My baby

My little baby is 7 months old now! What?!?! He's starting to get around pretty good these days. He's such a fun little baby, so happy and always keeps us laughing. He laughs a lot himself, but he laughs the hardest (you know the gut/belly laugh) when Lexi or Jace are doing something funny, its never for Tyson or I...I think it's adorable that Lexi and Jace love him so much!

Here's some of his new tricks...look at that muscle definition :-)

4 years old!

Jace turned 4 on April 30th. Where has the time gone? It was a very low key birthday, especially since we already did their birthday before we left Virginia and we had just gotten to our place two days before. The morning started off with presents, of course. We then had breakfast and spent the rest of the morning playing games. We unpacked for a couple hours in the afternoon and then headed over to my parents place for the weekend. He was so excited to see his cousins. We LOVE being so close, 1 hr and 34 min. close!!!

Moab

While we were in Utah we took a little trip down to Moab with the whole Crane family. We had such a great time! Combined we all took A LOT of pictures so here are just a few.

I just love this picture of Coleson and grandma, it is so precious!

Doesn't she just look so excited to try without her training wheels??? haha, we are still working on that one. She's such a cautious girl, any bobble and she automatically puts her foot down. She'll get it someday :-)

Hard core! Yes, Marissa even went for a ride, 2 1/2 weeks after a C Section!

Devin on the other hand, wasn't so nervous about riding Lexi's bike with no training wheels!

Tyson

While the others were riding slick rock, we decided to hike it....until it started raining.

We went to hike Arches, which lasted 20 min... it started pouring rain

Taking cover for a little bit

I thought this was just an awesome pic. I think its Devin.

Strolling the town

ooh, fancy!

While we were checking out the town we saw a whole bunch of these caterpillars. They were all over the place. The kids thought they were awesome.

Isn't my husband so strong?

Egg hunt

The kids were so cute dying easter eggs and doing their easter egg hunt. Jace was cracking us up! He would get so excited about finding the eggs and would try and run faster than Lex to get them. They couldn't believe that the easter bunny put all these eggs all over the place just for them!

Utah fam/friends

We got to spend a day with Grandpa Crane.

Had lunch with grandma/pa Walter...and my aunt and Uncle Brent and Marilyn and cousin Matt

And my friend Andi! Here is her little boy Drew, Coleson, and Aveya (Marissa's baby)

Lehi Rec Pool

While we were in Utah we went to the Lehi Rec Center pool. It was so much fun, except the part where we forgot to bring towels and the lady that took 30 min. in the family dressing room, where our clothes were, to get ready.

Lexi is a little fishy

Tired baby!

Isn't this the greatest idea? A johnny jumper in a pool...love it!

family pics

These were just some fun pictures, after we had professional family pictures taken.

What up thug?

This is the same place and pose we did for our wedding announcements... Don't we look the same, 8 years later???

Easter Pics

Here are some pictures from Easter. I don't think they need much more of an explanation :-)
