Connor crawling for the 1st time

Tonight Lori and I were just trying to keep ourselves busy. All of a sudden Connor was on his knees and he started to crawl. Lori and I were so excited that we were screaming and clapping our hands that it scared Connor and he started to cry. I ran and got the camera and called Erik in to see Connor crawl. Here Connor is crawling. He had a big smile on his face like he knew that he was accomplishing something big. I am so happy that he is starting to crawl. I hope that you enjoy it as well as we did.

Danika cut her own hair

Yesterday Danika decided that she didn't like her hair so she decided to cut her own hair. I couldn't believe that she did it. I started to cry when I saw it. She came down to me in the basement and it looked like something happened to her hair. I asked her, "What happened to your hair." She told me that my sister Lori had cut her hair. I told her that Lori would not do that to your hair. I went up stairs to ask what happened to her hair. No one seemed to notice that she did something to it. I asked Lori if she had cut Danika's. Of course I knew that she didn't do it. Lori and I looked into the trash can in her bathroom. In the trash was a handful of hair. That made me even cry more. We have tried to think of different ways to do Danika's hair. I have been trying to get a hold of our hair dresser and She never has called us back. So I am just going to hide it with a headband. Well at least I am not going to be getting Danika's pictures done any time soon.

Here is a side view of Danika's hair.
This side view is real bad.

Here is Danika's bangs. From the front view it doesn't look to bad, but than from the side it looks worse.

We went sledding on Saturday. We ended up going to a school in Payson. They had a steep hill and they made some jumps. They were having so much fun.

Connor

Danika and Connor are playing together.

We have been working on Connor to start crawling and I left him on the floor. When I got back he was on his knees and he was leaning up to the TV stand. It was so funny to see him doing that. He put himself up there all by his self. He was so proud that he had done it all on his own.

Connor

Erik put connor in his highchair so that we could do some things. So they put these cookie cutters on the tray and he just looked at them like he had no idea what to do with them. They he finally figured it out and started to play with them. If it was any other kid they would have them all over the floor, but connor is so relaxed that he only plays with a few of them at a time.

Kaden and Danika got this sled for christmas. Erik put him in it and he would smile like he was a big boy.

Connor will not take a bottle so I decided that I would try and give it to him in his sippy cup. Now I can leave him with a babysitter. I am so happy.

Christmas Break

Blake and Danielle were here for christmas and we always play games and watch movies. We stay up late, we hardly get any sleep and we have so much fun.

Grandma bought Connor and Caleb these matching outfits. They are both hitting the window. Of course Connor can't stand up so I have to hold him up.

We tryed to get the 2008 baby's pictures taken and it is hard to get them all to sit still. This is the best that we could do.

This is a good picture of Connor and Tonia.

We put Connor in Danika's little chair. He thought that he was such a big boy sitting there. It is funny to see him laugh. He was having such a good time.

Christmas Tree

We put up our christmas tree. Every year I like to decorate our tree different. Kaden and Erik are putting on our new oranments.

Danika is putting the ornaments on the back of the tree.

Here is Erik.

Danika and Kaden were having fun putting them on.

Connor is helping Kaden and Danika put the hooks on the new ornaments.

Kaden's report

Today Kaden did his first report on Argentina. He did a really good job. You could tell he was a little nervous about doing it. He had a laser pen that he used to point at the pictures. We also had a huge map of the world. He used it to show where Argentina was on the map. It turned out really good. We are proud of him.
