Update

Last night we were at the park w some friends of ours and Hayden found a big Frog hopping to the grass field where they were kicking the ball around. He just went right up to it and picked the fat, slimy little sucker up and carried it around to show everyone. All i have to say is, I love little boys!! (Especially MINE!)

Hayden turned 6 on the 29th of June. And we are full throttle back into Transformers. I thought he was kinda over them but w/the new movie just coming out (not that we're going to let him see it) and Target & Walmart being fully stocked w/new figures i guess it was all too enticing to him.

For the 4th of July we stuck around and went to our church breakfast which was loads of fun! We did a lot of stuff around the house and BBQ-ed w family then took the boys to see the Balloon Fiesta Fireworks.

Hayden & Callin had fun doing the 3 Legged race w/daddy at the church breakfast!


Callin looks a little uncertain about the whole race thing in this picture.

We've had a good 1st month of summer! Lots of relaxing, playing w/cousins, walks to the park, and of course my favorite, naps!

Random Pictures

Here are some random pics of the past couple weeks

We went to the aquarium.

A couple weeks ago i drove down to San Diego with my parents to visit my little sis who's about to have a baby and when we left the house (at 6:30 a.m.) Callin was holding an apple. When i turned around to check on him once we got onto the freeway (maybe 10 min. later) this is what was left of the apple. He cracks me up!

lots of baths in our big bathtub

This was the only picture i took while i was in SD. This was right before leaving to go to my parents ward on Father's Day. i cant believe how grown up he is becoming!! Such a handsome boy!

If I'm Dreaming, DON'T Wake Me Up!!

We have a secret! Nathan and i are pregnant and we just found out that we are expecting a little baby GIRL!! We are all over the moon about this (except Callin. Who, whenever you ask anything about the baby in mommy's tummy will deny EVERYHING!) So here's to any savings we ever had or plan to have in the future! haha! November 6th cant come soon enough!

more boots

Its feeling a lot like SpRiNg TiMe!!

I'm the LUCKIEST girl in the world! We've had our eye on one of these play sets ever since we moved into this house (4 & 1/2 years ago) and we finally decided this was the year to finally splurge and buy one. Its taken quite a bit of time (on Nathan's part) to put this BAD BOY together, but its been well worth it!! The boys LOVE it!! (and so does mommy!!) We haven't decided yet what to put under it, we'll see.

We also got a new car! (Which i love more than the play set. He he!)

Its SO much fun to drive!!

I've been sewing also. My little sister is having a girl in June and i couldn't resist going out and picking some cute cuddly girly fabric to make a blanket for her. Its SO much FUN to sew for girls!!

I finished sewing my older sisters baby blanket

i HAD to include Callin in this post. Ive been collecting photos over the past couple of weeks of him and his OBSESSION for boots! This kid has to have his boots wherever he goes and whenever! its kind of embarrassing going out in public w them but what can i say, the kid loves them!

i have a bunch more that i will post next time.

(p.s. The last pic is Callin waiting for Hayden's ride to school to get here cuz he wanted to go too)

SLaKeR!!

Resolution #15: Be better about blogging! (i kinda suck at it lately)

I have a confession that I'm not too proud of. I literally have a handful of pictures of our family and our "doings" over the past year. I guess i can blame it on the fact that Ive been trying to enjoy living in the moment with my family & not worrying about preserving it in photos. (i guess its not a bad thing when i put it that way) Its officially a goal though now to do both! So BE WARNED for lots of photos in the future.

So, as for the past few months, here's a little peek at what we've been up to:

Before leaving for Christmas in Montana we celebrated with my sister and her kiddos

O! Callin turned TWO!!

A little Hokie Pokie

Hayden started Kindergarten!!!

Went to San Diego for my little sister's family

And that's about it folks! Until next time!
