Going, going, gone!

 
 
This is what happens he takes a few steps and then falls!! But practice makes perfect!

  

 
Connor loves to help Zachary try to walk! 

 
Another cute pic! If only I could keep that hat on his head! 

Zachary's Birthday Party!!!

 
Oh man what a day!! We were busy from the time we woke up to well now, since I'm blogging! We visited our friends church this morning to witness their baptism and it was awesome, then off to Costco for cake and food. And finally the time for his party. We all enjoyed ourselves immensly! Lots of laughter and lots of smiles!! Zachary was a trooper through it all and did great! He espicially loved his cake! Zachary and the rest of the kids ran and played and then swam so hopefully they were all as worn out as my kids were when we got home!! 

 
Before the real festivities of eating the cake began!! Everyone sang Happy Birthday and this is Zach's reaction to it. He was looking around at everyone like what are you crazy people doing!?!? 

 
Wow look at that face!!! For the first couple minutes Zachary was being so careful about it but finally he dove in and got himself all dirty!! It's required on their first birthday though!! He had a lot of fun considering he'd been eyeing that cake since the minute he laid his eyes on it!! 

 
Connor and his Grandma!! We were in the pool for an hour and it was absolutely awesome!! The entire place was closed so we were the only ones except the lifeguard and we all went back and forth between the big pool and the kiddie pool! It was such a relaxing time and I had a lot of fun!! 

 
Zachary was enjoying that slide today! Lately when we've been in this pool he's been not too into it but tonight he was loving every minute of it!! 

 

My mother in law, me, my mom and Zachary!! Thought that the pic actually turned out really cute! 

 

Everyone having a good ole time!! 

My little Zachary

 
 
It's amazing to me how much a baby can change in their first year of life!! Zachary had a good birthday, what birthday would be complete without dinner at Shoji's?? ;-) And then after Shoji's we went and got some ice cream and by that time Zach had had enough of the birthday celebration and we took him home and off to bed he went! 

Update of AAHHHH!!!

So today I got my early birthday present from my parents and they got me a new bike!!! Yay, I am so excited because now I will actually get to use my bike trailer that I bought like over a month ago!! And now no pedal will fall off in the middle of the road! I rode my bike to work today to get a feel of it and it felt awesome and it only took me like 10 minutes to get to work! And I know it will take a little longer to take Connor to Busy Buddies when I'm lugging 55 pounds of kids behind me. But I am just happy that now I have a convenient way to transport the kids to and from cuz I have to give back my mother in laws car back tomorrow :-( And do you guys realize what tomorrow is??? One year ago today I was in labor with Zachary!! I can't believe it's already been a year since he's been born. He has truly been a blessing in my life. It's crazy for me to think that one year ago I had a baby in my stomach and now a year later I have a brand new baby in my stomach!! I'm getting more and more excited about the idea of a new baby but at the same time I'm scared of what could go wrong. I find with each pregnancy I think more and more about everything that could happen and I just pray that everything will be okay and healthy (and hopefully with girl parts!!!) ;-) Just had to throw that in! Well I think that's enough rambling from me for now!!

Fun times at the pool

 
 
So here are the pics from when we went to the pool on Fourth of July! I think they turned out really good! As you can tell both my boys love the water and can't get enough of it! Good thing I work at the pool and we get in for free! 

 
 
The line took quite awhile this time but he got to go with each of us once and we got some fairly good pics out of it! 

 
 
Here are some of Connor underwater!! 

There it is!!!

So here it is if of course you can even tell what it is!!! Cuz I can't hardly tell, but yes there is a baby there, we heard the heartbeat and were told that everything looks just the way that it is supposed to look at this stage. I am 6wk and 3 days pregnant and my due date is February 26th. My little Zachary will be only 20 months old!! Connor's already saying it's his baby sister so you know we don't want to dissapoint him ;-)

So we had just an awesome time these past few days hanging out with our friends! Monday night we were supposed to go to Shoji's for dinner but it was closed for a private party so we went to Kayo's Roadhouse! And we had a blast, there were lots of peanuts thrown and lots of laughter around our table with only a little bit of drama! Then it was off to drinking which was fun too. You would think that after spending all night with these people we would have been tired of them ;-) but no we spent almost all of fourth of July with them too! We went down to the new pool and I brought an underwater camera so hopefully those pics turned out good and then over to Gregg and Tressa's for the BBQ. Fun times, fun times.....

  

Me and my girls!!

  

So we ended up at Timber's towards the end of the night and everyone just hung out and played pool. Very fun for them, not too much for me being that it was way past my bedtime and I was sober!! But alas I got some funny drunk pictures of my friends so very worth it for me to stay up late!

  

Love, love, love these boys!! I almost forgot that I had these fourth of July shirts for them! I tell I've been extremely forgetful these past few days. It wasn't until we were at lunch and I saw a little girl in her fourth of July outfit that I remembered these shirts, so we had to go back home and get the shirts! But it was worth it cuz they look so cute!
