New pics for Mother's Day!

It's almost Mother's Day again! That means new pictures for my mom's calendar! Hope and Lena came over to take some really cute pictures, and we had a great time!














                                                                                                     
















                         




Forgive the random placement...somehow Blogger thinks I need another new way to organize my photos...anyway...this was really fun and for just a small digital camera they turned out pretty cute! Can't wait to give my mom her calendar!

Heath is 3!

I simply can't believe that my firstborn son is 3 years old! We had a fabulous time celebrating his birthday! First, came the friend party at the Living Planet Aquarium. Zac, Parker and Jaxxon were able to come and be with Heath at his cool party! We got to have an awesome party room that was a sunken pirate ship, with a wall of fish separating the room from the rest of the Aquarium.

Here are the boys looking at an anaconda!


His friends got a goodie bag to take home, and decided to open them and play with the jumping frogs. Here they are racing each other.


Heath's awesome Nemo cake that he picked out, which I felt appropriate for the environment!


Blowing out the candles after getting sung to by his friends!

Getting ready to open presents!

Opening his gifts from his friends!
We had such a great time! Thank you to all who came and celebrated! Nana and Grandma came too!

The next Sunday we had a little family party with the McMillans, I didn't get any pics of that, but we had fun there too!

Here we are on his actual birthday, March 6th at Chuck E. Cheese

He loves his Daddy!

Riding this cool truck!

Opening his Jessie doll, and so excited about it! He now has Woody, Jessie, Buzz, Hamm, Mr. Potato head and a regular slinky that he call "Slinky dog" and they all must be in bed with him when he goes to sleep :)


He is such a great kid, and I am thankful for him every day! He is 38 lbs, in the 93% for weight, and 40.3 inches tall, in the 95% for height! He hates eating dinner, which I find weird! He loves his brother, and tells me all the time "baby Rory is so cute!" he is a very sensitive boy, and can get his feelings hurt easily. He is now potty trained, except for at night, but rarely has accidents, and I love washing his cute underwear! He also says hilarious things! He has a cousin named Phineas, and we were watching a video of him, and I said "hey Heath! He's your cousin, and his name is Phineas!" And he looks at me and says "and beyond?" He loves Toy Story, and asks to watch one of the 3 movies every day! He absolutely ADORES his dad, and asks to help him with everything! He waves goodbye to him every morning and says "bye Daddy! See you for dinner!" He loves to help me too, and one day I put him down for a nap and started some laundry, and he "caught" me doing laundry without him! He got kind of mad, and the next day, while I was putting him down, he looks at me, with a serious-as-a-heart-attack face and says "Don't do the laundry!" I busted laughing, finding it hilarious that I was just "grounded" from doing laundry! He says something funny every day, and I have to be better about writing them down so we can laugh about it when he gets older :) I love my little monkey, and think he is the greatest! MUAH little man!

Rory is 6 months!

Can you believe my baby is 6 months old already?? It's going by way too fast! Here are his 6 month pics we had taken, by Amy Bennion

I call this one his turtle face...notice the pointy top lip... :D

Here he is practicing his crawl and silly face

If you have seen the new Disney movie Tangled, I call this his SMOLDER! HAHA!

This is a blanket that Amy needed a model for, for her friend's website I think...look at his wrinkly belly!


And another prop for her website, this cute bib! I just love his face in this one!

At 6 months, Rory is learning to sit up, grabs his toes and eats them, as well as his veggies! He loves squash, green beans, carrots, peas, spinach and cauliflower! He LOVES his brother, and they will sit facing each other and growl...hysterical! He is so happy, but has this ear-piercing shriek when he is upset that will deafen you if you're too close! He is not quite sleeping through the night yet, but will get up once to eat, usually around 2, and either stay up for about 2 hours, or go right back to sleep and wake up at 5...so I try to go to bed when he does! He is such a funny, happy little guy, and we will find out how much he weighs and how tall he is at his appointment on Monday. We sure love this little guy!
