What have we been up to?

It has been a fun last couple of weeks. We are keeping busy.For an eagle scout project, a kid here in Tremonton, had a baby farm animals petting zoo. Brayden loved it.The baby chicks where his favorite
Brayden has become a pretty good climber. I found he standing on the counter licking the cookies. He is definitely a 2 year old. I've looked into Fedex shipping him off to Grandma some days. But we love him and he keeps us smiling. Speech therapy is going well. He love going to class and slowly more words are coming. Most of his vocabulary is food related... He like to eat!

Whitney is getting older and older everyday. I'd say bigger but she is now 8 months old and about 12 lbs. She has finally grown out of newborn clothes!! She is now sitting up all by herself and best of all sleeping from 7:15 pm to 6:30 am. It has been wonderful. Physical therapy is going great we are working on rolling and getting into crawling positions. The last month and a half has been fun to watch how much she is changing. She is now reaching and playing with toys and interacts with us. Her smiles and giggles are so precious. We go back down to Primary Children the end of June and beginning of July for more follow-ups. We are so blessed to have her angel spirit in our home.
This is her about a week old This is her now (same bear, promise)
Brayden lives for his "choo-choo's" One morning he was eating breakfast and put his cereal into the train, take it around the track once, then eat it. It took him about an hour to eat breakfast.

We've been waiting out some crazy storms. And we've put our yard in... finally. It took 2 weekends. The first we had tons of help from neighbors. The next weekend everyone was gone (Memorial weekend is not a good time to need help) so Hillary and Spencer came and saved us. THANK YOU!!!!

Beautiful Song

Jon Schmidt is one of my favorite artist. This is his new song and it quickly became one of my favorites. I love piano music (I only wish I could play) and this song is so upbeat and peaceful.
