Hyrum Meets the Chipmunks!

Today I put on the Chipmunk movie while cleaning the house and doing other things. I had no idea Hyrum would LOVE it as much as he did! I just had to take a video clip of him laughing at the movie.

I haven't heard him laugh this hard pretty much ever.. I rewinded the same scene twice and got the same reaction every time!



He almost sounds like he is crying, but I can assure you he is laughing at the Chipmunks.

Meeting Santa

Hyrum met Santa for the very first time this year... As you can see, it didn't go over too well.!!
He was terrified of him. But crying pictures are still cute and fun to look at!

After Mo Simon took a round of pictures, we waited around for about an hour for him to calm down. After Jake and Ava got there we decided to try and see if he would be better at it if he has his buddy Jake sitting next to him..

Needless to say.... It didn't work! :)

Come out Already!

Sunday night Jessica, Ryan and (Sprout) came over for dinner and a game. Before putting Hyrum in bed for the night he decided to teach a class on how to get sprout to come out of Jessicas shirt.

First, he examined the situation.

Second, he sat on sprout to make him feel cramped and uncomfortable to make him WANT to get out of there in a hurry.

Third.., when that failed, he decided to try and coach him out. "Swim towared the tunnel and head for the light.!!"

All of the coaching exhausted him, so he gave up and went to bed..

Our First Tree

This weekend we went and cut down our very first family Christmas tree. I've never gone to pick out a real tree before, and have never cut one down before either.

It was fun, but VERY COLD. by the time we found the tree we wanted my hands wer numb. Hyrums little nose was red but he didn't seem to be bothered by the cold. He was having to much fun finding rocks.

this one was going to be posted as "possible tree" but after looking around and the other trees close by I decided that this is THE TREE. plus I didn't want to look at ever tree on the farm, I was freezing and ready to go.

yes.. my macho man of a husband decided to carry Hyrum AND the tree.

New Toy

A few weeks ago we were cleaning things out, putting things in storage and throwing things away and or taking it to the DI. One of the things we were going to get rid of is this baby bathtub.

I'm not a fan of them, I prefer to lay them in the tub on one of those sponges. Any way, this bathtub has become one of Hyrums new favorite things to play with.. He brings his toys close by and climbs in, chills in it and plays with his toys.
