We're Baaaaaack!

Okay it has been FOREVER since I blogged and I guess our biggest news is that we're back in Utah after 4+ long months! Aaron did awesome this summer, it was a pretty good season for our team and we're just glad to be done. Carter took a few days adjusting back to our house (and he's also soooo close to walking) but it feels so good to have things back to normal... and it also feels weird great that I don't have to go back to school =)

So Aaron did the extension for 2 extra weeks in Cleveland after me and Carter flew back so we've been missing him lately. Aaron was going to be back today but actually surprised us, and showed up 4 days early!! This meant lots of lying to me as he was on the road, saying he was working really hard, and for the record I did catch on and had high suspicions that he was coming home early, but I was surprised nonetheless!

Anyhow, the first thing Aaron wanted to do when he got home of a long summer with hard work, was go for a hike. So we went out and bought a baby carrier and headed up to Midway...

This is Carter before we left with his SKINNY JEANS on... Aaron hates skinny jeans on girls, but especially on guys so I was so surprised when he let me buy some for Carter but hello, they're so dang cute!

MIDWAY:
Carter was loving the ride =)

He got a little sleepy but still managed to strike this pose.. so silly!

It was so pretty on our little trail- only 2 miles but we didn't want to overdo it with a kid in tow hehe

Just chillin in his carrier

I'm surprised that Carter isn't really scared of much... he loves slides and swings

Family pic!

And we just about hit a deer like 12 times... they are everywhere up there!


And then on the way back, we had a major impulse buy.... Aaron bought me a mountain bike! He's really into that and I haven't really been.. in fact you shoulda seen me try to get on this bike and ride it around, it was embarrassing. But once we took it home and I rode it around the block a few times, it came back to me, just like they say =) So now we're planning to just get those carriers to wheel Carter behind us and we're all set for some fun bike rides this fall! Love my hubs!

Woo hoo! You're back. I always like hearing your updates. That's awesome you got a mountain bike! That will be fun to go on family bike rides. Ok, so I'm jealous that Carter isn't scared of slides. Caden is super scared of them!

Skinny jeans = pure baby deliciousness. I want to pinch Carter's little legs off. I may need to invest in a pair for Avarie. His little facial expressions are classic...what a ham :) I am so glad Aaron is home and you get to do a little partying! It is well deserved. You are looking so fab, girl. Keep it up!!
