FUNNY PICTURES

We took some pictures of Nixon in daddy's truck in a seatbelt and with some swimming goggles on that are pretty funny! Enjoy!

CAR WASH WITH DADDY

This afternoon Peter and I met at his parents house so that he could detail his truck and I could do some scrapbooking with Kristen. Peter put Nixon in the baby bjorn backwards so the Nixon wouldn't breathe in the fumes from the cleaning stuff he was using. After about 45 minutes or so Ellyse came outside and told Peter that Nixon had fallen asleep. Well...here are before and after pictures of Nixon in his baby bjorn.

CrAnKy, SiCk, AnD NiXoN StIlL SlEePs WiTh Us

Well I have been up since 11:42 coughing super hard! I don't know what brought it on. It is driving me crazy! It just all of a sudden hit me hard! I now have a bit of a stuffy nose and I can't stop coughing and my ears are plugged! I am downstairs because I don't want to get Nixon sick. He still sleeps with Peter and I. I know...I know...I should move him into is own bed in his own room, but I love it! Peter and I both agreed that when one of us wants him out that is when we will start the process of slowly putting him in is own bed in his own room. I don't want that day to come though...not yet. I love having him in bed with us! It is so convenient too! I can wake up, change his diaper, then roll over and feed him while I keep sleeping. It's great! Whenever I tell someone with kids that he still sleeps in our room I get so much crap. They tell me that "you will never get him out of your bed" and "if you keep him in your bed he will become more dependent on you" well good. I don't want him out of our bed yet and duh he is a baby and he should depend on me and know that I will always be there. I need to learn on my own what is and what is not good for my baby. And him sleeping with us is the right thing right now. So don't give me crap for our decision to have him sleep in our bed. I will learn on my own and I will suffer the consequences when we do decide to move him out! I am a bit cranky. sorry. I just can't stop coughing and it makes me not sleep. Well, I am going to try to go to bed. Night.

HAPPY FATHER'S DAY!

I want to tell you all how grateful I am for the wonderful men I have in my life!

I am so thankful for my dad! He is such a wonderful dad and I couldn't have asked for anyone better for a father! He teaches me so much and I am so grateful for all he does for Peter, Nixon and I. He is super smart and can fix anything....really....anything. Just a few weeks ago he fixed the dish washer. He is such a good example to me and I am so grateful for the wonderful relationship that I have with him. He works so hard and is a genius on computers! I love when he tells me stories about his police volunteer thing. Oh! And he got volunteer of the year last year! I am very proud of him! He loves trying new restaurants and finds way good one's that are little hole in the wall places that you would never think would be good. It's great! He is such a cute grandpa too! He is so cute with Nixon! I wish that we lived closer so that I could see him more! Oh! And he is a fabulous golfer! Peter loves golfing with him! He always comes back with something crazy they did on the golf carts! We love you dad! We miss you and we will be coming to Utah soon!

I also want to tell you how thankful I am for my father-in-law, Kris. I couldn't have asked for a better father-in-law. I have such a good time with him! I love going to lunch with him and hanging out with him. I am so grateful for all he does for us and for how good of an example he is to us. He raised such a good son and I couldn't have asked for anything more!
Some fun facts about him are that he is super smart in math...Grandmother (his mom) told Peter and I that he could be considered a genius when it come to math. He also loves his meat super done. Oh! And he doesn't like trying new foods and doesn't like fish. And the glasses that he is wearing in this picture, he has in pretty much ever color they come in!
We love you!


Last, but certainly not least I want to tell you how great of a husband/father Peter is. He is so cute with Nixon and is such a good dad! He is so protective of him and loves him so much! Right when he comes home he goes straight to the sink to wash his hands and then takes him from me. Nixon gets the biggest grin when he sees him! It is so cute! I love Peter so much and I couldn't have asked for anything more in a husband/father. He is such a cute dad and loves it so much! We love you, baby! You are awesome! Nixon and I hope that you have fun at the Price is Right and we will celebrate Father's Day on Tuesday when you get back! Love you like crazy! mmmwwwwaaaaa!

WORK 'N STUFF

So for the last couple days I worked at Stewart and Sundell scanning plans since Scotty was in Lake Powell. Abby was so sweet and she watched Nixon while I worked for a couple hours on Thursday and a few more hours today. I didn't realize how much I would miss Nixon. It was hard. I was just watching the clock for when I could leave. I didn't think that it would be that big of deal since I wasn't going to be working for that long, but it seriously was. I know that Abby is so good with him and that he would be okay, but I missed him. I don't get how working mothers can do it. I know that I couldn't. It was so cute though to have Nixon get a big grin when he saw me when I went to pick him up. I loved it! He is such a cutie! I can't get over it! He just makes me so happy!!! I love everything about him! I even love his cry! I thought that I wouldn't like it by now and it would drive me a bit crazy, but I love it! I love his cute dimples too! He is getting so crazy big! He had his 3 month appointment this week and he is 13lbs 24in.

There is really nothing to blog about. I have some cute pictures of Nixon, but I can't find the cord to hook up to the computer to. As soon as I find it I will post. Sorry.
