Like Father, Like Son

I'm realizing more and more every day that Hunter is becoming his dad. He absolutely idolizes his dad. If he's given the choice of me or Greg, he'll choose Greg hands down. He loves to do everything his daddy does. He's his little shadow. When Greg is home, Hunter follows him everywhere and does everything he does. He has the same mannerisms and sense of humor. It's so cute to watch Hunter with Greg. We've decided their theme song is "Watching You" by Rodney Atkins. It's on our playlist. You'll have to listen to the words. It describes them perfectly. If Greg ever leaves the house and Hunter realizes that he didn't get to tell Greg goodbye, Hunter will have a meltdown. He'll cry crocodile tears because he forgot to give his daddy a hug and a kiss. I love watching the two of them together. It's so endearing and heartwarming! They make me laugh and smile every day, and definitely keep life interesting! I love them more than anything!

Buddies from the beginning!

















I'm so grateful to have such a wonderful husband who is such a good example to his son. They have a special bond that I'll probably never be able to touch, and that's okay. Hunter and I have our own special bond. It's just different. If only every wife and mother could have a husband and son like Greg and Hunter!

Hi Leisel! I found your blog from the comment you left on Tahnie's blog. Your family is just adorable! So are you still almost Vegan? I remember when we were shopping at the Park City Outlet's, for Girl's Day, and you told me what Vegan was. I thought that was so weird. People who didn't eat ice cream or cottage cheese? Were they crazy? Why would anyone do that? I had never heard of that before. I've learned a lot since then about health and diet and I've been Vegan for almost 10 years now!
Take care!

You are so fortunate to have such a great husband and kids. But I'm sure you're also a wonderful mother and wife, cuz you're a great friend!

What adorable pictures! Britton and Eric are entirely the same way...and I'm sure Tyler will soon join the ranks as well.

PS I LOVE the Norah potty post. She is adorable and I totally agree...every child is different. Britton isn't even close to being potty trained and he'll soon be THREE!

Liesel! It's been so long! I found your blog and wanted to say hi. It's been years and years since I've seen you, how have you been? You have a very cute family!!

Liesel! This is Jenny Evans. I, like everyone else it seems, found your blog! I haven't seen you for ages, but I think about you sometimes. My husband and I lived in your family's old ward in Taylorsville for 2 years, so I got asked about you from all your old awesome neighbors and I was sad to say I hadn't talked to you for a LONG time. Your kids are so cute, and I love the Daddy/son pics. I'd love to keep in touch with you so I hope you don't mind me adding your blog onto mine. So good to see pictures and see that all is well in your life as a wife and mom.
