Hunters first vacation!

We recently returned from our vacation in St. George, which was Hunters first outing from home! We left early Wednesday morning and made constant stops because Hunter couldn't last too long in his car seat. We stopped in Payson so Hunter could visit his great grandpa Twede, it was very heart warming seeing these two great guys together.

While unpacking Hunter enjoyed watching the ceiling fan, this video shows his excitement.


We didn't do too much down there because I wanted to treat Allison to a very relaxing getaway. While I spent time watching our little guy I sent Ali to enjoy a day at the spa with a relaxing massage, I enjoyed time with my son while Ali got a little break from taking care of us.


Hunter being sweet every morning he wakes up!


Perhaps one of the greatest moments was having hunter sleep nine hours straight! A miracle considering how much our little guy eats! We must have worn him out with all our shopping. Hunter takes after his dad and needs a very dark room to sleep in, but since every room in St. George is booming with light we set up his bed in the laundry room hallway which he slept in better than at home.

We took Hunter swimming for the first time which proved challenging before we got to the pool. With all our searching we couldn't find swimming diapers that fit correctly which would explain the over sized one he sported at the pool.


He always enjoys time in the tub but being in a large pool he seemed a bit apprehensive about the situation. Not knowing what to do or expect Hunter was indifferent with this entire situation.


I would guess we spent less than ten minutes before he became too cold and had an meltdown, afterwords we returned home and warmed him up in a tub that was more to his liking.


I love this picture because it shows my two favorite people in the world happy and having a good time. I hope we can find time soon to get away from life once again.
