Old McDonald

Zoe's new thing right now is to sing! She LOVES to sing! We sing ABC's, old McDonald, and the rhyming song. Here is one of her Old McDonald! I think this is so funny!!! Sorry that is is sideways... I need to remember next time to do it right side up!




Thanksgiving and Random

Here are some random pictures for everyone. I know that I only have been putting pictures of Zoe on here but she is so stinken cute... and it hard enough for me to remember to take pictures and get them on here! So this first picture shows just how much she LOVES green beans! She can eat almost a full can!! This was just a random day and we had a good friend over. Zoe all of a sudden found her belly and was showing it to everyone!
Then we went up to Grandma's house and she was the princess for the day!

Here are some Thanksgiving pictures! I have to say that she looked even cuter then normal!!!

I put on the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade and her eyes were glued to it! She loved the big balloons and all the singing!! I remember watching the parade with my family growing up and its fun to have Zoe doing the same things that I loved!!

By the end of the day this is what she looked like! It was so HOT in Grandmas house from all the cooking so I took off her long sleeve shirt and Aunt Kay threw her dress and said, "Its thanksgiving!" She she went around in just her tights!!!

Then both of my loves crashed on the couch!!!

Thanksgiving was such a great day! We got to spend it with Greer's family and we had a great lunch and a day of games! I am Thankful for my husband who loves me and keeps me sane, and for my sweet baby girl who I couldn't love any more!! I am also thankful for my family and for Greer's family!!!

Life Lately

I know that it has been a while since I have posted. It is so hard to find time to get the computer out without Zoe around.... she loves computers! Life has been pretty crazy for me and my family! I know that a lot of people don't talk about it but we just went through a miscarriage. I was 11 weeks when I found out and was devastated! I have finally come to a good conclusion that I did nothing wrong and that this was just not meant to be. I am doing really good now and I am just more then thankful for my sweat angel Zoe!! After dealing with all of that then the stomach flu went around our house... more then once!! After the stomach bug then the head cold! Anyways, we are all doing good! Zoe is getting to be a little toddler just up and running around and getting into everything!!! She is so smart, she talks and is learning her colors and the alphabet!! Here are a couple of pictures to show just how cute my little girl is, sorry that the first few are a little blurry, my camera was on a weird setting and I didn't realize!!! The first picture is Zoe with Grandma and cousin baby Khloe. Greer and I made mini cakes and Zoe loved them... can't you tell!!


I realized that I haven't taken pictures lately and I loved her hair so here is a couple of these.



This morning Zoe had her thermals on... which was funny enough, but then she decided that she needed her shoes on too!

Zoe

These are just some random photos that I have taken the last week. Zoe loves music!! Greer got some new ear phones and wanted to see if Zoe would keep them on, and she LOVED Them!!! She kept them on and was dancing all over the place!!! We have a bean bag chair in our front room and we put Zoe in it. She couldn't get out the first couple of times so she would just sit there. It was so funny!!



4th Anniversary

Greer and I just had our fourth Wedding Anniversary on September 8th! It is amazing to think of all of the obsticals that we have been through since the day we went through the temple! I am so lucky to have a man that loves me and is an amazing husband and Dad!!!

California Trip

Last week Zoe and I took a trip to visit my family in California. We flow... which wasn't the best of experiences for Zoe!!! Luckily I had Zoe with me because we were running a little late and the airport was packed.... they let us go right through the line!!! She was really good on the flight until we started down... then it was so bad!!!! She scram her head off for about 20 minutes... even the flight attendant came over to make sure she was OK!! So embarrassing!!! But I was so happy to see my Dad sitting at the airport waiting for us!!! She wasn't really sure about my family. Luckily for me, my sister Kim was in California visiting also and Zoe would go to her. Kim left to go back home on Thursday... by then at least she would go to my Mom and sometimes my Dad!! Zoe was so tired from the flight that this was how we found her by the time we got home!
That night... we had a birthday party for Zoe. My Aunt Linda let us use her back yard and we had a swimming party!!! Zoe loved the water... she was a little fish!!!

We invited all my family out to swim. This is Zoe and I with my sister Kim, my cousin Michelle, her daughter Sammie, and my cousins little boy Jett!! They all had fun in the water!!!


We had cupcakes....


Which ended up an all the little kids faces!!!


Then we opened gifts! Zoe wasn't to interested in the gifts!!!!


On Tuesdays my family does taco Tuesdays, even though its usually not tacos!! We went to Dos Coyotes... which is one of Greer's favorite places to eat when we got to California!!! Zoe was playing with her glasses and I showed my Dad that I had another pair in my bag... next thing I knew he had the other pair on!!!!


The rest of the week we kind of a relaxing week. We played Five Crowns a ton!!! On Thursday, we walked around the mall. Grandma and Grandpa got to help Zoe... until their backs hurt them too bad!!!


When we stopped for food, my Dad put Zoe on top of the table and she grabbed onto the umbrella pole!! NO SHE IS NOT A POLE DANCER!!!!


Saturday morning we went to the Folsom Zoo. It was fun to watch Zoe look at the animals! Behind us in the cage was Zoe's favorite... MONKEYS!!!


There was a deer that walked right up to us! My Dad didn't really look at the signs every where and decided to share Zoe's snacks with the deer!!!!


Then we saw the bear!!! There were 2 big bears in this area! By the way Zoe was barking at all of the animals.... we are working on that!!!


A fun little photo opportunity!!!


Overall it was such a great time with my family!! I love and miss them already!!!

My baby girl is now 1 year old!! Can you believe it cause I can't!!!
We took Zoe to the store and put toys next to her and the two that she liked the most we bought for her birthday! We also got her a high chair!

She liked to play with the balls!


Zoe has found her muscles!! We ask her where her muscles are and she tenses up!!


We went up to Greer's Moms house for a little family party. And she got tons of toys!! Her favorite were the ones with balls... can you tell!?!?!


She loved all of her new toys!


We got this cake cause it was the only cute one that Maccy's had but also the little pink girl is Zoe and of course Elmo!





We gave Zoe her own cake to eat up how ever she wanted to!!!


She loved it... well she loved the frosting!!!


But she didn't like that Aunt Kay put some on her nose!!!


After our little family party we went home and saw that our neighbors were out back taking pictures. Jersey is the other cute little girl. Zoe and her share a birthday!!! They are so cute!!!


Jersey wanted to give Zoe kisses and Zoe wasn't too excited about that!!!


Overall it was a great day!! We got to spend together celebrating the birth of our sweet baby girl... We love you baby Zoe!!!!

Bradon's Wedding

This weekend was Bradon and Michelle's wedding. They were married in the Seattle temple! We all wanted to go so we decided to drive the 16+ hours to Seattle Washington! Here are some photos from the long trip! At one of the gas stations ... the employee gave Zoe a sucker!!
But that wasn't the only thing she wanted to suck on!!!

We went swimming as often as we could!

The boys jumping into the pool!

We acually stayed right outside of Seattle, and we had to take a farry over to town... It was beautiful!!

While waiting outside for them to come out... we took a picture infront of the temple. It was really cold but it made some cute photos!!

Here are the newleyweds!!!!

Her shoes were so cute!!

They love Zoe and she adores both of them!!!

We we supposed to drive back on Saturday and Sunday, but we decided we needed one day out of the car. We took the day to walk around Seattle and explore! We went on their Duck Tour which was amazing! This picture is the tram to the tour.

The Duck tour was a land and water tour! The guy was so much fun and knew a ton about the city! Zoe liked the fact that the bus didn't have any windows and loved the wind in her face!! At the end of the tour we got these duck lips to quack at other tours!!!

Just another picture and the beautiful day!!!

Zoe was amazing the whole trip!! She was such a good girl on this long drive!! We gave her whatever we could to keep her happy... even straws!!!
