So I know he has scratches but he always has them and I got tired of waiting for them to go away. I just figured I should show what he looked like at 3, which is always having a scratch somewhere. He still is very handsome though.
I love this little lady.
Her hair is pretty wild in these pictures, but i can't get it to do anything or stay any way. It's in a very awkward stage.
Michael turned 3 this week. It's so crazy to me that he's already 3, I don't know how it went so fast. He seems so big now.
My mom with Michael and Erica. Both of Michael's grandma's were at his birthday party and I think it was a little confusing for him cause he's never been around both at the same time. Tom was here for the week also but left the day before Michael's party. Michael and Tom were fast friends. All the kids just love Tom. Erica is a big time momma's girl but she warmed up to my mom and was even willing to go to her on her own by the end of my mom's stay. 
This was at the end of Michael's party. He had all his friends over and had a great time. He was so excited about having his own birthday party, he's talked about having it for the last few months so when it finally came he was thrilled.
Grandma and Erica
These are Michael's cousins Dixon and Conn. He loves all of his cousins and was happy to have them come and play at his house.
Here is Michael with his best friends, Sophie, Abe, and Aliah. Getting toddlers to all look at the camera and smile is almost impossible.
The week before Michael's birthday we went to St. George for my friends Chantel's wedding. It was really fun I got to see Alisa and Katrina who are in this picture. We were really good friends growing up in Show Low and I hadn't seen them in at least ten years. It was great to catch up.
Andra was nice enough to let us stay with her in St. george. Michael seemed to quite enjoy her.
Me and the happy couple. If you know Chantel you know that she couldn't go with the traditional white dress. It was a fun wedding and I'm glad I got to go.
Erica really wants to learn to walk. She's been practicing with this toy. She is a wild women, but so much fun. 
So the only pictures I took of Christmas were Christmas eve in their new jammies. Michaels face looks greasy because he's been picking at scabs on his face so we have been putting neosporin on it to help it heal. I'm sure he will have a few scars though. I also love that erica's hand is on Michael's leg.
I forgot to take some of Christmas but we did take a video of it. Michael loved Christmas and opening presents. It was too much for Erica and after a little while she was just crying so she went and took a nice, long nap.
Brent and Michael built this wall, they had a lot of fun. Michael loves the snow.
Brent is usually the one to take him out and I stay inside where it's nice and warm with Erica.
I just love this little lady. She is so sweet and fun to have. 
Hanging out together in their very messy room.
My pretty little ladybug.
Out little ninja. The outfit was to small but it was to late by this time we were on our way to our ward party. He didn't seem to care it was to small. You can notice Michael's handy work in the back ground.
This was as good as a picture as we could get of the two of them.
Enjoying fall
Erica loved playing with her brother in the leaves.
We went last weekend and saw my Grandma in Arizona. It was her first time meeting Erica.
There neighbors randomly had this train in front of their house. Michael kept talking about it until we went down and saw it.
We stopped in St. George on our way and visited with the Bunch's . In St. George they have this water area to play. It was lots of fun and free so we had a great time.
The Bunch's had a great back yard for kids. They had 3 swing sets and lots of bikes to ride. Michael loved it.
They had a little hill in their backyard and Michael rode his bike down it several times.
Michael was watching tv at my Mom's house, notice the different color socks. He also has his puppy wrapped up in a blanket, I think it's cute.
My Mom, Tom, and their labradoodle Shadow. He was tiny when we went out for Christmas so we were shocked to see how big he had gotten.
Michael going for a ride. This stroller did pretty well considering Brent took it off roading.
I just love her big smiles.
We were only going to get one of the whole family but these other ones were to cute to pass up.
Our little professional.
