Four Years Baby!

We celebrated our four year anniversary this weekend:) Ruger spent a night at Grandma Fraughton's and then a night at Grandma Wiggins:) Thank you so much grandmas your amazing!!!

1. Twilight Movie
2. Jack and Jill's  Bowling
3. Texas Roadhouse
4. Cold Stone

Twilight was awesome:) We always end up watching them on our anniversary or when we end up celebrating it because they come out on our anniversary. So we will see what next year brings though I'm sure Clayton will be super bummed we don't get to see one next year;) Jack and Jill's was fun as always we played two games and then played a few arcade games. Its a good thing I don't gamble because its so  hard to quit arcade games. Texas Roadhouse was ok Clayton's a huge fan but me I can do with out though I need get some pretty amazing shrimp:) Cold  stone was good of course but honestly I miss MAGGIE MOO'S!!! Then we went home and just enjoyed our night.

The next morning we slept in and then went  to teach Clayton's primary class. I've missed them (I was his co teacher until I had Ruger). After that we went to  pick Ruger up and take him to Grandma Wiggins. Then Clayton and I took a drive. We first we up AF canyon. It was BEAUTIFUL!! The snow was starting to move down the mountain in a fog. We saw Big horn sheep climbing down the mountain it was so fun!! Then we went out to Utah lake which was also beautiful.

















Then came home and spent the rest of the day and night together. In the morning we went to pick Ruger up he was all smiles when he saw us!!LOVED IT!!

All in all it was a awesome weekend. Its been a great four years here's to another four more :) (well actually all eternity but who's counting:)

halLoWeeN 2012

This Halloween was a first! It was more exciting because  I got to dress up Ruger:) I'm so excited for the holidays because KIDS in my case KID makes everything more exciting!! This Halloween was so different because My parents were in Chicago.so I had my four youngest siblings. Our family of three jump to seven. It was actually pretty fun. We went to my family's trunk or treat and then to my aunts for chill.













 I know it looks like Ruger is pushing Jamie but that's not the case;)



Dear Ruger (4 months)

Dear Ruger,


Right now your sleeping but with your eyes half open. You sleep often like this and will often look at whoever is holding you and smile then close your eyes again. It's like even though your sleeping you still like to keep tabs on us;)

You started sleeping sleeping through the night! ITS AMAZING!!!! You  normally sleep 9:30 to 5:00 eat and then back to bed till 8:00. You however started sleeping in your car seat (Grandma Fraughton suggested it Hallelujah!) Dad thinks we should move you to your bed but I'm not ready or willing yet...I like my sleep:)

You tried Rice Cereal this month you didn't like it. We are steal trying though and I have a feeling that when I can add flavors to it you will LOVE IT. You always watch us while we eat. Plus if we have a Pepsi can your eyes are locked on it. I think its because its shinny but your father believes its because your a Fraughton. ;)









It was your first Halloween this month and you were a Giraffe. The cutest in the world might I add. You also tired your first anything besides whats meant for you! I gave you the tiniest piece of cotton candy you loved it until it was gone which was like 2 seconds. Daddy wasn't very happy with me at all!! :)




Bath Time is now one of my favorites now. You LOVE it so much and stare at us with such joy in your eyes I LOVE IT!!!

Today we went outside and swung in a hammock. The air was crisp and leaves were falling it was wonderful. I wish I could  just bottle that moment up and re visit it whenever I wanted, because it was perfect.

You Finally got sucking your thumb down. You used to put multiple fingers in your month because you couldn't get just your thumb to stick out.

You Laugh a lot but one minute the thing that makes you laugh can make you cry. Were still figuring that out.

My all time favorite "NEW" thing you do is  reach out and touch my face. Normally this happens while you fall asleep. Plus when your really tired to talk your self to sleep. LOVE IT!!!

Last  night you were in the bath, I walked out to get clothes and a diaper (Daddy was watching you). On the way back to the bath I heard you cooing and daddy talking to you. It warmed my heart and made it swell with Joy. These are the moment I'll remember and cherish always. I love you Ruger more and more everyday.

ADD INS (THINGS THAT H APPEND AFTER I WROTE THIS, that should be included in your 4 month post)

Your tried banana's for the first time! YOU LOVED THEM!!!! Plus you tired apple juice in rice cereal not your favorite but you still wanted to eat it;) YOUR FAVORITE is sweet potatoes! You got so mad last night when I stopped feeding you.

You also met your cousin Zoey this month she was born on the 12th. She is adorable but I don't think you really care yet.

You are starting to get jealous when someone holds another baby. For example uncle Derrick was holding Bentlee and your face was priceless! When Derrick did hold you, you literally gave him the cold shoulder and wouldn't look him in the eye.

Last but not least you saw snow for the first time!! You were in awe and kept bumping your  head on the window because you kept trying to get closer. Your first reaction was to stick your  tongue out Ruger style.

We had your 4 month check up today and it was way good! Dr. Wilcox was so impressed with you! He said you were the most sociable 4 month old he has ever seen :) Your now 15.8 lbs. and 24 inches tall! Your a little short but that's ok:) He said you can eat whatever now as long as its mushed. Daddy's super excited about that! Also you LOVE the fish tank at the office so I'm thinking we might get you one for Christmas but we will see!!

Dear Ruger (3 Months)


Dear Ruger,

First of all your adorable! We love you so much! This last month was kinda big for you. You went on your first airplane ride, and out of state! We went  to Michigan but more on that next post;) on top of airplane and  the trip you were sick,tons and tons of puke though this seems to be over THANK GOODNESS!!

You've started to laugh and its adorable  We LOVE IT!! you still talk like crazy! We love the babbles. You also found your hand this month and now instead of just sucking your fingers you also stare and them and try to get them to do what you want like putting your binkie back  in your mouth which you haven't figured out yet. So you get really mad until I help you.



You actually love your baths now!!Such a relief. I actually wanting to be done before you, you would stay till the water got cold if I would let you, but I don't. You squeal and laugh and kick like crazy. Every so often you splash water on your face and give us the look of WHY DID WE SPLASH YOU? It was all you little man.

You LOVE your stuffed sock monkey. We call him Socks. Get it? Socks the Sock Monkey? You cuddle him and love him here proof with your crazy hes my monkey back off look.



You love balancing with Daddy you get so excited and squeal. When Dad's stops you lock your legs up and try to do it your self. :)
