Kix's First Birthday

Last friday on the 2nd my baby had his 1st birthday! We had a party for him at the family bbq we always have on the 4th. He got lots of presents, and had fun destroying his cake! It makes me sad to think he is already getting so big! But he is only getting funner and funner! He is definitely getting a personality on him, and is starting to throw little fits if you don't give him what he wants. He gives the biggest sweetest smiles, and I love listening to him laugh! He has 5 teeth with a 6th one almost poking through. He weighs 23 lbs and is almost 31 inches long. And he still doesn't like loud noises or holding still (especially in church). I love him so much, and I'm so thankful he is my baby boy!!!

All of his presents!



The dinosaur cake I made for Kix. I made him his own little dinosaur cake head, so he didn't ruin the cake for everyone else!

Testing out the cake. He didn't know for sure what to do at first, but when he figured it out, he went crazy!
It didn't take long for the cake to disappear. He didn't even eat it, just mushed and played in it till there was nothing left!!


Trying to get some of the cake off of the plate




He was DIRTY after playing with his cake!

Kix LOVED the tractor and dump truck nana and papa gave him!

Lake Powell

We had the opportunity to go down to Lake Powell with my Uncle Gary and stay on his house boat. It was so much fun! We just layed around and played in the water! Oakley was only out of the water to eat and sleep it seemed like! Kix loved the sand and water! All of us adults had fun playing cards at night, even if mom called us all names! Thanks Uncle Gary for such a fun time!
We stopped at the Dam and took a tour and looked around. It's amazing the things man can build!




Me and Dad, Jenna, and Tiffany



Poor Hawley! She kept getting in the way of Oakleys flying objects! We felt so bad for her eye!



Rainbow Bridge. It was so beautiful!


The kids playing in the water!

The girls were absolutely terrified of going down the slide!
Yes they are all being forced down!!


Kix in some cool shades!


On our last day there Oakley decided that the slide really was a fun thing! To bad she didn't decided that on the first day!
