Alive

So our computer crashed a couple of weeks ago and that is why I haven't updated the blog for what seems like eternity. We will hopefully have it up and going here soon because if not I might just go insane but we are doing well and hope that all of you are as well.

State Fair

Last weekend we took Caleb and Liam to the State Fair with some friends and we had a ton of fun. They had Sea Lion's this year which are some of my favorite animals but Caleb really likes them too if you see Caleb ask him what the Sea Lion says it's really cute.
Me, Madison and Shonda. Shonda is pretty much my sister and Madison is a dear friend of Shonda and I and we have so much fun when we all get together. We all worked at the good old Alphagraphics together.

Okay this looks like a mug shot but they had this pretend farmers market for the kids where they planted food and picked food and fed the animals as you where leaving they had this huge thing that the kids could stand by to tell them how tall they are but I think it looks like a mug shot. Anytime you ask Caleb to take a picture these days he does this think call squinty eyes and I think it's adorable.

Labor Day Weekend

Ben and I went up to Wolf Creek this last weekend with my entire family it was a blast. On Sunday the guys all took the kids on a hike while the ladies stayed behind to play games with my Mom this picture above are the kids and some of the adults on the hike.
My Dad's cousin lives in Huntsville and he has horses so Saturday morning we took all of the kids over to ride them. This is Ben with Caleb.

Liam stayed behind with my Mom because it was a bit chilly but here is part of our family.

Brayden and Brooks. These 2 became little buddies fast. Brayden will never smile for me so this picture of him is a miracle he acts like he hates me but deep deep down inside I am his favorite Aunt.

Daddy and Caleb

My brother is adopting a little girl from Ethiopia and she will hopefully be here by Christmas so she isn't in this but we can't wait to meet her.

Liam's 2 Month Check Up

Weight 10 lbs 12 oz (25%)

Height 22 3/4 (50%)

I can't believe that Liam is already 2 1/2 months old that just doesn't seem right. He is such a good baby. He loves to sleep and eat and be held. That's about all he does at this point. He has just started smiling and I love it. Here are a couple of pictures of him from this morning that I got. We love having Liam in our family what a blessing he has been.

This one is my favorite.

July 24th Weekend

Sorry for a million pictures. Ben and I met up with Ang and JD and took the boys to Bountiful Park to play this is Daxton and Caleb on the train. They don't look very excited to be on it but they both loved it.
Caleb got a shark painted on his leg.

JD was nice enough to take the boys on a ride needless to say they didn't like this one.

Caleb's 2nd Birthday Party!!

Caleb turned 2 last week I can't believe it. We had a Birthday Party for him at our house. We had pizza and a cupcake bar where the kids could build and decorate their own cupcakes it was a lot of fun. I bought this huge beach ball that you can hook a hose up to and it sprays water everywhere and then I thought it would be fun to have some water balloons. BIG MISTAKE on my end. I bought this ball thing that you put a water balloon in and it has a timer on it so if you get caught with the ball it will pop on you kind of like hot potato I don't think we even got to use it because my brother Clint started a water fight he got almost everyone to gain up on me and I lost bad I don't have pictures of the water fight but it was a lot of fun and Caleb enjoyed himself.

No 2 Year old should have this many presents he got way spoiled

My friend Denise has this huge cupcake mold and she offered to make Caleb his own cupcake for his Birthday Cake he loved it. Thanks Denise and thanks to everyone for coming we hope you had as much fun as we did.
