Happy Anniversary to me.....

Well, 5 days ago actually, not today, but Joe and I had our 3rd Anniversary on the 26th of August. Happy Anniversary Joe! We went to the Zoo and had a lot of fun. Joe and I got to eat ice cream and watch monkeys groom themselves, what a day....jealous anyone? I think so :) But seriously, it was fun, really hot and sticky outside, but fun. We also went to ikea and got some cool new dishes, and we went out to eat at Outback steakhouse. What amazing steak, holy cow...literally. I got the most amazing fillet and it just melted in my mouth. I think we will eat there more often. Joe got some really tasty baby back ribs, which I nibbled on of course. It was a fun day and so cool that we got to share part of it with Dallin. Here are some pictures of us at the zoo.....

Dallin LOVED that I wore my hair down, here are some pics of him discovering how fun it was to pull mommy's hair.... just ignore my face in most of these....Dallin is the cute one....

Joe had a blast carrying Dallin on his shoulders. Dallin is finally old enough to stay up there.

Dallin also enjoyed pulling Joe's hair at times...

We saw lions....

Tigers....

Elephants...

Giraffes....Rhinos!!!!

And then we just got to monkey around, just us three monkeys! We loved it!

Time passes so quickly

I can't believe this was 4 months ago, they grow so fast! We love Dallin and are so grateful you are in our life little one...

Nap with mom

I just wanted to share this adorable moment and the one and only time it will probably ever happen...
Never before have we let Dallin sleep in bed with either of us, we don't think it is safe for him nor good for his sleeping habits, but he wasn't feeling too well this morning and neither was I. I have never been able to just nap with him and it was quite relaxing and super precious. There is nothing more touching than feeling the rythmatic breathing and thumping of your little baby's heart right next to you. He is such a blessing. We love you Dallin.

Joe's Birthday

Yesterday was Joe's birthday. He started out the day with breakfast in bed. I mad him the famous Hansen rolli-ups and bacon. It was delicious. Then he opened his presents (Dallin helped) and after that we got ready to play tennis. It was so fun to play tennis together again. I almost hurt my knee really bad. It had rained the day before and there were puddles all over the court. I was running after a fast serve from Joe and skidded right into one. I managed to save myself from getting too hurt, but not before my entire backside was covered in muddy water. Oh well, no harm no foul. Dallin played in his stroller most of the time, but when he got too fussy to be left alone, Joe picked him up and we played a more mild game of Tennis. Dallin loved playing tennis in Daddy's arms, he had a ball. After tennis, we went shopping and found Joe some awesome clothes. We went to lunch, then a movie, (G.I JOe, it was okay) and then dinner. Joe says he had a great birthday. I took him some cake to work today and bought him lunch. He says his birthday has never been so long, as I have been celebrating it for two days now! Happy Birthday Joe! I love you so very much and am so glad that you are in my life!

Before opening presents, Dallin is super excited to begin...

He didn't know quite what to think of it at first, but soon Dallin was a pro at tearing the paper.

Joe is teaching Dallin to LOVE candy already.

Getting ready to go play tennis with Daddy on his birthday, it was chilly yesterday morning.

He looks so chubby, I love it!

Kickin' it old school with Daddy.

Joe had fun eating Lunch with his son.

Angry he can't have cake....

All in all it was a really fun day! I am glad that Joe got to have some fun and relax on his birthday. Happy Birthday my love!
