Month of January in a Nutshell...
We have had quite an eventful month...hence the lack of updates! We got to go up to Idaho for the dedication (even though it was rescheduled!!) we had a lot of fun with all of our friends and family living there!
The biggest news is that Adam was recently layed off from his job...because of the housing market Centex is not doing too well...it was inevitable and we were blessed to make it through many groups of lay offs before this one! We are also excited because this might give us the opportunity to move back to Utah and be closer to our family! So it isn't so bad...but if anyone has any contacts--let us know!!
So here are a bunch of posts from the last couple of months and the fun things we did!
Easton is 2!
We can't believe it...Easton is already 2!! He has been so much fun and we both couldn't imagine life without him! He has taught me so much...especially patience
Here he is the day he was born....
And NOW!!!

Idaho Trip!
We got to go up to Idaho this past week! We were supposed to be up there for the dedication of the Rexburg Temple but it got rescheduled for the 10th for Pres. Hinckley's funeral... It was a ton of fun though we stayed with my friend Courtney (from preschool) she was a great host and we had a blast! I got to see a bunch of my preschool buddies and we saw Brad, Ryan and Rebecca! We had so much fun and it was a very relaxing week! Thanks Courtney for letting us bombard your cute new home!! I have videos that I will post later!
Goofy Pictures!
Here is a bunch of silly pictures of Easton and what he has been up too.
One day, I noticed it had been quiet for a while and so of course I knew Easton was up to something...and I found him in the dryer...the best part is that he learned to open it himself and I found trying to close himself inside!
Here he is helping me make mashed potatoes...one of his favorites!
Easton came into me and Ace with my purse on his arm and said, "Bye!"

This is his favorite place to
read his books. He pushes
it out into the kitchen climbs
in and reads...silly kid!
He loves his bear and his Elmo there are days where he must have both of them with him at all times...other days he couldn't care less!
Easton loves to have Ace read to him every chance he gets

Aiden came back to play with us and they just hugged each other over and over for at least an hour!
Easton will wear this hat all day long he loves it...only problem is that it is pink!

Funnest Preschool Week Ever!
So this last week has probably been my favorite week of preschool that I have ever done so I thought I would post about it! It was a lot of fun to be able to talk about Christmas --I wasn't allowed up at school so I took major advantage of it!
On Tuesday I did an entire day on the book, "The Polar Express"! It was a blast! I had all of the children come to school in their pajamas. Then they were given a ticket to board our polar express train (I just had the chairs lined up like a train)
After everyone was aboard the train I used a book on CD to read the book (it had all of the train sound effects and voices so it kept the kids attention a lot better than me). When the story was over I "accidentally" bumped a chair and all the children discovered there was a silver bell under their chairs! We then sat and had Hot cocoa and chocolates just like in the book! Such a fun day!

The First Fat Lip...
Well, another injury to the face for Easton! He was doing his nightly ritual of running around in circles, tripped and fell into the corner of our coffee table...He was bleeding so bad at first we couldn't even see the cut. We figured it was bad so I was getting everything together to take him the the ER (Easton has a lovely way of getting sick or hurt at night so we have to drive further to get to a doctor). A few minutes later Easton had forgotten the whole thing and he had stopped bleeding so we were able to look at the cut. He had a cut inside his mouth and outside. The outside cut is a lot smaller than the inside. We called the doctor and they said there wasn't much they would do for the inside of his mouth at his age... by this time Easton was running around laughing and playing again so we figured he was going to be okay!

The funniest part is that exactly one year ago he got his 'dent' in his forehead...
Our Little Drummer Boy!
Easton has this cute little toy drum that he LOVES- he is always playing with it! Although recently he has discovered a new way to play... I don't think I need to say much...only problem with this is that he does it over and over again but he can't get out by himself so he sits in it -- realizes he is stuck--cries--I pull him out--then he sits in it again--it's a really great cycle! 
Thanksgiving with Easton! 2007
We had a really great Thanksgiving! Best of all we didn't have to travel--we forced everyone to come to us!! We had a full house, but it was a lot of fun! Instead of cooking, we went to a buffet...and, well I think Easton out ate all of us!!
