Thanksgiving

We had Thanksgiving at our house this year. 15 people came over, luckily everyone brought something so I was only in charge of the turkey. It turned out really well. Everything was delicious. I am so thankful that I get to live so close to my family. My mom and I are have a very close relationship and I’m very thankful for that. She is the best mom in the world. My Dad is amazing as well! He is always helping us out and is so good with Michael, he is the best father and grandpa anyone could ask for. I am so lucky that most of my sisters live near by. We all get to see each other often. I am so blessed to have a wonderful husband and son. David does so much for me and is so caring. He is a great father to Michael, they love each other so much!

I forgot to take a picture of the turkey before they cut it, but here is one of them cutting it. This was David’s first time cutting a turkey, he was really nervious, but did a great job.

All of the the food. Yum Yum

Grandma and Grandpa Boggs. They are the best. Grandpa is going in for a pacemaker today, we are all keeping him in our prayers and hope everything goes well.

Jessica was able to come home from college to celebrate the holiday with us. I really enjoyed having her home, she brought a lot of joy to our house.

All tired out after the big meal.

Just and Update

Michael has learned how to turn his binki over with just using his tongue. We haven’t gotten in on video yet. We tried, but he just got mad at us.

Image

I don’t think I ever posted Michael’s 8 month monkey picture. He is getting so big, and wasn’t very happy I made him lay on the floor.

Image

We gave Michael some licks of our popsicle. At first he tried to bite it and didn’t like the cold feeling on his teeth. He has learned that it is better to lick/suck on it. He is a very fast learner! Anyway, whenever we are eating a popsicle he always wants some.

Image

I gave Michael a bath in the bathtub for the first time. I forgot to take pictures during it, but this is one afterwards.

Image

I think we have the cutest baby in the entire world. And a plus, he has really happy lately. I love it when he is happy, I can’t help but be happy aswell.

More Videos

I haven’t updated the blog in a little while, so I have a couple videos that need to be posted.

This first one is David feeding Michael lemon juice.

Michael looks so cute in this next one, he is learning how to clap his hands.

Michael likes to feed himself. He is such a big boy.

We decided to let Michael try a pospicle. He loves them. This video is his second time eatting one. By the way, the wetness on his shirt isn’t from the popsicle, he likes to spit everywhere and he was doing that before I fed him.

Falling asleep

I am very proud of myself. I have been quite productive this morning. I’ve done the dishes, started the laundry, cleaned the: kitchen, living room, and family room, and I’ve updated the blog. 🙂 And it is still before noon. Michael has been so good this morning. I put him in his jumper and he just jumped away the entire time. When I was almost finished I went to checked on him and this is what I saw:

He is falling asleep. I couldn’t believe it when I saw him. When he gets tired he usually gets fussy, but he didn’t. He just sat there and decided to go to sleep. I love him!

Scooting again

Michael is getting so good and scooting backwards on his tummy. In the picture he started at the left side on his back, rolled to his tummy and scooted all the way to the table on the right. He gets frustrated when he is trying to get something in front of him; he tries to move toward it, but always goes backwards. He is so cute, and getting very mobile now.

Scooting

Rolling Over

Michael has learned how to roll from his back to his stomach. Now whenever I put him on his back he rolls right over. And he has learned that he is more mobile on his stomach so he prefers that.

Last night we put Michael to bed, a little later he was crying. He had rolled from his back to his stomach and then twisted 180 degrees. In this picture he hasn’t quite rotated 180 degrees, but close. I love his face, he really wants me to pick him up, but I had to take a picture.

Rolling over in Bed

Michael was rolling all over the place so I tried to get it on video, but as usual once he sees the camera he stops. So this is the best I could get.

Rascal Flatts

For my birthday this year, Kaylynn got me tickets to the Rascal Flatts concert the day before Halloween. It was so much fun!

Halloween

I dressed up as a farmer and Micahael was my pumpkin for Halloween. David was going to be a farmer also, but he was sick, so he didn’t get to have any fun.

Halloween '09

We went to the trunk or treat at our ward, then to may parent’s house for some pizza. This picture is Karen’s kids and Michael.

Grandkids

Michael loves playing with the candy. I think so far Halloween is his favorite Holiday even though he can’t eat the candy.
