All about Crew


A few things to remember about this boy...
Crew has a few nicknames(of course that's how our family roles)
Crew-ton
Crewbear
Crewbert
Crew-pon
Crew weights 22lbs and is a pretty stocky kid for our family. I am thinking he will be our sporty kid.
Crew is another blonde baby. His hair is starting to come in a little thicker now and it is as blonde as ever. I love it! With his tan little skin he is one handsome little boy!!
 Crew loves nothing more then being outside. If any door opens he literally bolts for it and if he doesn't make it oh how he cries. Sad boy! If he does make it he turns around and goes down the stairs backwards like a good boy!
Crew loves the water. Swimming, splashing and anything with water! He is happy!
Crew is ALWAYS happy. He cries very rarely. He has 0 stranger anxiety and will go to anyone. He is so smiley and nice!
Crew is a spitting image of his daddy. He looks just like him and he has the same personality. He is so chill, quiet  and happy. Crew doesn't hardly do any talking, giggling, or jabbering at all. He is the strong silent type. He does say "dada dada" for Brook but that is it.
Crew refuses at 1 years old to hold his own Sippy cup or bottle.  He will just watch it until I pick it up and feed it to him. Silly boy!!
On Crews birthday he just decided that it was time to try walking. He stands up and walks everywhere. Crawling he is still faster so that's his go to after he falls about 3 times but he is catching on. I hate to admit this but I secretly push him over(wink, wink) cause I don't want my baby, baby to grow up so stinking fast!
Crew loves his...
blanket
daddy
food
his binky.
This boy makes our family complete and we love him so much! I can't wait to see what the next year brings for this little man!!!

A year in Review

 May 2012
I have really dragged my feet on this blog post because I am in denial that my baby is 1. It's like if I don't blog it, it isn't real. But now I am way behind so about my baby.

Birthday Party

My baby is 1! He had a birthday while we in Utah a few weeks ago and we had a little party! He was spoiled with swimming fun and presents and cake! That makes one happy birthday boy!!


Crew had so much help with lots of cousins opening his presents! He didn't care he was just happy to be included!
 


Candles are so fascinating! He didn't quite understand this part but he was pretty interested! Deegy helped blow his candle out!
"Is this my very own piece, mom!!" That is exactly what this little boy was thinking! It was so amazingly cute. He looked at it like this for a min and then he looked up at me with his cute little face then he dug right in and didn't leave a crumb!! Such a good boy!!
 

 Fun cousins plus good cake and 1 naked sister equals one happy first birthday!!!

Fun in the Sun...

Crew and Dad warming up in the sunshine. It wasn't all that warm in Utah over Memorial Day weekend but that didn't stop us from enjoying some sun and pool time!


My baby and me!
 

Carter was loving the pool! He can swim without his floaties and he thinks it pretty cool! I am so proud of him!

This boy is just like his older siblings. He absolutely loves everything about the water! He doesn't even mind going under and he holds his breath like a champ.

This girl has always been and will always be a fish!! She loves the water!

 
Same with this little trouble maker! She was in heaven in the water and this year she is the perfect size for floaties! She just floats around and watches the kids play! What a good girl! She loves to jump in off the side like a wild banshee. It felt like summer playing in the pool! I can't wait for the weather to get a little bit warmer and we will all be water babies! Thanks to Grandpa and Grandma for the fun in the pool!

Best Friends


Besties... These two little boys are destined to be best friends.  Just like their daddies! Crew and Weston. They both celebrated their 1st birthdays last week and they are both so big and handsome! We love going to Utah and visiting our family and that includes our best friends. We didn't get to see them enough. We need to go down again.
 

 
These girls have so much fun playing together! I love that they won't see each other for months at a time and when we see them they just pick up right where they left off...best friends! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Last Day

A week ago Carter had his last day of preschool. They had a program at the library to show us some things they learned this year. It was so cute as usual.  I got there and surprise...my camera was dead. So I snagged 2 pictures on Brooks cell phone. Not the best but better then nothing. Carter had the best year this year. He absolutely loves his class and teacher.

 
I hate that this picture won't turn. We love Miss MerLee in our house. She is the best! I told her she has had our kids for the last 4 years and she has to keep teaching for 4 more years. Then Crew will be in kindergarten and she can retire! Carter is so excited to be going into kindergarten next year! I am so glad he had a great preschool experience.
