Weekend Words

What a busy and sort of stressful weekend it was.

Saturday we loaded up and attended a family reunion in Montpelier and then spent the afternoon

at Bear Lake.

Sunday our family had to speak in sacrament meeting.

We have had over a month to plan, prepare, and stress about this.

I'm so glad it is over and I can now enjoy my Summer.

Weekend Words

I'm always a little sad to see the weekend come to an end,

especially after such a fun one.

We kicked things off Friday night with a date night. 

I know how important it is to take time each week away from the kids and

reconnect with your spouse. We don't always make time or put a priority doing this, but 

when we do it sure is fun to get out and spend some alone time. 

Beautiful sunset when we came out of the movie theater. 

If you are looking for a good movie, we really enjoyed

The Fault in our Stars. 

(warning: take a box of tissues with you)

Kyler had a blast at Kid's Night Out at The Peak while we were at the movies. 

He has really been missing preschool so it was the perfect remedy for this. 

Saturday we put our season passes to Lagoon to good use. 

The boys had fun trying out new rides while

 Khloe and I took it easy in the shade away from the crowds.

Saturday night we celebrated cousin Max's birthday. 

He had a darling Mickey Mouse themed party. 

Kyler is a very thoughtful little guy and is always making/creating cards and projects to give to people. 

He was pretty proud of his Mickey Mouse card he drew for Max:)) 

Cousins having fun doing the Mickey Mouse dance. 

Sunday was spent honoring and celebrating the men in my life. 

 Already looking forward to next weekend... 

The Green Grasshoppers

T-Ball is in full swing and I couldn't be more excited about it:))

This is Kyler's first year playing sports and so far I think he is really enjoying t-ball.

I'm not sure if it's the actual game he likes or the fact that he can stand out

there and play in the dirt:)) 

It's pretty fun being on the same team as his cousin Jonathan and it makes for a pretty big cheering section when all the grandma's come to cheer these two on. 

I hope this is just the start to many years spent cheering 

him on at the ball diamond. 

3 Months Old

I can't believe Khloe is already 

3 months old:(

She is seriously the sweetest baby ever!!!
Since we can't freeze time, I'm trying to

 soak in every minute with her 

(especially since this may be our last). 

Things that I want to remember at this age are:

*Usually sleeps through the night 11:00-8:00.

*Loves to nap on her tummy.

*Rolls from her tummy to her back.

*Always has her fingers in her mouth.

*Loves to hold on to her blanket or have it 

on her face to console her.

*Has naturally curly hair on the top, a bald spot on the back of her head, and a mullet down her neck.

*Eats 4 ounces every 3 hours.

*Loves her big brother.

 *Has a really strong neck and holds her head well.

*Has a really skinny waist and bum. All her

0-3 months pants and shorts fall off.

*Smiles when she recognizes mom, dad, or brother.

*Loves to be outside.

*Loves to swing.

*Hates to be burped. 

We can't get enough of her sweetness!!!! 

Vacation Part 2...Las Vegas

After finishing our vacation in St. George with 

family we decided to extend a few days and head for Vegas.

We have a semi-open adoption with Khloe's birthmom

and decided to arrange a meeting.

We were kind of nervous after all this would be the first time that we would see each other since that first meeting back in February. A lot has happened since Khloe's birth and her placement and I think we were all nervous to face each other. We stayed at our favorite place in Las Vegas, Tahiti Village, which made the trip well worth it.
