Davis's 2nd Birthday!

We have a lot of birthdays in our family between october and december so by the time it got to his birthday he loved blowing out candles. so he blew them out and wanted to do it again. He is looking like such a big kid now.

Here's his cute dump truck cake. thanks mom and mel for helping me decorate it.

He really liked opening everything and would say "oh" when he opened it. a few people gave him clothes so mel asked him what do you think is in it? he said "clothes."

he noticed that grandpa is taking his picture.

Trick-or- Treat!

This was the first year davis understood halloween and the whole tricker treating. i got him to say trick-or-treat and it was just so adorable in his little voice. we took him to my work as well door to door and he would tell them thank you every time they gave him some. we had so much fun!
Roarrr!!!!

My cute little lion. i'm so biased but he's so stinkin cute with his little pudgy belly and little pumpkin.

Pumpkin Patch

I'm sorry everyone i have a lot of blogging makeup to do. i haven't had a camera and i finally got these pictures so sorry they are from clear back in october. i've wanted to show all the fun we've been having. we love fall and going to the pumpkin patch as just a fun activity. davis loves riding in the cart and picking out the pumkins. these are pics of him being silly.

He's home!

He's arrived! So many missionaries came home that day and everytime one would come down the escalater we would think it was him. it was sad cuz a lot of the missionaries had no family to greet them. i don't know why so many weren't there but eventually he got here safe and sound. so thanks to all missionaries in general, thanks for all you do!

The fam ready to greet my brother caleb at the airport coming home from his mission from oakland california. Its great to have him back, he's such an awesome kid!

summer playin!

i haven't had a camera so i haven't really wanted to blog but my mom took some so i thought i would update finally. Davis is getting so big and it seems like doing or saying something new everyday. we love to swing together and when i ask him if he wants to get down he shakes his head and says no like 4 times, but when he wants to get down he'll just practically jump or fall out. he's such a funny kid!
swinging with mom!

4th of July!

With Uncle Taylor showing him the jets, fire trucks, and cop cars. he thought they were so cool.

We had a wonderful 4th, we hope everyone else did as well. Davis and i went to the centerville parade with my family and had a barbeque afterwards. Davis loved the parade and of course loved the candy they were throwing. Also thank you Nolan and Jesse for serving our country and so that we could do these fun things with our families and live in such a great place.

He loves to swing now all by him self and this is him swinging at the barbeque. He's such a big kid now.

Then we went and had a little party at the hill's for ora's birthday and just hung out. we were roasting marshmellows and doing sparklers. i lite mine in the fire and instead of lighting them it ignited them and they were just on fire instead of sparkling. i'm such a dork, a little blond moment.

Here's tage and jesse lighting bottle rockets that shoot out of the pipe. its so true that boys are such piros no matter the age.

Father's Day!

I finally got some time to sit down and update our blog, sorry its been forever. For father's day we spent the day at both our parents houses. it was just a nice day to all be together and remember what nice fathers we have. this is a family picture we took because makell and jaxon were here from Arizona.

The kids love playing in the water in the sink for hours. We let them all play in the sink as you can see in the picture below so we let them play in there diapers for a while. they loved that, ellis and davis wrestled and tickled eachother. it was so cute!

Such good friends!

What a cute pie! he loves to play in the sink and get wet!

MVP!

Davis loves to play basketball on his hoop in the kitchen. so i put my korver jersey on him and he thought it was so cool and just played basketball for forever. he is such an adorable kid and getting so big so fast. i just keep enjoying cute little moments like this.

Here's him shooting, i'm not lying when i say he's actually really good. he makes it a lot of the time.

korver for 3... swoosh!

Easter Egg Hunt!

Davis found the egg but thought it was more fun to put it through the fence

Aunt Mel showing Davis what's inside

We went to an Easter egg hunt and my grandma and grandpa's house and Davis got to hunt for eggs. He didn't quite get the concept of finding the eggs so we would point them out to him and he would pick them up and put them in his bucket. But he would see all the eggs in the bucket and start trying to take them out. He sure knew how to find the candy in them and eat it. We had a really fun Easter and we hope everyone had a fun and nice one too.

We want Spring!

Davis loves to be outside and i can't say no when he's trying to put on his shoes and drag me out the door. The weather has been awful but i bundle him up and take him out and he never wants to come back in even if his fingers are going to fall off. He also loves to play with basketballs and dunk them in the hoop. He says "bubball" all the time pointing at anything that even looks like a ball. I can't get him to come inside if were dunking the basketballs in the hoop, he could do it all day. He usually has a huge tantrum and this look below if we have to go in. If only Tage and i had been a little taller he might have had a chance to be the next "D Hill". We both can't wait for spring and hope it comes soon so were not freezing our butts off playing basketball.

This is Davis helping dad put up some smoke detectors. He wants to always help us even when something is really heavy.

Look how cute he is all ready for church. Talking on Dad's phone make's him look like a little Tage, so adult.

We have such a cute kid! I updating sooner so hopefully i can get increasingly better at keeping it up. I'll try and get better at writing longer messages as well.
