Will can walk!

Blah Blah Blah

So I haven't been in the mood to post lately. My parents dropped the bomb that they are getting a divorce...after 30+ years of marriage. That sucks! It's also FREEZING COLD here, like 18 degrees cold, and I've got cabin fever bad. My Flip video also broke :( so no cool videos to post.

But hey, interest rates on 30 year fixed dropped into the 4's today, so business should be good for Jason...that is one GREAT thing! So my friends, if you've been thinking of refinancing, now is the time. Being trapped at home also gave me time to take down the Christmas tree finally, and clean the fridge. I've resolved to be a better housekeeper this year, amongst other things. So far so good!

1 Year Pics

Will speaks!

So Will has been saying "Good" officially for a few weeks now. I'm not quite sure if he knows what it means. Jason is convinced it's his word for everything like "smurf" is for the Smurf's. Well today after hours of "good, good, good" we went up to have a bath and get ready for bed. Jason has been confined to bed today because he is sick and I'm trying to keep the germs minimized. So anyway, I am trying to get his jammies on and he is escaping, trying to climb on the bed so Jason will rescue him and he said "Dada" several times and reaching out to Jason. It was so sweet!

So I was hoping to post his 1 year old pictures, but Portrait Innovations messed up and didn't burn the CD so I have to trek back to Provo tomorrow to pick it up. I should have them up tomorrow.

Christmas Mini-Vaca

So Jason & I decided to take a mini-vaca instead of gifts to each other this year. It was our first night away from the baby, and boy was it fun! We spent the night at Zermatt in Midway and had dinner at the Blue Boar Inn. It was awesome! We also went cross country skiing and tubing in Soldier Hollow and it was soooooooooo freaking fun!!!! I can't believe I've lived in Utah my whole life and never tried cross country before. The video is of us going down the tubing hill which was a blast and I highly recommend to you friends, especially if you have kids. They will dig it!

We waited exactly 1 day after his first birthday to leave Will. He did great at grandma & grandpa's house and barely missed us at all. Thanks so much to mom & dad for giving us the night away!

Happy Birthday Will!

Well, we survived the first year and Will had such a fun birthday! He got an awesome bear that talks to him from grandma & grandpa (which hopefully we can keep away from Bas as long as possible) and a big truck he can ride on, walk with, and stack blocks in. Grandma, strike that, "Auntie" Mina sent him some money & a card to pick out whatever he wants, but it has been delayed in the holiday mail.

Merry Christmas!
