1st Birthday

We had a small family celebration for P3's birthday. I think he got the perfect amount of presents. Not too much to be overwhelmed, but a few new fun things.

 

 

I just got a little smash cake from Smiths. It had tons of frosting, and P3 did a great job at destroying it!

 

 

 

P3 did a great job at smashing that cake!

We gave P3 a boogie board to draw on. He really likes it, and so do his older siblings.

12 Month Stats:

Weight: 19 lbs 3 oz (17th percentile)

Length: 29.5 in (36th percentile)

 P3 still does not like the doctor. All the kids ended up getting shots at this visit, and none of them appreciated it. P3 is healthy and happy though, no concerns! He is a pro at walking now. He drinks out of a sippy cup during the day, but still wants to nurse in the morning and at night. He doesn't really talk other than saying "Mom" and "yum". He is good at pointing to things though and getting what he wants. He sleeps through the night pretty well. He still loves his momma more than anyone.

 

We sure love you P3! We can't imagine our family without you!

State Fair

We made our annual visit to the State Fair. P1 enjoyed being our guide and using the map.

We saw a reptile exhibit and show. The kids really enjoyed the animal statues. During the show, they had a little armadillo that was adorable!

 

 

Preschool

P2 started Preschool! She was very excited to start, and is going to the same one that P1 went to. There are 7 kids, 5 girls and 2 boys. Most are in the neighborhood, so that will be nice! She did great on her first day! 

 

Logan Trip

We had another wedding in Logan. It was actually for the same family! The bishop of our student ward had 3 kids get married this summer. We love their family, and also love any excuse to go to Logan. We ate at Center Street Grill, one of our favorites.

Visiting Grandpa at work:

Someone ran into our mailbox with an ATV or something like that. Made our mailbox a bit wobbly, but it is still standing.
