BOO

 McCoy has been doing the cutest thing lately. He's learned how to entertain us by playing "peek-a-boo." I love his cute little eyes when he plays. They light up with happiness every time he gets a reaction from us. I just love this kid! He shows me everyday how much he's learning and of course, how much he loves me:) 


 ps. on this movie, you can ignore my nasty white legs and really awkward position:) McCoy loves when I do this with him I just had to put this on here because of McCoy's laugh. I always do extreme things when I get home from work because of how much I miss him. I always get him really wired:)

oh happy days

Our wonderful weekend began on Saturday with an amazing walk down the Provo River's trail. McCoy, of course, loved the water and the walk was even better. Every time we go outside, McCoy's little eyes light up. Here's some more pictures of our little family and also a cute video of him on the swing--another thing that McCoy loves.

Our next exciting adventure was CAMPING!! We all had a blast! It was so fun to spend time with Kara, Craig and cousin Ruby doing what we all enjoy so much! We found this hidden camp ground up the alpine loop and it was so secluded you wouldn't have even noticed that it was a holiday weekend. There wasn't a person or sound anywhere near us. It was the perfect get-a-way for all of us. McCoy loved to get nice and dirty and mom didn't even care:)
 
Our campsite---couldn't have gotten any better than this!
Trevor had the best time burning this bucket on the last day. He said he didn't want it anymore and wanted to see what would happen. It actually burned better than any of the fire wood we brought. Fire has got to be the best part about camping and McCoy already had his eye out for it. Anytime we were next to it, he was always staring. Here's a video that reminded me of something my dad would record on our home videos growing up. It's got such a "home video" feel to it, I just had to put in on here. (link below)

chillin' by the fire 
After we left the campsite, we headed down to Vivian Park for lunch. This too was a blast and McCoy, like always, loved it!

 This weekend kept getting better and better. It's sad to see that it's already over but it was a BLAST and McCoy is creating all these memories with us...and now there's a blog about all of it, so we'll be sure to never forget it!

this is what makes my life beautiful

I can't tell you how much these two mean to me. This is what makes my life beautiful! Just the thought of them brings such joy and happiness to my life. Everyday McCoy does something to surprise to me and make me love him that much more. Trevor has been such a good support with taking care of McCoy and the way he loves McCoy means so much to me. He's such a good dad and does everything that I ever ask of him. He's the best husband and McCoy is the best son. I have the perfect little family and I couldn't ask for more.

So now that the cheesy part is over, I just had to post on what happened today. I went shopping for the first time in about a month. It was pretty intense and I made sure that I got the best deal on everything by price matching at Wal-Mart. It really saves a lot of money but takes a lot longer to make the list and do the shopping. The shopping part can be really hard especially when McCoy needs to come with me. He's the cutest attraction at the store but after about 1 hour, he's usually done and then even more done about half way through. He was such a good sport though. I got to the check-out and by this time he had a really runny nose, poor guy. The nicest lady behind us realized how much I had ahead of me before we could get out the doors and she took the fun opportunity to entertain him. She was really sweet and it helped out a lot to just get all the groceries on, off and back into the cart while McCoy was happily making this lady's day with his special smiles and giggles. 

When I got home, I had about 8 trips up to my apartment on the 3rd floor. The first load I brought McCoy up and then got him entertained so I could run back down and up, and down and up...and so on. Anyway, when I got the last load up, I found McCoy like this.....
 I couldn't help but to take a picture...and lots of them
 I just love this kid. I can't explain it any better. He means the world to me and something as simple as this is what makes my life beautiful! 


The other night Trev was taking pictures of McCoy after his bath. He loves his baths and he is always so happy and in such a good mood. We made sure they were "G" rated so I couldn't help but to put them on here...and again, this is what makes my life beautiful!!!
