July so far..+

july has been pretty dang packed for us. we started it out by celebrating the 4th. we went to the Basin City parade, and then BBQ'd at brad and sanettes house and hung out that afternoon. that night we packed the kids up and went to town to watch fireworks over the river. they were actually pretty great!

the girls and i treked to Utah all by ourselves! we went the week before my birthday.. it was so much fun. we partied the whole week. we ate at all my favorite places, shopped, went up the canyon, and just got to see family, and spend some time togheter. lots of snowies and splash pads. this time, coming home, felt just like that. coming home. (as opposed to thanksgiving where i felt like i was leaving vacation to go to vacation) 

lynley and bennett had a great time. and they only started to lose it (fighting) the last day when they were both sufficiently tired and sick of eachother! ha!

we also have managed to pack in a camping weekend in there too (and the months not quite over.. well today i guess is the last day!) we went with some freinds (bryce and andrea calaway) to the tucannon agian. it was a great time. lots of river rafting, camp fires, smores, and dirt of course haha. 

as far as a quick pregnancy update: i'm 31 weeks, and at my last apt we found out that baby is breech. (which is the weirdest feeling ever) also, i'm once agian measuring about 2 weeks small. (typical ha) i still feel pretty dang good though.. somedays i over do it, and need to go to bed at 8pm ha! but for the most part.. i cant really complain!

tyler's work is going great. what a blessing!!! one that we thank God for every single day.

lynley girl is swimming like a fish. she got her first hair cut while we were in utah. she is anticipating starting school, and not looking forward to her shots that she has to get in a few weeks. we debated getting her tonsils out next month.. but i think we're going to wait a year before we do it. she loves my belly, and always is giving the baby hugs and kisses. she's pretty excited for the new baby to come. she is my little babysitter for sure. she's such a big helper with folding laundry, and dishes. she feeds her 4 kitties everyday and pixie too. she is quick to apologize if she's done something wrong, and even quicker to forgive us when we do her wrong. she's learned 8 articles of faith so far!! i'm so impressed by her. she tells me she was "born to run fast mom" she has determination, and ambition that i am obsessed with. her summer freckles are my favorite.

callie girl is mama's girl all the way. she loves watermelon and otterpops. she can say pretty much anything, but her favorite is "I DID IT!" it's pretty cute. she's starting to count to three "oneee....twoo...weee.." she totally has an opinion on what she wants or doesn't want. and lets us know. "ya" or "no!" she gives the best "nuggles" and oh my gosh she's still obesessed with her "bankys" those blankets are so gross!! she is such a good easy girl though. happy always, and loves her people. especially lyn. she worships her. 

today we are packing up and heading to priest lake for the week! yay! k! here's my iphone photos from this month. woohoo.
