Guess what Mikey found...

Yep, my makeup. It was in the middle of the afternoon when Mikey was laying in our bed to watch a show. He usually doesn't fall asleep by himself for naptime, but it's been known to happen and it was nearing that time. So when it had been quiet for awhile we thought it just might have happened. Finally Lance went upstairs to check. He was not asleep.
Instead he had my makeup out and this was the beautiful makeup job he had done. I guess I could be worried that my son wants to play with makeup, but he kept referring to himself as Spiderman while we were looking in the mirror and trying to wipe it off.

A Blessed Day

Today we had Luke's baby blessing in our ward. It was a wonderful day and Lance did a wonderful job. We missed all family and friends who couldn't make it, but we sure enjoyed those who could. Unfortunately for me, I only had a few moments to enjoy the post-blessing festivities since I had to run back and teach Relief Society for the third hour.

Mikey is normally quite the man on camera, but in the few minutes we had to snap a family shot he was NOT in the mood. What a cute family anyway :)

Hey guess what! Those are MY boys :) What a lucky girl I am

Heather and Ben

Luke is thoroughly enjoying his party

All the men! (Sorry Herb, if you're going to pose like that, I'm going to post it :)

It's so hard to say good-bye

Guy Smiley

Luke has been flashing little smiles for a while, but he has just started to give us smiles for long stretches of time alowing us the chance to snap a few pics. And what a cute smile it is!

This one is actually the beginning of a smile since he opens his whole mouth to smile. I love it.

To the Zoo!

Well Mikey took his first visit to the wonderful Hogle Zoo with some of his cousins

Being the animal lover that he is, he appeared to thoroughly enjoy his visit. It was also an improvement from the last zoo visit at Busch Gardens in Florida in that he has learned to loudly say good-bye to each animal so that he can see more animals instead of crying after leaving each one, not understanding he'd see more in just a few minutes.
Though very recently Mikey has discover fear. He has suddenly started to deem things "scary."
Therefore, these pictures that we going to be of Kate and Mikey ended up with only Kate since Mikey didn't want to get too close to the giant gorilla or the giant elephant.

But hey, rocks? Now those aren't too scary
