Good Times Visiting Family!

We were going to take our first family trip. While we were visiting family, Chris' Grandma ended up having a stroke. We canceled our family trip and spent hours of time with family both good and sad. We sure are going to miss Chris' Grandma. She was a great Lady!

Christian and Ruben had great time driving and riding in Grave digger truck.

We loved it how Christian would put his arm out of the car like a little man.

Christian wasn't the only one who had to try out the grave digger.

Christian and Ruben had so much fun playing together. They were pretty much always together except during Christian's nap time.

First time Chris family got together for about 12 years.

What is in the dryer?

I went downstairs to grab something and this is where I found Christian.

Christian's flips

Christian started doing these tricks that he calls his flips. He is such a funny bug.

Potty Training Time

I felt like it was time to try to potty train Christian but I didn't know where to begin. I read online to find his favorite stuff animal and have it be part of the potty training process. It is working with him wanting to use the potty. We are still working on the part of knowing when he needs to go. Hopeful that will come soon.

Christian's cute sayings

Christian has been saying some funny things lately. Chris thought it would be good to post on our blog.

Christian: I like football like my dad.
Heather: Are you going to play football when dad gets home?
Christian: No, wrestle him

Chris: Where's your brother Christian?
Christian: Over there.
Chris: When's your brother coming to visit us?
Christian: He needs to play hoops with us.


Christian: There's 2 kids
Heather: You and who else
Christian: Dad

Heather: Christian your frog is saying thank you for cleaning out his tank. It helps the frog to breath better.
Christian: and I am saying your welcome.

Cute Christian

Christian always sings "Taco Taco man, I want to be a taco man." Christian's uncle

Steven decide to wrap Christian up like a taco. Christian wanted him to do so but I think he changed his mind once he was all wrapped up.

Have a few fries with your ketchup.

Christian just dunked it!

We had to get these cute dancing moves. I love how he is also trying to sing the song.

Look What Christian Can Do

Chris want to go fishing for Family Home Evening on Monday. While Chris was fishing, Christian and I found this fun slide. I never when down this slide but it sure was fun watching Christian. He liked it so much, he didn't even want to feed the ducks again.

Christian kept making these shots and we had to get it on video. Of course, once we started filming him, he didn't make them as much.

Chris was show Christian how to do a kick out pass. Christian didn't think that is how it should be done. This is how he thought a kick out pass should be done. What cleaver thinking this boy has!

Three weeks ago, we went to visit Chris' parents. Chris' brother also came to visit and gave Christian a big wheel. Christian wasn't very teachable and was very determined to ride his bike Fred Flintstone style. Well yesterday, he started really trying to pedal. Today, all day he was trying but it was really hard to do it on our carpet. I decided to take him outside to see if he could really pedal. He does really well down hill but struggles more going up hill. It's so fun to watch him grow up but sad at the same time. I sure love this boy of mine.

Fun Times with Cousin Juliet and Aunt Melanie

Christian and I invited Melanie and Juliet to come and feed the ducks. Christian and Juliet are best of buddies and have fun everytime they are together.

Juliet was getting really hot and we decided to try to cooler off by getting her face and hair wet. That turn into wanting to put her feet in,to wanting to stand, to wanting to walk. Christian was really scared to get in because he saw all the gross things in the water. We finally got him to stand in the water.


Christian wanted to sit in the water but didn't dare do it where it was really dirty. Once I set him here he didn't want to leave. I think Juliet felt the same way.

While Juliet was picking flower, Christian was picking up rocks and throwing them. The difference between boys and girls.

Christian showing Melanie his stick

Christian wanted to share one of his stick with Juliet. Juliet decided she want to taste it. I think she liked it because she chewed on that stick for awhile.

Thanks Melanie and Juliet for the great day of fun and adventures!
