Uncle Keith's Visit

Just a funny picture of Angel putting his binkie buddie on his head! Silly Angel.

Toby's best friend Keith came to visit from Georgia!! Sadly Toby had more work that week then he planned. So while Toby was at a job Keith, Russell and I went to temple square. It was so warm and beautiful!!

Keith and floppy head.

After Toby's job's were done we were all really hungry so we went to In-N-Out. Keith hasn't had it since his mission.

Russell and his In-N-Out hat. We took Russell to In-N-Out for the first time a couple of days after he was born!

We went for a little walk to some waterfalls in Provo canyon. It was kinda cold so we didn't take a long walk, but it was really pretty!

The boys!!

It went from about 70 degrees to snowing within Keith's 4ish day trip. So it got cold and Russell and Keith cuddled.

I was about to go to bed when I looked over and Russell was holding on to Toby's arm. It was so cute!!

I love this boy!

First 4 Wheeler Ride, Foot and Hand Prints and meeting GG

Toby has been so excited to take Russell on his first ATV ride since before he was born. So the weather was good that the ATV was out already. So he got his ride!

Proud daddy and SLEEPING boy.

"It's so bright"

Can you tell he is so excited while he is asleep.

Cute boys on a 'sick" lookin' 4 wheeler.

So sweet. He went a good 2 MPH the first round but the second he reach a whopping 10 MPH.

For my baby shower one of the lovely ladies in my ward gave me a gift certificate for hand and foot print wall hangings that she makes in her basement. So we went when he was 3 weeks old.

This was not his favorite 10 of his life.

So cold.

Toby took these pictures to black mail me when he is older to prove to him that Toby loves him more. Then I should have taken pictures of him getting circumcised...

Circumcision was way worse then this!

My Grandma and Grandpa were able to come out last weekend for my Cousin Trina baby's blessing. He was born the day after Russell.

So cute!! Russell looked half the size of my Grandma...she is so cute and even cuter with Russell. Her and Grandpa Tom loved holding him the whole night, when he wasn't eating that is.

Russell's First Camping Trip

So the week of my mom's Spring Break my dad wanted to to go to Little Sahara to test out the RV some more and have some fun before my mom had to go back to school. Toby, Russell and I fallowed my dad in the truck just in case. So we were wondering around the camp ground trying to find a good spot to camp and my dad hit some really soft sand. So this is us stuck. Toby was able to pull him out with the truck. That thing is still a beast. But the RV is so old and heavy that when my dad was trying to get out the tires wouldn't even spin. So lucky we had a heavy duty chain and were able to get him out a whole lot of problems.

Here is the RV just after it got out.

Toby took Raelin out on the 4 wheeler and at one point they hit a little bump and she hit her head on the handle bars. I would like to say that luckily she was wearing a helmet but that is what caused the problem. It was to heavy for her to keep up and she hit her cheek bone and has a bruise and a scratch. Toby felt so bad but she was to tough. She didn't cry she just said "I don't like the sand dunes" Then when she got back she said with a sad little face that she just wants to take a nap. What a sweet kid.

This is the awesome bed that Toby put together in the back of the truck. It was almost better then my bed at home. Russell was a champ and slept great that night.

He had a couple of layers and this beanie to help keep him warm. And we had LOTS of blankets and I kept him nice and close for body warmth.

His camping outfit that Toby was so excited about.

Russell's camping blanket!!! Thanks Grammy.

The camp site. Not what we are used to, there were tables and grills but it was great for what we were up there to do.

Sadie broke the rope chasing some kids...darn dog.

The moses basket!! There is a baby in there.

Mommy and baby cuddling in the RV.

My mom, dad, Toby, Russell, Sadie and I got there on Thursday and had a fun night. My parents stayed in the RV while the rest of us stayed in the truck. The next day my sister and her kids came for the day. We ate a lot of food (that I didn't even have to prepare!!-Dad did everything so my mom could enjoy herself!!), played in the sand and Toby and my dad 4 wheeled a lot. The plan was to stay another night but I didn't think it was good for Russell who was 1 week and 3 days old to spend another night breathing that cold of air and Toby had to get back to work. It was a good thing too because it got crowded. We we all left and had a wonderful dinner at my parents house!! It was really fun and I think Toby is proud to say that he took his son camping when he was not even 2 weeks old yet! Good trip! Thanks dad.

Baby Pictures

I was asked to get more pictures out of the baby so here you go...

He sleeps a lot.

Alaina is so cute with him!

He always has his itty bitty little hands next to his face to help him sleep =-)

ahhh how cute...

His favorite way to look around is upside down.

The two most handsome boys in my world!

What a fuzz head.

His first bath with Daddy.

Dad's 55th Birthday

For my Dad's 55th birthday my mom set up a surprise dinner at Carrabbas for him. Because of the baby Toby's Dad was in town so we had a nice big group.

Patrick and Amber (Toby's Brother and his wife). Amber's first time holding Russell...I think she is a big baby hungry now.

Birthday Boy and his women!!

Amber, Russell and Kelsey (Amber's youngest)

Toby, Doug and Ryker.

It was a fun night. I think my dad had a good time just chatting and having some good food!!
