Beavers and Turkeys

Ya I have a little Beaver!!

Thayne chews on everything!

I didn't notice for a couple of days.....all along the inside of his crib is "beavered"!

I had to rig up this nice expensive towel and wire decoy!

(He just woke-up from a long nap....nice turkey tail on the side!)

In awe at the lights!!Codys mom Jill made us Thanksgiving dinner!! It was so good...both his sisters were there and this is Thaynes cousin Josslynn....so cute!

Thayne loves his ball.....he chases it around for hours!

My dad and his singing partner Smeags!!

Where does he get his good looks??? :)

9 months

Thayne was the cutest little ninja for Halloween!!

Thayne and his cousin Peyton.....the brave knight.

this picture of Peyton looks exactly like his mom when she was young!!

Thayne's 9 Month Pictures

My personal fav!!

Thanks to my sis Tina for taking these adorable pictures!! He looks so big! He's been army crawling for a couple months now and recently learned to crawl on his hands and knees. He is pulling himself up on everything and is a little monkey. He also has some major rhythm and loves to dance whenever he hears music (Cody says he gets his dance moves from him.....sorry but I don't think so!!)

Well the trip to St. George was really fun and relaxing! My grandma is the best host ever! She is constantly getting you whatever you want! She was either cooking, playing with Thayne or we had a hot game of cards going. My mom and I went to a play at the Tuachan amphitheatre; it was really good. I would recommend going! I think next year Footloose and Annie are playing! Thayne loved to see both his grandma and his great grandpa and grandma!

Thayne has this thing with his tongue lately.....he looks like a little turtle!
Thayne with his Great Grandpa and Grandma Wickham.....don't they look too young to be "greats"?? The trees in the background are my grandpas pomegranate and fig trees......they are delish!
Thayne loves to chew on everything still!
Thanks grandma and grandpa for having us and thanks to my mom for taking us!! As for the mighty hunters......they didn't see too many elk, but Cody had a lot of fun!! He said he should have been born a hundred years ago and he would have been a pony express rider....he would love to ride his horse all over the country! Thanks dad for getting everything ready and for taking Cody!

Cowboy UP!

Sorry most of my blog is pictures of Thayne, but I have to say this is the cutest wrangler butt ever!!

Cody is headed off to experience the big elk hunt with my family! Good Luck! They are headed up by Big Piney, Wy., so Thayne and I are going to St. George with my mom to visit my grandma and go to a play!

Thayne, Maddison and Addison Chillen in the Hammock!

Fall is in the air!

Thayne and I usually go for a walk a couple times a week, I have to say fall is in the air! The time of year to get bundled up!!
Tons of toys, and Thayne plays with the toy box......of course!! Isn't that the way it goes, he also loves a week old birthday balloon from Grandma Jill's birthday and an empty puff container!

Chillin' in the wagon!

Cody took this picture!! That's all I have to say about that!
Thayne loves cartoons....already!

Man.....time sure does fly by! My sis brought it to my attention I haven't posted anything for about two months!! It feels like it has been a really busy summer, but I don't know what I've really done! My sister Tiffany and her family are now home from Alaska!! We are excited about that! I've been so engrossed in politics lately....I had to watch the Democratic National Convention and now I'm trying to watch all of the Republican National Convention that I can!

This past weekend we went to the annual Putman/Mills family reunion.....I have to say I'm pretty much a sissy!! Cody was so excited to camp with Thayne and sleep in a tent! Well we went to bed, Thayne and I in a sleeping bag together and Cody in another. They both zonked out, but me....my back hurt on the hard ground and I was cold and I couldn't sleep and they were singing so loud around the fire and...O.K. I'll stop! Needless to say, we packed up at 10:30 p.m. and drove 2 hours back home! I was thinking about the pioneers the whole time and how tough they were and how I would have never had made it! Sorry to everyone for dogging out!

I just have to say I love this time of year and I love the smell of fall!

6 Months Old!!

Thayne

I can't believe Thayne is already six months old....it seems like yesterday we had a sweet new baby! He is getting such a cute personality!! When he smiles he uses his whole mouth!! He is so fun and we love that he is part of our family! My sis Tina did these awesome pictures!! There are more on her photo blog if you can't get enough!! ( There is a link under our family picture!) If anyone needs pictures......she's the one to call!

Bear Lake

We went to Bear Lake a couple weekends ago for a Wickham side reunion....

it was fun to see everyone!!

Thayne and Grandpa Redmon....Big shoes to fill (in this case hat)!

Cody was feeding Thayne some yummy green beans......yuck!! Thayne has this new thing were he shakes his head "yes"......He was wildly shaking yes, Cody wasn't paying attention and Thayne got a mouth full on the forehead! (Nice facial?!?)

Not much has been happening here!! Cody is really busy with work and trying to fit in a horse ride here and there. I'm trying to take and online class, but haven't made it too far! I also need to get health insurance ASAP, anyone have any suggestions on who to go with?? This weekend Tina and Ava came up and we went up High Creek and made tin foil dinners...they turned out really good!

Thayne and Ava hang en out!

Cody can get Thayne to laugh so hard! He has two cute dimples in his chin when he smiles:)

So engaged in the conversation!


So after the trip to the mountains.....Ava and Thayne needed a bath! First time for both in the big bathtub!!

All clean and ready for bed!!

First hair-cut! Kind of jagged around the ears! Oh well a new style of side burns!?!
