Dino Museum

After being cooped up all summer long, it was time to get out! We decided to go to the AZ Museum of Natural History on our Pogo Passes and the boys had a great time! We took Mason and Tammer with us too, since their parents were in Texas and met up with Heidi and Kellen and my cousins, Amy and Holly and their kids! Before we left, we saw cousins Lex and Shana and ended up going to Burger King Playland with them after, which was so fun! They just moved here from Utah, so it's been so fun having them here:) This was my first time getting out in public since I broke my foot and I would say it was a success!

Carden Boy

I can't say enough how happy I am that this boy adores his little sister! I had heard terror stories about kids hurting the new babies and feeling starved for attention, so I prepared for the worst and was happily surprised when he has been all smiles and lots of help and just loves Jaynie to pieces!

Quilt for Jaynie

My amazingly talented mother-in-law made the CUTEST QUILT IN THE WORLD for sweet Jaynie! I love love love it and know she will always cherish that her grandma made it for her!

1st Sunday

This boy was loving that Jaynie was finally coming to church! I had to snap a picture of Ryler, because he never left her side the entire meeting! He sure loves her!

1st swim

1 month old and ready for a swim! I didn't know if she would like it, but she didn't cry and was so relaxed! It helps that the pool feels like bath water these days, since it's so hot out! It was a fun day swimming with the family!

Daily Scene

She has these boys wrapped around her little finger...

Mel's Shower

My sis-in-law, Melanie, is having a baby BOY in October and we got to enjoy a fun baby shower in her honor and every detail was so cute! It was such a wonderful day and I am so excited for Tate and Mel to be parents!

Sweet Jaynie

This boy love his sweet little sis!

1 month

Adoration

These boys are in LOVE with their little sister and it's the sweetest thing ever! They can't ever get enough of her and this scene is a daily occurrence around here:)

Swim Play Date

We got together with some friends for a swim play date at my moms and despite the fact that I couldn't swim because of my broken foot, which meant Jaynie wasn't swimming either...I HAD to put her in this swimsuit that my friend Halee gave me, before she outgrew it!! It is just too cute! It was such a fun day chatting with some of my favorite people in the world and letting our kids play!

Summer Camp

My cousin Kristen posted these pics of my cute boys at her summer camp and I had to share! Looks like the best summer camp ever!!!

Newborn pics

Jaynie had her pictures taken when she was just 4 days old and I had to get a few with her brothers too! These turned out so good thanks to my amazing friend Cherri, who came to my house to take them! I will have to post all of the ones of Jaynie later!

Bosch

I have wanted a Bosch for several years but there is no way I could think of spending that money on a kitchen appliance! I am just too frugal! Well thanks to a successful Pogo Pass month and a wonderful husband who is full of surprises, this showed up on the doorstep out of the blue and was the best surprise! I love my hubby so much and am so thankful for him every day- and not just when he spoils me;)

California

Matt's brother Craig texted his family on Friday saying that anyone was invited to go camping on the beach in Cali for the weekend with them and when Matt got home from work Friday night, he said he thought it would be fun to take Parker and Ryler and go! Why not!? They were SOOO excited when Matt told them, since this would be the first summer in awhile that California wasn't going to happen and these boys are in LOVE with the beach! It was going to be a quick trip, driving up Saturday and home Sunday but they made the best of it! Whitney and Brad (and their dogs!) joined in on the fun and left really early Saturday, so they would have the entire day to play! The boys had so much fun on the beach and playing with cousins Talia and Brogan...I am so happy Matt decided to take this spur of the moment trip with the boys! They will always remember it:)
