Silly Faces

Tanner is our silly face maker. As soon as the camera comes out so does Tanner's silly faces. I took the kids to a studio to get their pictures taken in their easter clothes, and Tanner thought it was pretty funny to make faces for that camera too. I have to admit it was kind of funny for a few pictures, but come on buddy I was hoping for some good pictures.

This is Tanner making a silly face at Lexi's birthday party. Both sets of grandparents, Jeff and I got Lexi this little kitchen for her birthday present. I think Tanner was more excited about it than Lexi was.

We were taking the kids picture in front of the christmas tree on the Sunday before Christmas because Lexi got the cutest dress and jacket for her birthday (not the best picture to see the dress though). Sure enough, Tanner started to make those famous faces for the camera.

Isn't this a cute picture. By now you can see that this a classic Tanner picture. This is at the Barlow christmas party and he just opened up his awesome present, and pulled an awesome face for the camera.

Tanner and Lexi at Grandma & Grandpa Barlow's house getting ready to go outside and play on the ice pond, and the big snow hill grandpa made with the tractor.

Tanner and Jeff playing with the blocks. Tanner loves playing with his blocks, and this lasy Sunday afternoon they made this tall tower. One of the only things Tanner likes better than playing with blocks is having someone play blocks with him.

Our sweet little Nixon

<

Nixon is growing up so fast. Especially lately he is doing alot of new things. Nixon just turned 7 months last week and his first tooth just barely cut through, and I can see the second tooth is close. Hopefully now he'll start sleeping better. He's not a bad sleeper, it's just that I wish I could sleep through the night. You would think that I would be use to it by now, after having 3 kids one after a another.

You see what I'm saying, Nixon is getting to be such a big boy. For about a month Nixon has been getting up on his hands and knees and rocking back and forth. I think he will probably crawl soon. He can go backwards, but when he tries to go forward he doesn't move his hands and so he face plants into the carpet. Nixon already can get to where he wants to go by rolling around so when he does start crawling it won't be that big of a change.


Oh how time flies. My little baby isn't going to be a baby for very much longer. Soon he will be walking and won't want to cuddle. Guess it will be time for another one, but that isn't happening any time soon. We love our little Nixon so much he has been a wonderful new addition to our little family. He is a blessing to our life along with Tanner and Lexi, and they all bring us much joy and happiness.

Day at Willow Park

We went to willow park earlier in the month of April. It was starting to feel like spring outside (for a few days anyway) and we needed to get out of the house. At the park the weather was still a little chilly, but that didn't seem to bother the kids one bit. We went with Grandma, Steph and her girls. The kids had a lot of fun seeing the animals. They especially liked feeding the ducks. After seeing the animals we went to the playground. It was a big nice playground and the only thing the kids did was go up and down the big red slide. We went to McDonalds and let the kids play some more in the play land. I think they were pretty worn out (which was the plan) because we went home and they all took a good nap. It was a very fun day!!!
