New years in St. George

We headed to St. George for New years.  We enjoyed family, warmer weather, shopping, pickle ball, swimming and bunco.

 Swimming time!  Hallee loves loves loves water; she will keep swimming even if she is cold.

 Amon loves mac a lot.  Poor Amon has no fat on him; he starts shivering after about 5 minutes, then he joined his mommy in the hot tub.

 Pile up. Hallee, Dallin and Ben enjoying themselves.

 The crew in the hot tub

 My boy is so big, he now wants to feed himself without any help. Ya he usually ends up making a mess.

Finally a family photo with everyone!

 Christmas Eve.

 Opening christmas presents!

Christmas morning! Notice Amon eating the rapping paper.   

Hallee gets so excited its contagious.  Its make Ben and I more excited.  Amon didn't fully understand what was happening, he didn't really want to rip open presents,  Hallee gladly helped him.

Treasure hunt!  Isn't Ben such a wonderful artist.  I love it!

Christmas Parties 2012

Peck Christmas Party

We enjoyed: family, food, pies, singing, basketball, sliding, and Santa!

 Some of the Peck Crew the rest of the crew are playing basketball and prepping dinner.

Instant Entertainment - Rob made a slide out of a table to entertain the little ones.

Dinner time

 Amon being a big boy by feeding himself pie.

 Amon wasn't sure what to think of santa.  I think he recognized him from the santa parade.  He wanted to be close to him.  But not to close.

Yup this is to close.

 Hallee's turn with santa

 Enjoying family time

Thanksgiving Fun 2012

This year with the Peck family we stayed in Lehi.  Which we haven't done in well forever.  Kenzie and Shea's baby was due the day after thanksgiving so we had thanksgiving at the Peck house.  

 Grandkids making cookies with Grandma Deb.  Amon was snoozing so he missed out on some cookie fun.

The boy played football earlier that morning. While I attempted to make grandmas Hadfield home made rolls.  After the yummy meal we were getting our game on; playing bang.

Amon 18 month & Hallee 5 year old - check up

Amon is 18 months! I can't believe how time flies.  My baby isn't a baby anymore.   Hallee also needed to get her well visit and flu shot so we combined them.  Poor Hallee I promised her she was getting one shot.  But when we got there the doctor recommended getting her kindergarten shots since we were already at the office.  So Hallee got 4 shots and Amon who I thought was getting 4 shots only had to get two.  

AMON stats at 18 months:

Amon trying out daddy's new basketball shoes, and playing with mommy's phone.  

Amon at 18 months: loves to do whatever Hallee is doing(which is trouble).  Amon loves to run, jump, dance, climb, hid, play hid'n seek, books, kick & throw balls, playing on slides, and loves to help mommy: sweep, vacuum, mop and do laundry.  

Still not talking much yet, Amon says: what & utt oh.  Occasionally Amon, will say: ma ma & da da. 

Amon signs: milk, all done, more, again, thirsty, eat, help, bear, thank you. 

HALLEE stats at 5 years: 

After Hallee's shots I told her I would get her a treat; that she could pick anything she wanted.  Hallee is defiantly my girl: she said she wanted to go to Lehi bakery and pick out doughnuts.  But me being a mommy said we had to eat dinner first before we went to the bakery since it was 5 o'clock.  I told her to pick a restruant.  Halee is defiantly my girl again: she responds that she wants to go to Texas Roadhouse.  Hearing her say that made my day.  Most kids would say McDoneld's or some place with toys, not my girl.  We Beck girls love our doughnuts and steak and ribs!

I told Hallee to go upstairs and get dress that we were going shopping.  She came down dressed like this?  Such a silly girl, always makes me laugh.  Hallee loves to laugh, be the center of attention, be silly, play pretend, have friends over, play with Amon, help mommy bake, sweep, vacuum, do dishes, play in water, rider her bike, play outside, run around, talk, sing, go shopping, and visit grandparents.

Oh how I love my precious children, they certainly keep me entertained!
