first word- first tooth

By Desiree -
"Da- Da" this wonderful word has been rolling off of nixon's tongue for the past few days. and, it seems like he knows what he is saying. he certainly doesn't say "da-da" to me. he says when he sees his papa. it is so adorable.

Since nixon is talking he decided to grow some teeth too. well a tooth. he is 8.5 months old, and he has a tooth, both girls did not get teeth until they were 1. this unexpected tooth might be forcing some big changes in nixon's "diet" we shall see.

So cute. I bet that makes Maui feel good to be the inspiration of Nixon's first word.

Hey Desi,
I did notice the "da-da" at FHE. So cute. Also, remember how you were talking about those flowers at Roberts? Not sure if I should tell this or not;0), but they are 40% off this week. Now it's up to you to decide to do it now or wait and hope for a better deal later--as long as there are still some left. Oh, the dilemma.

Sage just started saying Dada too and I love it. That is impressive that he actually says it when he sees his dada!

heaven on earth?

if there was one place an avid water sports nut would pick as "heavenly" it would have to be lake powell. we were lucky enough to go this past september, and we had a ball. the great thing about powell is the calm water factor; if the water is choppy cruise around for 10 minutes or so and you'll find the right stuff. wake up at 7 or 8am and there will be calm water, go out at dusk and it is still there waiting for you. calm water. glass. the good stuff. going on this trip convinced me that we NEED a boat. my kids love the water, they are brave, and always waiting for their turn. i am not brave, i hate the water, but somewhere along the lines i learned to try to ignore the fear, and just get wet. maui and roxy wakeboarding... riley wanted a turn soo badly, but it just didn't happen here is me wakeboarding, it is fun, and when you only get to go every other summer, it is hard on your body. here we see randy fishing (these are the fish that i am sooo afraid of - what if

for those of you who opted to not take high school spanish, you have no idea (well you probably do know..)what this post is about. i need to tell dona maria (my high school spanish teacher) thanks, for teaching me such phrases as: mi casa es su casa, me llamo david vargas. and that is all that i remember, since it was nothing short of a miracle that i passed 2 years of spanish, whithout being able to speak more than 2 sentences.... we finally "closed" on our house!!! it now feels appropriate to tell everyone about it. as brian and i were both pretty certain it was not going to work out, for various reasons. well it did. and i could not be more elated. the mauis are moving back to the Ranches, hopefully in the next 2 weeks. our 3 kids who all share a room, here at my moms, will now all have their own room! we will be excited for friends and family to come and see us at our new house, and of course please feel right at home.... and since our company might not be enough incenti

Seriously you didn't think this was really about football did you? You should know us better than that by now. So Friday night was Roxy's first snowboard day of the year. It was a good time, or in Roxy's words it was GRRRRRRRREAT! Here's a few pics: Roxy packing her gear out to the car. What happens when she can't hold onto all of her gear. All strapped in and ready for the first run. Friday Night Lights Video End the night with some chicken stars from Carl's Jr. Not a bad night.
