Oliver's 1st tooth!

Hi! I'm Oliver. 

I'm 6 months old and my first tooth is growing in on the bottom!

I like to...

roll and roll and roll all over the floor

make messes wherever I go

eat rice cereal

chew on my favorite elephant toy

and play giggling games with big brother, Calvin.

I can't wait to start crawling!

Calvin's 1st Dental Appointment

I've been dreading taking Calvin to his first dental appointment.  I prepped myself for the worst. I imagined him kicking, screaming, and being as uncooperative as possible. Not that he hates brushing his teeth -- he's just had bad experiences with nurses and doctors in the past and I figured we would have a similar experience.

I'm happy to say that I was pleasantly surprised.

Calvin was a perfect patient.

He happily laid there as our dental hygienist scratched, squirted, brushed, and flossed his teeth. 

What a champ.

And no cavities. YAY!

I'm so grateful his first dental experience went amazingly well.

A Typical Tuesday Night

Life is good.

Did I mention Oliver can roll over now? 

Well, he can. 

And he does. 

As often as he can. 

At the most awkward moments.

But don't worry, I'm there to help him get out of those sticky situations.

I love this little guy.

Family Hike

Our first family hike as a family of 4 was a success! 

We hiked 2.5 miles with our boys at the San Tan Mountain Regional Park. Calvin pretty much jogged the entire trail and climbed as many big rocks he could find. He was a good little trooper. I'm grateful for his enthusiasm to get out into nature and go on adventures. Oliver enjoyed the ride and took a nap. He's such a good baby :)

Our Faux Easter Sunday

Since we didn't get dressed in our Sunday best on Easter day this year due to watching General Conference, we dressed up the following Sunday. My boys are so handsome.

Too bad Calvin refuses to cooperate for photos...

This is as good as it gets!

Happy Easter! ...last week!

Easter Weekend with our buddy Justin :)

Justin came to visit!!

This Seattle-guy has definitely missed the sun and the Scott Family. We loved hanging out with him in the land of sunshine and warmth.

We enjoyed some sun rays at the pool. Calvin and Justin are buddies :) In fact, Calvin thought Justin was his friend. Not mom and dad's.

Then the adults (Justin, Jake, and I) went out to the IPic theater out in Scottsdale. That was AWESOME! We sat in HUGE, super comfy reclining chairs. There were complimentary bags of popcorn, blankets, and pillows. We ordered fancy appetizers and drinks with our personal waiter. And, oh yeah, we saw the movie Furious 7. I loved the movie. Especially how it portrayed a special tribute for Paul Walker. Rest in Peace, man!

When the movie was over, we walked out and saw Paul Walker's car from 2 Fast 2 Furious. Ain't she a beauty?

One night, we made homemade pizza for dinner. Calvin and Justin did a great job. They were delicious!

Justin's last day was Easter Sunday. Calvin loved hunting for his eggs in our field. The eggs were pretty hard to find, but Calvin gathered them all...we think.

We loved having Easter fall on General Conference this year. It's a wonderful way to think of Christ as we listen to His prophets speak to us. 

Happy Easter!! Thanks for joining us, Justin!
