A good day...

This morning my adorable little guy woke up and 6:15am. Elena decided since today was her birthday that she wanted to skip our 6:30 walk and sleep in. Well I thought that was a fabulous idea and wanted to do the same. So when preston woke up i gave him some milk, changed his diaper and layed him back down...we slept another 2 hours!!! YAY! And when he woke up he just stayed in his crib happily playing with his feet and swinging his arms around. When i opened the door to go and get him he jumped up as fast as he could with the BIGGEST grin on his face, laughing and jumping around. Boy was he SOO excited to get up! It was the cutest thing i have ever seen. I thought to myself...today is really going to be a GOOD DAY.


Notice Preston is in his big boy seat!! He absolutely LOVES it! I bought it a couple of days ago and i couldnt wait to switch his infant seat out. I thought id be a little sad cause my goodness this boy is growing up too fast but the look on his face when he realized he can now see mommy and see out the window was priceless. Not to mention i love it as well. I hate not seeing him and what hes doing...we bought a little mirror so we could see him but he was getting big enough to reach it and tear it down so it was useless.


Well this morning we drove out to saguaro lake to look around for good picture spots. We were supposed to take our family pics last saturday but it got switched to this saturday, so i had more time to drive out and take a look around. We drove with our windows down and wind blowing on our faces...preston had a huge smile :). We also drove by toys r us...i bought this car seat there and a the next day i found a 20 % off coupon so i took my reciept and the coupon and they refunded me some money! YAY! I ended up saving 25.00 on the seat...i was excited!


Okay so heres a picture of beautiful lake saguaro. I really wanted to take our pictures here because we are lake people...especially spencer...he would live on the lake and wakeboard everyday if he could. So i thought taking a picture at the lake would just fit our family. BUT we are taking our pictures on a saturday morning and i think the lake will be really busy with boaters and i dont want a bunch of boats in the backround. But arent those mountains to die for? Seriously so pretty.


Or I was thinking we could take them down the road from the lake a bit at the river. The trees there are green and big and i think they are really cool looking...we could get closer to the water so we could have that in our shots and the river is still pretty cold so i dont think alot of people will be there. I honestly think they would both turn out really good but i just cant decide which one...So if i could have your guys opinion on which one would help out a TON! So please let me know what you think! Thanks!

Good question...i'm torn. I love the first picture with the mountains but I agree that boats in the background would ruin it. I guess it all depends on how busy it is Saturday...
