Oregon Trip
playing with a great dane while on a walk















riding a bike with Uncle Ryan (I know he doesn't look thrilled, but when I took him a way it was the end of the world!!)














Playing piano with Grandpa














Playing with Ryan's friend














Walking in Uncle Ryan's shoes!



















Enjoying popcorn (he kept making the cutest face!!)














Trying to steal Ryan's gum (at the end he moves Ryan's head to try and get it!)


I love the way Rowan is laughing so hard he closes his eyes really tight!!!


We had fun and Rowan loved his Uncle Ryan!!!! He enjoyed Grandma and Grandpa too!

Sorry I am such a slacker. Things have been boring and crazy at the same time. We went to Utah at the beginning of August for Cory's sisters wedding. It was a fun time. We got to go camping with his family and go to Park City for our anniversary. In Park City we got a package that let us do the zip lines at the Olympic park and it was a blast!! We also got to walk around their Olympic museum they had set up. It was cool to see it all (especially cuz I was on my mission during them). Last week I went to Oregon to see my family. Cory is doing 2 classes now, so I am very bored in the evenings.
Here are the pics from our Utah trip. (Sorry they aren't in order, they are hard to download onto here)

So I have been thinking about this for a long while, and have decided to go private with my blog. So if you want to keep following email me your address (even if you think I have it.) Email me at jennissomewhere@gmail.com Thanks for understanding!

SMILES
So this week I have been looking through our pictures over the year. We are pathetic and have more pics of Rowan than of either Cory or me. And looking through them I noticed how many smiles I have from my little boy. So, this post is a collection of his smiles. (plus we haven't done anything exciting to warrant pics!)

More Rowan (sorry, Cory and I don't do very many exciting things!)

He wasn't sleeping well, so I though maybe he wanted a pillow (cuz he kept trying to sleep on his bear). We had this Ladybug pillow that Heather gave me for my birthday and figured, hey, why not? And Rowan loves it!! He now will also put his pacifier on it when he gets up in! (he only uses it for sleeping)
Rowan loves to "read". He is always bringing books to us. I just (literally) got a pic of him in the love sac "readng" a book!
The first video is Rowan giving himself shaken baby syndrome! j/k He has learned to shake his head "no", although he doesn't know that it means "no" he just enjoys doing it! And that at the end I got him to do a few of the signs he knows.
The next video is of Rowan "reading". you may have to turn the sound up really loud to hear his babbling, but it is really cute!
