UH-OH

So Nick said his first word this morning!! I was feeding him some breakfast and accidental dripped some on his high chair. "Uh-oh", I said. And wiped it up. Then as I was giving him another bite he said "uh-oh"! I was so excited I almost cried. Then he said it again. Then I called Clark in the room to hear him. And of course Nick didn't say it again... until Clark wasn't there. I'm sure we will be hearing a lot more of it the next little while. My little boy is getting so big!!

BACK TO THE ZOO

For Memorial Day we went to the zoo with Grandma and Grandpa Call. It was rainy the whole time, but not too cold. There was a lot more animals out this time. The funnest part was seeing the bears slipping off the logs. Unfortunately, Nick didn't get a full nap. He still hung in there pretty well. It was a fun outing.

MY ANGEL BOY

I just wanted to make a quick post to let Nickolas know how much we love him. He is our pride and joy every day. We love you!!

BUGS, ROCKS AND STICKS = CANYON FUN!!

Tonight we had dinner up the canyon with Grandma and Grandpa Call. Its was a beautiful day. The weather was perfect! Nick had so much fun walking around the fire pit without touching it. He loved to throw rocks into the river. He also liked to walk with a stick (just like his Aunt Brittany). It was so funny to watch him play with the grass. You may not be able to see it very well, but I would hand him long pieces of grass and he would hold them for a while then set then down on the log all in a row. It was really cute. I think we have a very creative little boy.

SISTERS, SISTERS

Sisters, Sisters

There were never such devoted sisters,
Never had to have a chaperon, no sir,
I’m there to keep my eye on her
Caring, sharing
Every little thing that we are wearing
When a certain gentleman arrived from Rome
She wore the dress, and I stayed home
All kinds of weather, we stick together
The same in the rain and sun
Two different faces, but in tight places
We think and we act as one
Those who’ve seen us
Know that not a thing could come between us
Many men have tried to split us up, but no one can
Lord help the mister who comes between me and my sister
And lord help the sister, who comes between me and my man

Lately I have been thinking of my sisters and sister-in-laws. And I know that each one would laugh that I actually would post this (especially the Call sisters). I just want to say I am so proud of each of you. All my sisters have been amazing examples to me. I do appreciate all you have done for me and our family. Thank you for your friendships and love. You are my best friends. I love each of you!!

(And to my brother and brother-in-laws, I love you all too).

PLAYING AT THE PARK

Clark is so funny at the park. He loves doing everything Nick would do. This was the boys favorite thing to do at this park. They loved crawling through the long tunnel. Nickolas is getting really good at ALMOST running. It's fun to watch him speed walk as fast as his little legs will take him. Give it another week or two and he will be running faster than I can.

MOTHERS DAY ROSES

I love Mothers Day!!

3rd ANNIVERSARY

PARK CITY

For our 3 year anniversary, Clark and I decided to go to Park City and stay the night. It was a perfect little get away trip. We had fun walking Main St. and seeing all the fun shops there. Then ate at a Mexican place called La Casi ta. The best part was their salsa bar!! I love salsa, so that was a little something different that I really liked. Then the next day we did some shopping at the Outlet Stores. That was a lot of fun too. Amazingly, I only called 3 times to check on Nick : ). We missed him sooo much! It was my first night away from him. (I know, I know... After 20 months, it's much needed!). Grandma and Grandpa Call were so good to watch him for us. He had so much fun with them. Anyway, the weekend went great, and I can't wait to do it again!!

~ MY TIME ~

It's sometimes hard to remember what you did for fun before you become a parent. For the past year and a half I've had late nights, been changing diapers, feeding my hungry baby, playing with him to make him happy and teaching him how to be a little man. He is at a point where hes a little less dependent. It is wonderful. But now what?? I've got to find the things I loved before the baby. One thing that I have started up is Yoga. I've really enjoyed this new hobby of mine. After Nick's bedtime it's my time. It is a wonderful way to unwind after a long day. Thank goodness for YOGA!!
