Things to Remember

8/2010
Dane needed to go the bathroom and I was trying to help him get on the toilet and he kept trying to get off. Me-Dane get on the potty, and stay on til you're done. D- Mommy, I'm all done. Me-No, you're not, stay on this toilet. (then I was trying to hold him there with my hands on his belly...I have long nails:) D-Move your freaking nails mom!!! It hurts my belly!

Dancing Under The Stars

A few of my friends and I went to "Dancing Under The Stars" in Provo the other Day. It was at the Scera Shell outdoor theater. It was so much fun to just watch incredibly talented dancers for 3 hours, Its heaven for me. Center Stage (a studio in Orem) had their Elite teams perform and then some, "Utah Dance Stars" also performed. Gev, Chelsea Hightower, Matt Dorame, Kelly Baker, (from SYTYCD...tour is on Sept. 23rd), Louis Van Amstel, Ashly Delgrosso (Dancing with the Stars) to name a few:) We went to Spaghetti Factory before the show, we had such a fun night. Gev & Chelsea from SYTYCD
There were so many amazing performances, but of course we're big fans of these two. They did amazing! They also performed the contemporary piece that Sonya choreographed to that older song...anyone that is watched SYTYCD will know which one I'm talking about. That lady may have a Mohawk, but she is freaking good. We all loved it!

Lindsay, Joelle, Casi, Errin, Kami
***Anyone want to see New Kids On The Block in November?? I can barely sleep I'm so excited..."Please don't go girl" "Step By Step, ooo baby" "You've got the right stuff" and their new "Summertime" song...it will be so fun and you all know it:)

Baby Proofing

We FINALLY got our house all baby proofed. We've got the outlets covered, the cubords locked, and the kiddy gate blocking the stairs to the basement. He never ever has even realized we have stairs going up to the bonus area, so I thought I'd only need one gate until he started being curious about the other set of stairs. BUT OF COURSE he is such a smarty pants that the day I put the one gate up he all of the sudden knows how to cruise up those stairs! Guess we'll be making another trip to BABIES-R-US!



He's so proud of himself!

Feeding the Ducky Ducks!




Daddy and Dane running away from the scary ducks.
Last Sunday we went to the parkway to feed the ducks. We had no Idea there were going to be SOOOOO many hungry little ducks. We ended up being surrounded and we had to kinda kick them away. It freaked me out, but Ben and Dane thought it was funny. I loved watching Danes face the whole time, he gets so serious and observant. He stares with his mouth open...we all know which parent he inherited that from:) I'll be able to sympathized when gets made fun of, poor little dude. Anyways, we had such a fun time!

Ashleighs Bridal Shower

Ashleigh and Uncle Rob (her Dad)
For some reason all the pictures from the bridal shower of Ash turned out super blurry, but I found this one. We had a bridal shower for Bens cousin Ashleigh this past Saturday at my house, and we had such a good time. We're all so excited for Ash! She is such an incredible person, she is sweet, talented, smart, spiritual, beautiful inside and out....and still manages to be one of the most humble people I know. We did a video interview of Dave so everyone could get to know him, it was so freaking cute, he is a great guy. They get married Sept. 26th, so not too much longer!! Well, it was so good to get together with Bens extended family. Aunt Gloria (Ashleighs Mom) really knows how to have a great time:) I wish I had more pictures of the shower that turned out better! I'll track some down.
Ashleigh & her soon to be Hubby Dave


Heidi Banford, Joelle Banford, Holli Banford

Here are just the sister-in-laws at Ashleighs shower (the only not blurry picture of the day). We all feel very lucky because all 3 of the Banford brothers are such sweet and loving husbands...and we all know it because of their sweet and loving parents! We all adore our Mother-in-law, I know that is a rare thing to be able to say;) Anyways, we had such a fun day!

Congrats Jess and Nate!!

Last weekend my sweet friend Jess got married! We had such a good time in St. George for the Wedding weekend. Nate and Jess are going to make each other so happy. Love you guys!
