Wow I am a total blog slacker! I swear the days go by so fast. I keep saying today is the day I will blog and then all of the sudden it is 1 am and I need to go to bed. Well here is our Fall in a nutshell.
Family Night at the Pumpkin Patch
Okay this is a huge picture overload! We had a super crazy summer and these are a whole bunch of pictures I never got around to posting. It went by so fast and Lexi changed from baby to a hyper little girl.
We are going to miss going up to the canyon and wading our feet in the waterfalls.
We are going to miss days at the pool, and water parks.
We are going to miss Family Home Evening at the park.
We are going to miss playing on our lush grass in our yard... Oh I mean the black top.
We are going to miss all the fun carnivals through out the state of Utah.
We took a little weekend trip to Michigan over Labor Day. We love when we get to go there, we sleep in, eat non stop and just relax. Brian's dad own an aviation paint shop and here are some of the planes that he has painted.

This is us just hanging out at the house.
Lexi on Grandma's four wheeler.
And the real reason we came: Brian's Ten Year High School Reunion. 
I am conflicting over what I want Lexi to be this year for Halloween. This could be my last year where she won't really care, and will give me no input. I can't decide if I want her to be cute and cuddely, or a darling diva. These are a few of the costumes I have found and I just want some opinons about them.

Here are some pictures of our fabulous cruise!! We had such a good time. It was entire week with no babies. I love my little Lexi but having a nice long break sure felt good. We went to the Caribbean and visited Jamiaca, Grand Caymen, and Key West.
Every night we got our groove on. We would dance until 2 or 3 in the morning.
I have to say I get better and better at karaoke everytime I get up there.
Dancing the night away!!!I never thought this day would come! The last year has been a pretty exciting one. Looking back it all went so fast, but when Lexi was so tiny I thought she would be that way forever. Now she is turning into a little girl. We had a mermaid party for her, and she loved every second of it! Thank you so much to everyone that came. It really meant so much to me and Lexi. I couldn't have put this party together without my mom and sister Jami. I was a wreck, while they practically did everything. I love you guys you are the best!!!!
With her Grandma King
Grandma and Grandpa Hendry
I love Lake Powell!!! This year we had a much smaller group than last year, it was sort of nice to not have tons and tons of people. There was a little more room to move around and a lot more time to spend with each person. But we did miss the rest of our family. Lexi had a blast she loved crawling all over Grandpa's boat and playing with all her fun cousins.
I turned 25 on June 6 and I have to say that I love getting older!!! I know I am not really "old" yet, but I feel that women just get better with age. I hope I still think this when I am having my 80th birthday. It was such a fabulous day, my mom and Mike threw me a fun swim/BBQ at their house. The food was of course amazing with Michael on the grill, but the company was even better!
Our annual girls trip to Vegas has to be one of my favorite time of the entire year. This trip is dedicate to everything GIRL! Shopping, laying out, dancing, sleeping in and just being pampered! My mom is the best. She loves to have fun and makes the whole vacation so memorable. Here is pretty much a picture documentary of everything we did on our last trip their. 
SHOES!!! We probably spent 3 hours trying on every shoe in Nordstrom. We made a huge mess and loved every minute of it.
In front of the pool. If you have never stayed at the Palazzo, I highly recommend it. It is such a beautiful hotel.
Shopping and eating some yummy frozen yogurt.
Me and Jami before we headed out to the club. Um... what is so great about clubbing? All I saw was perverts, sluts, and drunks. And they didn't even play very good music. Club Tao really is so overrated!!! People were lined up for hours outside trying to get in, and I just can't understand why. (We didn't have to wait in line or pay)
Every morning we had room service for breakfast. It is the best thing to just wake up, lay in bed and have someone serve you!!!
I have this weird habit of taking a picture of myself in the mirror. I just can't trust the mirror by itself. I need double proof that I look okay. I know I am weird.
This is our room after about two days. When on vacation I am not about to clean.
We went and saw CHER. She was awesome. I was surprised by how many songs I knew of hers.
A few weeks ago was my sweet hubby's Birthday! We went to our favorite Mexican restaurant Pasterero. If you live any where close to Provo you have to come to this place. They are the sweetest people and have some of the best Mexican food I have ever had. It is very authentic, ao if you don't like authentic then you probably won't like it. 
This is Brian with on of the workers. They gave everyone that came with us free dessert. There were at least 12 people in our group and each dessert cost about $3. They are so sweet!
The yummy dessert!
Lexi loved it too, she was all giggles and smiles the whole time.
My sweet Lexi Girl is getting so big. I do have to say that she just gets more and more fun, I am glad to be out of the new tiny baby stage (it is just too stressful)!!! She is so full of life and energy these days, and I can't get enough of her. Her favorite things these days are: getting chased by mom and dad, casting spells on people (if you are with her for more than a few minutes you will understand), head banging (whenever music comes on she throws her head back and forth extremely hard), eating (she eats more than I do), and steeling toys from other babies!!! She is definitely fiesty and knows what she wants. 
The last few mornings I have woken up to fun little surprises from my sweet baby girl. On Wednesday Lexi woke up around 7:15 as usual, so I went into nurse her and put her back down for another hour. Well the nursing goes as expected, as I am walking out of her I hear a gagging noise when I turn back to see what happened I see Lexi and her bed swimming in breast milk. So of course I go get her put her in the bath, change the sheet (cribs sheets are the worst to change), and get an early start to my day. Then on Thursday morning Lexi wakes up at 7:15, as I am walking into her room I decide that I will nurse her thinking yesterday wouldn't repeat itself. Well I was wrong! Lexi didn't throw-up right away, she went back to sleep for about 20 minutes and when I went into to get her she had puked chunks all over the herself and the bed. So today I decide I am not going to nurse her I will just get her out of bed and give her breakfast. Only I didn't know the extra special surprise I was going to get. When I walked in Lexi was standing up with diarrhea soaking through her pj's and throw-up chunks in her blankets, stuck to the bumper, and in her hair. When I go to put her in the tub, I unzip her pj's and there is diarrhea filled to the brim of each leg and squished in the feat part. So for the third day in a row I had to throw Lexi into the bath, and wash her sheets. I hope tomorrow my morning surprise is a clean baby with no puke or poo!
Today some 0f our best friends moved away:( I am so sad about this. They were some of the funnest friends we have ever had. We did everything with them, they were like our second family. Lee and Sarah were the kind of friends you don't find very often, we just clicked perfectly with them. Here are some pictures of our final days together.
Sunday at the park. Whenever the weather was warm we would have picnics in the park.
Sweet little Casey boy walking aimlessly around the park with his Doritos bag.
Baby Lexi thinking she is going to get a yummy treat if she is really sweet.
Since we have all lived in Provo for more the 5 years and never hiked the "Y" we thought we should before they left.
I am going to miss them so much!!!! Hopefully someday in the future we will be neighbors again!
Wow it has been a while since I posted, and that is because of my AWESOME computer!!! It only works like every ten days. So since it is working right now I need to get a lot of posts in. Well I am not sure how many of you out there know how big of a nerd I am. This first picture is of my 1000 piece puzzle that I finished in just a few days. Doing puzzles while listening to books on tape is one of my favorite things to do- I know it is really nerdy. Oh and during this puzzle I mostly jammed out to David Archuleta!!!
If you look really closely you can see that I am missing ONE piece! Wow that really annoyed me!
This is sweet Lexi on Easter Sunday. Unfortunately she was sick, so she didn't get to go to church and show off her dress, and it was very rainy in Denver so she did get to wear is outside either.
Lexi in her Easter jammies opening her basket.
A typical Monday night at the King household. All of our friends come over and we put the kids to bed eat yummy food and watch either The Bachelor or Dancing with the Stars. Sadly 3 out of the 6 couples we hang out with are moving, not just for the summer but FOREVER:(
The boys doing what they do best-stare at the T.V.
Lexi opening her first Easter basket a week before Easter.
Our beautiful Easter table!
Friday night a bunch of my girlfriends and I went to the David Archuleta concert. And can I say how AMAZING he is? I mean WOW! I am a 24 year old married women with a child and have a small crush on an 18 year old! Oops! Of course I forgot my camera, but my friends did take some pics and promised me some.
Don't you just LOVE the warm weather?!?! Well me and Lex have been taking full advantage of it. We have been going on walks and to practically every park in Utah County. She loves the swings and just rolling around in the grass. 
Lexi and Cohen sharing the swing. They took turns resting their head on each other. It was soooo cute!
We were so lucky to have Grandma and Grandpa King come visit us last week. Lexi just loves them so much. Unfortunately, I didn't get very many pictures. But here is one of Lex and her grandpa- two peas in a pod!
And one of her and her Grandma!
Lexi is starting to become independent. She can finally play by herself! It is so nice that I can get stuff done around the house while she is awake!
I have got a serious case of the Winter Blues, and need a beach vacay ASAP!
Let Me Shop, Let Me Shop, Let Me Shop
I also need a HUGE Shopping Spree. I look in my closet everyday hoping there will magically be something new to wear, and Spring is my favorite time to buy clothes. Unfortunately I don't see either of these in my near future.
I am so glad that yesterday is over! I swear from the moment I woke up nothing went my way. First of all Lexi woke up extra early and with a cranky additude. She wanted me to hold her and would scream if I put her down. Well I needed to get ready so while I showered she bawled and while I was doing my hair. Finally it was time for a nap. During Lexi's nap I needed to get dressed, but you know when you try on everything in your closet and everything makes you look like ultra fat, or extremely out of style? I just couldn't find an outfit that looked good, and I keep searching hoping that a new wardrobe was going to miraculaously just appear from out of nowhere. I finally decided on a dreadful outfit and went into the kitchen and to my surprise everydish and pan we own was spread out across the entire counter. Our lovely dish washer is broken so my husband decided to unload all of the dirty dishes onto the counter in pursuit of finding a clean one. There were about 6 dirty pots in the sink as well. So I thought I might as well just hand wash all of these, of course I come to find out that we are out of liquid dish soap. Now I am left with this disgusting kitchen. Then my sweet baby Lexi decides to wake up after a 45 minute nap, when she usually takes a 3 hour nap. I thought well this is fine I really wanted to go to the library and get the next book in my series, so I get all packed up and head to the library. And of course it is CLOSED. I was seriously so sad, I was so looking forward to going to the library. Well I needed to go to the grocery store as well, but that didn't hold much excitement so I decided to go to Target instead, because Target is always a good time. So I did some shopping and got some dish soap etc... I am at check out and realize I have no money, no credit card nothing! I ask the clerk to watch my stuff so I can go out to my car and see if my cc is in there. Of course it is not. I am about to go crazy because I don't want to go home to a dirty kitchen with no cleaning supplies, and I don't want to have to go back to the store later to get all this stuff again. I finally call Brian to see if he will come to Target to pay for the groceries, but he couldn't. So I asked the clerk is my husband could give him a cc over the phone. He said they usually don't allow this, but he would do it for me!! Okay so I am getting all my stuff into the cart and heading out to the car, and guess what is missing? Yep my KEYS!!! I haul all of my stuff back into Target, oh and Lexi has about had it with me by now. Ask the clerk if he has seen my keys, he hasn't I go searching all through Target, empty my diaper bag, they are nowhere to be found. I want to cry about now. After about a half hour of searching I check my pockets for the hundreth time and find them in my COAT pocket. I was just so glad to find them that I didn't even realize how big of and idiot I am until later! I am just so glad it is a new day!!! WOW.....someone throw me a pitty party quick!!!
