Back from Hermitville!!!

So, I realize it has been almost three months since my last post, which is quite frankly, pathetic. So, instead of cramming the past three months into one post, I am going to post one event at a time. Hopefully it won't take me another three months!!!

Blame it on Tax Season!!!

I know I always have some excuse for my slackage, so this time it's Tax Season. Oh, what a wonderful time of year in the accounting business! If you want to check out our business's website, click here: http://www.ab4you.com/.

Besides working day and night on tax returns, we have had some fun. We had a Superbowl Party with Troy's family where we ate, watched the game, and played everyone's favorite game....ACQUIRE! (For those of you who like business/strategy games, this is a must!)

On Valentine's Day we ate Papa Murphy's infamous heart pizza, and Troy suprised me with roses.
For Troy's birthday,we went down to Mesquite to play BINGO (I know it sounds silly, but it's REALLY fun) with Jessica & Matt and Jodi & Steve; while my parents so kindly watched all of our kids.
For my birthday, Troy and I got a babysitter and both went and got Pedicures. It was great fun...Troy has always wanted a pedicure and he enjoyed it; however, he said he would rather get a massage next time. He did get adventurous and paint his toes blue! I also got a beautiful bouquet of flowers from my parents.
Thanks everyone for making our birthdays fun this year!!!

5 Months Old!

Max just went to the Dr. for his 5 month appointment and we can't believe how big he has gotten. He weighed in at a whopping 19 lbs. and 28 1/2" long!!! He is bigger than Darrin was at 9 months. We have a feeling that he will pass up Darrin eventually.

He has been a great baby so far and we feel so blessed to have him in our family. We just love our two boys to pieces and enjoy watching them grow and learn.

I just had to post this picture of Max because his expression is so hilarious! We have been trying to feed Max rice cereal and oatmeal to help curb his hunger, but as you can see, he's not loving it! He wants to skip the baby food and get to the good stuff (believe me, I wish he could!)

Finally...

Catching some Zzzz's

Max loves to sprawl out now when he sleeps. I couldn't resist this picture...he looks so cute. Notice that he is missing a sock...for some reason today he kept kicking off one of his socks. Maybe he's trying to make a fashion statement!!!

Happy Early Birthday!

Darrin is going to turn 2 in HAWAII this year (the entire Hill Clan is going for Christmas and New Years), so we gave him his big birthday present early (that, and the fact that the neighbors didn't like Darrin stealing their kids bikes all of the time!) So, here is his COOL, NEW, HARLEY BIKE!!! He loves it!

Thanksgiving Fun!

Okay, I realize that it is almost Christmas, and I am just barely posting Thanksgiving pics. But hey, my motto is...Better Late Than Never! Here is a picture of our cute Turkey and Pilgrim hats that we all wore during dinner (of course Darrin wouldn't wear his and Max slept through the entire event, but what can you do?)

Besides eating, we pretty much relaxed the rest of the weekend. Here's proof:
