The Fall

Alright, so Kayson finally mastered the walking at 15 months! It's so crazy cause he could walk since like around one but he was always nervous to let go. So he has had 3 months of perfecting it. 2 nights ago he finally let go and is now a professional. He almost runs! Of course for some weird reason I haven't gotten any pictures of him walking but....I have pictures of the traumatic aftermath of his first big fall. He was cruising around in my mom's living room, fell forward and snagged the corner of the side table with the inside of his upper lip. I picked him up and blood was running down his chin out of his mouth. We ran into the bathroom and my mom got a towel, wet it and held it to his lip as much as he would let her. He wouldn't calm down, just cried and cried. So I walked him outside and of course he stopped crying cause he loves being outside. It kept bleeding for quite some time but not bad. He is doing good, his teeth are still in place and it seems to not bother him a whole lot. He did rip the inside muscle that holds the gums and lip together pretty deep, but all in all he is in good spirits. Surprisingly it hasn't stopped him from walking all over the place.

This picture is after we calmed him down and wiped the blood off, but you can see that it's all over the towel and his shirt. The pictures are in very bad lighting so obviously Jesse took them...Just kidding Jesse, our camera is not the greatest. They don't show how bad it really was, his lip swelled and blood in his mouth for 30 minutes. But you get what you get right!

Here are some pictures finally. They are kind of boring and not very many cause my batteries died. Jesse's family went camping this week so we went up on Wednesday to have dinner. It was fun it rained on us quiet a bit but the dinner was so good. Dutch oven is always so amazing! We had steaks, chicken, corn on the cob, potatoes and peach cobbler. It was pretty fun but all Kayson wanted to do is walk around but it was so muddy. I ended up giving in and letting him walk in it anyways. It was a good time. I like camping for like one day and then I am ready to go home so it was perfect. I will try to remember to take more pictures.

Okay so I know its been more than a month since I posted last. We hardly go anywhere or do anything exciting, and when we do I forget to take my camera. So I hope to get some pictures on here soon. But this is post is for Christine Cox. She is my cousin and Miss Sanpete County. She will be competing for Miss Utah on the 20th. There is an online poll that is on www.missutahpageant.org and you need to go to that site, click on contestants and scroll down to where you can vote for Miss Sanpete County. We all need to vote for her. She has worked so hard and even though it is just an online poll, it will be announced and she will get an award at the pageant. So most of you are related to her too so let's help her out. THANKS!! GO CHRISTINE!!!

St. George, Easter and baseball
I finally found time to put some pictures up. We went to St. George after Easter weekend and had a blast. Hanging by the pool, eating, relaxing, swimming, golfing and just enjoying the sun. We went with Jesse's whole family and had a blast.

We were able to go to the St. George Temple. It is so beautiful.

The boys golfing

We went to the St. George Museum of Wildlife. It was really awesome. They gave you these phone type things and you could listen to a ton of information about all of the animals. Kayson loved looking at the big animals, and liked the big ugly creepy bugs too. We obviously weren't ready for this picture but we only got a couple so I will give what I can. Plus the polar bear is huge!

They are in the middle of a big herd running and aren't even scared.

This picture is fuzzy of us, but the giraffe was my favorite so I had to show ya.

Easter at my mom's

Kayson loves to play basketball with his Uncles. He will literally pass it to them and try and get it from them and shoots it too. It is so cute. He will play for like an hour.

Easter stickers!

A cute folding chair grandma gave him. It's a frog and he loves it!

Kyle's Richfield baseball game. They lost but it was a close one. They didn't play very well that day.

Kayson and I watching the game with one of my hair's flying up.

Grandpa Chad is the Templars pitching coach. He loves it and is really good at it since he pitched for Snow College many moons ago. This is him giving signs to the catcher to tell the pitcher what to throw.

I love this picture. Kayson, Grandpa and Grandma.

Happy Birthday Kayson
Yep, it was Kayson's first birthday on Friday the 13th. Tammy, Kelly, Charle, Monique, Steve and Jen all came to the birthday party. Chad and Kyle couldn't make it cause they were in Kanab for Kyle's baseball game. Mike was working so he couldn't make it either. We ate Subway sandwiches, opened tons of presents, and then ate birthday cake. We had two cakes. One for the birthday boy to demolish by himself, and one for the rest of us. Kayson barely picked at his cake, so I pushed his hand in it, but then he got upset that he was all dirty. So he didn't even eat any. It was funny though. Kayson loves the movie Cars, so we had Car decorations and cake. It was way fun. I can't believe how time fly's! It's ridiculous. I love watching Kayson grow up and learn new things, but it is terribly sad too. He is the best son I could ask for. He is so smart and loves to learn new things. He is not shy, he will go to anybody. He loves to hug his stuffed animals and give them kisses. His favorite game to play is ball. Anytime he see's a hoop he wants to play ball. He has the most gorgeous eye's. They are big and bright blue, with LONG eyelashes! He loves to talk, on and on about the lights, hats, dad and everything he see's. I love him so much and though I am so excited to see him grow into the person he wants to be, I am so sad to see the days keep going by. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAYSON! I love you!
