10 Months old

In between moving twice in the last six weeks- We have managed to have a good time with Madsen. He is 10 months old now and loves to go out and about. He had his first hair cut (not counting me trimming off his comb over baby hairs), loves to go to the arcade, (so do I- DDR) and he says Boo, mama, dada, ball and lots of other mumbling. He is a busy little guy. His favorite thing to do is take a bath and swim on his stomach. Here are some photos of him this last month.

Out to breakfast again with dad



Chowing down at the Pizza Factory. He tins ice cream. I know... he's not supposed to have it.



After dinner he was off to the arcade. Jason and I get competitive at Skiball and Madsen collects and eats our tickets.


I took Madsen to the discovery Gateway with his cousins. He had a great time exploring around.

Madsen loves his cousin Taylor. She is so cute to him.


More arcade games with Papa Varner

Cookie Cutters - When I drove by this place I thought it was a cookie store and that they would sell lots of cutters. Hmmm I was disappointed when it was a kids hair cut place. But now that I have a kid needing a hair cut- it was perfect. He got in the plane and they put the wiggles on the tv in front of him.

I have never seen someone get a hair cut this fast. He was in and out in 30 seconds. That was probably because about half way through he had a melt down. Hence the sucker.

All done. So fancy looking. I actually liked his scruffy hair- but after a few comments from people.. I gave in and had it trimmed. I was nervous he was going to look like Lloyd Christmas.

Cancun

We had the best time vacationing in Cancun. We had never been before and now it is top of our list. Madsen had a blast there and was in the best mood the entire time.




I let Madsen loose on the beach one morning. The sand was so soft and he loved to crawl all over. He would face plant and keep on crawling. He ate a good amount of sand.

This guy loves a good meal


When we were playing on the swings the first morning there was another couple playing there with their little girl. We started talking to them and they mentioned how they were headed to Salt Lake after this because they had business there. Then they said they were from Boston. Jason then realized that it was Brian Scalibrine who plays for the Boston Celtics. He was on his all star break in Cancun with his wife and little girl. They were the nicest people and we ended up hanging out with them. Madsen loved playing with their little girl.


They got us tickets to go to the Boston/Jazz game when we got home. It was a good game- the Jazz won!



Jason and Madsen went swimming with the dolphins. I did not do it so that I could video tape them. Then right when it was their turn- of course my video camera battery died. Dang. My pictures are not that great because I was kind of far away. The only little guy is Madsen. Bad pictures.


Madsen was supposed to take a nap and Jason was going to go out on the jet ski. Madsen refused so we walked down to the beach to watch Jason. Then we decided that we would go for a spin with him. We were not even out of the slow zone and Madsen cashed out. A few bumps put him right to sleep. He even stayed asleep while I handed him off to the worker and took off his vest.
