Ava is now 7 months. Time really does go by fast. She just started crawling and eating everything she can get her hands on. She weighted in at 20 pounds a few days ago. She is pretty chunky. I think Tessa Chris and Cindy's baby out weighs her by 10 or 20 pounds. She is a pretty cute little fat toad. Ahhh..the baby days!

Preparation for the big move!!







In 30 days and counting we will be making our big move out of the nest and into uncharted territory. After TONS of house drama we are finally moving into this home that we bought as an investment, that then turned into drama, that then turned into out home. We are exited and greatful to be turning this new page in my our life. Go Dixie!! Do they even have sports at Dixie?

Day out with Thomas




We also had the opportunity to go see "The Real Thomas" This was probably the highlight of Jex's life. No only did we see the real Thomas but Grandpa and Conner were there too. All the Merrill clan came with us and we really did have a good time. We also went to "The Musem of Heavenly Father" as Jex called it. In Laman's terms that means that we went to the visitors center. Jex couldn't watch the Joesph Smith movie because it made him cry. He has such a soft little heart.







We had a great opportunity to go to Cancun during the peak of Swine flu with some of our best buddies Kevin, Amy, Ben and Mattie. We had so much fun on the beach and at the pool. We got to go to Chichen Itza and Telum which were ver cool experiences. It was a much needed vacation amongst the choas in our life.
