Paxton rocking his first mohawk, it is pretty well a permanent fixture now even if you can't see it that great in this picture : )
We went to the dinosaur museum since one of Marin's favorite movies is Night at the museum and the T Rex. She had a blast as long as someone was near her.
The fam at the museum. I am too lazy to ask someone to take a picture for us so our pictures are usually taken from an arms length. Luckily Mark has long arms.
This picture just cracks me up, mostly because he posed for this on his own and thought he was funny. Of course so did the people that were watching.
Riding the dinosaur. 
Gotta get your picture taken by the giant shark right? Marin saw Mark pose for this picture with his head pretty well in the shark mouth this is as close to her leaning in the shark mouth as it gets.
Another one...oh man I love Mark. He was showing Marin how to fight the mammoth like the skeletons were so she joined in the crusade to take it down. 
Paxton rocking his Popeye shirt. The Whites gave us this shirt and it is one of my favorites for sure!
One of the many reasons why I love having a girl. Tutu's and converse.
It was a rough day for Paxton so he just folded himself in half and went to sleep. Oh to be young again.
He is seriously the happiest kid on earth. He is always smiling, rarely cries, sleeps like a champ. Check out those rolls on the legs. He isn't chunky by any means but that doesn't mean he can't have rolls right?
Tutus and dresses!
Swimming in Vegas, oh the weather was so awesome! 80's and 90's it was great. However the pool was wicked awesome cold and we weren't hot enough for it be a blast but it was fun for the kids, Mark and I were freezing so I laid out while he handled the cold like a man, a cold man but a man none the less
Checking out the dolphins it was fun, expensive and not worth it fun but fun.
Paxton waving hello he was seriously the hit of Vegas every where we went people just fell over him he smiled at everyone, he was such a champ on this trip. Speaking of being champs. On the way down to Vegas (6 hours) we stopped once to change Paxton's diaper and fill up for gas that was it. My kids were made for road trips that is for sure, HOORAY!!
Mark and Marin at the lion part of things, again not worth the money but Marin had fun.
Mark and the kids on the tiger. Mark good job on looking at the camera, Paxton looking at someone else, Marin smiling at the real tiger.
The family with the Coca Cola bear. 5 Reasons why we stood out in Vegas on the strip. 1. We had kids 2. The man was hauling the baby one Vegasite saw Mark and responded "game over" 3. We had clothes on 4. We smelled pretty 5. We didn't have a drink the size of our toddler in our hand. Now you learn something new every time you do something right? Well did you know there is a vomit police? (for lack of a better word) Paxton has always had a sensitive stomach and I think all the heat and sun had gotten to him and on our way back to the car Paxton threw up all over the place I mean whole bottle amount threw up. Suddenly there was a guy on a radio calling in the vomit police to come clean it up AMAZING and so glad that isn't my job!
These 3 pictures crack me up. We got flowers to put in the pots outside our front door and Mark put a flower in mine and Marin's hair so we decided to take a picture, Marin looked at it and said you can't see your flower. So I changed sides and we lined up to take it again.
You can see the flowers but I told her to wait to take a bite of yogurt I think so she pulled this face. I don't even think I could frown that badly. So we had to take it again.
SUCCESS!! Flowers showing check, looking at the camera check, smiling check, cute? Check.
The last picture of Marin being 2...
Kate, the little girl from upstairs came down for Marin's breakfast feast of mikey mouse pancakes. 
We don't have a lot of pictures of Marin on her birthday because most of it on the video camera. She got a bike which she is madly in love with, it has to stay in her room at night. She also got a fish which she named Mr. Cool Fish. The fish stays in the family room since he might freeze to death in her room.
We went for an Easter egg hunt on Saturday and had a lot more success than last year as there was a limit of how many eggs you could grab. Marin had a blast. Someone made the comment that they love that Marin is always in fluff, me too!
Steven made Marin the greatest present! My great grandpa made his grandkids this doll house. Steven painted it, decorated it, wallpapered it. It looks absolutely amazing! It is her new favorite thing! I always wanted a doll house and am so pumped that she has one now!
Easter. Yep it is all on the video camera but I did snap a picture of the kids before we went to church wearing their new Easter clothes.
Walking out the door, such a good Dad carrying both kids, and the diaper bag I think! Such a good looking group!Phew! We made it through the big post! Now Marin's birthday party is this Saturday so I will put pictures up from that once it is over and done with it. We have had a great wanna be spring if you are in Utah you get what I mean by wanna be I mean for crying out loud it snowed yesterday! Anyway things are going well and hope things are going well for you guys too!
All folded inside a bowl, a big bowl but a bowl none the less. 
When you have a little girl you have to rock the GIANT bows and flowers I think it is required for sure! She is 2 weeks old in these pictures.
My 
Again another requirement. Naked and a tutu.
That ever so hard first birthday! Gotta love that she knew what to do when you asked her how old she was, foot in the cake and everything!
2 years...oh it seems like it was just yesterday HA! (Fancy dress 2)
Not wanting to disappoint the statement of terrible 2 in this picture Mark is standing behind the door so she wouldn't scream her head off. Cute none the less.
Oh and the 3 year old (fancy dress 3)
I could not have asked for a sweeter, more kind, loving, and smart little girl. If I am only blessed to have one little girl I sure got a great one! Happy Birthday Marin!
