Utah Christmas

For Christmas we went to Park City Utah where my parents were gracious enough to bring the family together. It was alot of fun to have a white Christmas and spend time with family.

This is the cabin we stayed in. It was really nice and had enough room for everyone. We even could go sledding right out side the front door.

We went to tubing. Cade couldn't go on the big hills but we would swing him around and they had a small hill that you could push little kids down. He absolutely loved it!

Cade and Alivia sledding.

We went to the Olympic Museum. The boys bobsledding.

We stayed a couple of days after Christmas and got to see some of Adam's family who came in for Austins wedding.

The Christmas holidays were really fun and busy. We can't wait for next year.

Yes, we are still alive!

Here are a few things that we did in the beginning of December.


Making a Gingerbread house


My parents sent Cade a candy advent calendar. He loved it! Everyday he would come out of his room and say "treat!" Thanks mom and dad.

They have these amazing Christmas lights that they put up at the Bellevue Botanical Garden. It was really neat to see what they could make with just Christmas lights.

We had our own little Christmas before we headed to Utah to be with my family.

It's a...!

We found out we are going to have another bouncing baby boy! We are super excited for the adventures having two boys will bring!

November

This November has been full of many exciting adventures.

We have learned new ways to play with toys. This is just a dump truck, not actually made as a sit and ride toy.Been playing even more make believe and copying mommy and daddy.Explored the Seattle AquariumHad a good Thanksgiving dinner with friendsFirst haircutPut together some new furnitureand put up a Christmas tree!

Hope your November was just as fun and that December is even better.

What to do?

Now that it has gotten cold and rainy, and will be this way forever. Not really but lets realistically say May. I need ideas of what to do with Cade. He's 14 months old and is so much fun but is always on the go and up to something. I would like his "up to something" to be fun rather than just destructive. Please, I could really use some suggestions on where to take toddlers and what's good fun activities to do at home. Thanks in advance.

Then there were 4!

We will be adding one of these

To this May 2010!

We couldn't be more excited

Happy Halloween!

On Friday we went to Adam's office where Cade got to go Trick-or-Treating. He liked seeing the other kids more than the candy. It was funny to see him walk past bowls of candy and then he would stop and take 4 from the same bowl. Cade really likes going to Adam's office and pushing all the buttons.

Mad that he's not on the computer

On Saturday night we took Cade out with his cousins. He enjoyed it but got cold fast. By the end we even got him to say "Boo" to people instead of Trick-or-Treat
