Favorite pastime!



So, since Josh was born we have known that he enjoys sucking on his hands. Well, just this past week, I can't seem to get the kid to stop sucking on as many fingers as he can stick in his mouth! It drives me crazy! I sure wish he would suck on a binky, but he won't let that happen! (The reason I have behind that is, when he's older I can take a binky away, not fingers!) Anyway, I have taken some pictures to capture his new favorite pastime! He's such a cute little stinker!

My days consist of one thing, JOSH! As every mother knows, your days start blending into each other and you forget what day it is, let a lone care about what day it is! Anyway, I get pretty bored during the week, but I find that I really enjoy just taking pictures of Josh. He is showing his personality more and more every day. Not only is his personality growing, but his body! I know, people can't believe that he is only 3 1/2 months old. He's a big, healthy boy! I just thought people might enjoy seeing how cute he is! Don't you just want to eat his cheeks? I get to all day!

Famous face!



So if anyone knew this about me, I always used to say that I always wanted a baby that would pull the "bottom lip" on me. It used to make my heart melt. Well, the Lord blessed me with a child that ALWAYS is pulling the bottom lip on me! I used to just melt when he did it, and I would always feel bad. Now, it melts my heart and I laugh when he does it! He does it when he isn't getting the attention that he feels that he deserves! It makes me laugh! He is so cute!

Summer Fun?



So I decided that I would buy Josh a little baby pool, you know, to give us SOMETHING to do during the days. Well, anytime I try to put him in the pool, this is what happens. He just doesn't like it very much. I guess I'll try putting nice warm water in the pool, then hopefully he'll enjoy it!

Funny boy!

At bed time, Josh gets so tired that he laughs at everything. Hearing Josh laugh is the greatest thing that I could have ever imagined. So even though we are all tired, I honestly look forward to this time at night. Plus, Dave gets him laughing so hard, it wears him out even more, so then he sleeps really well! (I try all day to get Josh to laugh like this, but he waits for Dave to get him to laugh...he loves Dave so much! It's great!)

Growing bigger by the second!




So lately Josh's favorite thing to do is to stand up. (With my help of course, he is only 3 1/2 months old!) The other day he was doing this and I thought he looked so cute, so I took a picture of him. Well, obviously the camera must have been at a funny angle, because as you can see, Josh's head looks like it takes up 2/3 of his body! He looks so funny! I thought I would share this picture! Enjoy laughing at my child!

Happy 55th Birthday Dad!


So, I know everyone thinks that they have the greatest dad in the world, but I know that I truly have the greatest dad and grandpa to Josh! I am so grateful to him for everything that he does for me and my family. I am so proud of everything that he does and am so proud to call him my dad! Happy Birthday Dad! I love you!

Happy 2 Year Anniversary!



I can't believe it has already been 2 years since Dave and I were sealed for eternity in the Salt Lake temple! It has honestly been a wonderful 2 years, full of fun memories, and life changing events! I love Dave so much, and am so greatful for all that he does for Josh and I. He is an amazing husband and father! He is my best friend, and I am proud to call him my husband! I love you David Bruce Gray! I'm looking forward to the next 50 years...actually eternity!

Last Days of Fun with Dave!





So before Dave started his new job, we really took advantage of him being home. We went to the Layton park a few times, had a picnic, went shopping (which Dave LOVED!), and just spent as much time together as we could! Here are some pictures that we took at the park with Josh!

Happy 50th Birthday Diane!

I know Diane would be thrilled to see this posted on my blog...but I just wanted to say "Happy Birthday!" You are the greatest step-mom and grandma ever! We are so greatful to you, and love you! Hope you had a good birthday!(It was on May 29th!) By the way, thanks for teaching me how to make the "Fisher" cake! It was a lot of fun! (The bottom picture is of Diane, Dave, Roy and Maxine Keck.)

Happy Memorial Day!

It has almost been 10 years since my mom passed away from breast cancer. I can't believe how time can fly! I miss very much and think about her every single day. But I know that she wants me to be happy, and thank goodness...I'm extremely happy! Here is Josh's first time to see his "heavenly" Grandma's headstone. (Doesn't he look thrilled?!)



Josh's blessing day!


So finally we were able to bless our son! It was really neat because we were able to do it the weekend that Dave's entire family was in Utah for Sarah and Chris's wedding. Dave did a wonderful job on the blessing.( He made me cry...which isn't really hard to do, I'm a big baby!) We blessed him on May 25, 2008! What a great day!

Bowling time!




At Sarah and Chris's wedding, they had it at a country club in Sandy, and it had a bowling alley in the basement! It was intended for the little kids to use so they wouldn't get bored...but the "big" kids loved bowling as well. As for the women...we enjoyed watching our husbands bowl! It was a lot of fun!
Here is a picture of Dave with Kaitlyn and Megan. (Sorry it's a fuzzy picture!)
Here is a picture of Dave with (from L to R) Jason, Logan, Derrick, Kaitlyn, and Olivia.

Wedding breakfast!




You've got to love free food! For Chris and Sarah's wedding, they had a breakfast for the family that morning at Golden Corral! It was really good!( Dave and I actually had our wedding breakfast there too!) As you can see we had a lot of fun with the family...especially Dave's sister in law Trisha...Trisha, are you baby hungry? She LOVED holding Josh! (Who wouldn't?!) Watch out James! Also, here is a picture of Olivia (James and Trisha's youngest) who is just a doll! She loves getting her picture taken! I sure love that little girl...and especially her "growling"!

Chris and Sarah's Wedding


Dave, Josh and I were able to attend Chris and Sarah's wedding down in Sandy, Utah. (Sarah is Dave's sister.) It was a lot of fun because all of Dave's family was able to be there. (Dave's family lives all over the country!) The Gray family doesn't get to get together very often, so it was a lot of fun to see each other. Here is a few pictures from the weekend wedding! (Sorry, I didn't even get a picture of Chris and Sarah! I'll get one later! For now, this dorky little picture will work!)
