Dino sized fun!

My sis-in-law, Lindsay, and I took all the kiddos to the Arizona Museum of Natural History (the dinosaur museum) yesterday. It was a lot of fun!! Andrew got a little freaked out by the anama-tronic dinosaurs, though. lol

Puzzles in the Activity Center

Andrew doing a "rubbing"

The kids stand behind the big screen against a blue screen and join the western! They had a great time making silly faces.

This is a waterfall several stories high. These are the dinos that scared Andrew! ;)

One more cool one. (Andrew wouldn't get close enough to stand in the picture) ;)

This is a cool water feature in the courtyard were the kids (and Moms) can Pan for gold. Andrew might as well have jumped in for a swim...he was soaked!
Andrew dumping water and sand. Fun.

Jumping Bean!

Andrew loves to jump...off of things! Anything!! In these pictures you can see Grandma Palmers favorite game. *dripping with sarcasm* It gets even more interesting when Spencer climbs up to join the fun.

Center of Attention

Spencer loves to make people laugh and to be in the middle of everything. Here he is climbing in and on Grandma's toy drawer that doubles as a barrier to the video cabinets.

Look at me!

Button Pusher!

New Pictures

I love my Target Portrait Studio!! I could spend way tooooo much money on pictures just because I love them so much!!! Here are a few of my favs from Spencer's 1 yr sitting. Just sit back and enjoy the pictures!!!

Thanksgiving

We had a great Thanksgiving this year with the LeBaron side of the family. The beauty of living in AZ really comes to life this time of the year. We enjoyed an outside dinner! I know that seems perfectly normal to all of the natives, but I'm still getting used to the idea. Grandma and Grandpa LeBaron really know how to put on a great party and we had a ton of family there to enjoy it all. They provided a gingerbread house to decorate for every child! All of the Aunties brought enough candy (for decorating) to last through Christmas! Andrew had fun helping me decorate, but mostly he wanted to eat the candy. Spencer just tried to eat the ping pong balls all day long.

Lots of cars...lots of family!

My masterpiece

Spencer, with a mouthful of ping pong ball. Nice.

Slacker

I realized just how long it has been since I posted a blog when I went to upload my pictures from my camera last night. I had 100 pictures! So, I promised my mom I would load up the blog today with lots of pictures....here goes...

Happy Birthday Spencer

Spencer turns one this week, so we decided to celebrate a little early with the family on Sunday. We had, of course, a Halloween theme. Derek and I made spider cupcakes that were so much fun and sort of silly looking. I think the pictures say it all so here you go...
