7 Months and counting....

Some of the fun things about Crew at 7 months:
-He LOVES his mommy and daddy
-He LOVES to play with Booduh, and Booduh loves it too!(maybe not AS much)
-He LOVES to eat "real" food
-He has 2 teeth and 2 more coming in
-He sleeps for 12 hours at night
-He rolls every where or scoots on his cute little bum
-He tries to crawl but ends up doing some crazy yoga poses. They are pretty impressive
-He went on his first camp-out this month
-He makes a really funny face when he eats mashed potatoes, he makes a puking noise as well! It is HILARIOUS!
-He is a little ham when we go out in public. Smiles at everyone and I mean EVERYONE!!
-HE IS MY BEST FRIEND!!!! I love you Crewzer!

DVD's Galore

This is what I walked downstairs to this afternoon!Crew has found his new favorite toys... all of the DVD's we own! It was so funny because at first he was laying on his back and pulling them all off, then he sat up and got a better grip on them and started having fun again! He is the silliest little boy! Oh how the messes have begun, and I'm sure I haven't even seen the beginning! This wasn't that bad! He also started to say "Dada" again. He stopped there for a little bit, but now he is back on that kick! Why can't he just say "Mama"? I practice it EVERY SINGLE DAY! No luck!

Working out & Dieting to look like this:


OK so maybe not JUST like this, but you know what I mean! (Look at her abs! Can I please have an order of those? I know the picture is a little scandalicious but I had to post it!) Now is crunch time! I have 2 more weeks until I go on a cruise and I need to lose another 10-15 pounds! I am so afraid I won't hit my goal. I have been working so hard to reach it! If I lost even 10 pounds I would be thrilled. 15 would be FANTASTIC! I would be as thin as I was in High School! I will get there don't you worry but the question is can I get there in 2 1/2 weeks? So any of you who want to try to tempt me with going out to eat or eating crap, NO THANK YOU! These next 2 weeks are "Hell weeks!" That is what I like to call them! So if anyone wants to go workout, walking or whatever, CALL ME! I will go! I'll keep you posted on how I do when the 2 1/2 weeks are over.
** PS I had to post this so I had something to help motivate me. If I don't keep to my word, EVERYONE that reads this will know! How embarrassing would that be?**

To Gettin' Dirty & Camping!!

This weekend we went with our good friends, Brad and Kelly Tate, and Brain and Ashlee Gardner, up American Fork Canyon and went camping. This was our first time going this year and Crew's very first time going ever! He did so amazing, but then again we wouldn't expect anything less than that from him. He is always a delight to be around. The spot where we camped out at was perfect. It was shaded by hundreds of trees and had a great spot for eating and sleeping. The only thing it lacked was a river running through it. Other than that I would say near flawless! We got to roast hot dogs/turkey dogs, make some delicious S'mores, which Reese's Peanut Butter Cups! AMAZING!!! I typically do not like S'mores and I LOVED THESE! I got the chocolate to melt to a perfect stage and then slapped it on the graham cracker. TASTY! We also got another treat that night and that was from our little Owl friend. I have never seen one in real life. It was just a little guy but so cute! It kept looking at Booduh wondering what he was doing or maybe how he could come down and snatch him. Speaking of Booduh. Are you kidding me? He got so dirty I almost didn't love him. He was black by the end of the camping trip. Not only that but with little prickly things ALL OVER HIM! He jumped up on me and that was the end of that, cause I started to get hives! Not sure if he had lots of stinging nettle on him but man, I could not touch that dog. Right after we got home Nick washed him and it took like an hour to get him all cleaned and lookin' good. Now I can hold my puppy again! I love camping. I love the smell you take with you from being by a camp fire... that doesn't come out for days!!! I love that Crew slept all night, and it even rained! He woke up once when Nick and I got in the tent and he pulled his head up and looked at us, smiled a HUGE smile, and went right back to sleep! I could just squeeze that little boy! I love him so much! He is becoming such a little man. I can hardly believe it. Can I freeze time please? He is growing up too fast! I need my baby back!!! Well, thanks to the Tate's and Gardner's for a fun camp out!
