Cute baby!

Time flies when you're having fun I guess. Sawyer is 9 weeks old tomorrow and we are so blessed to have him. Ava is crazy as usual! I think she is finally realizing she doesn't actually have to do everything we tell/ask her to do.... uh oh! We're excited for her to turn 3 and Ava especially is excited because she's going to have a birthday party with her friends :) 12- 3 year-olds, wish me luck! Anyway- this is a super long post, nothing too eventful. Sawyer started smiling a few weeks ago and we totally love it! Ava threw away all her binkis about a month ago and it was surprisingly non-traumatic and easy and she is still napping and sleeping like a gem. In some ways she is sleeping better than when she used a binki... go figure! We had young women's New Beginnings last week and it was so fun! I love my calling :) We are finally now starting to leave the house a little more. I go back on rotations in 3 weeks so we're trying to have as much fun as we can before then!


Best boys around!

Like father, like son.... the Jazz game was on...









I thought this was so funny!









Luckily we have had 2 kids that love bathtime! Sawyer hated sponge baths before his umbilical cord fell off, but once he was in the tub- he loves loves it!



New Beginnings: The "Emma" awards! Our fearless leader, Kathy and her feather boa. I love it!



Some of our cute girls!



Desserts for the rich and famous



The mock photo booth we set-up for the attendees- it was probably the funniest and funnest thing I have ever seen!



The awards



The room all decorated.



This was a funny sight. Ava had an apple earlier this day and failed to finish it. Due to my probable laziness, it didn't get thrown away right quick and I came back to find it filled with pennies....



Our little man. He is absolutely perfect!



He is a much better sleeper than Ava was, and for that I am thankful!




The award winning smile:



Who does he look like, me or Luke? We still can't tell....



Cute polka- dotted girl



One of the blissful binki moments- he's not a lover....yet..... We're still working on it, although sometimes I think it's easier that he doesn't love it and doesn't need it to sleep

Such cute photos! I am glad Sawyer is sleeping good for you. Ryan won't take a binky either! At first I was okay with it, but now I wish that he would take it sometimes. I am glad taking Ava's away was non-traumatic; that can be soooo stressful on kids. You New Beginnings looks awesome! I bet your girls have so much fun with you!
