9 months

Big Rigg turned 9 months last week. He weighed 21 pounds 6 oz at his checkup. He is saying lots of things like ewa (Ella), momma dadda, bababa, nana, etc. He's crawling, pulling himself up to stand and smiles the cutest smile you'll ever see. He has 8 teeth and is working on his 1 year molars (I think). He is angry when hungry and happy pretty much the rest of the time. Yesterday he got his blood drawn and didn't cry once. He even gave the people doing it a smile! He's a tough kid!

Nemo the butterfly

Macy got some caterpillars to take care of from pre school. We got to watch them make their transformations into butterflies. One of them ended up with a messed up wing and didn't make it so we named it Ramus and let it go. The other one we thought wasn't going to make it but apparently butterflies can do amazing things. It is orange, black and white with one wing smaller than the other so the name "Nemo" seemed perfectly fitting. We kept Nemo for a day or two and then let it go in some flowers.

Easter 2012

We had a nice Easter. The week was filled with fun activities and great messages. The week before was General Conference. Every conference for the Sunday morning session we go to Spencer and Lindsay's to watch and have breakfast. My mom brought some really fun things for the kids to do to keep them busy. They had so much fun making crafts and we enjoyed listening to messages from our General Authorities.

On Good Friday we had some friends come over to dye Easter eggs. The kids had so much fun and us moms did too!

The Saturday before Easter we went to Sheri and Greg's. We had a delicious dinner and the kids did an Easter egg hunt, decorated cookies and dyed eggs.

On Easter we went to church, rested and then went to my parents house for dinner. Everything was so good. We got to eat outside because it was so nice out.
