Christmas!

Christmas was a fun this year. Besides winning the MONEY JAR, we

had such a good time with Beck and all out other family members.

We stayed with my parents in Twin Falls

and had a blast.

I was worried that once Beck found his stocking with

BUZZ LIGHT YEAR in it

he wasn't going to want to open any other

presents.

I was wrong! He loved tearing into his presents.

He was spoiled.

I don't think Santa realized how much he had brought!

His Christmas PJ's... Too small!

As you can see his little belly hung out the bottom.

For Aaron and I, Christmas came a little bit later.

We decided to take a day

and spend it alone... ALL DAY!

Beck went to his Aunt Deena's house while we went crazy!

First stop, MOVIE!

I Loved being at the movie theater.

We use to go all the time, until little B came along.

Then we went to lunch.

We picked Beckham up and took him home for a little nap.

Mikkel came up and stayed the night with him while we went out!

We had the whole night to ourselves.

We rented a hotel room and spent the night out on the town

(Walmart and Home Depot)

I am so pathetic, I ended up crashing at 9:30pm.

My only hope is that tonight, I can stay awake to

see the ball drop in NYC!

Shoes, glorious shoes!

It doesn't matter what he's wearing on top,

There will be shoes on the bottom!

I am telling you, he's pushing the envelope.

He's daring to wear Jessica Simpson Pumps

with camo pants and orange T-shirt.

He's even willing to wear riding boots that

go all the way up past his thighs!

The sky is the limit for this guy.

Today, our latest and greatest purchase was his new

snow boots. They're TOO big

because his feet are TOO fat to fit in his real

size of a shoe. So he's able to put

his boots on himself.

Can't go wrong with snow boots and

Buzz Light Year P.J's.

(pjs are too small, but it's his favorite pair)

I only hope he keeps his great fashion sense

up in High School. Then I won't have to worry

about the LADIES!

The Latest.

It has been awhile since my Last post.

I am a complete slacker.

I wish I had a good reason why I haven't posted

but I all I got is, I am LAZY!

GOod enough...

So Beckham... This kid keeps me on my toes.

He has always hated having covers on him at night.

He will get out from underneath them

no matter how many times a night

I sneak into his room and cover him up.

SOLUTION!

Zip up fleece PJ's with the feet!

Well, it worked good for about 1 week.

This little guys loves to unzip them and have

his belly hang out so he can rub his chest!

This wasn't too bad, I would go in and pick him up

while he was asleep and zip the pj's back up.

This past week he has started to unzip and take off

his diaper and pee all over his crib!

YIKES.

This has happened about 3 times,

all in the past week.

We are back to the 2 piece PJ's

and so far so good.

Hopefully he doesn't start taking his pants off.

I am really not looking forward to the plastic sheet days!

It's a good thing this little guys is so cute

or else I might actually go CRAZY!

Trunk Or Treat

This is really beckham's first year to go out and enjoy Halloween

and BOY oh BOY did he ever enjoy it.

Beck went with his cousins Trunk or Treating tonight.

They always have the BEST costumes!

Lookin' good Olivia.

Beck could not wait until he could run around in the parking lot.

We spent the first 30 minutes trying to get him

to stay still.

This is what Aaron would look like with hair.

SEXY!

It didn't take too long before this little Dragon

was dancing in the streets!

Believe me, he's got some good moves.

Whenever we came across a car with suckers,

Beck would get Super Exited

and let out one of his famous, OHHHH!

It was close to the end and Beck came ran into this little guy.

They stared at each other for a minute

then He took Beckham's sucker!

Beck didn't like him too much...

After he made the rounds and showed off his dance moves to everyone

he sat on the curb and checked out all of his goods.

He made out very well.

He LOVED being out with everyone.

Truly all he wanted to do

was walk around and wave at everyone. He could have cared less

about the candy (that's for Aaron and ME)!

This kid already knows how to PARTY!

He made Halloween FUN AGAIN!!

We Love you Beckham.

Happy HAlloWeen, my little DraGon.

Pumpkin Walk

I have to admit, I had never heard of a Pumpkin Walk before yesterday.

Aaron's family all got together

and we braved the cold weather to check out

the GREAT PUMPKIN WALK!

(it was really cold)

They had a bunch of different pumpkin displays.

Most of which were Disney theme.

This one was Thomas the Train.

My favorite part of the night was the

HEAD CUT OUT THINgIES!!!

I LovE THEM.

This picture maybe our Christmas Cards this year!

All the sister-in-laws with our mother-in-law as princesses.

One of my Favorite pics,

Uncle Drew!

All the Winder's with their Shelley High PRIDE!

GO RUSSETS.

Halloween is the best.

I love having crazy things to do.

The only thing I won't do is haunted houses,

TOo sCARY!

I can't wait to TRUNK OR TREAT.

Fall is in the Air!

It's October and we're feeling the fall weather.

Beck had a quick trip the pumpkin patch with his cousins.

He conquered the maze to find the tractor, which he couldn't get enough of!

He was more excited to push it, rather than ride it.

Beck, just like his mom, cannot pass up

getting his picture taken in one of these things!

Good thing he has such fun cousins that join in with him!

Fall is my favorite time of year. I love the cool, crisp air,

Leaves changing color and falling to the ground,

and it is the start of the holiday season.

I am looking forward to spending time with

all our family and close friends.

L.A.Z.Y.

(pic. has nothing to do with the post)

Last weekend I was out for a jog and I came across

a house in the neighborhood next to mine,

it had been toilet papered.

It was fun to see, I can't remember the last time

I had seen a house that had been hit!

As I kept on jogging, in the same neighborhood

I came across another house, toilet papered!

HAHAHA, good times.

But, as I kept running I started to think about the

houses that had been hit and I have to say,

I am a little disappointed in the younger generations.

No toilet paper in the trees, House tops were bare,

a few rolls draped over the bushes and wrapped around the mailbox. That's it.

BOOO. The kids did a crappy job.

As I crossed back into my neighborhood, I saw one more house

toilet papered!

Equally disappointed!

L.A.Z.Y.

The kids these days are lazy, they can't even put a little effort into

toilet papering a house right.

COME ON KIDS, TAKE SOME PRIDE IN YOUR WORK!

Last bit of sun

I am determined not to take for granted the nice weather we are still having.

Rumor has it, it will all change next week... BOOOO!

We have been enjoying the sun all week long.

Tonight we took Beck out on a walk

and actually let him WALK!

He loved it!

When we got home the sun was just starting to go down

and Beck played with the hose and got

all wet!

I loved it!

It was quiet outside, perfect weather, Beck was excited,

After awhile he was soaking wet, tired, and ready for bed.

I am LOVING the weather right now.

30 day Challenge

I am not sure where I saw this challenge

but as soon as I saw it

I knew it would be something I would like to try.

30 days without eating out!

Repeat... 30 DAYS without eating out!

I cannot remember the last time I went over a week

without eating out.

We do great during the week

but once the weekend comes, it is party time at our house!

No cooking and no doing dishes!

Well... Not for the next 30 days.

I have my menu for the WHOLE week and I will be cooking!

Any other takers on the challenge?

18 Months

Yep! This little Fella is 18 Months old...

It's hard to remember what it was like before he came into our lives.

Aaron and I get such a kick out of him(as I am sure all parents do).
