My neighbor made this cute car cake! 

 Paxton wasn't too interested in eating it. 

Messy boy, he even smeared it all in his hair.

Thanks everyone for making this a SPECIAL day for Paxton. 

 We all had a blast!

St. Paxton's Day

A year ago on March 17th, this little baby boy and this beautiful girl made us the LUCKIEST parents ever!!

Here is how we celebrated this day...

Bath time.

He had to wear his birthday suit on his birthday ;)

Then we went to McDonalds for breakfast and play.

Paxton is lucky to have a dad who will crawl around in the tunnels with him.

Lunch time.

We went to the park when Dad got home from work.  Lilo had a blast chasing her frisbee!

Testing out mother nature.

Dinner time.

And present time!

The video is of Paxton's first time on his four-wheeler.  Since then he is liking it alot more now.  But he still needs help with it.

Happy Birthday little buddy!  LOVE YOU!!

Paxton turns ONE!!

Happy St. Paxton's Day to my sweet baby boy!  I can't believe it was a year ago today that he came into this world.  That was the luckiest and best day of our lives! 

These are his one year old pictures taken by my cousin at the salt lake library.  They turned out so stinkin' cute!

I love this one because he says "dah" and what does a dog say? "woo woo".  You can see it on his face :)

What a STUD!

Some new things Paxton has been doing recently is...

*saying "duh" and hitting his head.

*softly bonking his head against the wall and turns to look at you for a response.  So I say "bonk" and he turns to do it again and again...

*he has mastered going down the stairs.  He knows how to turn around now without us telling him to (most of the time).

*when he gives kisses now he puckers up by sucking in his cheeks like a fishy face.  And he also will blow kisses to you.

*he loves to ride on Daddy's shoulders especially when he is running, Paxton will scream and laugh.

We love this boy so so much, we can't get enough of him!  He is so easy going and overall a happy little boy.  We are not proud parents at all  *wink wink*

another day with the Kimballs...

Last Friday, Rem and I went to my cousins wedding and Paxton got to go play with the Kimballs again!  He loves playing with those kids!  Visit the Kimballs blog to view some cute pics of the boys playing.  Thanks Rach, looks like we need to get these boys together more often :)

This is my cousin Sam and his new wife Abby.  Their wedding was beautiful!  They got married at Bountiful Temple and a dinner at Memory Grove.   I took my camera but left it in the car so I didn't get any pictures, I grabbed this one from facebook.  They are so adorable and I am so glad Sam found such a wonderful girl!

I can't wait to take Paxton and Lilo back to Memory Grove Park, it was beautiful there! 

A week with the Kimballs

At the end of February, Rem and I helped out his sister and her husband by watching 2 of their kids while they went to Hawaii.  We babysat Jessica (8) and Taylor (6), Paxton called him 'Tay Tay' (in a whisper). 

Paxton LOVED Tay Tay!  Taylor was such a big help and loved to play with Paxton!

Paxton was quite the show off with those kids.  In the mornings he would have full conversations with them by pointing at them and then back at himself while jabbering away.  It was super cute and hilarious!

The kids got along great with Lilo.  We even turned her into a lion while we were there :)  My mother-in-law makes these cute hats in all different animals.

Paxton had a GREAT time at the Kimball home!

He loved their back door.  He spent a good part of his time here just watching the kids or Lilo play outside.

He also loved the piano!  Whether he was playing it or I was playing it (the one song that I know)- he loved to dance to it.

We had a great time with Jess and Tay Tay.  It definitely gave us an eye opener to having more kids and having older kids that have HOMEWORK :0  But one great benefit was Paxton had buddies to play with!

11 months

Here are some things Paxton is doing at 11 months old...

*Paxton is imitating alot, he tries to copy what you are saying or doing.

*He is such a cheese ball :)  The pictures explain this one!

*His laugh is more pronounced instead of just a little giggle, he will laugh out loud.

*He says:  Mom, Dad (I love how these are not mama & dada), Dah for dog, we taught him how to blow, Papa- he whispers this, and TayTay- he also whispers (this is his cousin Taylor that we have been babysitting the last few days).

*He is so good at giving LOVES- hugs and kisses.  He even gives Lilo LOVES ;)

*We put a pillow in his crib now and he loves sleeping on it.  He doens't move around so much now because he wants to stay on his pillow.

*He always wants to eat what we are eating (even if we just fed him).

*We started him on Whole Milk and he is doing just fine with it.

*He is still just cruising the furniture and doesn't stand up on his own yet.

*He has crazy hair most of the time.  Yes I know he needs a haircut way bad!  But he has been doing this thing where he rubs and grabs his hair with one hand and sometimes he does it when he is eating, it's lovely.

*LOVES his Mom!  I think right now he is a Mama's boy, he constantly wants to come to me.

I LOVE this picture!!!

 When I think that I have reached the max on how much I love this boy, that I couldn't possibly love him anymore because I already love him so much... I'm wrong, I love this boy more and more every single day!!!  He is so much fun to be around and I'm sure my love for him will only continue to grow stronger and deeper as he grows up.
