What A Ham

Brandon wanted to snap a few pics of Grant before we went to church today. For some reason, when I held up the camera, Grant would make this super cheese-ball face/Asian eyes. It was hilarious! He kept doing it to the people around us in church, too! Where does he learn these things?!

Maybe he wont have a BabyGap modeling career after all....

Kitties

Here are some pics of our cutie little kittens that were born on Easter. Their poor mother, Lilly, was just born herself in October and she had 7 kittens! One of the kittens died the day after they were born and actually, one of the kittens in these pictures got ran over tonight by Brandon :(

I wont tell you which one...it makes it less sad.

The black and white is Brandon's fav and the white one is mine

Grant LOVES the kitties. He was getting pretty aggressive and just grabbing at em, but they took it pretty well

Sorry these pics are pretty bad. My camera isn't that great, the lighting was bad, and these little buggers are quick!

Yes, that's our lovely farm house in the background ;)

Arizona

Is it a surprise to anyone anymore that Brandon gave me tickets to AZ for my birthday again? It will always be the best gift ever! We got to go the first week of May and overlapped a few days with Chelsea. After a 2 1/2 hour drive, 5 hour delay at the airport, and another 45 min drive, we finally made it to my parents house!

Playing with Papa, getting ready to swim
Mother's Day

It was kinda sad not being with Brandon on Mother's Day (he gave me a coupon for a professional massage before we left) but, I did get to be with my OWN mother!

Grant and Luke with their matching outfits

Swimming! It was a lovely 98 degrees!

We decided to try the splash pad one day at Desert Ridge.

The water was pretty cold, so Luke wasn't a big fan.

Grant chillaxin in the stroller

"Aaaah this is nice"

Then we decided to try it out. Grant liked it pretty well.

One of my best friends growing up, Whitney Soper, was getting married on Saturday, but I had to go home on Friday because we had tickets with Brandon's family to see Wicked on Saturday!

I was bummed I couldn't go to the wedding, but was able to go to her shower on Thursday night.

Me, Sarah, Whitney and Chelsea

(Yes, Chels and I are matching patterns..I had it on first ;)

Shoshone Falls

The night before I went to Phoenix for a week we decided to have one last hoorah and had a (KFC) picnic at Shoshone Falls.

We played with bubbles
Rolled around and tried to grab Dad's magazine (Grant loves magazines!)

And soaked up the sunshine!

The falls were even stronger than last year! I was blown away!

It's the "Niagra of the West" dontcha know?

You're Welcome, America

Gone A-Wall

I love collecting A's and Brandon's sister Holly was sweet enough to give me a vinyl A sticker (the big one in the middle) for my birthday! I think it really completes the wall.

You should check out Holly and Heather's website http://www.vinylizeit.com they have super cute stuff and great prices!

(Remember they also did that big monkey on Grant's nursery wall)

Randoms..

Some pictures I've been needing to post for a while..

My cute friend, Amanda has gotten me into crafting!

We've made these cute spring wreaths. This one is just yarn and fabric rosettes..

This one is just ribbon tied in knots This is a "tag blanket" for Grant

The inside has a plastic bag, he loves how it crinkles

She's also helping me make a quilt for Grant. Actually, I can hardly sew a straight line, so she's doing most of the work :) It's super cute though, can't wait to show you the finished product!

I also celebrated my 22nd birthday!

Brandon had mutual and a championship basketball game on my actual birthday, so Caroline was sweet enough to make my birthday dinner and cake. (Thanks again, Care!)

Some of the lovely gifts I received..

Going out to dinner a few days later..

(Notice how, when no one else is around, we just have to take pictures of each other holding Grant)

Grant is a pretty wild sleeper, this is a shot of his hair after rubbing it all over in his nap

He is also crawling backwards now, today he got himself trapped in this corner. I had to laugh, take a picture, and THEN rescue him ;)

Notice that he is still smiling though

Are you jealous of my life, yet?
