Somewhat of an UPDATE

So I know that I am the worst blogger out there but hey at least I am going to try and update things a little bit.  We have been doing well.  The summer has been great.  It goes by way to fast though.
First of all our little boy isn't so little anymore.  He is turning into an amazing boy!  We celebrated his 2nd birthday in March.  It was fun we had the grandparents there and my sister, brother, and his wife.  I just can't believe Ethan is 2 1/2 now.  He is talking all the time now too.  I love hearing him say everything that I say.  I just need to be careful what I say:)  But I do love it.  It was funny because recently he has started saying "Oh Good night nurse!" "What the heck?" or "Oh my gosh!"  Yeah he has learned those all from me.  But it is cute coming from him.
He has also started wearing glasses.  He started wearing those in March as well.  He has done remarkably well with them.  I thought that it would be more of a hassle but it isn't.  He will ask for them if we forget to put them on in the morning.  He also looks adorable in them.  He looks like that little boy from the movie Stuart Little for those of you who have seen that, he is also in Jerry MaGuire(sp).
As for Ryan and I we are doing good.  We have run a few races this summer.  We ran the Wasatch Back relay together in June.  That was fun!  Our team finished in 27 hours and 30 min.  I think.  It was fun running that with Ryan.  In a week from this Saturday we are running another relay the Temple to Temple relay in Idaho.  It runs from the Rexburg Temple to the Idaho Falls Temple.  We are doing a two man team.  I will be running 17 miles and Ryan will be doing 19.  We will see how it goes, I am a little nervous, I haven't run that far before but ready or not it is coming!
The summer has also consisted of trips to Bear Lake, camping, going to the park, finishing the sprinkler system, hydroseeding, planting a garden, getting air conditioning, visiting family, and lots of time outside!  It has been fun, I am not sure if I am ready for it to end.  But I am excited for fall.  I think that fall is my favorite season, I don't like that winter comes after it though!
Anyways now for the pictures, mind you these pictures are from a long time ago, and I don't have any pictures of summer activities because I thought that our camera was broken but I'm crazy it just needed the right batteries! Yeah smart one on my part! Now I will be taking pictures like CRAZY! And maybe just maybe be better at posting pics because that is the best part about blogging!

He loves Lightning McQueen, I made this cake for his birthday!  It was fun to make it, a little stressful but I did it!








Picture of his glasses.  Little cutie!


He loves this bike.  He rides it all over the house!

Can you tell he loves Cars?  He is probably watching Cars in this picture all cozy!

Showing his binki.  


That is a quick update of us! I don't think I should promise to keep it update better because that will mean I will wait another seven months to update things.  So I will try to keep things up to date better and we will see how that goes!  Hopefully people still check up on us and haven't forgotten us!  We are still here and doing well!

He does look like that little boy from those movies, but cuter! Why does he need glasses? Great job on his cake! I am impressed. so glad to hear you guys are doing so well!

Celeste and Jared said...

It was so fun to hear about what you guys have been up to! Let's get together again SOON!!!

It was fun making that cake a little stressful but hey I attempted it!
Bekah he needs glasses because his eyes were going cross eyed, so he has a lazy eye and hopefully the glasses will strengthen them so he doesn't need surgery!
Celeste, yes we do need to get together and we just need to do it because I miss spending time with you guys! Maybe I can get Ryan to let me get a pedi or manicure from you that way we can just have girl time and chat!
