Easter & A Boot

Since Henry would be walking on his cast the doctor suggested that he get a boot, but again with the cost, so we decided we would make one.  

 Henry is such a Daddy's boy.

Not too bad!  Just a little silly looking!

Egg hunt! 

 

 

 After the hunt his boot already needed to be readjusted.

How he fell asleep like this, I have no idea!

He Found His Thumb

Look at Ollie sleeping with grandpa!

Ollie is the happiest baby!  He sleeps, eats, poops, plays, repeats.

 I have tried since Oliver was born to give him a binki to pacify him but he has never wanted one.  I didn't care enough to try a bunch of different kinds to find one he would take.  I just figured he was fine without one.  But...It looks like he had something else in mind!  

Uh oh!  I don't want his sucking his thumb so I'll have to find a binki he'll take.  But, the only times I've caught him doing it is when he is hungry and I don't get to him right away.  I better not make him wait or he'll be developing a dangerous habit!

But, it is super cute though!

Potty Training Henry

Our original plan was to potty train Henry when he got his cast off.  But, when we got the news that he would be getting a second cast we decided we were going to do it anyway!

I'm glad we did because Henry has been amazing.  He only had like 4 accidents in the first 2 days and then only 2 more in the past 2 weeks!  We hardly even ask if he has to go, he just tells us when he has to go.  

Here he is telling daddy he was going potty.

Henry's Cast Comes Off!

We went in and were told his cast would be coming off today!  [April 12]

After a small scratch from the saw, the cast came off! 

 Good thing he had his fruit strip to get his through!

 Jaxon was so patient and interested while Henry was worked on.

Waiting for the doctor. 

 Waiting for the x-ray to get looked at.

 Oh, it's still broken!  We need to put another cast on!  

WHAT?!  I think I was more excited to get rid of that dang thing than Henry was.  I was such a bummer when we found out he would need anther one!  Not to mention the cost!

 He picked orange this time.  This doctor put a little more bend in the knee and gave him a flat foot so he could walk easier.

 It was a tiring afternoon!

I Will Go, I Will Do

Jaxon and Henry wanted to take their tools outside the other day.  I told them it was fine as long and they made sure to bring them all inside.  Then, I heard them outside pretending they were Nephi and Sam building a boat.  It was adorable!  

 Henry wearing protective eye goggles, of course.

 Silly boys!

Him & Her

I am in the process of putting the pictures from our old computer on our Mac.  It has been fun to see some old pictures.  

Here we are, Christmas 2005.  We had been married 1 year.

New Blog - Favorite Moments

I added a link on the sidebar, but I wanted to mention that I have a new blog.

Find it here:  Daily Favorite Moments.

Jaxon's Current Interests

Jaxon absolutely loves to draw or color or do any kind of art project.  

This is my nightstand with remnants of one of Jaxon's art projects.  

 This is such an accurate picture of Jax:  Ironman costume, markers, Buzz, Spiderman cup.

 He says he was trying to draw an arrow.  But...it looks suspiciously like something else...  

 Wearing underwear on his head for a Buzz Lightyear helmet.  He's got quite the imagination!

These are Batman figures that he turned into "The Wrong Buzz," Buzz, and Woody.  His idea was sparked because that green part on the Batmen glows, like Buzz.  Then, if you have kids who watch Toy Story 2, you might remember when the gang takes the wrong Buzz from Al's Toy Barn.  Anyway, that's the one with the blue belt.  Then, we have Andy's Buzz, and Woody.  

 I love this boy!!!

Utah Trip Pics

Finger dancing in the car on the drive

Here is Henry at Pasta Factory.  Luckily we got a booth or else we wouldn't have been able to eat there because he needed to lie down.  He basically slept the whole trip since he had just broken his leg.  This was one of the few moments during the whole trip that he was being his silly self.  

Our night in Laughlin was spent in the hotel with Panda Express, and it was really fun.  I almost tossed this shower cap, but Jaxon found it and entertained himself with it for the rest of the night.
When he first found it he said, "Is that what they use to make stuff at Costco?"  I thought it was funny he thought of the Costco sample ladies when he saw the shower cap!

That black rock is his "lava rock."  He learned about volcanos in preschool recently so they were his obsession during the trip.  

Henry laying down, of course.

More shower cap fun!

Story time before bed.

I was trying to get them all to look at me, but I actually love how this turned out with the boys looking at their daddy.  They sure do look up to him!

My little cuties!!!
