Last week we bought Claire a Jumperoo. She loves it! And I just had to post this video of our cute kids.

Here are a few pictures of things we’ve been doing since moving back to Utah.

Link has been spending lots of time in our “backyard.” Though it’s not fenced in, we’re so happy to have a little grass and playground behind us. It sure beats being in a second floor apartment!

There’s a saying in Utah that goes something like, “If you don’t like the weather now, just wait 30 minutes.” That’s for sure. Link experienced playing in real snow for the first time just three days after we spent the afternoon at the pool!

On the 2nd, we celebrated Link’s and Daddy’s birthday. I attempted to make a tractor cake, but this was a day I was having what we found out later was false labor, so just the fact that it somewhat resembled a tractor was a victory. Tractors and big trucks are Link’s new thing lately. Herriman is a pretty rural area, so we see them around frequently. I’m not sure if it’s because he’s had a little cold or because he turned two, but he has been a handful lately! The following picture says a lot.

After we gave him a popsicle he was a little happier.

We always look forward to the weekend when Daddy can spend more time with us. Yesterday we went on a trip to the Kennecott Copper Mine that’s about 15 minutes away from us. It was really incredible to see. And of course, Link wouldn’t stop talking about the BIG trucks and BIG tractors!

I really didn’t want to post this picture in all my huge glory. Just remember I’m at the bitter end people!

Recently our Disneyland passes expired. Link and I especially enjoyed them. We went about once a month. Yes, we probably should’ve taken advantage of them more. The funny thing about Disneyland is that it grows on you! The more you go, the more you love it! I couldn’t believe how sad I was when I took Link for what was, hopefully, the last time. I say hopefully, because weren’t planning on being in California long enough to renew our passes. But that is another story entirely, *sigh*.

Here are a few pics of our last trip. I didn’t get much variety, and if I hadn’t told you, you probably wouldn’t have any idea where these were taken. As it turns out, it’s hard to take pictures of a toddler you’re too busy chasing.

Here are my failed attempts at getting a good picture of Link and I together. Oh, and just so you know, Link really has a good time when we go, though you’d never guess from the pictures!

Posing in a car from Mr Toad’s Wild Ride. He’d want to crawl up inside this car every trip. It was great. He loved it, and the best part was, we didn’t have to wait in line!

Boat rides are Link’s favorite. And if you didn’t realize, Disneyland has a lot of them. When we talk about Disneyland, he always mentions the bo (boats) and the wadden (water).

Here he is on Small World—his favorite.

Coming off Small World, being all independent with his buddy Benji.

I bought Link a pair of Mickey ears with some left-over birthday gift card money. I should have removed the price tag before photographing him wearing them.

Oh how I love my little buddy! We really have such a great time together!

Link and I went to California Adventure with Hope and her kids this morning. We all piled in my car because her’s wouldn’t start. On the drive there, we were the victims of a road rage scene. A driver of a VW bug raced around us, after he failed to merge correctly, and gave us the finger! Not two seconds after he flashed his finger, he got a flat tire! I couldn’t believe it. I really wanted to laugh and say “that’s what you get sucker!” But my good Christian friend reminded me it’s not good to gloat. And of course, she was right (:
