It has been quite awhile since I have added anything new to my blog. We cut our internet until recently. It was funny having Karl work at an internet company and not have internet. But we are now currently installed with satelite Digis internet and it works beautifully!! My picture taking has been limited as I can't find my camera charger so I only take an occasional one to keep it charged. Life has been pretty eventful in the last year. Karl changed jobs. We both had fun, slightly demanding callings and really got to know and love our ward in American Fork. We got a rec center pass and have really enjoyed working out. James is growing a little taller and a lot slimmer. His baby fat has all but disapeared as he began crawling and then walking. We are excited to annouce he has one and a half teeth!! (the teeth have been very slow to come as he will be 17 months on the 16 of this month...) We adore our little guy and think he has just gotten to be more and more fun :) He is a cuddle bug when he is tired. He loves sugar and lately gold fish. It is hard to get him to eat some foods. My favorite thing I have started doing is dumping apricot nectar that I bottled last year, whatever fruit I have in the house, applesauce, yogurt, and random baby food that he won't eat plain and blending it all into a smoothie which he then gobbles down. Get him to eat yogurt, applesauce or almost any of those things alone with a spoon and it is super frustrating. He loves to mimic us and sometimes he does something and we have to think back on what he has seen us do that he is copying.
I love this picture!! Wanting to dress like daddy and also be like mommy :)
The pictures below were taken last october, before we sold our couch and a few days before his first haircut. There are no pictures of the hair cut being done as he sat on my lap. We recieved a free haircut at great clips after attending a utah football game. Karl and I have since attempted to cut James hair with clippers we have alot to learn about cutting such straight fine hair.
Before After
James first airplane ride was to Branson, Missouri. He was quite the trooper. He only had his own seat while daddy was off exploring the facility. He was wonderful the whole trip and we all had so so much fun! Sadly I have no pictures so hopefully I can get some from family members that took some...
I took this picture today. He usually sleeps curled up in a little ball. This cracked me up! We sure love our little guy! The last big change that has happened this year was... We bought our first home!! More pictures to come. It is in Pleasant Grove, Utah. Multi-level home with 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. We love it and are still unpacking.
