A Few Things I Missed

Noodle's 6th Birthday On May 7th



I can't let this one slip bye, especially since he's aged more this year than all the other ones put together. Do you think it has something to do with the above ear pulling? We really do our best to teach River the meaning of the word gentle, but he's fast and easily excitable, so I am very thankful Noodle is patient with him. He takes it out on me later in the night, but River is bite/scratch free, so all is well. We love you Noodle Battlecat Bear.


Bear's Father's Day Gift and Picture On Father's Day




I did a couple Father's Day posts, but I wanted to share Bear's cute gift. If you can't tell, it is a tee shirt and it says, "I am this happy, because my dad is that awesome!" I just love these father/son pictures. They are both so handsome and Bear could be a hair model in this picture.


Our Day In The Mountains






We haven't braved an overnight camping trip with River yet. I know a lot of people do it, but River did not take to sleeping naturally, so I am gun shy of anything that keeps him from taking a nap. We did get to fake camp and spend the whole evening up in the mountains. It was nice to get out of the city, see the milky way and then go sleep in our beds.


River and Rocky





River has a best friend named Rocky. I love when these two play together. They are very similar in their temperments, so a lot of sharing, hugging and niceness goes on. Plus Rocky has a fun pool and if you haven't noticed, it is HOTT up in here.

This Is The Place






Our fertility clinic sponsored a free day at This Is The Place. It was so fun. We had an awesome catered lunch, got to see the sights and River rode a horse for the first time. He did great, but was more interested in the "fan" that the horses were tethered to, so they would walk in a circle. What can I say, the boy spots fans everywhere. I am so glad I could experience this Utah monument on a crowd free day. Crowds, heat and babies do not mix... but you can't stay locked in your house either, so I love when adventures work out. Thanks RRC and if anyone needs help having a baby, this is the place... get it?
