Trip back home!!

We are back home after two wonderful weeks in Alamogordo New Mexico visiting all of our great family. We had so much fun we never thought we missed it so much until we came back to Idaho.
We loved seeing all of our family. We went to an apple festival with my parents and then that same weekend went to a night club with Chris' parents that was so much fun!! The best part of the whole trip was watching Vance bond with all his family I still would have to say he bonds the best with his grandpas and his uncles. He calls my Grandpa "PIPA" ha ha we have no idea where he got that and he calls my dad "PAPO" he calls Chris' dad "Papa" and Chris' grandpa "POPO" poor little guy has a different name for them all. But he loved it there so much there was a lot for him to do and get into. His new favorite thing to do is play with trucks and he calls everything trucks including cars and motorcycles. We thought he was going to be bad from being so so spoiled but he is back into his routine sleeping in his own bed and going to school like he was never away all he said was bye mommy and walked away no kiss no nothing :( but we are still trying to get him away from cokes and nanny(candy) darn those grandparents ha ha but that's what grandparents do. Here are just a few pictures from our vacation.

costume birthday party!!!

Last night was Vance's best buddy Weston's 2nd birthday. Vance dressed up as one of the munchkins of of the wizard of oz. I tried with the costume but it really didn't come out how i wanted it to. but here are a few pictures.


He was mad because he didn't want the shoes on


he is happy as long as he is eating and in this
one he was saying CHEESE!!!



I think we are going to get him a punching bag
because he loves to hit things!! he was upset when it wasnt his
turn any more



After the party buddies hanging out in pj's and
figuring out what all of Weston's toys could do

The INSEPARABLE duo!!

It has really taken Vance some time to get along with Marley. But know that he has they are inseparable!!! Even this evening i put Vance to bed and he was mad at me he was screaming and hitting his door and Marley would just stare at me like hey ok lets go get him and when i wouldn't Marley went and waited at Vances door kind of a im here she just wont let me help you haha it was to cute!!

Vance and Marley

i know it has been forever since our last post. But since Vance has started school he has been doing really well he listens a little better and talks alot more. We finally got a dog for him his name is Marley and he is a pure bred boxer. They get along so great! Marley follows Vance anywhere he goes and is already protective of him even though Vance likes to hit him with things. But on the other hand Vance is pretty protective of him as well. Here are a few pictures of Vance and Marley.


This is Marley

And so it begins....

Today was Vance's first day of pre pre school and let me tell you I thought it was going to be more tough on me but it wasn't to bad. He did really well and made cool things. It was waiting for the time to pick him up that was the hardest. When we got in the car Chris asked did you like school? And Vance's response was I DID!! We both were surprised he said that. Its hard to say our little boy is growing up fast!!!
