Look Daddy!

Kennady has grown up a lot lately, which I am not happy about, but I guess is normal since she just turned 5 months. Following in her big brother's footsteps, she cut her first tooth here at Grandma and Grandpa's house, and now the second one is coming in, too. The funny thing is that I haven't ever been able to tell when either of my kids have been teething. All of the sudden we just see the teeth! Kennady is still such a sweet girl and has won over everyone here! She is also loving sitting in the Bumbo and can almost sit up by herself! (I haven't been pushing that much because I don't want Cam to miss out!)

First Tooth!


Can't wait to see you next week Daddy! Love, Kennady

Spoiled!

Well, we had a change of plans so me and the kids are still in Utah! My sister had to get her tonsils out unexpectedly and she was supposed to fly home with us, so I either had to stay, help out, and wait until she could fly or go home by myself. 9 hours flying time all alone? Not a hard decision! :) It has felt good to be needed here and I hope I've been helpful, but man I sure miss my Cam! We will have been apart for the whole month of August by the time we go back next week. (I guess that means we broke our 2 week rule that we had.) Cam sent me flowers yesterday and I was teasing him that I need to leave more often! Haha! Love you babe! While we're super excited to go home and see Daddy, we've been trying to make the most of our time here. My kids have gotten so spoiled, and so have I! Helpers galore, beautiful weather, and fun times with family and friends.....it doesn't get much better than this!

Swimming with Papa. Hudson loved it, even though he doesn't look that happy here.

Sharing Cheetos. These two are hilarious together!

So cute! Everyone loves Kennady!

Hudson loves watching his cousins play.

These two came down and said they were ready to go outside. Nice shoes!

Grandpa is so fun to play with!

Snuggled up watching a movie together.

Rach, Me, Jenn, and Morgan. We all went to USU together. They made school so much fun.

Me, Lacy, and Kayli. Good friends from high school and all of our kids!

Chelsey is such a good aunt!

American West Heritage Center

We decided to venture over to the Heritage Center in Logan with all of the kids. It was a really hot day, but we still had fun! The kids got to go on a train ride, pet animals, ride ponies, and learn some history.

I love the Wellsville mountains!

Utah Summer Fun

It seems like the time goes so fast every time I come home. Cam and I made it out here with the kids, who did amazing on the flights! We spent the first few days with my family up at the cabin in Bear Lake and then the last part of Cam's week with his family. It was so nice to see everyone! It was so, so nice to spend a whole week with Cam! We got really spoiled and are now missing him a lot! Looking through my pictures I am greatly disappointed with myself, but at least I got some. I guess we were so busy having fun that I didn't think to pull my camera out as much as I should've. Here's some of what I did take:

The kids with Great Grandpa "Pappa Charlie" and "Grandma Shirley"

More swimming with daddy!

After we dropped Cam off at the airport, we stopped at a park and met up with Kim, her girls, Liana, and Jaxon! Liana and I met in Missouri. We moved shortly after Jaxon was born, and then they have since moved back to Utah. A thunderstorm made our visit shorter than I would've liked, but I'm so happy we got to catch up a bit after so long!

I couldn't get the boys to look at the camera, but here they are looking at the geese.
