So Landon is the cutest, happiest baby that I think has ever been born! He is such a HAM! Everytime he sees you his face lights up into this amazing smile, his eyes get so big and bright and he flashes you those cute little dimples! He cracks us up so much! His new thing since he's learned to crawl and worse climb is that everytime I turn around he's climbing on the furniture. In these pics he's climbed onto Carson and Lilli's chairs and of course when I look over at him he smiles that smile and you can't help but laugh and forgive the kid for being so darn mischievous!
So Carson just celebrated his 3rd birthday on the 3rd of June! It was a cute little party. My mom always goes all out for the kids parties and this one was no exception! Carson lately is into Thomas the Train. It's been great for getting him potty trained finally! So my mom threw him a Thomas themed birthday party including the home made train cake that she made for him! It was such a fun cute party! We had a pinata...thomas of course and a silly string fight! And although it was so fun it was a little bittersweet for me because everytime I look at him he looks older and older and it hit me that pretty soon he'll be starting preschool, hopefully in the fall, and I just don't think that I'm ready for him to grow up quite yet!! If I could I'd leave my kids little forever!
Ok so the other day Chris started wrestling on the floor with Carson. It was so cute! Then I got a great idea to have the other two gang up on him as well! I grabbed a camera and got a couple of pretty cute shots!
This is my baby Landon! Currently he is 9 months old. He's the cutest thing, but don't let him fool you he is nothing but trouble!
Ahh my baby girl Lilliana! She is 21 months old and she is cute but a true girl! She's sassy, and man does she have an attitude!
My baby boy Carson! He actually just celebrated his 3rd birthday! He's getting so big I hate it and love it at the same time! He makes me smile everytime I see his cute little face! I love it that he looks just like his Daddy!
Ok so the other day we were out taking pics of the kids for a father's day present. I just loved this picture of the three of them! I was just so happy to catch the rare moment where one of them wasn't crying and they were all actually getting along. Aren't they so cute...at least we think so.
Here are a few more pictures from our Costa Rica trip. Three weeks sure does result in a lot of pictures! Ok so we've got a picture of the beach beauty Lilli and a picture from when we had Landon's blessing while we were there. And finally a family portrait in front of one of the many many waterfalls we visited! It was amazing!

We often drive by the new Cowboys stadium and Carson will ask about it we'll tell him it's where the Cowboys play football...the other day we went there to drop Chris and a few of my brothers off to watch a soccer game, and Carson asked about what they were going to watch, I said soccer this time not football. A week later at church when we were walking the halls Carson asks about the pictures of the Temples on the wall so we'll tell him they are Temples and explain about them and he turns to us and asks, "But what about the soccer Temple? Where's the picture of the soccer Temple?" (it's a BIG stadium and I guess to him it looked like it should be on the wall of Temples.)

(A little rude.)
