Our 4th of July Celebrations

 Yummy popsicles!

 Helping to make lemonade

 Our dinner out of the wagon

  We had a very fun holiday this year.  Time was spent with my family and it was great.  We slept at my parent's house the night of the 3rd.  All the cousins, minus babies, slept together in the basement in our tent.  It was too hot outside to have them be out there plus we didn't want them waking up when the sun came up.  They loved sleeping down there, they thought it was great!
  Michael and my mom ran in races on the morning of the 4th.  Michael did the 10K and my mom the 5K.  Michael took 7th place, I was so proud of him!  His friend and a guy from our ward who also ran the 10K took 5th and 6th place, pretty awesome!  Kayleigh was almost mad that Michael didn't do better.  It was funny, I don't think she understands the whole "place" rankings because 7th is really good in his age division!
  We attended the parade per our usual festivities.  It was pretty lame, just an advertising fest for businesses.  I don't have a problem if they want to advertise, but make a float or something exciting for us to watch.  Of course the candy is entertaining for the kids but even ours got bored by the end and were ready to go.  It was super hot and that didn't help the parade experience either. 
  In the afternoon the kids had fun playing in the pool and having a water fight that Nana started with them.  Poor Nana taught them well, they all ganged up on her and she was sopping wet!
  That evening we made our dinner and then took it up with us to eat before the fireworks started.  It was a pretty fun picnic and we've decided we'll do it again next year.  With the change in firework rules, there were a ton of little "shows" going around in the neighborhoods around the junior high where we watch the big fireworks put on at Davis.  It was fun to watch them and enjoy the night. 
  Cute little Landon was scared of the loud noises associated with the parade (sirens) and fireworks.  he kept covering his ears, it was so cute!  Wyatt sat and watched the firework show and didn't seem to be bothered by it at all.
  I am so grateful for our independence.  We are blessed to live in America.  Happy 4th!

Snuggle time with my buddy

  Awe, I just love this little guy!  I enjoy my quiet moments I get with him at night after the older two are in bed.  (These pictures are from July, I'm just super behind on updating here.)

Hope I never have this again

You know what is just plain horrible? Mastitis. That's all I have to say.

Our garden

Here's what we picked today, it includes our first tomato of the season!

Again, from the mouth of a two yr. old

  Tonight while I was cuddling with Landon in his bed he said, "I love Jesus, he's my buddy." He had just asked me before that where Jesus is. I told him in heaven.
Landon is so cute and I'm really trying to be better and documenting things he says. I kept track really well of what Kay said when she was beginning to talk and I feel like I'm slacking with Landon. It's hard now that I have 3 kids. It means way less time to be documenting things like this but somehow I need to find the time!!!!

Our drive out of the mouth of a two yr. old

  As we were driving on the freeway today we drove by a motorcycle. The guy riding it was not wearing a helmet. Landon looked out his window and said, "He's not wearing a helmet, that's not safe." You are right Landon, it isn't safe! It was funny!

Roll over

Wyatt rolled from his tummy to his back today for the first time. Yay!!

Wyatt started cereal today

  I decided it was time to get our little guy started on some real food. Today is the day! Kayleigh was so excited! She's been wondering for the past couple weeks now when he can have baby food. I'm not sure why she is so concerned about it but she is.
  At first he wasn't sure and made some pretty funny faces but he kept trying and he ended up eating all that I'd mixed up. We'll try again tonight and hopefully in a few days he'll be downing it.
  I can't believe he is already old enough to start solids!

All 3 ready for bed

  With the summer months upon us I feel that we hardly ever have our kids in bed on time.  Oh well.  That's how it goes around here.  They are super cute and we are trying to adjust to all three.  I know, Wyatt is already 4 1/2 months old but it takes time people!
