Happy Father's Day

I saw this cute idea on Pinterest and had to make one or two!  Rem LOVED it and so did Paxton.  We spent the morning in bed driving cars on Daddy's back and then I made a pancake breakfast.  During church he got more and more back rubs.  As the primary kids were singing their father's day song, I stood Paxton up on my lap and he put both arms around mine and Remi's neck and said, "I love you guys".  It was so stinkin' adorable!

 Rem is such a good Dad! I love watching these two play together, sometimes I forget which one is the kid ;)  Paxton loves him so so much!

  

Then later we invited both Papa's and Grandma's too and Aunt Erika over for dinner.  It was nice to have all the girls help out with making dinner especially since we just got home from vacation yesterday.  (More on that later)

 Papa Moss

 Papa Sorenson

 and Daddy

 Papa and Daddy got twinner shirts and they all got Tornado Golf Tee's.  My clients husband invented these and they're just coming out on the market.  So if your Dad or husband likes to golf, here's a fun new thing to get them to try out (it's suppossed to add 15-20 yards to your swing!)

I love my dad so much!  He is the greatest example to me!

Happy Father's Day to you!

Our little TV star!!!

We were so excited to find out that Paxton would be on a Chuck-a-rama commercial. The producers just loved him! He had 2 days of filming. The first was at KSL studios for the talking part. He was scared at first, I can't blame him though. He had to sit on a stool by himself with this huge camera and lights in his face. So we spent a little time touring the studio and sitting on the stool with him. Then he was ready to go and he did such a great job. It was funny though, in between lines he would say, "sit on couch". He wanted to sit on the couch where everyone else was sitting (Grandpa, Grandma, Jamie, Erika and more). Then the second day we went to Draper Chuck-a-rama. This day lasted a lot longer because they were filming the cooking and also 2 other commercials. But this filming was easy because he had a big plate of macaroni and cheese in front of him. He loves that stuff!

After the commercial, Chuck-a-rama gave him a little payment.  It was funny, in the car I was trying to get it from him to see what was in it and he would not let me see it.  He was just so excited that it was his.  We are so proud of this little guy! 

Summer Fun

Hiking

One evening we went on a short hike up Rocky Mouth Trail to see the waterfall.  We took dinner up with us and enjoyed the view.  Paxton wanted to walk all by himself, we let him for a little while but we were starving so Rem carried him the rest of the way.  It was beautiful up there, we need to do more things like this!

Duck Ponds

Paxton and I try to go to different parks for our walks in the morning.  One of his favorites is the duck ponds.  We saw TONS of baby ducks when we went, they were so cute.  Of course we have to bring bread with us so we can feed them!

Bowling

 This was Paxton's first time bowling and he even got 2 strikes!  He loved pushing the ball down the ramp and he was very good about cheering on Mom and Dad.  Rem and I hadn't been bowling in a very long time and we both were shocked that we both got strikes on our first bowl!  I beat Rem with, I think a 114, he wasn't too happy about that ;)

Aquarium

Once again we went to the Aquarium.  We took Paxton's Great Grandma Soderberg with us, it was her first time going, she loved it!  Paxton acted like he owned the place and just took off where he wanted to go (we've been there so many times).  He was cute with his GG, he even held her hand with no prompting at all, I almost got it on camera.

 Tracy Aviary

I don't ever remember coming here as a kid, so this was new for me too.  It was fun to walk around and see the birds, especially to watch Paxton enjoying it. 

  We have been swimming a couple of times (no pictures) and I am sad to say that Paxton does not like it!  I think it's an independence thing.  He likes to go swimming, but just play on the stairs where he can touch.  If I take him out where he can't touch he is clinging on to me even though he is wearing his life jacket.  I hope to take him swimming lots this summer in hopes to get him to like it!

We are having a fun summer so far!  And we are excited to leave in a week to California with my whole family to play on the beach and go to SeaWorld and more!

friends & more

Earlier in May we had some friends from California come visti.  We had a BBQ with them, saw Avengers with them and they stayed over at our house for 3 nights, which we played games each night.  It was a lot of fun!

Paxton, Collin and Angela

Here we are at Airborne again with Maya.  Paxton is getting his groove on.

Paxton and I were dancing in our front room for our morning workout, when this song came on.  Paxton LOVES this song if you can't tell ;)

Paxton is very talented with his tongue, he is always turning it over (I can't do this).

Paxton ready for church!

Happy Mother's Day

We are so lucky to have such wonderful Mom's and for Paxton to have the best Grandma's ever!  We love you both!

I feel so lucky to be a Mom and especially to this little stud. 

He picked up this line from "Brother Bear".  One day I told him he was a stud and so he told me that I was a stud, so I told him "no, tell mom she's gorgeous" and now whenever I call him a stud, he tells me I'm gorgeous.  WHAT A STUD! 

Modern Family in Disneyland

Remember back when we went to Disneyland at the end of February??  And we saw Modern Family there filming!  Well the episode has now aired and it was hilarious!  I LOVE this show!

Here is a small clip that cracked me up...

mostly because of this...

If you are interested, is was a great episode...

You can watch the whole episode here:

We saw them at the park when Gloria, Jay and Manny were filming in front of Splash Mountain and when Phil and Cameron go on Thunder Mountain over and over again.

Kid talk

• Paxton is starting to say things that he shouldn't be doing and then ends it by saying "very bad, bad".  For example, the other day we were outside and he saw an ant on the ground and he said, "Don't touch it, very bad bad".  And when we give him string cheese, he use to choke on it, so now when we give it to him he says "Don't choke on it, very bad bad". 
• When Paxton drops something or when I do, he says "oopsie daisy".  I don't know where he picked this up from.
• Lately Paxton has been telling his dad "good job" for different reasons and then he gives him a thumbs up, it's really cute.
• A few sayings that Paxton will randomly say... "Mom, you're gorgeous", "Chuck-a-rama, I love it!",  and he is always saying, "whatcha doin' mom" (or dad, or whomever).
• Paxton is allergic to eggs and sometimes we still make things that he can't have, so we tell him that he can't have any because it will make him sick.  The other day we made cookies at my mom's house and as I was eating one he came up to me and said, "cookie, make me sick".

Paxton is talking so much, it's so fun each and everyday to hear what else he remembers or learns.  He's also singing songs a lot more, it's so dang cute.  We love this kid so much, he has such a fun and cute personality!

Just a couple of silly pictures :)
