BIRTHDAY PARTY!!!

We had to have Deron's birthday party a week later than his original birthday, due to us moving at the same time. We had a little get together for our families. I was feeling guilty that his party was not on his brithday, but then I just had to get over it. I realized that he has no clue what was going on and he did not know that is was not on his birthday.

We had a salad, cake and ice cream. I attempted to make his cake. I thought I did pretty good but then Blake had to ask me what it was. Well everyone else knew what the cake was I don't know what Blake was thinking. I thought he would have dug right into the cake but no he had no clue what to do. After we tried to get him to bite into it we cut a piece and tried it that way. NO he still would not eat it with his hands. We had to feed it to him with a fork. (I don't know if I should be happy about that, at least he has good manners?) He would get the frosting on his fingers a lick it off but that is about all he would do. Don't get me wrong he did get frosting all over but I thought he would go for the cake too.

It was fun and we can't believe he is 1! We love you little man!


It is a dog if no one else can tell.



Oh the wonderment on his face!




Yes I know I am a stud!

1 Year Old

Deron turned 1 on April 2nd. We cannot believe that we have a one year old. Where does the time go? He is keeps this house running and he is the sole entertainment for us. It is so fun to see what he learns everyday, and the wonderment that comes along with his knowledge.

- He is not on the charts for his weight 18.42lbs
- He is in the 95% for his height 31.43in
All this explains why I can't find pants that fit him!
- He is crawling all over the place and getting into everthing he can.
- Every time he sees or hears a dog he start barking.
- He has 7 teeth, 4 on top and 3 on bottom.
- He is not liking grown up food and just wants his baby food.
- He wants to go outside all the time and play with the dogs.

We decided to let him stay in his PJ's for the whole day. What is better than being comfortable and cozy on your b-day. We just hung out and played most of the day.



This was an early birthday present from Gpa and Gma Harmon. He loves it!

We got him an icecream cake he did not like it so much for the first taste. The next night was when he enjoyed that most.





This is the first time he was able to actually get outside and play around. He loved it. He discovered rocks and dirt and of course had to taste both!

Bryce's Wedding

A few weeks ago one of my younger brothers, Bryce, got married! We went down to St. George for this occasion. It was nice to get away for a few days, especially when it was nice and sunny. He married Cherise, who is a doll! We love her so much! Everything turned out great.

Deron was a huge trooper that day. He got about an hour nap and then he usually goes to bed at 8 but he did not get to bed until after 10. He did get fussy for about a half an hour then he kinda went into a stupor and just staired at everything that was going on. He loved all the attention he was getting and would smile for the camera.

They had an open house in Salt Lake last weekend. This is when Deron had his first tate of cake and of course loved it! Every time he was by someone that had some cake he was reaching and whining to have some. So of course everyone was giving him some, can you say sugar rush! He was so happy and just wanted to walk around, well that would be fine but he can't do it by himself yet. So of course he roped G-pa into walking him around almost the whole time.

We had a great time celebrating this milestone! We love you guys!

Being with grandma

My dad and Kathy came up one weekend and we all went to dinner then we went back to our house. We had a great weekend with them and Deron loves to see and show off for them! My aunt and uncle came with us. My aunt loves to see Deron and Kieger. It was great to see everyone!

Priceless

I found a few pictures that I love and just wanted to share them.

He started crwling over to me and I captured the perfect expression that we see all the time.

He always goes to the back door to watch the dogs play outside.

He loves reading time at night.

This is as far as he has gotten out the dog door. We are waiting for the day he goes all the way out.

He loves to put his toys in anything he can. This is an everyday event. I will find his toys in any drawer that he can open.

We got home one day and he looked so peaceful sleeping in his car seat. We love this little guy so much! How could you not.

Superbowl

We had a few people over for the Superbowl. WE had fun and had tons of food that was delicious. Deron loved all the attention and playing with his cousin Jaxson. He loves to follow him and do what he is doing. Deron to our suprise started climbing up the stairs he scared me because he had never done this before. We watched him and stood right beside him as he made his adventure up the stairs. He did great and lost his balance a couple of times. His face is priceless and it showed his determination.



Deron will climb over anything or anyone if they are in his way. He does not care if it Landon, Zoie, our coffee table, or us. This is a prime example of what he does. They just so excited to play with eachother it is cute.

Hanging out

We had Scott, Chantell, and Kieger come over one night to just hang out. It was great to have them over. Deron loves to see any of his cousins. He tries to attack them and always wants to see them. Kieger is so cute and such a good baby. He was so calm and just layed there.

This is when he saw Kieger and started to crawl over to him.

He is so adorable!


He loves the camera and knows just what to do.
