What?

So Auklin's new word lately is  What? :) even though it is kinda annoying it is so dang cute because he totally says it in the right context. I will ask him to do something so say something to him and he will say "what?" I will repeat myself a couple times and then he will do whatever I was saying or asking. Its kinds fun because I feel like I am actually having a conversation with him- even though its only a little one it is so great! I love it- And I think I say no too much by shaking my head no and say "uh uh" because he also does this too when he doesn't want to do something.  Right now it really is only when he really does not want to so it is way cute- I just have to work on that before he starts doing it for everything! :) He is just so much fun- 

Shal

It is my friends birthday today and I just wanted tell her happy birthday and you are such an amazing mom- I love all the cute fun ideas you have to keep your kids entertained. They will cherish those moments! Thanks for all the fun times we have as well! :) Happy Birthday!

The cool thing to do!

Ok! So this is so great and you should try it next time you are thinking of getting your eye brows or mustache waxed or plucking them- it is called eyebrow threading! It is so cool and it works so good- it is so fast and if you wax usually it doesn't take off that layer of skin leaving your skin irritated and red or swollen- once your done- your done and it feels like plucking so I wont lie and say its painless but if you know what plucking feels like- you know its not too bad... it gets all the hair you cant usually see and it gets all the little hair too that waxing seems to miss! I love it- try it out- Best part of all it will save you money!!! You can do it yourself and its way easy! Or give me a call and I will do it!!! You have to try it!

Who needs a girl!!!

HEHEHE oh we just love this kid- he is starting to bring me his shoes everyday when we are getting ready to leave and I say "lets put your shoes on so we can go bye bye" and he goes and finds them and brings them right to me and sits down and lifts up his foot. Well today I was surprised when he brought me MY shoes, we werent even going bye bye... and he handed them to me and acted like he wanted to put them on- he got frustrated so- we put them on for him and sure enough~ he is a natural!!! :D hahahahaha oh we got a good laugh out of him! 

15 Months

He is so big!!!

OK so I posted a 15  month already but I didnt post a picture- Ryan Thompson took our family pictures and this was our favorite of Auklin, it was a very cold day so even though there was a lot of cute ones of him he had purple lips in most of them :) hehe it was so sad. It was a fun day and Auklin was pretty good for how cold it was- 

I NEED MY SISTER

So this is our new yard! :) I just have to say that I need my sister Jeni to come help me muscle all these clumps of dirt off my yard! We make a great hauling team ;) hehehe 

(its kinda an inside joke) But this is our new project. Our lawn was completely fried, not comin back so he had to swallow it and get to work! Its been kinda fun being outside in this great weather- I hope we can get it done for the summer-

The Zoo

So we have been working so hard lately we decided to get a breath of fresh air... Our friends from out of town stayed at our house and the next day we went to the zoo- we thought we would make a day out of it but those of you who have been to the zoo know it only takes like an hour to be at the zoo and then your done :) well we were there for like 2 hours. I guess it will take longer when the kids are older- but it was such a great time! It was fun just getting out and doing something fun together. The little girl in the pictures is Scarlet- she is just a doll! She is just a couple months older than Auklin so they will be pretty close buddies. Auklin loved seeing all the animals, he went around barking at all of them :) we are working on other sounds but so far he likes dog the best- I think his favorites part was when he could get down and look at all the animals behind glass and be right face to face- We had a great time and it was a beautiful day! 

GO COUGARS!!!!!

 (there is one in the background)

For Great Grandma

This is a cute Valentine card that Great Grandma sent to Auklin, he loved reading it! We just wanted to share this picture for Grandma to see- :) Here you go, we love you~

Yard Work

So we did a little yard work today and as you can see Auklin was hard at work- He loves to be outside and he loved playing in the dirt- He is such a big helper! :D

Peek a Boo!

15 Months

So Auklin is now 15 months tomorrow and he is so big- he has such a character- He is so dang funny and he knows it!. He loves to laugh at himself and he opens his mouth real wide and just laughs so hard. His new things are; he knows what a doggie says, he knows where his nose, head, ears, and bellybutton are, he loves blowing kisses and now giving Eskimo kisses, he covers his eyes to play peekaboo, he loves to dance to music and he will move his mouth like he is mouthing the words :) hehe so funny! He can catch a ball, when you ask how old he is he can point his finger and say "mon" he needs a little reminder on this one but as soon as you show him once he does it. He throws his diaper away in the garbage, he puts toys away and other things that are around, Kasey spilled a box of screws and he went over and started putting them back in the box, he always gets the broom out and pushes it around the tile floor, he can jump (his feet never leave the floor but he bends his knees and straightens them real fast :) ) One of my favorite things is when he looks at me so seriously and then just gabbers and then after he nods his head a little with this cute face like saying in a way "you got that"! Oh I just love it our little conversations- he now calls his binky nana because when we give it to him we always say "night night", he is pretty good lately at coming over and laying right in front of me when he is poopy and flings his legs up in the air! He loves to be center of attention and it is just so much fun! He got this swing for Christmas and he loves it! He loves to be outside and play like a big boy- I do have to point out his fabulous new cowboy boots! He is so cute in them, its hard for him to walk at first but then he gets used to it...He makes us laugh so much- We just love our cute little boy-

Just to show his cute mouth when he laughs-
