Happy Halloween!!

Ander was the cutest little stinkiest skunk this year and boy did we have a full day of fun! We went over to Trista's house first and got some pics with her most adorable little turtle, Beckham. Then we went with my sister and Dawson to Robyn's old work where Ander and Dawson were admired by all. :) After that we headed to Chuckle's work to visit him and then we went trick or treating to a few neighbors house's later on. Ander was a little cranky most of the day because he seems to have come down with a cold (big surprise) and he missed his afternoon nap. We had a pretty fun day though and ate lots of candy, i just feel bad for my little guy who is always sick. Ander will actually be getting tubes in his ears on Nov. 12th at Primary Children's Hospital, so i think that should make a big difference and also feel free to send flowers (ha ha). I can't wait to see pics of everyone else's Halloween pics, so be sure to post them! I didn't get very many with Ander smiling, but you can still see how funny and cute he looked.

Introducing Davis Jon Aubrey!!

My brother Jon and his wife Becky had their fifth child on October 25th, and he is such a dang cute baby, just like the rest of their kids. Becky is such a champ, she delivered Davis with no medication, all naturale, i cannot even imagine doing such a thing! Ander and I went over to Becky and Jon's house today to visit the new little guy and Robyn, Dawson, Leslie, and Taylor were there too. It was fun to see all the babies and hang out with everyone. As you can see in the pics, Davis has alot of dark hair and he is a cute tiny little thing. We took a pic of all of the mom's and their babies too, just to see the difference in their sizes, because they will all be friends and playing together in just a little while. I also love this pic of Sammee playing with Ander, she is such a good cousin. Congrats again Jon and Beck, love you guys!!

On a side note, Chuck tore a muscle in his back today and i have never seen him in so much pain. I had to take him to InstaCare so he could get some muscle relaxers ASAP. He is doing a little better tonight, but he can still hardly talk or sit, poor guy.

Another Milestone!

Ander just started taking his first steps last week and today Chuck's mom came over and caught some of his walking on camera (please excuse my cheesy smile in the pics). He is still too scared to full out walk, but he is pretty darn close, scary :). Thanks Karen, we loved having you come over today and for taking such good pics! I cannot believe how fast my baby is growing up! Ander has also been saying a few words and making sounds, it is so cute and i am so glad i get to stay home with him and not miss out on any of it!

"Thriller" & Attack of the Vomit and Infection Monster

So, once again Ander has a double ear infection, which means he will be getting tubes in his ears. I actually think that will help him and make him feel alot better, so i am looking forward to it, even though it is a little scary. Of course, with the new ear infections, comes the diarrhea and now a load of vomit, which Ander has never done before. Seeing your precious little baby throw up, is one of the saddest experiences i have ever witnessed so far being a mother. We were up with him half the night and it was awful. I do not know if Ander now has the flu or what, but we all just had our flu shots, so he better not be getting the flu again this year, i hope. Before the vomitting started yesterday, Chuck watched Dawson and Ander for Robyn and I so we could go see Thriller by the Odyssey Dance Theatre Company. It was really fun to see and a good break for both of us. We were even able to go eat dinner at one of our fave restaurants, Stone Ground, and it was sooo yummy. Thanks to my wonderful hubby for babysitting for us and taking care of diarrhea messes. Hopefully Ander will be doing better by my next post. The pics above are of Robyn and I before we left to see Thriller and of Chuck trying to feed Ander and Dawson at the same time, which you really can't tell, but that is what told me he took a pic of, so i thought it would be funny to post.

White Trash Pumpkin Patch

We couldn't find a pumpkin patch by our house and so we decided to go buy pumpkins at Walmart. So here are our white trash pics of getting pumpkins at Walmart instead of a cute pumpkin patch. Ander loved the pumpkins though, he was even able to pick one up, what a strong fella! I have also attached a few random pics, since i am obsessed with my child. :)

New Hair Cut and Funny Face

Ander just started making this face and Chuck and I both die laughing when he does it and so he keeps doing it. He is becoming quite the entertainer, i love it! These still pics do not do his face justice. Chuck also cut Ander's hair really short, since it grows so fast, and he still looks so stinkin cute!!

Conference Fun!

I am sick with a cold and it is rainy and yucky outside, so Ander and i are staying indoors and having a great time watching conference today as you can see.

Ander & Dawson, Cousins Forever!

Thanks Karen (Chuck's Mom) for taking such great pics! Ander was really tired and sick that day, but they still turned out really cute! Thanks again, what would we do without our awesome photographer, mother-in-law, and grandma!!

Just For Fun!

Here are some random pics and some pics from today of Ander and his cousin Brielle (she is sooo adorable)! She and Ander were trying to put their hands in eachother's mouth's while i was trying to take the pics, so these were the best shots i could get. Kirstin (my sis in law and Brielle's mom) and my mother in law met Ander and I for lunch today and then they came over to hang out, which was really fun. Thanks for coming over guys!!

Update on Ander's ear infection. I took him to the dr. once again on Monday because he seemed to be having an allergic reaction to his medication he was taking for his ear infection and of course, he still had really bad diarrhea. The dr. told me to take him off of the medication and just hope that the infection will go away on it's own, that is a little concerning to me, but that is where we are now. He is still is as cute and as amazing as ever though! (Can you tell i am a little obsessed and pic crazy?) :)
