April 2015

Dax is such a happy child. He loves to eat, swing, and take baths.

 

Grandma McKnight invited the boys over to dye eggs for Easter. They loved all the fun colors, but it's really hard for them to wait patiently while the eggs sit in the cups and absorb the colors.

Aunt Margo invited us to her friend's house for an Easter egg hunt. It was a beautiful home with an awesome back yard. The kids loved searching for all the eggs with their cousins.

The had a huge tire swing in the back yard for the kids and they loved to push each other and ride on it. Just look at the joy on Tyson's face.

These are a few of the grandkids on the McKnight side. I was excited that my children actually sat for the pictures. I think it was the first time that it wasn't my kids crying or trying to run away during a picture.

We love going downtown and this month was the perfect time to see all the flowers at Temple Square. Of course you can't just go to temple square you have to play at the dino place at city creek too...and have some McDonalds. 

This pictures are my absolute favorite. They boys were excited to show off their super hero poses in front of the temple. 

We love going to the trampoline park near us, Get Air. If we go in the afternoon we pretty much have the place to ourselves. Oak loves doing the obstacle course, and Ty loves playing in the foam pits. Dax isn't quite old enough for anything but sitting.

I got to go on a roadtrip up to Jackson Wyoming to play volleyball, and on our way up we passed these cool silos so I had to stop and grab a picture. Pretty sweet, huh?

And of course we had to get our picture under the famous antler arches in downtown Jackson. 

The tournament was fun and it was great to get away. We took third place and found out that not everyone does things the same way as we do in Salt Lake. Just the way they ran the tournament and stuff, now that I help run Murray's volleyball leagues and tournaments, it's hard to not want to fix everything or not wonder why they are doing things a certain way. But like I said it was fun, and I loved getting out for the weekend.

That same weekend was Amber's homecoming so we headed up to Trenton on Sunday. The boys always have fun up there on the farm. Dax loved snuggling with cousin Brigham and Ty loved playing with cousins outside.

It's not often that we get this much snow in April, so I had to document it. Tyson and Oakley couldn't stay inside with that much snow. So we bundled them up and sent them out. They love playing in the snow.

Once again we are at Scheels with friends, the Deans and Westenkows. We love seeing the fish and all the fun photo places around the store.

Dax is 9 Months old. He is crawling all over and such a smiley baby. He puts everything in his mouth and loves having his brothers around.

Oakley and his best friend Max got to play on a soccer team together. They had tons of fun and they were both really good at scoring goals. I think they are getting the hang of this sport stuff.

 

 

 

 

 

This is probably the first time and the last time that the three boys will take a bath together. It was nice having Oak in there to hold Dax so he didn't tip over, but that made it really full for sure.

They are all getting so big. Dax loves to stand any chance he can get, and he can hold his bottle all by himself now, YAY! He loves yogurt bites and one day I found a few on his face that he was saving for later.

Dax got this toy for Christmas but he hasn't really been big enough to enjoy it, until today. He sat on it and pushed the buttons and loved it.

Tyson got a balance bike for Christmas and now that the weather is nice he loves to ride it around the block. He isn't very fast yet, but that's probably good. He also loves to ride his blue scooter. Blue is for sure his favorite color and that makes it even more awesome of a scooter.

We had the opportunity to go to Thanksgiving Point Tulip Festival with our friend Nicole and Katy. The flowers were beautiful there and it's so fun to walk around and see all the maze-like paths.

This is Dax during Oakley's soccer games. He loves being the ball boy.

Dad as the dead horse.

I didn't eat any chocolate.

The boys love dressing up in their super hero costumes. I'm glad I found so many on sale the day after Halloween.

Poor Dax. Some day you'll be outside with your brothers. Not yet, though.

Another Paint night in the books. This is one of my favorite ones so far.

Another trip to Get Air. This time with friends. 

These two were so funny. They just knelt there and danced/bounced to the music. It was hilarious.

Oakley's team pictures with his soccer team. This was a fun team.
