Halloween 09!!

We threw a Halloween Party this year, and it was a spooky blast. It is sure to be a tradition! Vampire Liquid (Tomato Soup), and bone breadsticks, severed toes, and eyeballs...delicious.
Aaron was the "Fairy Godfather", complete with a Bedazzled Tommy Gun, and Banick was the most darling Garden Knome to ever exist, (when he kept his hat on), and Robyn was a giraffe. (yes, a giraffe. My work was a zoo, so I had to fit in...)
It was so fun Trick or Treating with Banick. We went around a little shopping square in our neighborhood. By the end, Banick got the idea that people would let you have a colorful prize out of their bowl when you came into their store. He loved it! He just chewed on the wrappers...

First Trip to Vernal!

We went to Dada's home town for a visit. Banick was running on the big Trampoline at Grandpa and Grandma Inabnit's house and of course tripped and fell right into the springs. Head First. Something there cut his head open (hence the bandaid)and we were worried he would need stiches. He didn't, thank the Lord, but he may have a bad scar. It was a good trip though!

8 Wonderful Years!

Aaron and I have been married now for 8 years! It went by so very fast, and yet it feels like we have known each other for our whole lives.
Though we have had our share of challenges, we are meant for each other. He is the rain and sunshine to my flowers, and the joy to my every morning.
I love him more now than I ever have. His uncondtional love is stunning to me. He has seen me at my worst and still lets me know he only has eyes for me.
I love his energy, how he changes every song to be about cats somehow, how he chases Banick all over the house, how Hot he is, I love how he thoughful he is with gifts for me, and how he brings a towel to the park just in case he has to change a dirty diaper, I love how he holds my hand, how he doesnt care about us being trendy/perfect, and how he eats anything I make. He is my very Best Friend, a wonderful Dada, and my everything.
Thank you for 8 Great Years, Batman. I love you.

Prankster!

So Everyday Banick plays with Daddy's Alarm Clock Radio.
He always turns the volume WAY up and changes the channels!
Well, sometimes Daddy forgets to check it!
So today it blasted Mexican Music!
hahaha... silly Baby! Gotta love it!

Mooooooo!

We went to Thanksgiving Point to their Farm Country. There were bunnies, sheeps, and many other animals to play with. But Banick's favorite was this Baby Cow. It kept trying to lick him with it's rough tongue, and Banick was laughing his head off! He was inches from his face! It was the cutest thing ever.

First Swimming!

We went to Joy's house and played in her little pool. His favorite thing is to stand up and walk around. But that proves to be dangerous when you fall alot and swallow a gallon of water! He loved splashing around, and later trying to escape to the street in bare feet.

First Haircut and First Sucker!

We took Banick to get his very first haircut. (He was kinda growing a mullet!) It was hard for me to cut his baby hair, because I knew it would make him look more like a little boy, and less like a baby...which it definately did. But he looks so handsome now! We love to give him a little MoHawk. They put him in a car, and let him watch a movie which he laughed at. They gave him his very first sucker, and he couldn't get enough of that thing! He was a sticky disaster. Hair and sticky don't mix at all!

Playing in the Fountains at the Gateway

We went to the Gateway to play in the fountains with our friends Susanne and Joy.
Banick thought it was very funny when the water would hit him in the face! But most of all he just wanted to escape and go play in the street. He has some strange obsession with the street. Anywhere we go, he wants to be in the street!! He is constantly running his Mama crazy. But we had a blast!

The cutest boy ever

Oh, this boy.

Baby proofing is impossible. Just when I think we have done a pretty good job, he is into something else!
Today he knocked the fireplace cover thing over on his head. He didnt seem to mind that at all.
Then about 10 min. later he pulled the entire tall lampstand over on the ground. It had a bowl at the top that went around the light bulb. Yeah it was glass. EVERYWHERE!
Luckly it didnt touch him at all, but when I grabbed my mouth and gasped, he looked at me and bawled. Sweet crazy monkey boy of mine.

Crawler!!

February 17th, 2009--This Baby is full-on Crawling!! How fast that happened!! One second he hated to be on his stomach at all, the next he is scooting around, and now he is completely moving all over the room. And he pulls himself up to stand with every thing in site! We put bumper pads on the fireplace because he is a crazy man! Ahhhh, are we in for a ride! Now if we could just wear him out enough so that he'll finally sleep THROUGH THE NIGHT!!!

Wild Boy!

Ok, so this baby is running me ragged! I barely can keep up with him, let alone keep up on a blog! But here is a few pics from the last couple months... to catch up.

His 1st Christmas was so fun! He loved it. Christmas night and the week following was not so fun at all. Banick had to go to the ER at 2am and rode in his first (and my first) ambulance ride up to Primary Childrens. He had to have surgery for intussuseption. :( Poor little boy. It was very hard to not be able to tell him why all this torture was happening to him. But he is doing much, much better now. And growing like a weed!
