Cannon's 2 year old pics

Once again my sister in law Sarah took some amazing pictures of Cannon for me. These are just a few of my many many favorites! She always does such an amazing job in capturing his personality!

Update #2

Wow, I can't believe it's been over 3 months since I posted! I don't know if anyone even looks at this blog anymore but if you do I will give you a little update (without pictures, sorry!). A few months ago our computer decided to inform us that he wasn't feeling well, and he actually came down with a serious virus. I'm not even sure if he's going to make it, but I thought I would let my brother give it a shot in trying to fix him. I told him to work on it when he has time, which he doesn't have a lot of, so it's still in repair. Luckily we have been borrowing a laptop from some friends so we can have something to use. So many things have happened in the last few months that I will try and post pictures of a soon as I can. Cannon turned 2 a few weeks ago which absolutely blows me away! I can't believe how fast he is growing up! Another big piece of info is that we are expecting another baby at the end of August, and it's a GIRL! I'm actually a little nervous about having a girl, but super excited at the same time! All I know is she's going to have to be pretty tough girl to have Cannon as an older brother:) I will try to become a regular blogger again in the near future and post pictures as soon as I can!

Update

Things have been a little crazy at the Bake house for the last month or so. I was determined to blog a little update of all this craziness. Kevin had knee surgery last month. He tore his ACL while riding his dirt bike, yet he is still talking about going out riding as soon as he can. He says he will be careful from now on (so I guess he wasn't being careful all the other times :) Anyway, he is doing much better now. He is walking around pretty good with his brace. About a week after he had surgery I started a new job and have been training full time, so Kevin has been stay at home dad right now. This actually worked out pretty good because he was going to take a couple months off of work anyway to recover from surgery. Although he is not really sitting home recovering, he has started many projects on our house, starting with our bedroom (which is pretty much a construction zone right now), all while chasing around a wild toddler!

This picture was taken the day after surgery. Cannon was concerned about Kevin, and wanted to snuggle with him all day.

Christmas was good, even thought it seemed like it just flew by so fast! This was the first year since Kevin and I have been married that Mesa has been with us for Christmas Eve and Christmas day! It was really fun having her, and of course Cannon adores her!

I'm suprised Cannon didn't fall into a sugar induced coma after all the candy he ate on Christmas. This is a picture of him trying to inhale 2 candy canes at once!

Cannon got a little tricycle/scooter. He loves sitting on it even though his legs aren't long enough to pedal yet.

Our bedroom

Despite all the craziness, Kevin and Cannon have managed to keep themselves entertained!

Christmas Engagement!

Kevin's sister Kimberly got engaged last night! Ryan had planned a whole day of scavenger hunting/pampering for her. The end of the hunt involved Kevin dressed as Santa, who gave her a gift (the ring).

Kimberly opening her present. I wasn't there so I told Kevin to take pictures of them, and this was all he got! Oh well, a blurry picture is better than no picture:)

Santa and his elf

Before we gave the santa costume back, we decided to take some random pictures. Cannon didn't really like Kevin dressed up as santa at first, but then he finally warmed up to him.

Family Pictures

My wonderful sister in law Sarah took these pictures of us a couple months ago. I think they turned out fabulous! These are just a few of my favorites.

My hot husband

My Buddy

I LOVE this picture!

This was my favorite of Kevin and Cannon

We used this one for our Christmas card this year

Halloween

This year halloween was so fun with Cannon! I didn't think he would get the whole trick or treat thing but he caught on and loved it. We went in my parents neighborhood with some of Cannon's little cousins. The first couple houses we went to he would just walk inside their house, but then he caught on quickly that we were just there to get candy. He would even say "Tri tree " (Trick or Treat), "Ta too" (Thank you), and then " Ca" as he looked into his treat bag and saw all the candy he was collecting.

What a cute little monkey!

Kevin and I weren't going to miss out on all the fun so we dressed up too! I was a banana and Kevin was a chimpanzee.

Like father like son

Cannon's first climb

There is always a first time for everything right? And 18 months seems like a great age to start rock climbing right? Well I didn't think so, but with some persuasion from Kevin who assured me that Cannon would be perfectly safe and always strapped in his harness and hooked to one of us, I finally gave in. We just went to a little easy climb that you do before you get to the actual real climb. Cannon didn't really get what was going on at first, but ended up having a lot of fun!

Cannon, Mesa and Kevin at the top (Well, this is where you start the actual climb, which we didn't do obviously because we had Mesa and Cannon with us).

Cannon was so happy and proud of himself at the top

All of us
