Fun at Home!!

My boys have gotten so big...I can't believe it. Mckay is doing so good learning new words(Spanish and some English). He loves to clean up his toys and sing the song a long with it and he is the best big brother. Mckay loves to make JJ laugh and even reads him stories (pretends to at least).
JJ is so cute.. he is the happiest baby ever. He is already sitting up and almost crawling.. he stands on both hands and knees and then he rocks back and forth. I love to spend my whole day with them .. days can get crazy but I wouldn't change it for anything. I love my chunk monks.

Sledding with the boys!!!!

bechipawpaw@hotmail.com (Betsy) — Thu, 22 Jan 2009 05:26:00 +0000

I have to admit sledding is so much fun... I think the boys would also agree with me. It was a beautiful day outside and we really enjoyed it as a family.

Mckay's Birthday

bechipawpaw@hotmail.com (Betsy) — Sun, 18 Jan 2009 05:29:00 +0000

My first time decorating a bithday cake (Not too bad). Mckay liked it. Happy Bithday my big boy!!

Mckay really liked his presents but he was extremelly excited about one.. Mandy and Checho's present was a pair of cleats.

He loves pizza so that is what he got!!!

Mckay's first birthday present, his first pet and the only animal I can handle.

We celebrated Mckay's birthday all week. We took him to a BYU basketball game and he loved it.

Warm welcoming

Visit with Santa

bechipawpaw@hotmail.com (Betsy) — Sun, 21 Dec 2008 19:10:00 +0000

Mckay was a little shy at first but then quickly warmed up to Santa after a few hi fives. Checho (Santa's little helper) hooked us up with a great deal for working there - FREE! Mckay just wanted to look at Santa at first but didn't want to sit with him. Then, after the real photos were taken, Mckay kept going back to talk to Santa by himself as we were deciding on the photos. Mckay kept saying "Hi Santa, Hi Santa". It wasn't too busy so Santa was able to talk with Mckay for a while. Santa was awesome!! Mckay jumped up on his lap to get a candy cane and became best friends with Santa. As we were leaving Mckay kept saying, "Bye Santa, Bye Santa" as we walked away.

Goose Hunting

bechipawpaw@hotmail.com (Betsy) — Sun, 21 Dec 2008 15:59:00 +0000

Brian shot his first goose last week. He had a blast! He went out with our good friend, Patrick up in Layton, UT. The goose had a leg and a neck band. For those that don't know, Brian explained to me that the leg band is rare to find on a goose or a duck and is like a trophy to hunters when they shoot a bird with a band. The band is to track the migration of the birds throughout the world. The neck band is almost unheard of and is something really, really rare. Brian was both surpised and excited to come home with this goose.

Soccer friends!!

Mckay loves soccer... and also his girlfriend. They played so well together, every game that Brian had (Brian came first in his soccer championship). They followed each other around... so cute.

Mckay's new bed & carols on sunday

bechipawpaw@hotmail.com (Betsy) — Wed, 10 Dec 2008 21:50:00 +0000

Mckay finally got his own big boy bed. He loves it, although every once in a while he climbs into the crib to lay with his little brother.

The other night we heard a knock on the door and found a group of people dressed up singing Christmas carols. It was one of the coolest things ever because they had llamas! They were actually BYU students who rented the llamas for the day and decided to dress up and walk around Provo singing Christmas carols. Brian put Mckay in a jacket and ran out to see the llamas. Mckay kept making his horsey sounds as he pet the llamas (you can see this in the first photo). It was funny. Brian says that the brown llama even left a Christmas gift on our lawn. If you look at the second picture the llama is just beginning to squat a little to leave her present. Other than the parting gift it was really neatand Mckay loved it! He kept waiving bye and making the horse noises as the llamas walked down the street.

We are ready for Christmas!!!
