Growing Growing

Seriously where have the last 11 months gone?! Can't believe my Ranger boy is 11 month old today. He sure has been such a fun little boy the last few months and we love watching him grow. I love that he's getting bigger and more fun but I'm not ready for another toddler haha

A few things about this little boy at 11 months

* He has 5 teeth 2 on top 3 on bottom

* He walks along things and will walk from one of our couches to the other without holding on (about 3 -4 steps) he gets too excited when we try to get him to walk so he ends up just face planting it in alughter after about 2 steps.

* He still LOVES his food but fruits and veggies are his favorite.

* He still doesn't sleep through the night :(

* He throws a tantrum like crazy now you know when he's ready for bed or a nap. He'll just sit there and scream bloody murder.. Drives me crazy ha\

* This time change has kicked his butt

* He still loves his brother even when Ryder thinks he needs to wrestle with him ( he's a pretty tough dude)

* He's a champ at climbing up things but still hasn't figured out how to get down

* He's a busy body and into EVERYTHING

* He loves his 2 blankets, bink and bottle (I'm in trouble)

* He jabbers a lot but doesn't say any words

* He loves to clap especially when you say "yay Range"

* He's a mommas boy and is def spoiled

* Still HATES his carseat.. (we hope this ends when he can go forward facing)

* He will choose Ryder's trucks over any other toy.. He's def all boy and knows how to drive them and will make the sounds

* Loves bath time and showers

* Thinks he only needs to take one nap since the time change :/ (this kills me)

* He's a little flirt he'll laugh and smile at anyone we pass in the store

 Hello from happy Range ;)

 Loves to destroy my cabinets

Halloween

Halloween eve we went to our ward trunk or treat with some friends. The weather was bad so they moved it indoors and we went door to door instead of trunk to trunk. ;) Ryder had a good time and lvoed that everyone just let him grab however much he wanted haha

Halloween night we headed out to Eagle Mountain and went with Crystal and Raelynn again. It was chilly but the kids had a lot of fun. Range hung out in the stroller and just enjoyed the ride. Thanks for feeding us and letting us join you guys again Crys. Hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween.

 My cute monsters... Ryder wanted to be Sully and Range to be Mike Wazowski :)

Escalante/Cedar

The week Clayt left they boys and I headed to Escalante for a few days and then to Cedar City. My uncle opened up a new hardware store in Escalante so the boys and I met my parents over there to support him for his grand opening. Those who have never been there this is HUGE for this little town. Congrats Reed and Karen we wish you the best of luck with the new store.

Uncle Reed is on the right. He built this building and will be the General Manager.

Ryder saw this truck at the store and had his eye on it. The only way you could get it was by winning it. He asked Friday morning when he woke up if we could go win it. Waiting for them to call his name felt like forever asking every minute when they would call his ticket. The smile and happiness on this boys face when they said "Ryder" was priceless. Thanks Karen Munson and Do It Best.

Waiting to see if his name would be called..

Pure joy he was so excited. Thank you Reed and Karen

My mom got Ryder this little chalkboard at a boutique over there and Ryder was so excited to show us he wrote his name with no help.

Love this picture of my mom and I that someone snapped at the grand opening.

Devil Rock Gardens outside of Escalante

Sunday morning we headed to Cedar to go visit my friend Courtney for a few days. We had planned to go to Zion Monday but the weather had other plans for us :/ I was super bummed since I've never been. So she colored my hair and then we went to lunch and hung out at home. Tuesday the weather was still crappy but we ventured out and went on a little walk up the canyon. Thanks for letting us come and stay with you Courtney.

Ryder wanted to match Range this day.. Sure do love these two.

Courtney and I.
