I decided to bring the kids into the studio for Jake's 1 year pics, but he was tired so I didn't get anything out of him, but I got a bunch of cute pictures of Claire.
Here's a few of my fav of Jake

Summer fun
We went down to Utah this past weekend to go to the Manti pageant with Chris' family and to see my mom who is in town and my sister's new baby.
The pageant was really fun, there were a ton of people and I was surprised how they were able to fit so many people in. Claire loved the pageant and it was a really good learning experience for her. Jake was a good boy and slept through the whole thing. Claire also got to meet a few of the cast members which was fun, she was a little nervous at first but was really enthralled with their makeup and costumes.
We actually got out of Manti quickly, unfortunately Claire had to go potty. So we stopped at the first gas station we could find and there was a line at least 15 people long. Well since Claire is still new at the potty training business I wasn't sure she could hold it so I took her out to the car, got a pull-up on her and we continued to drive to find somewhere not so crowded, to my dismay there was no gas station for 40 miles! She was crying because she really needed to go and kept holding it, she wouldn't go in her pull-up, feeling like the worst mother in the world we pulled over on the side of the highway and of course she wouldn't go outside either. She made it about an hour before she finally gave in, which I think is some kind of a record for a 3 year old. Unfortunately her pull-up couldn't quite hold it all and she was soaked for the rest of the drive. It's definitely a drive I will never forget.
We had lots of fun with family, Claire of course was so sad to leave her cousins, but we'll be back next week for more fun times.

A week in Pictures
Just had a few cute pics I wanted to post. We took Claire to the circus with Chandler, Rowan, M&T and Parker. We also took the kids to the Drive-in to see "UP" - cute show by the way. We had a fun week just enjoying our cute kiddies and time with family.

It's Official...
My baby is ONE! I can't believe how fast the year has flown. We went to Green Canyon hot springs for the afternoon and then did pizza and I made him a basketball cake. It was a fun day. Jake is growing big, he has 6 teeth, he's saying 5-10 words and doing a few signs. He just loves to play, get into mischief and be a little boy. We love him and are so grateful to have him in our family. He is such a good, content little guy.
And...
Our house is up for sale! Yep we are finally making the move into something that fits us a little better. We're so excited and hope everything goes smoothly.
