An Update from the [almost] Utards

I can't believe how fast time flies. We have now been in Utah for a month and a half. It feels like home now. I guess we are well on our way to becoming Utarded. Harrison is really liking his new job and I am loving being a stay at home mom to this crazy hooligan:
(This is his "I'm gonna get you" face)
Dylan is growing up so fast. Can you believe in less than two months my baby is going to be 1? Crazy! He is a little ham. He took his first real steps on May 8 and he is getting braver and braver. He dances, growls, and gives wonderful kisses. :) He has 6 teeth. He says "Mom." Mostly when he is upset about something, but still. He says "Dada" too, but not as often.
Nick has been in the MTC for 2 weeks now. We decided we should take a before and after picture since Dylan will change so much in the next two years. We miss him, but we are grateful he is serving.

Harrison got me lilies for Mother's Day. It was my first real one. I was pregnant last year, so I was mostly a mom, but Clint (my brother) says it doesn't count. I'd like him to try being pregnant for 9 months. I think he'd change his mind. Here are my beautiful lilies-

We were able to take Dylan to the zoo on Memorial Day. We went with Erin (Harrison's sister) and her husband Trevor. Paige and Brad (Harrison's cousins) were also able to come. It was a fun day, but Dylan had a runny nose and watery eyes most of the time and was kind of miserable. I think he is still too little to appreciate the zoo anyway. Luckily he took a good nap in his stroller so we were still able to see what we wanted to.

These are my two favorite people. I ♥ them.
So there is a little update. We are doing well and enjoying our new place. We love being close enough to family to get to spend time with them. We are loving the sunshine.

Until next time...

Fun, Fun! I cannot get enough of the Dylan and I can definitely see a likeness to what you looked like as a baby with that big adorable smile and squishy cheeks. So cute!
