Buried Alive!

Where did my little baby go?

Lately I've felt like Trenton is growing up so fast. He's not my little baby anymore. He's going through an independent stage where he wants to do everything himself. He says "try, try" a lot! His favorite game now is hide-and-seek. Nyk, Trenton and I played hide-and-seek for almost an hour last night. Trenton would always hide in our closet. He didn't quite understand that we knew he would be there if he hid in the same spot all the time. He's really starting to play creatively with his toys. He loves building things out of his lego blocks and the other morning I came in his room and he had all his cars lined up. He's very particular about how things are put away and likes to organize things, just like his Mom!He also wants to do just what Mom and Dad do, including wearing our stuff--Dad's ties and hats and even Mom's high heels. Here's a cute picture of him all dressed-up!

We can't forget Trenton's growing love for music. He likes to be sung to and loves to join dad when he's giving a banjo lesson. Last night we sung "Love One Another" four times with the actions as he tried to do the signs and sing along too. He loves to dance and play his mandolin. Here's a very cute video of him jamming with Dad's band!

Crazy Boys

For those of you who don't know, I have been watching my friend's 2 year old boy, Treysen, while she does her student teaching. I watch him 8-3 Monday through Thursday. It has been an interesting experience, but Trenton loves having a little buddy to do stuff with. They do some pretty funny things. The other day, Treysen was playing with my keyboard and he was really getting into the music. He looks like a little Stevie Wonder!

They also like putting the Jimmy Bob teeth in their mouth, but they wouldn't let me get very good pictures. Treysen is spitting his out and Trenton has his in upside down!

I'm with the band!

Nyk's band, Teton Shadow Boys (formerly known as The Lazy Boys), played at the Rexburg Farmer's Market on Friday night. They were also the last band to play at Battle of the Bands with Rexburg Unplugged on Saturday night and got first place! Those of you that are looking for someone to play for an event. This is your bluegrass band! For more info check out their website www.myspace.com/tetonshadowboys.
