Trying to catch up...

OK...I have really been a slacker on my blog so here are several posts of what our little family has been up to and whats been going on with us this past month!
A couple of weeks ago, my sister and her family came out to Utah for a visit from Seattle on there way back from Disneyland, so we all got together at my Dad's house for a little bar-b-que and some visiting!
It is always fun when we can all get together- We were missing my younger brother Ryan though... but...we had a good time catching up and letting all the kids play- Sorry you weren't here RyRy!
My sister and her family are moving out to Germany at the end of August so any time we get to see them is exciting- We are going to miss you guys! Me and Charlie will just have to come out there and see you...sounds like fun! Chuck knows a little German...like Hi, my name is..., and he can count to ten, so I think we would do alright with the language! LOL! I hope you guys have a great time out there-
Stephanie and Sara



Kevin and Reggie



All the grandkids


Going to the Doctors
Poor little Camryn had an eye infection from getting sand in her eyes- Sunday night she was up all night crying and I had no clue why till the next morning when she woke up looking like this with her eyes all swollen and looking like a little lioness!- I took her to the Doctors and they gave her some eye drops and medication- A few days later her big, beautiful, blue eyes were back to normal- Then a few days after that, we were all back at the Doctors for Gavin- He was really sick with a fever, vomiting, and a full body rash- Poor baby...he finally started getting better a few days later- this of course all happened while Charlie was out of town- But the kids are all good now and my hubby is home! Yeah for Doctors!

Poor baby girl...she was so miserable


Gavin is 10 months old
My little man is ten months old now and is always on the go- He still is not sleeping through the night...seriously! He wakes up about three times to nurse, but at least he goes right back to sleep- He nurses every three hours and is starting to want more baby food- and whatever mom or dad is eating in front of him- He loves to play and already has a cute little sense of humor! He tries to keep up with his big sisters and loves to play with them- He loves, loves bath time and splashing in the water- and tries to eat the bath toys...no success yet! Gavin still only has two bottom teeth- which I am thankful for since he has a tendency to bite while nursing! Ouch. He can stand on his own now, for a bit, and is walking around pretty good with the help of furniture- I'm sure in the next few weeks he will try for his first steps! So not ready for that, but what can ya do- He likes to be outside and enjoys our evening family walks- He is definitely a Mama's boy and would love to be on my hip most of the day if he could- He is so much fun and we all love him and all the cute little things he does that make us laugh- Love, Love my baby boy!





Bridal Falls
A few weeks ago we went up through Provo Canyon and made a few stops- The kids favorite spot was Bridal Falls- We all walked up there and the girls had a blast playing in the water and being adventurous with Daddy, while I hung back with Gavin staying warm and dry- They had fun till it was time to go and the sun was setting, making it a little chilly for their wet bodies...they booked it back to the car, stripped down and bundled up in a blanket- but it was fun...good times!

Poor Camryn! I'm glad she's feeling better.
