September 2014

Usually when Paxton hugs Graham, Graham cries because it's too much.  But I happened to catch this rare moment on camera where they both were smiling.  Paxton had so much love for his little brother, sometimes it's just too much for Graham.

We had cousin Jake over to play.  They loved being outside!

Our first cast.  You would think with how much this little one likes to climb that he did it himself, but nope it was his big brothers fault.  We were getting ready to leave someones house and Rem had Graham on his shoulders.  Then he knelt down to help Paxton put his shoes on, which he was throwing a fit because he didn't want to leave.  When he pushed Rem in the chest with his feet which knocked Graham off his shoulders.  Poor thing, I didn't even figure it out until about 4 days later.  He used his arm just fine, it was only when I was touching that he complained about it.  So one day when I was helping him learn how to spoon feed himself and he started crying is when I started thinking something was wrong.  After testing it several times I decided there was something wrong and took him in.  Sure enough he had a buckle fracture in his wrist.  After about a week of the soft cast, he got a hard cast which was only on for 2 weeks.  And of course the day I took him in to get it off he had a huge goose egg on his forehead!  And no it was not from that fall, it was from something different.  He did great with his little cast on and it was the cutest little cast ever!

Playing at the Park

Golfing

Rems brother was in town from Australia so they got together for golf one day.

Love his smile!

Rems Grandma's 94th birthday!

First day of Preschool

(2nd year)  That means he starts kindergarten next year.  Crazy!

Comicon

Pax got to go with his dad to check out Comicon.  He loved seeing all the different people dressed up!

Bear Lake

We met up with my sister, Erika and her husband Ben in Bear Lake one weekend.  We only stayed one night, but we had a lot of fun.  We wish we could have stayed longer.  But it was nice to scope out the good camping spots and make a plan for a longer trip next summer (not fall, it was too cold to get in the water).  

Paxton has been loving Teenage Mutan Ninja Turtles lately, hence the playing by the sewer ;)

Checking out the gorgeous view and taking a selfie with kids that wanted to be down playing in the sand.

Got our fake campfire going.

Two cute messy faced smiles from these happy boys!

Ward family Temple night

My kids are not easy to photograph together, I guess this is the best they got ;)

Paxton and his best buddy, Grady (with the older brother doing bunny ears).

The Zoo...

and another day at the Zoo...

We got to the Zoo right when it opened so we walked right through and went and saw the artic area first and then went up by the tigers and on our way to see the wolves we were just standing there when all of the sudden this Cockatoo started talking to us.  It said Hello, How are you, it whistled at us, and said want a cracker.  Oh and the best was that it laughed at us!  Everytime we laughed, it mimicked us and laughed back.  It was great!  Definitely the highlight of that Zoo day!

We went with our friends Kimberlee and her little boy, Jack.

Horses!

It was baby cousin, Owens baby blessing at his Grandma's house in Heber.  It was so beautiful there and so fun that we got to pet the horses.  My kids were not too sure about that, but they did it!

I love this picture of a bunch of the boy cousins on the Sorenson side.

(There are 4 others!)
