Vote Yes on Prop 8!

Our family has a deep desire to do what we can to protect the marriage between a man and a woman. Proposition 8 is not only about being pro marriage but it is about our rights as citizens. As parents we will not have a say in what they teach our children in school. Our children will be taught about gay marriage in schools without regards to their morals. Marriage is a sacred issue to us and we are the ones who should teach our children according to the beliefs in our home, not according to what the world has accepted as being "normal".

My Sister in law said it best when she listed the terrifying consequences if this law should pass:

“1) Legalizing same sex marriage may force some charities and adoption agencies to close their doors unless they openly supported same sex marriage

2) Many churches would have to change the way they operate and would lose their tax-exempt status unless they perform same sex marriages

3) Public schools would have to teach same sex marriage in the classroom and same sex issues in sex educationIn fact children are already being taught that same sex marriage is acceptable. No government or entity has the right to indoctrinate my children in moral aspects that I don't agree with.”

We believe that our Heavenly Father has an immense love for all of his children. We know that he lives and that he sent his son to die for us upon the cross. We love Jesus Christ and we try so hard to exemplify his example….we are not perfect. We are in debt to him and we want to stand in faith for what is right. Our message today is to help us Save Marriage and Save our rights as citizens’. This vote will affect our world more than we know. If it goes the wrong way there will be more rights taken away than given. If we vote yes, then no right will be taken away from anyone.

Baby did a Bad Bad Thing!

Yesterday I found a pretty purple marker and I descide to suck it dry, but not before I colored all over myself. This is officially my first rebelious moment, and I loved every momnet of it, until they took it away. It was a non toxic marker so I'm ok and it came off really easily.

Here are a few mug shots of my parents catching me in the act.

I didn't do ntohin...you have no proof!

Such a Cool Guy!

My mom says that I looked really cool in my beenie that Auntie Shelley got me. But, she said that I was growing up too fast and that I look like a big boy. I can't believe that I'm going to turn one in two months... Then I will be a big boy!

Elvis impression!

I can do sign language

My Mom and Dad have been teaching me how to do sign language. I already know how to say "eat" and "milk". Just recently I learned how to say "more". So now I have my parents wrapped around my finger. Whatever I want I get...hahaha. They think that they are in control, but how come evertime I do my sign language they pretty much give me everything I want? I love them but they are suckers for me.

The many faces of ME!

I make a lot of funny faces. Today my Mom took just a few. I have tons more!

Wild Animal Park

Mommy and I were invited to go the Wild Animal Park in San Diego by Maria, my Aunt Emily, my Uncle Derek, and my cousin Jackson. It was really fun. We saw lots of animals like cheetas, lions, and birds. We took a bus to go see all of the really cool animals like the giraffs and rihnos. We had a blast!

This is the zoo keeper feeding the cheetas

this is me and my standing next to really pretty birds...I look a little worried
Here is the gang that was there with us...except Maria...she is taking the picture.
Me and my Mom got to ride a huge rihno.
My Uncle Derek is showing me a real praying mantice that he found.
It was really sunny so I had to whip out me cool dude shades.
This is the bus that we rode. I think my mom had more fun playing with me than looking at the animals.

First Beach Day...no daddy :-(

I had my first BEACH DAY! We went without my Dad because my Mom wanted to spend time with my Auntie Becca before she left. We missed my Daddy very very much! I wasn't the happiest camper on the beach but I had my moments. When my Mom took me to sit in the water I splashed a lot. Then a bigger wave came and got me really really wet... that is when I didn't like it. All in all we had a fun day! Just wish my Dad could have been there.

Here is me liking the water..posing for the camera

Leave me alone....I'm pondering.

Mine and Mommy's feet in the sand

All of my really cool cousins...You are probably wondering were I am. Well I am getting cleaned off...the sand in my diaper did not feel good...that is all you need to know.

My First Time on the Boat...WHOO-HOO!

My parents took me on the boat for the first time! It was soooo exciting. When we were going slow I didn't like it because the life vest was too weird but when we went fast I was screaming and laughing and having so much fun!

This is me with my Aunty Ashley. She is staying at our house for now. She thought I was funny!

Awww...I love to feel the wind in my hair

WARNING! The boat will make you tired. So I just fell asleep on my Aunty Ash and my Aunty Becca.

...And then I woke up and it was back to screaming and laughing

My Aunty Becca loves me! She came down from Maryland to hang out with us. The two girls are hers...they are some cool cousins. Her son Tyler was there too..I like him a lot because people call us both Ty!

Movie and Air Balloons

Last week we went to the park and watched a movie on a big screen. I'm not too into movies yet but I love to be outside and with my family! But I was into the air balloons that they were blowing up. It looked really cool at night because we could see them light up! It was so neat...I could watch it for hours.

Here is me and my mom watching the movie...it was way past my bedtime but I stayed up and didn't cry!

My Dad and I really like the balloons! He proposed to my Mom after taking her on an air balloon ride.

My First 4th of July!

This year was my very first 4th of July. We played in the pool all day with lots of my family and neighbors. Then we went to the church parking lot to watch fireworks...Man, I was doing the monkey face all through the fireworks! I couldn't get enough of it! They were so cool!

Here I am the morning of standing up in my crib all by myself

When my Mom was getting the food ready she put me in my bouncer seat. When she came back in from outside she found me like this. I had fallen through my seat and I was still playing away..until I saw her of course..then I started crying.

Here is me and my best pal! I love my dad and we are almost matching with our flag t-shirts!

My mom and I always have fun together!

Here is my cool lookin family! Look how happy we are together!

I wanted to throw this in because it is an excellent shot of me...MAN AM I CUTE OR WHAT!!

Photo Shoot with Mommy!

My Uncle Mike let my Mom borrow some studio equipment to take pictures. I modeled for her. I did really good since I can sit up so well. I had many different faces but my most famous (and the one I am most known for) is my Monkey Face. It is a twist between "Blue Steel" and "King Kong". I also did a happy look, a sad look, and many others that I find to work well with my bone structure. Oh and my Mommy did good behind the camera, even though I don't think I can take a bad picture.

Oh ya and I have been really sick for a week. I had to go to the hospital for dehydration because I was vomiting so much. So I want you all to notice how great I look even though I've been sick. That is allllllll Nat-ur-al BABY!

Today I Sat UP!!!

My Mom has been practicing sitting up with me for a couple days now. But, today when she sat me up I stayed sitting up for a long time. She kept helping me sit up then she would take her hands away and I was sitting up all by myself really well! I am very proud of myself and my Mom and Dad said that they are really proud of me. You can see in these pictures how proud I am of myself.

My First Airplane Ride!

When my Mom, my Aunty Shelley, my cousin Laura, and I went to Utah for my Grandma's birthday party we flew on an airplane to get there and back. It was my very first airplane ride and I though it was really cool! I liked to look out the window.

Here I am looking out my window at all the little people.

I was very happy and excited to be flying on an airplane

Then My cousin Laura and I took a nap. I woke up when my Mom tried to bother me with pictures.

First Father's Day for my Dad!

This was my Daddy's first Father's day. He was a pretty excited Dad! I got him this cool shirt that says "super cool Dad" on it, because he is a Super Super Cool Dad. We always have fun with eachother!
Man how I love my Dad! I mean just look how happy I am!

Happy Father's Day Daddy!
