Remington

Boyd and Remy are starting to become friends. By friends I mean that Boyd has started to notice she is around and likes to watch her. Sometimes when I need just a minute I will make Remy sit right in front of Boyd and stay there. Remy will be interested in what I'm doing, but obediently waits and Boyd will just watch Remy. It's great! 

Remy has taken a liking to Boyd, or maybe just his fingers, toes, and toys. It's pretty funny because you can tell that Boyd doesn't really like being licked. Fortunately, we've taught Remy "all done" and she knows it's time to stop. I do feel a bit bad for Remy when it comes to the toys. Before we had Boyd, all the toys in the house were Remy's and her favorite have to be stuffed animals. Boyd has a ton of stuffed animals, some of which even make noise. It drives Remy crazy that she can't have them. But because she is a good dog, she just sits and watches Boyd play with them, all the while wishing she could play too (or at least I imagine that's what she's thinking). =) It will be so fun when they can play together! I can't wait!

The picture above is pretty funny. A couple days before I took a more cuddly picture of Remy and Boyd and wanted to post it on here. However, Phil told me he didn't like the outfit Boyd was wearing and that we should just take another picture. Well, it didn't turn out looking like Boyd and Remy are friends in it, but oh well. At least Boyd's not wearing a lame outfit, right?

Boyd continues to LOVE his jumper! He really has gotten the hang of jumping and spins around like crazy too!

Today I came into the living room and found this. It made me laugh. It's like the wicked witch of the west, from the Wizard of Oz, when the house fell on her at the end. 

This is Remy on the other side of the curtain. She loves to soak up the sun at every chance she gets. So if it's sunny outside, this is where you'll find her.

I can't get enough of those Boyd pictures. He is so darn cute. I love that he loves the jumper--what a blessing for all!

And I think Remi has the right idea about napping! You have to soak in that warm sun--especially in the middle of winter!

We love and miss you guys tons. I've been thinking about you as I just barely got Sun Valley pics posted...

This is so cute! I love it. How fun that they are becoming more aware of eachother. And I love the wicked witch of the west picture. I can't believe you and Phil are coming up on 4 years!(referring to your comment on my blog). And as far as my pregnancy goes...it actually hasn't been too terribly slow for me. But I won't speak to soon because I'm just starting in on my last three months here...haha! I love you and miss you so much! I'll see you in a month when I come up to Utah! Yay! Keep posting pictures!

i keep trying to come up with a way to sneak a dog home and con jonathan into letting me keep it. however, he keeps saying ridiculous things like, "the landlord won't let us have a dog here," or "we don't have room," etc.

melinda and i can't get over how much we think boyd looks like you. he's a cute kid:)

I can't believe I didn't see the post until today, busy I guess:) I love the pics, thanks for posting them, can't wait to see you guys again! Has Phil come out of mourning the Utah to Portland loss from Saturday night? It was a great game to be at, big win, so no elevated blood pressure:)

The funniest part of the game came during one of the timeouts. The camera on the big screen showed a big heart, with Kiss Me underneath and random couples would see themselves, smile and kiss! Then there was a couple who after the kiss, the guy dropped to a knee and took out the ring box, it was cute. Then the heart landed on two Utah Jazz players sitting next to eachother on the bench, one of them ducked away and the other one leaned over and gave him a peck. They got a loud round of applause:) Good sports on a night I am sure they couldn't wait to get off the court and out of dodge, so still Utah, 2 to 1....

Phil would want you to take another picture of Boyd if he wasn't wearing a cute outfit. I sometimes think Phil is a little more "metro" than he would like to let on. :) I LOVE the picture of Boyd and Remy. I'm so glad they're starting to be friends. Peyton thinks Tink is the most hilarious thing on the planet- it's great having someone to entertain the baby when you need a minute. What good big sisters!! Also, I laughed so hard at the Wizard of Oz picture. That's exactly what it looks like! Tink and Remy must really be related- Tink does almost the same thing on a daily basis. We miss you guys!!
