Most Sundays...

...tend to be a little hard on the nap schedule. This is usually the result come dinner time.

I'm in trouble...

The first of many clothes for baby girl...

Fun at the Fair

We went to the Utah State Fair on Saturday. And thanks to a neighbor received free tickets....the BEST kind! Zachary talked all day the day before about going to see the cows, horses, chickens, etc....but the only thing that he would touch were the goats. He was scared out of his mind over the pigs. It was hilarious! There was an awesome Legos exhibit that he/Joe could have stayed
at all day. He was pretty tuckered out by the
time we left that he fell asleep in the wagon on the way back to the car. Joe was asked to judge the Dutch Oven Competition later that night, which he really enjoyed doing. We ate lots of fried food...including alligator. I think that we might go back this week for what we missed....fried twinkies, candy bars, and PB&J! Doesn't it all sound so delicious!

New Bed

Zachary recently graduated to a big boy bed! We are still in the midst of trying to get ourselves into a routine and actually staying in bed after the lights go out. This is definitely a work in progress for both of us. Who knew that he would be so interested with books?! Especially at bedtime...wait a second...is that a stalling tactic?
I'm just glad that he is showing an interest in books. I remember my dad reading me stories before bedtime and then me reading him to sleep at bedtime. One of our favorites was the dictionary! I know...bunch of nerds!
And just on a side note....doesn't he look like he desperately needs a haircut?

Letting Go

Jared and Andi came up for the long holiday weekend. The boys were all loving the wagon. Everyday they would ask to get it out of the garage. One day Andi encouraged them to go for a walk around the block. So they all took off with Gage and Zachary inside the wagon. I have to admit that I was a bit nervous. How bad could it be? He was with his cousins. But guess what? It wasn't as bad as I thought. So here it is on record...Zachary's first trip around the block without any adult supervision!

Thanks for coming up guys!
