Before we moved here we tried diligently to break George of sleeping in bed with Phillip and I. As you can see, we were not successful. But really, who could kick that cutie out of bed?

Andrew is following in is Daddy's footsteps...check out "Flip Jr.".
Finally it is cool enough for jeans and sweatshirts. Doc bought this adorable John Deere outfit for Andrew and thankfully it still fits. Doesn't he look ready to farm?


We decided to enjoy the cooler weather and go for a hike at the nearby Snow Canyon. Andrew is becoming quite the hiker. If he had his way though, he would just sit and play with the rocks.

Our Escapee

It seems I should have let you girls know how to keep the little buggers in the crib. With our crib we were able to drop the mattress all the way down to the floor. Won't work with all cribs but seems to be working for now. We have also had several conversations with Andrew about sleeping and staying in the crib. Sounds crazy, I know, but so far so good.

Big Week In St. George

It's been a big week for us here in St. George. With Phillip working Saturdays now, Andrew and I have to get creative to keep busy. This Saturday we decided to bake cookies together (first time). He really loved dumping all the ingredients into the mixing bowl. Ever the picky eater, though, he didn't want to try the finished product. That's okay...more for me and dad!


Other fun news to report. Can you tell how tired he looks? Well, lately he's been on a napping strike. I think we may have finally fixed that but the biggest news of the week is that he has learned a new skill. About 3:30am we heard a thump, loud cry, loud cry that kept getting closer to our bedroom. You guessed it...the little prisoner escaped and was on the loose...he can get out of his crib all by himself. We are taking measures to keep him in there all night...in the mean time, wish us luck.
I've been checking up on all you girls from the LGSC and I love seeing all your posts from the playdates. It looks like you all are having loads of fun and checking out some really cool places. We miss you all and wish we were there to join in the fun.
