the funny things kids say...

At church yesterday during Sacrament Meeting, I took Paxton in the Mother's lounge.  As we were in there, one of my friends came in to feed her baby. 

Paxton asked her, "Where's your baby?"

 So my friend opened up the blanket some so Paxton could see her. 

Paxton then replied, "She's eating you?"

 Ha ha ha, we were laughing so hard!  I guess at some point I'll have some explaining to do.

St. George

We went to St. George last week and had a blast!  We just needed a little get away, so it was perfect that Rem had fall break.

 

We visited the Temple.

 We went and saw the movie, Hotel Translyvania.  It was really cute, Paxton even liked it and didn't get scared.  (Nothing was too scary)

 We should have bought the large popcorn because that's what keeps him in his seat the best.  The popcorn ran out too fast.  Then he was wearing the popcorn bucket on his head pretty much the rest of the movie and said that he was in a marching band.

 We climbed on Dixie Rock, Paxton just loved being able to climb.

 We played at a really fun park.

Later that day Jamie and Dan joined us in St. George.  And it also started to rain, we were bummed out because we had tickets to go to Aladdin at Tuacahn that night.  The rain was off and on so we were hopeful, but no luck, they cancelled the show :(  So instead we had some friends over to hangout and play games.

 

 We went to the Wild Life Museum on a rainy day.  Paxton's favorite thing is animals, so he loved looking at and pointing out all the animals.  Some of them kind of scared him, we had to remind him that they were all fake.  It was pretty cool to see the museum, I couldn't believe how many animals were in there and most of them were shot by one guy.

 

 We enjoyed the water on our last day.  We were glad that it warmed up.  I couldn't believe how much Paxton was loving that splash pad.  Usually he is more afraid of the water getting in his face so he stays more clear of the water, but this time he was running right through and getting soaked!  I think everyone around was watching Paxton.  He was just running, screaming and laughing!

 

Silver Lake

I had been wanting to go up the mountains to see the beautiful colors on the trees.  I was disappointed at first because everything looked like it was dying already, but as we went further up the mountain we got to see the beautiful yellow trees.

 

Paxton was so excited to go up the mountain, he kept naming off all the animals we might see up there... ducks, elk, deer, moose, chipmunks, even chinchilla's!  (I guess Go Diego Go says chinchilla's live in the mountains??)

 

'Grandma Peggy' or 'Chuck-a-Rama Grandma' came with us.

Paxton loved climbing on the rocks, it was hard to get him to keep walking.

 

It was such a beautiful day!  I love walking around there.  Paxton even made some new friends, he loves saying hi to everyone that passes by.

Catch-up

Hot Air Balloons

Back in August, Paxton and I woke up early to go see the Sandy City hot air balloons take off.  I try to go every year, we make muffins and juice and walk over to the park.  It was so fun to see all the balloons get blown up and take off.  Not all of took off this year because it was a little bit windy.  We always see lots of neighbors there, it's a lot of fun!

Heber

Paxton's aunt Liana lives in Heber so we spent the day there with her, her baby Keladry and her neice, Andi.  We went to lunch at the train place (they are eating on the train) then back to Liana's parents house for naps and afterwards, swimming!  We had a good time, it was fun to go see all the horses too!

Twinners

Dan and Jamie showed up on Sunday to hang out and Jamie and I were twinners.  I don't know if I've said anything, but Jamie is pregnant too!  She is due in January, I'm so excited for her and it will be so fun to be pregnant together!

 



They took Paxton for a golf cart ride, his favorite!
