Cowboy Payson

You probably remember that Payson's Big Boy room is a cowboy theme. So, he was very excited to go to the National Western Stock Show this year. DIllon's cowboy hat does not quite fit him yet, so he stayed home with Nana and Grandad. Dillon was spoiled at home and Payson was spoiled at the Rodeo. Next year for sure Dillon will be attending with us!

RInging in the New Year....Keystone Style

The family loaded up the car - and it was loaded with stuff - and headed up to Keystone for New Years. Payson was thrilled to celebrate the holiday with cousins Susie and Porter. Even more fun was Payson's 1st sledding adventure. Let's just say - he loved it and we had to make it come inside. It is hard to sled in the dark

Christmas Celebrations 2010

Christmas was extra special this year - Payson was so into the holidays and it was so fun that we are now a family of four with Dillon. Todd and I know that we need to enjoy the fact the Payson did not wake up until 7:30am and we had to wake Dillon up around 9:00am. We are sure that we are going to be waking up a LOT earlier next year. Santa had an extra large sleigh when stopping at our house!

Christmas Cookies for Santa

The holiday season was a great time for our family this year. Nick is our Elf on the Shelf, and he kept a watchful eye on all of us to make sure that Santa did not skip our house. One fun family tradition we have is....making great cookies for Santa. This year we wanted to make sure that Rudolph had his own special cookie.

Another big "THREE" Deal

Payson's turned three in October - with the arrival of Dillon, we pushed his party to be a few weeks late, so that just allowed us to have a celebration all month long. So many great friends were able to help Payson celebrate his big bash at Pump it Up. Check out the pics to see for your self!

One, Two Three....look at me!

I know, I know - I am a complete slacker with this blog. But, it is going to be a New Year's Resolution to be better about my updates. Until than, I am going to blame it on my maternity leave. I am having so much fun with both boys, that I rarely get enough time to surf the web. Of course I get my daily dose of Facebook, but that is about it. Enough stalling, here are the pictures - can you believe that Dillon is three months old already. Slow down Baby "D" I am attempting to soak in every minute of everything you do!

As a reminder, here are months one and two....




and here is month 3. Packing on the pounds and we are loving every squishy inch of this baby. Dillon has got to be the most relaxed baby - we refer to our time with him as our "Chillin with Dillon time. Payson is great with his baby brother, always wants to help out and is great at making him laugh and smile. Todd and I are laughing and smiling because for the last month Dillon has been sleeping on average 10-12 hours a night. It is amazing. He stays up late with us, usually going to be around 11pm, but sleeping until 8 or 9 the next day! Going to be a tough re-adjustment for when I go back to work. If only I could win the lottery and than that would not be a problem!

Welcome Dillon Michael Land

A few words, as I believe that pictures tell this entire story better. Dillon Michael Land joined our family at 1:43am on 9/17/10. Quick to enter this world, less than three hours at the hospital and he was here. Payson is a proud big brother and we could not be happier with our newest addition to the family!
