March Madness!

I have never been a big basketball fan, but I figure I have a son now, so I need to bone up on all sports. Not to mention filling out and tracking my bracket has brought out a fun competitive side in me (I'm currently second place in my office pool!). Spencer really seems to enjoy watching basketball at home with daddy so we thought we'd try out a Stampede game. Thanks to The Idaho Foodbank and AgriBeef we were lucky enough to score some suite tickets.

It was a little loud in the arena and he was much happier hanging out in the suite...just like his mamma!

Back on the home front, we have been busy loading up the ipad with all sorts of apps for Spencer to play with. It's almost kinda sad...there are even apps that will read to your kids for you. Spence is a big fan of the "L" Lightbulb in the alphabet app and trying to blow bubbles in the koi pond.
We go pants free at home a lot these days. For some reason lately he just fights me to put the pants on, so I pick my battles.

3.13.11

We had a nice visit from Nana and Poppy this weekend. They hadn't seen the little nugget since New Years (skyping just doesn't count) so he had lots of fun showing off all of his new tricks, including impressing them with his ipad skills. It just kills me that BABIES know how to use ipads. Crazy. ANYWAY, as is tradition when the Stonehocker's are here, we went to The Cheesecake Factory, where Spencer discovered his new favorite thing in the world: brown bread.

Happy grandparents.

Another trip to the park for swings...Rocco Man met us too!

Trip to the Park

We are not really a cold weather family. We don't really enjoy any snow related activities because we hate being cold. Even Fergie doesn't like to go outside when the weather is bad. So, we've been cooped up for a while, and our trip to Vegas gave us a taste of that sunshine we love so much. Sunday I couldn't take it anymore and we bundled up for a trip to the park. I can't say it was Spencer's first trip, because we went this summer and fall, but of course, he was really too little to get in to it. This time was a different story and he had so much fun! This picture cracks me up to no end...his first time on a slide and he's holding on to his hat. I mean seriously, how hilarious and cute is that?
Spencer had a great time on the swings. I love that we are within walking distance to this great park...I see many, many visits in our future.
