seven months

I can't believe my little guy is seven months old.  Where has time gone?  He is a very good kid - most of the time :). He loves his bottles, his sister, paper, remotes, plastic wrappers, and pretty much anything he can get his hands on. He never sits still, and always has to be moving. he loves watching other people, little kids especially. He is very ticklish, and I can't get enough of his giggle.  We've had a hard time getting him to eat solids - he throws up almost every time. I'm not sure if it is because we've been sick, but it isn't fun. So we're taking a break, and will try again in a few days. We are so grateful to have him in our home!

November

November has been quite the exciting month. We have been sick the whole month, and I think we are finally on the mend. here are a few random pictures from this month:

Abigail was very clingy while she was sick. We watched Tinker Bell, Tangled, and Toy Story a lot.

We finally pulled at the Baby Einstein and Grayson loves it. Abigail loves it too.

mid-morning snack of goldfish. I guess it must have been cold downstairs because
she kept sitting in front of the heater.

Grayson rolls everywhere and gets in tight spots - like under the bed and in corners.
Just these past few days he's gotten on his hands and knees, all ready to crawl!

Abby's favorite snack - chips & salsa!

I thought by now she'd get over playing with toilet paper!

Zion

The last weekend in October we were able to go down to Zion National Park with our good friends, the Sanders.  It was a beautiful weekend (we left the snow behind!), and we enjoyed playing outside at the park, hiking the Emerald Pools at Zion, games, and more. The trip started out with a blown tire around Payson, a two hour delay in Provo getting a new tire, but went smoothly from there! 

Grayson napped awesome the first day - sleeping for 2 - 3 hours per nap!  Guess we wore him out.  This is how he likes to sleep (now minus the swaddle). He likes to have a soft blanket near his head.

 Lisa & I carried our babes the whole hike up - I feel like this was quite the accomplishment! 

 Zion is one of our favorite places to visit - it is beautiful there! 

Can you guess what she got into?  She loves anything that twists on and off, and my favorite is that she knows exactly what to do with the mascara. 

 This little guy turned six months!!  he is rolling everywhere, going in circles, and very close to crawling. We sure love him!

The park they had near the house was the coolest park ever. The kids played there for hours.
