Walking

Weston has been crusing along furniture since before he could crawl. If fact he always wanted to stand and walk along furniture so I was begining to think he wasn't going to crawl but just start right on walking. He will be 15 months on the 15th and these are the most steps he has taken. He totally gets how to do it and has for a long time he just hasn't made up his mind whether he wants to walk. Here he is walking! Yeah. Hopefully he will start doing it full time.

Christmas!

Okay so I realize its a litle late to be writing about Christmas. We had fun at the Layton party on the 22nd. It was so much fun to see all of my family that I don't get to see nearly enough. On Christmas eve we usually go to Jon's parents for a dinner but they didn't have one this year, so we were going to go to his boss' house but when a terrible snow storm hit we decided to stay home. Jon didn't mind he got to set up his Christmas present his t.v. I must post pictures of that soon. LOL. On Christmas morning my mom and Brett came to watch Weston open presents. Weston had fun opening one or two then he had to have milk break. So the rest of us opened our presents then Weston resumed his duty. When we were ready for the day we went to Grandpa Layton's for breakfast. I was hoping to see you Layton's but no one was up there just Michelle, Grandpa, and Danielle. Awkward! Then we went to Jon's Grandparents with my mom and we had dinner and presents there. I was a nice day that went way too fast!

My Grandparents on my Dad's side flew in on Christmas day. They came down with my aunt Kim and Cousin Sean to visit the day after and stayed at a hotel. It was fun to see them but we didn't get to see them too much. I wish they lived here. I sure miss them when they aren't here.

Weston opening Mr. Potato Head!

It's a girl!

We added a new member to our family. And its a girl! We adopted a 7 week old lab today. SHe is so sweet. And Weston just loves her. He goes up to her and is so soft and he says, "oooooohhhh"! Tails isn't 100% sure about her yet. He wants to play with her but right now she is too little to play with him. And yet soon she will be way bigger than him. If you have any suggestions for a name we would love to hear them.

Sleepy Boy

Check out his sleepy pose!


Weston was so grumpy and tired on Sunday because he only had an hour nap. By 7 he was so tired I decided after he ate dinner he was going to bed. At 8 we walked into his room and he instantly started to cry. Since I was worried going to bed at 8 he might wake up in an hour and not going back to sleep for a while. So we went back out and I put him on the rocker with his blanket and went to get me a bowl of macaroni. 3 minutes later I walk back to grab Weston and he was asleep. With his arms behind his head. I guess he really was tired. He slept all night long. Oh how I love that.

Weston and the tree

When we put the tree up Weston was so fastinated by it. At first he would go up to it and I would say no and he would move away. Then he started to go up to the tree and shake his head no and say, "no". In the video you will see he then just started doing as he pleased.

Santa's Lap

Weston's Visit with Santa. He was so good no crying or anything. He mostly just started at him.

A week ago my mom and I went to the wood connection to buy some wood to make some Christmas presents. I ended up buying a bunch of wood to make decorations for my house too here is what I made.
