HELICOPTER

For Easter, Clark got a remote control helicopter. He loves it, but Nick loves it even more! The first time he saw one he would SCREAM from excitement and terror at the same time. Now he just gets excited. Anyway... Its pretty cute.

JUST A THOUGHT~

Clark and I are quickly approaching our 3 year anniversary. As I was thinking of our marriage and all we have been through, I realized Nick has been with us for half of our marriage! Wow! For some reason that seems so crazy to me! Our family has been so blessed. Time flies so fast. I wish sometimes it didn't. There is so much I wish I could just keep forever and never change. But, we cant, really. Time does go on. All we can do is love the time we are in. There are still a lifetime of good times to come! I just hope I never let anything slip by. So here's to the next few years! Live and love. Never take it for granted!

EASTER EGG HUNT




The Easter Bunny came to Grandma Call's house and Nick was able to find the eggs! He had a lot of fun discovering all the colorful eggs with treats inside! His cute outfit was a Easter gift from Nick's Mema. Thanks to both the grandmas for all you do!


A ST. GEORGE EASTER



I have fond memories of going to St. George for Easter. It seems we did that in my family quite a bit growing up. We were able to come this Easter weekend too! Nick had allot of fun with Mema. We got to see the pretty red rock, go to the park and learn some golf moves (thanks to Gary)! Nick especially loved chasing the cat. We had a wonderful trip!

TRIP TO THE ZOO









Clark had a long weekend so we decided to go to the zoo. It was a little chilly but so much fun! It is so fun to see Nick's face light up when he looks at different things. Although I was sad we couldn't see the Kangaroos this time. Oh well, next time... It was a fun day.

MY FAVORITE SCRIPTURE


32 Behold, the hour cometh, yea, is now come, that ye shall be scattered, every man to his own, and shall leave me alone: and yet I am not alone, because the Father is with me.

33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

St John 16:32-33


When I was in High School my Mom found out she had an aneurism. It was a very scary time for our family. She had many surgeries with gifted doctors. Some surgeries went well, some did not. It was at this time when I discovered this scripture. It gave me much comfort to know that even though hard times will come, we can "overcome the world". Even though this experience happened years ago, this scripture is still close to my heart.

YOU ARE MY SUNSHINE

You are my sunshine
My only sunshine
You make me happy
When skies are gray
You'll never know dear
How much I love you
Please don't take
My sunshine away

SPRING TIME!!

Spring is my favorite time of year. The hint of warmth right after a long few months of snow is the best feeling in the world! Nick and I have been doing a lot of walking. We live just a few blocks away from the hospital fields, so we stroller over there and play and play. He really enjoys walking all around and discovering things outside his little world indoors. He is fascinated with the cars all around. He watches each car as they drive by. So here's to a fun spring!

18 MONTHS OLD


As a 18 month old...


  • Nicks new favorite activity is to go on walks. He loves the fresh air and holding on to Moms fingers.

  • Nick is also such a great basketball player. I think he is a natural. Every time he makes a basket he claps and gets a big grin on his face.

  • Loves to make messes, then clean them up!

  • Waits by the window for visitors then jumps up and down when he sees a familiar car or face.

  • Nick is really good at waving goodbye.

  • And steals hearts away with his blowing kisses.

  • Loves to eat everything... when he wants it... His favorites foods are yogurt, hot cereals, potatoes and always pretzels for snacks.

  • Bath-time is his favorite time of day.

  • Giving high fives.

  • Turns on and off all the lights.

  • Nick really enjoys playdates. He will do great in Nursery next week!

  • Really likes making noise with toys mom has created for him.

  • Nick loves car rides.

  • Dancing to all the crazy music his mom listens to. His favorite to boogie out to now is Van Morrison!

  • Enjoys the time he has with his Grandparents, Aunts and Uncles.

  • Climbing on everything he can! Couch, table, chairs, tv stand, drawers... you name it.

  • Nickolas can growl! Don't ask me how he learned that one. It is the funniest thing to hear.

  • Play pica boo with mom and dad.

  • Gets excited every time he sees a fan, moving or not.

  • Coloring on his big coloring pad. Cries everytime we put it away.
