OK, I'm a slacker


I was on the phone with one of my friends this morning and she mentioned that she really didn't know what I've been up to because I haven't updated my blog for a while. Oops!! I AM a slacker!! Sorry.

Let's see, we just got back from a weekend in Utah which was very fun because we were able to get Paige and Austin together with their cousins. The weather was great on Friday and Saturday morning, but slowly got colder and colder through Sunday. We enjoyed it while it latest, though. Here are a couple videos from our time there.
OK, here's the video I MEANT to post the first time. Oops! (Thanks, Bekah, for tipping me off about it!) :0)




We've also been celebrating Austin's 1st Birthday, even though his birthday isn't until Saturday. He's already a pro with the "Birthday Cupcake" and has already gotten a bit of practice with opening presents. Here's a few pictures from his birthday activities.

Here's Austin's very first cupcake. "Look, Ma, no hands!!"

G'ma and G'pa A. came over and gave Austin his birthday presents a little early. He LOVES his car books and his animals. Thank you, G'ma and G'pa!!!

We had a little party last Monday with a couple other boys Austin's age. (They are all just a month apart.) It was so much fun. I loved the little cupcakes with their initials. Here's a video of part of the birthday song. I was a little late in getting the camera ready! ;0)

I am so glad to see all of the updates!!! I really cannot believe that Austin is almost 1! It seems like just the other day you were sick at church and getting ready for him to pop out. I still remember it like it was yesterday! Oh, and I wanted to tell you that the other day I told Sam we were going over to Jamie's house (Jamie Elison), and he said, "is Paige going to be there?" I thought it was so cute and that you might like to know. We miss you.

Sorry to guilt trip you...but...not! It was fun to talk to you this morning. It was also fun to see pics. I love the one of Austin with no hands. Thanks for the update.

I am glad that you had a great weeekend in Utah. Next time you come down you will have to let me know too. It would be fun to see you all!

I can't believe it's been a year since you had Austin as well! How fast does time fly. It seems like you just have these babies and all of the sudden they're walking and talking!

That first video is great! A whole one second long... :)
Can't believe all these babies in the family are turning one already!
