Dear James,
 Today we went to Jump Around Town with a lot you your friends. You all had so much fun! There were slides and a big jump pillow and jump houses. Your favorite was the Jump pillow. Everyone had such a great time! I can't wait till we get to go again!

I love you James

Dear James,

Happy Valentines Day!
We had fun today! You and I played games and read books in the morning. Then daddy came home for lunch just in time for you to nap in his arms while I made lunch. Then we played some more and you help me get dinner ready.
After dinner you had fun knocking on the door and leaving gifts and then answering the door and getting a little gift for yourself!
You got a stuffed Dumbo, some clothes, a water bottle, a big ball, and some candy!
You had such a great day!
You then got to skype with Grandpa Greg! He love you so much and you think he is so funny!

When it came time for your bed time routine you cuddled up with daddy like always and we read your book and said our prayers and then the most amazing thing happened! We put you in your crib and you didn't even whimper! Usually you cry for a minute or two but quickly fall asleep. But tonight you gave us both kisses and hugs, waved bye bye, laid your monkey down and laid down next to him and fell asleep. I think I heard you talking to yourself a few minutes later but it was so cute!
You are growing up so fast and you are so smart and mature for your age!

I love you James!

Dear James,

Today we started swimming again! You love the water and you love to go swimming.  We are going to have so much fun these next couple of weeks!

I wanted to help you do something fun for everyone for Valentines day so we took some pictures of you holding a sign for everyone.
this is what really happened....

 

And this is what I got to send to everyone! 

I love you James

Dear James,

Grandma and Grandpa took us up to Ikea today and we had fun walking all around and trying out everything.  Your favorite of course was all the kids stuff! I think you thought that those rooms were really yours!


We then all went to the BYU basketball game, Uncle Garrett even came!
You would clap and shout wooo whoo! You loved it! BYU won of course!

I love you James

Dear James,

Mommy and Daddy had to go to a dinner so Grandma and Grandpa got to babysit you!
They love to spoil you! They took you to Toy's R Us and let you run around and play with everything.
You love them so much!

I love you James

Dear James,

Today your friend Bella came over and we made Valentines for daddy!
You had a blast coloring and drawing pictures for him! Then you had fun showing off and sharing your toys.  You guys had so much fun reading books to each other and playing with Fry.
When daddy came home you gave it to him and you were so proud of yourself!
Daddy loved it!

I love you James

Dear James,

Today was Super Bowl Sunday! We were cheering for the Patriots but didn't really care too much.
We taught you to say Woo Whoo and throw your hands up in the air and you did that all game long!

After the Super Bowl daddy played fetch with you. (Daddy is very silly)

I love you James

Dear James,

We went to the Aquarium today and you had a blast!  You loved to watch all the fish swim by and you kept smacking your lips like the fish.  You wanted to see everything!
You even tried to pet the sting rays as they swam by!

You thought the penguins we funny when they would zoomed around and played.

But I think your favorite thing were the otters! You loved them! They would swim right up to you and you would just scream and laugh at them! You were just so happy! I think if they would let you, you would jump in and swim with them if you could.
(I didn't get any pictures of this because it was so crowded and I had to hold you so I didn't get any good shots of you with them)

You were sad to leave but we told you we would come back soon and you were happy about that!

One of the really strange things you do while we are out places is just lay down in the middle of the floor and just hang out there for awhile.  We were out getting groceries and you just wanted to take a nap or something in the middle of the isle. You are just happy and like to just lay there for a minute or 2 before getting up and helping us shop.
You are so funny!

I love you James

Dear James,

This morning you found a old paper towel roll and and started to peel off little pieces and throw into the vent in the bathroom and every time you did it was blown back up by the air. You thought this was great! You were so excited every time it happened!

Later we went mini golfing at Trafalga.  You had a blast! We knew that we weren't going to be doing much real golfing so we just let you grab the golf balls and roll/throw them in the hole.  Then you hit some with the club and then you would just lay down in the middle of course, and then you would kick them. You had so much fun! 

I love going places with you and just having a good time! 

I love you James 

Dear James,

Oh how I love you! I love everything about my day with you, everyday! 

Today I took some pictures of how messy you get when you eat. You love to do everything by your self and eating is your favorite thing to do! 

I love how much fun you have in everything you do! You make life great! 

I love you James 

Dear James,

Today you got to play with your friends Bella and Siri at the mall.  You guys had fun playing on the tree and crawling through the log.  There were lots of fun things for you to play with.
And you were so nice to share your gold fish with your friends.

But then it was time to go and you were sad to leave but we will get to play with your friends again soon I promise.

We then went to BYU so daddy could play with you while mommy went to class.  You love to play with daddy at his work.








I love you James
