Seven Peaks!

This summer Stephen and I decided to get Seven Peaks (a water park in Provo) season passes and today we went for the first time. We were excited to see how Will would react to the water because he loves his bath so much. I think we have a natural born swimmer on our hands, people! Will LOVES the water and cried when we left. I'm really glad we have season passes so we can go back whenever we want.

My Hunky Men! Will was trying to figure out how the water was shooting up so high.
Relaxing. We got Will a floaty suit from Walmart and he loved being able to just float along.
Splashing away!
Isn't he cute?
I can swim, I can swim!
Tired, tired boy! He had SO much fun!
P.S. Will recently outgrew his baby seat and we moved him to a toddler seat, it's still rear facing until he's a year but he loves having more room. He is getting so big! What happened to my baby? He's turning into a little boy! I love how he's giving me a thumbs up, he approves of his new seat!

Camera and Photoshop Fun!

I have been saving up for a new camera for almost a year and last week, I had enough money to get one! It's a Cannon EOS 60D, a step up from the Cannon Rebel series. I originally wanted to get a Rebel but I figured that because I actually know how to use a camera on manual mode, I would go ahead and get the next step up, it was one of the best decisions I have EVER made (apart from marrying Stephen and having Will of course ;)!

We had to order it online because our Best Buy was out of them, sad day. Yesterday it finally came!! I was SOOO excited! By the time we picked it up from Best Buy and got home it was too dark to shoot any pictures :(. I made up for it today, however.

Will and I went outside after I fed him lunch because I figured he would be happiest then. I forgot to factor in his nap time and he was a little grumpy but I still got some good shots in.

After I took about a hundred pictures, Will and I headed back up to our apartment and I put Will down for a nap and I started the daunting task of editing my hundred pictures. I only got through a few that I LOVE and I thought I should post them.

No More Helmet Hair!

It's official, Will is Helmet free! We went to the doctor last week and Will's head is now only a 2 millimeter difference, a normal person has between 0-3 millimeter difference (by the way if you ever are in need of good helmet doctor in the Provo area, Branch Hunsaker is AMAZING!). To make his head perfectly round it would take another 2 to 4 months of a helmet and I'm just not that into perfection.

I am so enjoying not having to worry about if Will's wearing too many clothes or if I can risk putting socks on him or if it'll make him too hot. His helmet also was a little smelly and kind of gross :). I do have to say, however, I miss not worrying too much when Will bumped his head but I'll get over it, don't worry.

In other news, Will has two more teeth! His incisors (top front teeth) have come in and he has the telltale signs of the Hepworth gap. No worries though, he's cute no matter what and it'll probably fill in when he gets his adult teeth like mine did. I can also feel two more top teeth fighting to poke through and when they do my baby will have 6 teeth! Holy Cow, he's growing up SO fast!

Stephen and I are both super busy right with classes. To make matters worse, I hurt my back and am now going to physical therapy 2 times a week. I really hope it feels better soon because I'm so over this not lifting thing! Poor Stephen is doing all the housework on top his already crazy schedule but he doesn't complain. I have the most amazing husband!

Before.
After.
