So, my dad called me last Friday morning and asked if Chad and I wanted to go to the David Archuletta Concert and I was like Heck Yah! Chad said that it would be a waste of money for him to go! Which I am so glad he didn't go..he wouldn't have liked all of the 12 year old girls screaming! So I went that night with my mom & dad & little sister kaylee! It was such a blast! I completly thought his concert was sold out the day the tickets were on sale because that's what the news and everyone kept saying. But then my dad read the newspaper that morning and said there were some available. We got great seats! We were on the floor about 15th row right in the middle! Yes we did have to stand the WHOLE time but it was even more fun to stand. He is an amazing perfomer. He can sing anywhere & anything and do so great! When he was done and everyone got off the stage I said to Kaylee...."he didn't sing crush....what the..." and then all of a sudden he came back out to sing Crush! Of course! It was a great concert! Still nothing can beat a Rascal Flatt's concert but David was well worth it!

Andrew's Big Party!
Well, it was Chad's party too but he knew he wouldn't be the spot light. It was a great party! We had a lot of friends and family come! We had fruit and dip and veggies and a seven layer dip for some snacks. Which it all was so perfect. We were a little worried about the weather with it being outside but it turned out perfect. A little chilly in the shade but great in the sun. I am just so glad it was good weather...there is no way we all would have fit in our home. Andrew loved being with everyone. Of course that morning he wouldn't take his morning nap and so he didn't get his normal 2 hour nap. He was a little out of it and not as happy as he could have been. But he was happy. Isn't that how it goes when you have something big planned for the kids....they can sence it and so they decide to not do what we want them to do. Gotta love it! Andrew's cake I got for free at Albertson's. (Just in case anyone has a child turning one soon at Smith's & Albertson's they make them for free). Thanks to all of the family and friends that came!
Happy Birthday Andrew!!
Andrew had a great birthday! He got some great gifts and cupcakes which was perfect size for him to hold and eat. He got a Escalade car as you can see and he loves it!! I can't believe he is already 1!! It seems like yesterday when I had him! Time really does fly by so fast! I love that he is getting more independent and is being more curious about things. Getting into the toilet paper and drawers and playing the piano! Every time I have a student doing vocal warm ups he does them with us. He is going to be a GREAT singer! We love Andrew with all of our hearts! He has been such a blessing to us! He has taught us so much and everyday it's something new! HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANDREW!!! We love you so much!!!
Love, Mommy & Daddy!!
Happy Birthday to Chad!
Well, yesterday was his birthday and I didn't get to post anything yesterday so I am today! He is 28 now! I'm sure he won't like that I am blogging about him but I am anyways! :) Us wives love to blog about our husbands! Chad had to work of course yesterday but he said he got lot's of phone calls and texts and facebook messages. When he got home from work we went to drop of Andrew at Chad's dad's house and we went to Rodizzio Grill! Man is that place to good! We ate so much food and yet I was still able to buy a chocolate at Rocky Mountain Chocolate Factory! It was so nice for us to be out on a date. After stuffing our faces we then went back to get Andrew. It was about 9:00 and Andrew was so very hyper! I haven't ever seen him that hyper at 9:00 at night! It was such a great feeling to see how excited he gets to see his mom and dad! I love that feeling! Anyways, then we came home and Chad opened all of his gifts! I made a poster and put it on our front window so everyone could see it! I hope it was a great birthday Chad! We love you so very much!
Okay this is my last post of these pictures! I promise!
These are his pre-birthday pictures! He is going to be so great at digging into his REAL birthday cake as we can see!!!
His first bite into the cake!
Part 1
These are some of our family pictures. Amy Twitty did an amazing job. When I get the rest of them I will post them. We did these pictures last Thursday early afternoon. What was so funny about the weather was at my house it felt like 50 degrees and no wind and we drive 5 minutes to Lehi and it's 30 degrees and so windy. We all froze to death but it was a lot of fun. I bought about 7 balloons that morning so we could take cute pre-birthday pictures of Andrew. I tied them to a chair Amy brought and right after we sat him on the chair the wind took the balloons away! We both started to laugh and it was funny and so I didn't get any pictures with him and the balloons. However.....I did go over to Amy's house to take more of just Andrew with a free birthday cake! I know I should have waited till his actual birthday to let him dig into a cake but we got some GREAT pictures! Let's just say he wanted to hold the cake in his hands and take bites out of it! It got everywhere! Those pictures will come soon as well! So, anyone who needs an AMAZING photographer.....Amy Twitty is your girl!!
New Food Ideas
Okay everyone......I am needing some new ideas for snacks or meals for Andrew. He has been picky with what he eats and I am running out of ideas. He has four teeth but still can't eat completely normal foods. He loves fruits but i haven't been able to really get him to love any vegetable. He will sometimes eat cut green beans but that's about it. Does anybody have any ideas??
11 Months!
Andrew is 11 months old now! He loves mac & cheese and bananas. He would eat those two foods all day long if i let him. He of course loves chocolate...I know i'm a naughty mom for giving it to him but sometimes you just have to give kids things to keep them entertained for a minute or two. He says da da and uh oh and almost says mom. He loves to wave to every one and everything. He still loves to watch his baby einstien movies. He gets so excited and waves to the movie everytime it comes on. He is now facing forward in his car seat. He LOVES it because now he can see everything and it's much more easier for me! I LOVE it myself! He is still crawling and loves to hold hands and walk everywhere! He is my sunshine and my sweet little angel! I love Andrew to pieces!!!!
