Christmas is here!

Christmas is my favorite holiday. I look forward to it all year. I just love the music and the spirit of giving. Ever since I was young I get so excited on Christmas Eve and I can never sleep. Darren called me from work yesterday and suggested we decorate for Christmas for family home evening. I was so excited. He loves to put the tree up and help me decorate. It's such a fun family acitivity. Ammon loves the lights and sparkling ornaments.

Cloth Diapers

So, I've been looking at the possiblity of using cloth diapers. There are a lot of pros and cons of both cloth and disposable. I bought 2 cute cloth diapers from a lady in Spanish Fork to try them out and I've just been using them along with disposable ones. I really like them for now but we'll see when he starts eating solid foods. Isn't he so cute in them!? I guess this is my way of saving the planet 4 diapers a day.
Ammon has been scratching himself a lot. I have to cut his fingernails every day in order to keep him from hurting his eye. In one of the pictures you can see 5 scratches on his face. He got these all in one night from ONE stinking finger nail that was a bit too long. I felt really bad.

The Joys of being a Mommy!

I was playing with Ammon tonight and he gave me a big smile and then wahlah... a big surprise! He was wearing disposable diapers here. This never happens with the cloth diapers!

Arizona

We had an awesome time in Arizona for the Teambuilders function. I loved Arizona in the winter. The weather was perfect and the cacti were so cool. We went swimming even though the pool and hot tub were a bit chilly outside. We had a blast!!! The babies were SO good! They didn't fuss at all during the entire trip. 12 hours down and 12 hours back.
Our leaders were amazing and we learned so much during the function. We are so excited to move forward. Brett Deimler spoke to us. He was hilarious and very inspirational. I am so grateful for Teambuilders and the blessing that it has been in our life. We don't know what we would do without it! Thanks Ledbetters, Bennetts, Hunters and Josh and Krista for never giving up on us and for inspiring us to be the best we can be! *

What a blast!

Our fabulous leaders have made such a difference in our life! We love them and appreciate all that they sacrafice for us!














The brand new ferrari was so beautiful! Darren took tons of pictures of it.















I thought these mountains were so cool. They are so different from the Mountains in Utah. We stopped at a little shack and looked at the Indian jewelry on the way. It was very beautiful!

I have Two Little Hands

Ammon is learning that he has two hands that are attached to his body. He constantly stares at his right hand. I don't know if he realizes he has a left one yet, but he's starting to grab things more and play with his own hands.

He's also been seeing things better. I can tell that he sees his toys in front of his face now where as before he never focused on them. It has been so fun seeing him learn something new every day.

Ammon is starting to laugh and smile a lot more. Darren gets him to laugh all the time. When he comes home from work he'll sit down and talk to him for about and hour and he laughs the whole time. It's so cute! Then he'll get hungry and start whaleing but other than that he's always a happy baby.

I'm posting some picture of Grandma and Grandpa Stone that we took a few weeks ago:

What is That?

Ammon's first encounter with puppy dogs. Bella and Columbo were so curious, wondering what this little human was. The dogs didn't know what to think of him and he didn't know what to think of them. It was so fun watching them all night long.

Happy Halloween

We had so much fun dressing up the kids and taking them around to show off. I love having such a cute baby doll to play dress up with.
