All about Christopher!


It has been a while! This is what the cutests little boy in the WORLD is up to . . .

Christopher turned 1!!!! He had two parties, two froggy cakes, and LOTS of great celebrations and wonderful gifts. Thank you!!



Froggy cake #2! Thrilled that he gets to eat ANOTHER yummy cake!
Christopher loves . . .


to take baths! You wouldn't know it but he had just actually been in the tub, and was dry, dressed and just waiting for mom to turn her back for one second so he could dive into his sisters bath! He was quickly dried, dressed and . . .


Just waiting for his mother to turn her back AGAIN to dive AGAIN into his sister's bath!! You think his mother would learn!?!?


Christopher also loves to . . .

EAT!!!

CJ loves to smile, to laugh, to be cuddled. He loves to figure things out, and to find something new. He loves to play catch, and give high five. He loves his sister and can't wait to do everything like her! CJ is very sweet! And, lets just face it . . .

He is SO DARN CUTE!!!!

At Last!

Savy says Mickey Mouse gives "very sloppy kisses"!
Sleeping Beauty's Castle

CJ even loved it!


Waiting to board Nemo's Submarine adventure.


Savy was a little shy with Tinkerbell, Iridessa, and Rosetta. Tinkerbell was THE nicest and sweetest of all the characters we met.


Playhouse Disney Live. Savy LOVED it! All the kids were singing and dancing. She was very into the show. Highly recommend this.

Ariel's Princess Lunch. Savy ate lunch at Ariel's Grotto and met Ariel, Cinderella, Belle, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty.

One of Savy's favorite rides, Alice in Wonderland.
(It was so warm that the plastic elastics that were in her hair all broke! We were having way too much fun to go back to the hotel to fix it. She is ALWAYS SUPER CUTE so it doesn't matter)

The tea cups with daddy. Another one of Savy's favorites!


Goofey fun! He was trying to pull her hands out of her pockets but the cute girl wouldn't budge. The line behind us all had a good giggle.



Goofing around!

DISNEYLAND!



Brandon and I decided to do something a little bit spontaneous. We decided, about two weeks ago, to take the kids and drive to Disneyland. I was a little worried about all the usuals, the 10 HOUR drive, both of the kids being too young to enjoy it, being tired, sleeping in a hotel room together, etc. But . . . IT WAS FANTASTIC!!!!!!



The kids did GREAT on the ride. It wasn't perfect, but we survived. WE left on Saturday afternoon and drove until midnight, making it almost there. On Sunday we spent some time at the beach. It was a little cloudy, which kept the people away so it wasn't crowded at all.



Christopher loved the beach!


He especially loves the treats associated with the beach!

We spent all day Monday and Tuesday at Disneyland. The kids were tired but still did great! We introduced Savannah to a few things and then let her mostly choose what we did. She LOVED the Teacups, Alice in Wonderland, Snow White, King Tritons Merry-go-Round, and Little Land (what she called It's a Small World).

ROARRR!!

It is finally park weather and WE ARE EAT'N it up! Savy and CJ had a great time at the park with friend Josh and Rachel. It was PERFECT weather and Savy only growled at, oh maybe, two other kids on the playground. Wahoo! On the down side, though, she did learn a new word from a little girl there, who obviously had older siblings.
Other than that one discovery it WAS GREAT! Thanks Laytons!

Happy Easter!!!

Our attempt at Easter Pictures.


Good thing they are STINK'N cute becuase they certainly don't have a photographer for a mother. It would have helped to have them not looking DIRECTLY into the sun. But, like I said, with or without the photographer they are CUTE!!


Savy is so much fun! This age is the best! This is the first year she has understood any of the fun fictional characters that come around holidays. She very excitedly placed her butterfly easterbasket on the couch on saturday night and was eager to get to it sunday morning. Thank goodness the Easter Bunny only left a few suckers by way of treats! What a smart bunny! The lack of candy was rememdied later that day by a KILLER easter egg hunt at the Leonard's. Savy had her basket piled so high with eggs that she could barely carry it!

When we were watching conference last week she was sitting by us coloring and wasn't paying much attention until President Monson started talking. She stopped coloring and got very excited and said, "Hey! He's in Nursery!" Yes, there is a picture of President Monson on the wall in Nursery. And, WAHOO . . . she noticed!!

Finally! After almost nine months, and MANY false alarms, CJ has 2 cute teeth!! It took about two days to convince his dad that there were in fact teeth in there since it has been at least five months of "crying wolf". And, how could I ever forget how fast these kids get! He is ALL OVER!!! He has found the vents under the sinks in our bathrooms and BOLTS for them anytime the door is left open. He is so happy and just full of joy! Nothing makes him happier, though, than a vanilla wafer and a bottle!
