Morning Walks

So as the weather has gotten nicer and the skies a little clearer, Tayden, Tanner and I have been going on our daily morning walk. We live right next to the greenbelt in Pocatello and it is really a nice little path to walk. I still have some baby wieght to lose, and this makes it a little easier. It goes right next to the river, that happens to be pretty brown and murky, but still super shady. Here is my favorite spot to stop.


It has a nice little bench, but the real reason I stop is because.....


Of the ducks! I love to stop and feed them. They are so fat from being fed, but its fun. Who knew wildlife could be right outside your door step! Haha.


I just added this picture because everytime we stop Tanner guards Tayden in his Stroller. Its pretty funny. I love my two little guys!

Tanners New Do

As everyone pretty much knows, I have this little dog that I absolutely love. I know sometime I act like I don't, but I seriously do. He is my shadow and I adore him. He was quite scraggly and in total need of a hair cut. So that is what we did. They went pretty short this time, but its still cute. Here is a before picture. (Which I love! Tayden loves watching TV with Daddy. Isn't the cutest thing? All my boys.)
And here is after. He is affectionally and not so affectionally by some, called the 'rat dog' or 'mexican chiuaua'. He loves to burrow under our covers on the bed, and I caught him in the act. Dang dog!


* Just another quick update while I am blogging. Tayden was so sick this weekend. This morning he was coughing so hard he was throwing up all over the place. And not like a little spit up, like piles of bile and mucas. It was awful. I knew it wasn't just a cold and something wasn't right. I took him to the doctor and it turns out he has a double ear infection. Poor little guy! He is know on antibiotics and should be better in the next few days. Its amazing how my heart hurts for my baby. I understand now that unconditional love you feel for your kids. Its amazing.

Hello Baby Tayden

Lately, when I have been talking to Tayden I tell him "hello" alot. I read somewhere that if you repeat an easy word over and over to a baby, they will start to mimic the sound. So anyway, we tell him "hello" quite often. This morning, we were laying on the rocking chair just hanging out. I love to sit and cuddle with him, and do that for about 15 minutes each morning. Well, today, I thought I would record a little bit of him on my phone. Tayden has this new obsession with putting everything he can get his hands on in his mouth and gets fairly frustrated if he can't. So, needless to say, when he saw my shiny new phone...he started reaching for it and got a little whiny. That is explains why 95% of this video clip is all commotion. (I finally gave in and let him hold it.) However, the last 5% is awesome! Once Tayden got the phone he immediately calmed down...and here is what happened: He mimicked "Hello!" It is so cute. I tried to upload it right to this post, but I couldn't get the sounds to work. So click on the link and it will take you to my facebook. You should be able to play it straight from the there. Enjoy!

So apparently, you have to have a facebook account to watch the video. I will keep trying to get it to work on the blog, but if you want to see it, let me know and I will email it to you! Sorry!
