Catching Up as Always!

So much to catch up on! 1 1/2 months has gone by since last time I blogged and we have been busy! First off, Happy Fathers Day to my wonderful sweetie! He is the best daddy a kid could ask for and the best hubby! Love you! He got a wet/dry vac for the garage (how romantic I know?) but it came in handy because 2 weeks later we shot a rock through our windshield in the garage and got to use it!

Below: Hyrum has mastered pedaling and can now ride a bike! (with training wheels). He loves it! We all got bikes and have been enjoying riding together but I have no pics because who is there to take them?

Hyrum's wonderful speech teacher (who we no longer "see" for speech but see for fun now) was getting rid of her kids jeep and gave it to Hyrum! He loves it! So spoiled this kid!


My beautiful 3 month old! Time flies!



We had a FHE at the IF visitor's center and Hyrum loved the Christus there. They actually let you touch this one which is pretty neat for a little kid!

Alison can now sit in her bumbo and support herself. She likes it but I don't because she pukes everything up when she sits in it. Oh well!


4th of July! Not very exciting day because I had to work but the kids looked cute!

Ben's birthday weekend we went swimming. Alison in her swimsuit!

Relaxing by the pool!

Alison doesn't love the cold water!

Did I mention Ben turned the big 30! Yup, he's old now! J/k honey! He is so old that we had to have 2 ice cream cakes to fit all the candles!


Ben's special day!


My brother Nate came to visit for a few days and the kids had fun seeing him!

Ben's parents sent 2 new outfits for Alison so these next 2 are for them! Grandpa's pick:

Grandma's pick:


Ben's birthday present to us was a fence he didn't have to build! It looks great and we are loving it! So nice to have Hyrum contained! We got a fire pit and taught Hyrum how to roast marshmallows and make smores! He loves it!

Because she's so cute...

Miss Alison Ruth at 4 months! Can't believe its been 4 months already! At 4 months you are sleeping through the night most nights (except for when mommy's at work). Rolling over. Smiling and laughing! Grasping objects with your hands. Grabbing your toes and pulling off your socks! Getting tons of loving from your brother, mommy, and daddy! We love you!

Hyrum is finishing up 2 weeks of swim lessons this week! He is a fish!

All smiles!

We've been busy and having lots of fun! My mom and brother come out on Sunday for almost 2 weeks which will be great. Can't believe school will be here soon for Hyrum!

Below is for the grandparents! Alison laughing and Hyrum riding his bike!
