Much Needed Update

If I don't update soon, I feel our "family journal" is going to be a thing of the past! Yikes! Some much needed recapping and highlights from last post:

Oct 2012:
Crewser had fun being an astronaut for Halloween. Our favorite "other" Baldwins came with us trick-or-treating!

Had a fun visit with Great Grandma and Grandpa Sparks while they were here in Utah

My brother, Elder Sparks, came home from his mission to Las Vegas/Reno, NV. It was so great to see that kid!




 Aunt Olivia
 Great Grandma and Grandpa Moss
 Grammy Sparks
Papa Sparks

November 2012:
Had a great Thanksgiving in Beaver, UT
ivy, crew, lennox, fiona, payton

December 2012:
Tommy and Cara got married in Las Vegas, NV. We, unfortunately were not able to make it, due to work schedules.  :( Love those two!



Grammy and Papa Sparks were able to come down and be with us for Christmas.  We went to Andrew and Whitney's house for Christmas morning. 





Crew turned 3! What a big boy. We had a small party with some of his cousins/friends on Dec 31.


January-March 2013
Winter. Crew goes to preschool a few times a week on the days Mom works at the hospital.

April 2013
Mom found out we were expecting baby number 2....and it's a girl!
                                      

 Spring/Summer 2013
Spent lots of time outside and of course swimming!


Crew went to a city bike rally for kids and he won a new "First Bike" he's a pro on it!




July 2013:
Went to Beaver, UT for the 24th of July. We had a blast at the Parade and at the foot races! It was great to be around family that we don't get to see that often.


Crew seriously is always surrounded by girls. I couldn't deny him from the nail-painting party with Whitney, Bridget, Payton, Fiona, and Bethany.

August 2013:
We took a trip to visit Grammy and Papa in Coeur d' Alene, ID. It was gorgeous! We spent time at the lake, and also went to the amusement park, Silverwood. We made Crew go on too many fast rides, I think he was traumatized.



 This is how I felt most of the trip.

Cute Payton and Crewser.

Went up to Thanksgiving Point with Whitney and the girls to see the farm animals and hitch a pony ride with the longest line ever!









September 2013:
Jess turns 33

Crew helped make the cake then we had a bunch of family show up for a party!

October 2013: 
We moved from Orem down to a small house in Provo. We are loving the backyard!



***Crew is going to Pre-school twice a week on the days Mom has to sleep from working.
