One year older... and hopfully wiser, too!
[Pretty Toes]
This morning Easton saw me painting my toes. His response was that they were pretty toes, and he wanted pretty toes, too! I hesitated, and said that he could have pretty toes when we finished cleaning up our toys. So, he cleaned up his toys and wanted pretty toes! I hesitated again and said that he could have pretty toes after we changed his diaper, thinking that maybe he would forget about it. But, he didn't forget and I decided that it would be okay for my son to have pretty toes if that is what he really wanted! I picked out my most neutral color of toe polish (out of the 2 colors that I own) and painted his toes. I didn't do a very good job, and considered taking the polish off and trying again... then I remembered that he really is a boy!
Having Fun Still...
I am still having so much fun with my camera! Mix it with photoshop, and it's even better! Hopefully I can keep this up and get better at it!
Also, I have a feeling that this is the only beanie that this boy will wear during the winter season. I had tried to get him to wear several different ones before this one, and he wouldn't wear it for even a second. Then I got this one out. It's Dan's "awesome BYU football hat"!
At least it will keep his head warm this winter... even if it's way too big, and it doesn't match his winter coat.
Easton's Birthday!
Easton's Birthday was on the 16th. I was planning a very small party for him and a couple of his cousins to really just play together. Unfortunately he was really sick with croup, so I cancelled the party. But not all was lost, we still celebrated! It was more low key than I was planning, but I think that he still had fun! The BYU game was on [which Easton really loves anyway] and so we watched that, had cupcakes and opened presents! The highlight of the evening was definately the TOOLS that he got from Dan and I. This kid is STILL in 7th heaven!
I love his little tool belt!
Dan's parents and little brother came to watch the BYU game, and this picture is so classic. Dan's dad is watching football, his little brother texting, and his mom is cross-stitching.
He did a great job at blowing out the candle all on his own.
You can't tell, but his party colors were blue and white in honor of the BIG (too bad that they lost) game!
Easton's here just checking out all the goodies!
I have to add this side note: Right now he calls tape measures: Costco'sI think that it's pretty cute.
Bridal Veil Falls
We decided to take advantage of the last days of warmer weather, and we went up the Provo canyon and "hiked" up to bridal veil falls. It was really so so pretty, and the weather was absolutely perfect! Easton really liked the water fall as well.A New Blog.
No, I am not changing our family's blog. Dan & I have been having so much fun with our camera these past couple of weeks that it has sort of become an obsession. We want to share with everyone the pictures that we have been taking, and hopefully the {amazing} progress as time goes by. But in doing that, I didn't want to distract from the purpose of my family blog. So, I started a new blog for all of our crazy pictures.
{TwO}
On Thursday, Easton will be having his 2nd birthday! I am so grateful for the blessing that he is in our lives. Dan and I are truly blessed to have such a happy little boy to call our own. I can't believe that he has grown up so much and so quickly! Easton has taught me so much and has brought me more happiness in the last 2 years than I ever could have imagined!
~Happy Birthday Little Dude~
Everyone that knows you falls in love instantly.
Happy Birthday to me! {and Christmas}
I had kind of a bad couple of days, so to cheer me up, Dan decided to give me my birthday gift a couple of weeks early this year! All I can say is that I am So SpOilEd! Thanks Dan for being so considerate, and finding the best way to distract my mind!
My Gift? A Nikon D90.
(I did use the word spoiled).
So here are some of my messing around shots. I am slowly getting used to the idea of actually having to try to figure out how to use this thing... but I cannot be any more excited!
This camera is amazing! I can only imagine how it will be when I can actually use it correctly!
