Scarecrow Festival

Yesterday we went to Thanksgiving Point for there scarecrow festival. There was so much to do and we were actually there for 4 hours. Lexi had a blast and didn't want to leave. Its so fun to have all this so close to our house.
Here is Lexi dancing to the band playing in the background.
Lexi and Daddy petting the horse. I couldn't handle the smell.
Lexi being adorable on the hayride. But she got scared at the end when the headless horseman chased us!!
VROOM VROOM.. pedal race cars!!
Lexi's first pony ride.. She LOVED it and had the biggest cheese the whole time. I think she has a new favorite thing to do. I'm thinking next year we will make a few more trips over to thanksgiving point so she can ride the ponies.

GUESS WHAT?!?!?!?!

That's right.. Paul and I are expecting number two on May 2, 2009. We went to the doctor today and i was put in the ultrasound room so they did a quick one. We were worried a little bit about things just because of the miscarriage before Lexi, so we didn't really get to excited. Until after the appointment when we were reassured everything was okay. I am 9 weeks along and been feeling okay actually. I've been nauseous off and on but not to the point of throwing up( which is in someways worse) and just been really tired. Sorry for the people who find out on here i just haven't had a chance to sit and call everyone. Lexi has been cute and will point to my tummy and say baby tummy!! She went to the doctor with us today and thought it was so cool that we saw the baby and she got a picture of it. We will keep you posted as the pregnancy progresses!!

Hot tub me?!?!?!

Lexi found her new favorite thing at Grandmas house... the Hot Tub!!! Uncle Tyson got in pretty much every night with her and some nights Grandpa and Daddy joined. Poor Tyson heard pretty much every second of the day, Tyson Hot tub me?!?! Tyson really has a soft spot in his heart for her and ALWAYS gave in. I think someone has him wrapped around her finger! Yesterday in the car she kept saying Tyson home?!?! I think she misses someone!!

We really had a blast in Pa and were sad to have to come home, especially to real life work/ etc. Thanks again Grandma, Grandpa, and Tyson for letting us stay with you!!!

Big scary Dinosaurs!!!

This dinosaur museum is seriously a mile from my house or less. Its supposedly the biggest in the country. Paul and I have been here before but that was before a kid. It is very kid friendly with lots of activities to keep them busy.

Our little peanut sitting on triceratops foot. Shes about as big as one of his toes/claws.
They have this huge sand/water play table, where you can make little islands and put play dinosaurs and little trees on. Lexi LOVED this, she was a little to short to reach herself though so we had to hold her.
I'm thinking she LOVES this little guy.
Finding dinosaur bones in the big sand pit.
We are thinking about getting a pass next year to thanksgiving point which includes a few other things to do as well as the museum. Its so close and relatively cheap why not. I recommend it to anyone.

Beat by LEXI!!!

We've been trying to do something fun every Saturday with Lexi. We decided we would try bowling. To our surprise she loved it and didn't want to wait for her turn. She has been so much fun lately, holding conversations with us, singing at the top of her lungs ( "Happy birthday to ME!) and just saying goofy things. We truly are blessed!




Paul and I were beat fair and square by Lexi. Paul and I used to be good bowlers but who knows what happened. Believe it or not i WAS on the bowling team in high school and won a trophy and everything now i cant seem to bowl over 100!!!
( dont worry i sound like a muppet on here!)

The fun of Camping...

Back in July we went camping up American Fork Canyon. Paul and I love to go camping but havent gone since Lexi was born. We finally got brave and took her. She actually did really well. She cried a little bit when we went to bed but loved to play in the dirt and put dirt in Jadies ( our dog) water and food. We went just friday and saturday but it was a nice little get away.



Her feet when we took off her shoes!!

All ready for bed.

ATV... or ABC as Lexi says..

Lexi loves her ABC.. and loves playing with Courpy (Courtney) and Qinn (Quinn), who also got little 4 wheelers. They have had fun riding them around the neighborhood and its so cute to see these tiny little guys off and going on there own.


Courtney, Lexi, Quinn.

Lexi thinks now that shes got a ride.. that she has all this new found freedom. She will get on her 4 wheeler and head straight to Quinns house, park it, walk up the stairs and knock on the front door. I think she thinks she a lot bigger than she is. Its been really fun this summer meeting the neighbors which happen to have kids pretty much the same age as Lexi. We have been blessed to move in to such a great neighborhood.
