forgot a couple things
ok so i forgot to say a couple things in my last post so i will squeeze them in now. ok so merrick is now riding in a big boy seat so he faces forward and he loves it! i cant believe hes so big. well my mom an di made a trip to provo to get the seat and merrick started throwing a huge fit so we started siing old mcdonald and he fell right to sleep so my mom bought him a CD that has all of the kid songs on it and he sings with and gets all excited and most the time he just falls asleep but it works! i recently took him to my dads so he could swing in a swing for the first time i know im a slacker. he loves the swing i think that we might get him a swing set for his brithday! while we were there my step brothers little girl Mallory just got a bunch of little baby chickens and merrick sat and chased them around and he fell on one and i felt bad but the little chick was ok, but he followed them around forever, but i will not be investing in any chickens...haha. but i do have a little video of him chasing the chickens!

Our Trip to Durango
This last week made a little trip to Durango to see family that we haven't seen in awhile and to introduce our newest addition to his grandparents, great grandma, aunts, uncles, and cousins. we were there for 5 days and we got to spend time with everybody which was alot of fun, johnny's dad played the guitar and sang for us and i was going to record it and my camera was dead but eventually i will get a recording of it, Merrick loved it! It was nice to visit and see everybody, johnnys brother lives in new mexico so we made a trip there to see him and the family. Merrick hated being in his car seat all of the time but overall i feel that it was a trip worth while. we will have to go there more often.
