Hiking in the Wasatch Mountains


On Saturday we went hiking in the Wasatch mountains. We love to hike, mostly in the summer, but we decided we wouldn't let the snow bother us. We have a great time hiking although on most trips we get headaches from Skeet not listening to us. The minute we get to the hiking trails he begins crying in the car because he can't wait 2 seconds for us to get out and let him out through the back. Then when we finally do let him out and loose from his leash he peels out of the car and goes off running as fast as he can. Sometimes he gets really far and we call him to come back to where we are. He does of course, but he has never gotten in the habit of staying close to us, or should I say we didn't train him properly. We encounter alot of dogs on hikes, and so whenever we see dogs, we call him to come. Sometimes he listens and sometimes he doesn't. Regardless of skeets ADD, we have a great time.

The cutest baby contest on Regis and Kelly

Everyone cross your fingers. Melissa has submitted one of Harlow's pictures to the cutest baby contest they have on Regis and Kelly.

Harlow's homemade clothes


Melissa made us all matching pajamas for Christmas. Here is Eric and Harlow with their pajamas. Aren't they soooo cute!
Harlow's complete little outfit with hat
This pattern is super cute. Its nursery rhymes in pastel colors

This is amazing, so I just had to blog about it. Harlow's welly's (grandma) makes her the most amazing clothes. All these clothes featured in these photographs have been made by Melissa. She makes Harlow the cutest outfits. A big reason as to why I wanted a sewing machine was so I could learn how to make hats, and pants, and shirts.

Sledding in Sugarhouse Park



We had so much fun taking Harlow sledding. At first she didn't really know what to think. I think part of it was that she was cold. Eric took her down the first run, and because there was fresh snow on the ground, as they were going down, they got hit with fresh powdered snow right in the face. We were both so surprised because she didn't even cry! She is a tough little baby! There was a family with 3 girls sledding right next to us. As the dad went down with one of his daughters, the same thing happened to them, and the 4 year old little girl started crying immediately. Harlow continues to amaze us with her spirit and character. She is very tough and when she falls, she gets right back up and doesn't even cry. She definately didn't get that from me, Im a big baby.
