (By the way, this picture isn't the greatest, but stands out because as I took this picture I got hit by that ball!)

daddy-back rides

And back rides. Any time Ace is on the floor Easton climbs up and says, "Giddy-up Daddy!"

Wal-Mart & Obumbum...

So, recently Easton has been paying attention to things that I didn't think he was...

First, Walmart. I feel like I don't shop there a whole lot, in fact I'd prefer Target any day, but apparently Easton knows the store because I was on the Wal-mart website and Easton saw this logo, jumped up and said, "MAL-MART!!"

This man has been on the TV a lot...

Barack-obama1

I never talked to Easton about him before, but now every time he comes on the TV, Easton gets very excited and screams "OBUMBUM!"

Funny story...

We brought Easton to the ultrasound thinking he would like to see it. The second the Dr. turned on the screen Easton looks at the baby in my tummy and yells, "FISHY!"

Happy Birthday Ace! 2008

Saturday was Ace's birthday--we celebrated the whole weekend by going camping! We went up to Mount Charleston and the best part was that it is 20-30 degrees cooler there then here in Vegas! We had a lot of fun and it was great to just relax!

Ace loves going out into the woods to get firewood so that we don't have to buy any. So for his birthday he got a hatchet and got a little carried away!

Happy Birthday Ace!! We love you!!

It's Too Hot...

That is my excuse for not posting! Not that it is too hot to post, but I just haven't been taking any pictures because we haven't been doing anything because it is TOO HOT here in Vegas! Here is how Easton has been relaxing...

He climbs on the top of the couch and just lays there!

Also, his newest thing has been collecting things from around the house and hiding them either under the table or behind a curtain...I found this collection after I put him down for a nap...

Who wouldn't want to hide a piece of paper, the camera case, and two cookies??

Priceless...

Recently, I sent this picture to all of our family members...

This is the reason for the freaky floating baby on the side of my blog as well!!

Best of Friends...

Ruby and Easton really have a lot of fun together! They are always playing so good and giving each other hugs! It's so fun to watch them play-the other night they played with sidewalk chalk- although most of the chalk ended up on them rather than the sidewalk, they are still pretty cute!

Poor Penny...

This last week, we took Penny in to get spayed. She is pretty miserable! She has to wear the cone on her head for 2 weeks and no playing allowed, so both her and Easton are going crazy! The Vet gave us some pills that sedate her so that she doesn't disrupt her stitches so she is like our drunken dog--she runs into things because of her cone and sleeps a lot because of her pills!
