Baylor and his cow

Baylor LOVES is stuffed cow and he gets so excited when he sees it then he just squeezes it so hard!

hahaha what a cutie!

Baylor's first haircut!

one evening I was going to cut Dean's hair and Dean said we should cut Baylor's too. I thought his hair was getting quite long around his ears and the back of his neck but it was still not growing very fast in the front so we just decided to do it :) i'm so glad we did cuz it makes him look even older and manly haha I love having a boy!

Goodbye Elder Pili

We met Elder Pili 2 years ago in Montpelier at Dillon's house-he was FOB straight from Samoa and hardly knew any english. We were invited over one sunday night and he became our good friend (he loves Mya) and would always give Dean a call just to see how we were doing. He was transferred to Logan and served in our area when we lived there and would always stop by to eat or borrow a jacket (we haven't seen it since :) ) he served in my parents ward for a bit and then he was in Ogden area the last part of his mish. So we went to the testimony mtg they had in Ogden for all the missionaries leaving, he did a good job and you could tell he learned a lot on his mission. He still can't speak english very well but he can understand you a lot better. We are going to miss him but we also can't wait to go back to Samoa and visit one more person who has adopted us as family.

(dean didn't want to unbuckle Baylor so he just lifted him up haha)

Mya's first day of tumbling

Friday was Mya's first day of tumbling! she is growing up so fast!

A lady in our ward does it out of her house and I thought I would give it a try.

wow my big girl!

she followed directions very well and Mindy (the teacher) told me that she is very coordinated for her age. I had a proud mommy moment! She was very engaged and cried when we left but thank goodness grandma hansen visited that day and helped me get her out of there :)
