Baby Quilt

When I was in Utah my friend Lisa gave me this beautiful quilt that she made for Baby Landon! I absolutely love it! Thank You so much Lisa for all of the hard work you put into making this quilt for Landon! It is just darling!

Texas Trip

After going to Utah, Landon and I flew out to visit Paul again! It was exciting because I wasn't planning on visiting him twice, but there was so much to do in Texas, we had to go back!

This is Paul in his Army uniform.

Our first couple of days there, Paul was sick, so we didn't really do much. One night though, we did go swimming. It was Landon's first time in a swimsuit, and first time in a pool. He looked kind of confused when we put him in. First of all, the water was kind of cold, and second of all. it's so much bigger than a bath tub. He didn't really kick his legs like I thought he would. He just looked very content the whole time.

Here's Landon in his swimsuit. How cute is he?!

First time in the pool.

Landon and Mommy in the pool.

On Saturday we went to this animal park. We drove our car through the park, and it was like an African safari, in Texas. We got bags of food, and we would stick our hands out with the food, and the animals, for the most part would come up and eat the food from our hands. It was lots of fun.

This is one of the Zebras. I think this is a great picture.

This is me feeding a Zebra...they have big, scary teeth!

Here's Paul feeding some goats!

After the animal park, we went to this amazing outlet mall and shopped around for a little bit. After that, we went back to the hotel and went to bed. Sunday, we went to church and just hung out with each other until my flight left. 

Here's Paul and Me at the airport before my flight left.

Utah Trip

On July 9, Landon and I headed up to Utah to visit The Mason Family for the week.  We had lots of fun. We went shopping and out to eat...a lot! We also went to St. George, and the American Idol concert! I saw the concert in Glendale, but it was just as good the second time! Maybe even better, Utah fans are crazy! Here are a few pictures from our trip! 

This is Landon before we went on the plane to Salt Lake.

Us outside, he was chillin' in his diaper!

I found this lovely new diaper bag! It is waterproof and very cute and practical! I love it. My old one ripped and Landon's stuff outgrew it =(

We went to Thanksgiving point. Zack had an ice cream cone, he loved it!

This is our friend Adam. He was watching Zack and Landon on Sunday, while Lisa and I got ready for church! Thanks Adam!

This is Landon after church. I loved this outfit, so I had to get a picture of him in it! 

This is Landon getting ready to run some errands with us. I thought he looked cute!

Here's me at the American Idol concert! 

Michael Johns wore a shirt that said "I voted for David Archuleta," all of the fans went crazy when they saw his shirt!

Carly said that Brooke took her to see the Mormon temple and that she thought it was very beautiful!

And the best performance of the night...David Archuleta....the fans went nuts for him!

We had such a great time in Utah! Thanks so much Adam, Lisa and Zack for letting us stay with you guys! You guys are awesome!

Texas Trip, seeing Paul!

Thursday July 3, was exciting! I had been apart form Paul for 2.5 weeks and I was so ready to see him! We arrived in San Antonio around 6 pm! Paul picked us up and we went out to dinner with people from his Army group. Here's a picture of us!

The next day, Fourth of July, Landon had a really bad cough and goopy eye, so we took him to the hospital. Here's a picture of him at he hospital. For him being sick, he's pretty smiley!
After the hospital we went to the Rain Forrest Cafe at the Riverwalk. Afterwards, we walked around the river. It started raining! 
After the rain stopped we went to the Alamo. Here's a picture of us in front of the craziest tree I've ever seen!
The next day we went shopping at The Shops at la Cantera. After shopping we went to Sea World! Here's a picture of Landon and me in front of the dolphins. It started raining when we were on our way to the dolphins!
After seeing the dolphins we watched fireworks, then went to the Shamu show! It was awesome! It made me want a pet whale! J/K! Here's Paul and Landon while waiting for the show to start!
After Shamu we ended the night by seeing the pink flamingos. Here's us in front of the birddies!
Sunday, we got food and just hung out. Landon was exhausted by the end of our trip. He took a nap while Paul helped me pack up my stuff. Around 7 pm Paul took me to the airport. I left around 9 pm =(. I was so sad to leave, I called Paul when I got home and told him to schedule me another flight to go see him. So I will be going back to Texas in just over a week! YAY!

On  Wednesday June 25, Landon and I took a trip to Arizona to visit Paul's family. This is a picture of Landon on his first flight! He did so well! All of the other passengers were surprised by how well he did!

We got in kinda late on Wednesday night. Paul's sister Sheena wanted to show off here cute nephew at her work, so we went there, then we went to Paul's aunt and uncles house so they could see Landon. The next day, Paul's mom, aunt, Landon and I went out to lunch at  place called Mangoes. It's a Mexican restaurant on Maine St in Mesa. I love it! It's my must go to restaurant whenever I go to AZ.  Then we went shopping, and afterward Paul's mom made a yummy dinner, then I went and stayed the night at his sister's house. On Friday I hung out with Paul's dad. He had the day off, so we went and visited his mother so she could meet the baby. Here's a picture from our visit!

Afterwards we went back to Paul's dad's house and he made me a yummy dinner. He has tons of fresh veggies growing in his garden, so we ate some along with some yummy pork chops! Tasty! Saturday I went to lunch with Paul's mom, sister, and her boyfriend. We had Macaroni Grill!  Mmm! After lunch we went to the Fashion Square Mall in Scottsdale! It was amazing! They have every single store I shop at all under one roof! I loved it! Here's a pic of my fabulous finds at Babystyle, Janie and Jack, and Baby Gap....so cute!
I found a book at Babystyle called Yummy Yucky! I thought it was cute, so I got it for Landon! This is my favorite page!
Sunday, we went to church and went to Paul's cousins house for lunch, and games! It was so much fun! We played Universal and Nertz! I had a blast! Monday I walked over to a scrapbook store by Paul's dad's house. I got a few scrapbooking items, then made two pages when I go home. Then Landon met his cousins for the first time! It was so cute to see how the little kids acted around Landon. They all wanted to hold him! It was so cute! Tuesday, July 1st, Landon turned 3 months old! Here's a picture of him! Oh he's so cute!
Tuesday also was so exciting! I went to the American Idol concert with Paul's mom, sisters and aunt! It was awesome! It was long, but I didn't mind! I had a blast! Here's a few pics from the concert! 



Wednesday I went to Hobby Lobby with Sheena, Paul's sister. I had never been to one before, it was AMAZING! It is the biggest craft store I've ever been in! Plus they had tons of toile printed stuff, which I love so I was very excited about that! After Hobby Lobby we went out to lunch with Paul's aunt and uncle. Then I hung out with Paul's dad for a couple hours, then went to Paul's moms house to stay the night. Pauls sisters and their men were over as well for dinner. Thursday Landon and I went to the airport and we headed to Texas to visit Paul for the Fourth o July weekend! We had a great time in AZ!
