Awesom hand-me-down clothes!

Check out this super studdly suit on Spencer. It is almost too small but I pretty much am making him wear it as long as he can because it is so handsome. I bought myself these blue shorts at a yard sale 2 weeks ago and then Kaylee got the same blue shorts from a neighbor. I just had to get a matching picture. Kids day at the park. I finally got Kaylee to agree to sleep in curlers again. She always says that they hurt to sleep in. But look at those gorgous beach curls.....Isn't it worth it?
Beau's girlfriend Jessica...or dedida as Kaylee says it. She was such a sweetheart and played with the kids at the park because obviously my hands were full with 3 kids which makes it hard to play.

New Headbands

Spencer has discovered that crayons are great for coloring on furniture and that markers are great for skin. At least it was washable. Our poor garden this year only grew minature veggies. Most of our corn was this size.
I made this cute headband after seeing some on other blogs. It's great because it's just my leftover fabrics.
Isn't she a great model.

Labor Day Fishing Trip

For Adam's 30th birthday I got him a fishing license that he never used. I guess he thought the kids and I wouldn't want to come (because I often remind him how miserable it is when I'm prego...the smells, the heat....and so forth). He LOVES fishing and since Beau had just found an awesome spot at Potter's Pond we decided to go. It was fun to have the kids actually see a fish.

Lanaya's 3rd Month

Our sweet little Lanaya! I can't believe she is almost 4 months and could be eating real food (although I will wait for awhile). She has officially learned to roll over and seems to do it most in the crib. I often find her on her tummy and frustrated because she can't roll onto her back. She is so sweet and become well tempered in the day......she is still a stinker at night and it really is starting to wear me out. Hopefully I can find a way to have her sleep longer.

Beginning to laugh

Vacation continued.....

Another cooking picture but I've been noticing that Kaylee isn't a toddler anymore, she's a little girl. Lanaya loves to sit at the computer with Adam. It makes me laugh because it looks like she is reading everything he is. We got a picture just like this of Kaylee. So sweet.
Well I hope that Carrie got a better picture than I did but these two are 2nd cousins or something. It was funny because Carrie and I wore the same shirt and then we dressed our babies in the same pj's. Wow! We must be related. These next few pictures are of my Mom's reunion. Not many people made it but it sure was fun to be with Carrie and Jake.
I can't believe how much food my teenage brothers eat.
Little Axel taking a bath in Mom's kitchen sink. What a cutie? He has got the most hillarious laugh/chuckle.
Lydia driving the beasty suburban. I can't believe she's almost 16.
Lou did Kaylee's hair like Michelle on Full House. It was really quite cute.
We stopped to play at this Park in Spanish Fork to break-up the long drive. They were too scared to get in but at least we tried.
Again driving the Gater. Spencer even started to drive.
Aunt Christina letting Kaylee drive the lawn mower. She couldn't stop talking about how fun that was.
Awesome picture that Adam took of a dragonfly.
The dragonfly on Kaylee's finger...notice her wrapped hand still sprained from the week before.
Spencer holding the dragonfly.

Vacation...or at least no work!

We had a family reunion at a ranch in Emery County. I know what you are thinking...Emery? Where? Well let me tell you that is was a wonderful spot just off the highway that I'm sure many people just drive by and don't even notice. Adam and I had our own Cabin room which was nice to have a place to nap the kids away from the noise. The rooms were awesome and cabin like and not to mention with 3 deer heads watching us sleep. (At least we didn't have the drooling Buffalo Room) We all had so much fun. Kaylee and Spencer watching this scared little bunny under the rocks. There were a lot of little creatures that came through camp. The first hour we were there a HUGE snake was on our cabin porch. Can you tell I hate snakes. It was about 4 feet long but to me 1 foot is too much. I was careful when walking outside the whole time and even had Adam walk me to our room one night just because I was scared. I'm a wus I know.
Spencer loves to pretend to ride 'bullseye' from Toy Story so he loved this saddle.
Family picture in our matching shirts that Lanaya conviently pooped on during group pictures.
Daddy and the baby.
Kaylee hurt her wrist really bad. We questioned whether or not to go and get an x-ray because she was so sensitive. We decided to give it a few days and I think she just sprained it thank goodness. It was really hard watching her NOT have fun.
Riding Granpa's "horse" behind the 4-wheeler
We just had our 5 year anniversary and Adam just got initiated into the family with "Unga-Bunga" from grandpa. He sure was a good sport.
We rewarded the kids with a camping trip in the backyard. This is them trying to wake daddy up.

Kaylee Pictures

Glasses Party and July Fun

Lanaya is 2 months and weighs 11lbs. 5 oz. I was having fun trying new things with our camera.
Isn't she adorable? Those cheeks sag down and touch her chest. HaHa!
This year at International Days they were giving free hot air balloon rides. We waited in line for an hour and were only about 5 groups until our turn when they ended for the day. So...we got a picture instead of a ride. It was still cool to see up close. Kaylee lovin on her little sister.
Another morning project while mom was still asleep. They unstuffed the rocking chair.
We had a fun "glasses party" for Kaylee. The theme was bunnies and carrots.....do you get it? Because carrots help your eyes. I know it's kind of a stretch but it was still cute.
