Growing Up...

Talon is growing up so fast! Between the two boys, I don't have nearly the amount of time I did with Cohen to take pictures of my new little guy. Here are a few from Talon's first month.

And of course, we have to include a picture of the big brother! Cohen seems so much bigger to me ever since we had Talon. He has grown up a lot in a few short weeks. We love both our boys so much. Tyler and I always comment on how blessed we are to have these two little guys in our family.

Easter Pictures

Easter

We had a fabulous Easter Sunday with Talon and Cohen. Tyler, while we were in Vegas, took care of Easter for the boys by putting together two darling baskets full off candy, eggs, and new Easter outfits. This year Tyler had Cohen go on an Easter egg hunt in our house to find his basket. It was so fun to see Cohen react to each clue Tyler gave him and take off to find the next clue's location. I was surprised at how well Cohen was able to understand the clues. After our Easter egg hunt, we put the boys in their new outfits and went to Grandma Gloria's for another fun hunt. Of course, Cohen loved being outside and playing with Brock and his cousins. I could barley keep up with him to take a few pictures; he is getting too fast for me! I think his favorite part to the night was all the candy he got!!! Talon enjoyed being held and sleeping in his comfy blanket; i think he prefers the nice, warm Vegas weather we had enjoyed all weekend a little more than the unpredictable Utah weather!

Hmmm...can't decide which treat to choose.

Driving on the tractor in the backyard.

Playing some baseball...what else is new!

It was a little too cold for Talon so we kept him bundled up. These are some pictures I took last week of him.

Las Vegas

A few weeks ago, I attempted a family vacation with a 23 month old and a 2 week old without Tyler to Las Vegas to watch my nephews play baseball. Fortunately for me, I have an awesome family who helped me out with my two boys. I had a great time watching baseball, chasing Cohen and being in warm weather. Cohen loved being with all his cousins and caused trouble right along with them. His favorite part of the trip was "borrowing" balls from teams that left them out. I didn't realize the balls weren't his until we got home and he had tripled his collection. We did have many adventures on this trip and learned a few future travel trips for taking kids. First, don't ever stay at a casino when packing two small children in two different strollers; stay at a hotel where you can park right outside your room. It truly took 10-15 minutes to park and get to our room. Second, don't take two strollers in the first place. I can't tell you how many times I had to get two separate strollers in and out of the car along with the boy that went in it. Third, remember that naps is a must or you have screaming children. Last, it is a vacation... Tell yourself this over and over until you believe it. But in the end, I am glad I went and my boys had an absolute blast. Cohen loved being at the ball games every day and Talon loved being held by everyone.
