Quick recap & update

WHOA.. time really does fly! Here is a quick recap of things we've done in pictures.

Tayler, Rylee and Jayson decided to make pig faces. I thought they were so cute. Jayson's barely fit his face.. hee hee! Tayler is definitely the arts and crafts director for the summer. I love it and so do the kids.
2 weeks ago we went to the zoo with my great friend Anna and her adorable kids. We had a great time. Thanks for the invite Anna. You are wonderful.



Jackson just chilled in his car seat. Can you believe he is 5 1/2 months already. He is rolling like a champ and sucks on his fingers non-stop. He is always smiling and we think he is pretty great.

We even saw the new baby elephant "Suri." She was pretty cute.
Jayson was so excited to see the giraffes. They actually went inside for a minute to eat so we got to see them up close and personal. (we thought of you Alyssa :) Jayson kept plugging his nose. Apparently he wasn't a fan of the smell.



Mikayla with the girls. She has been AMAZING these last few weeks. We have really enjoyed her staying with us. I'm sure at times she has been bored to tears, but we are really going to miss her. She is so easy going and so much fun to be around. We love you Mik!

On Saturday, July 3rd, we took the kids to the Kaysville Parade. It was my kids' first parade (yes, their dad has kept them from parades). Anna and Jeff saved us a place and we had a great time.
The kids loved getting candy and then at the end getting soaked by the fire trucks. Sean stayed home and played with the ditch witch all day and trenched the whole back yard. 7 hours of hot, dusty work. He is amazing and was a bit sore that night- to say the least. Thanks babe. We missed you.
Tayler lost her 8th tooth over the weekend. It actually wasn't super loose but she wanted to look like a rabbit and loose both her side teeth so she let Sean pull it out. She is getting so brave and when she wants it out, it comes out. The tooth fairy is going broke at the rate she is loosing teeth. Love that toothless grin.

Tomorrow starts our "girls weekend." All of my sister-in-laws, sisters, and mom (minus Jen :( are coming. We are heading to the San Juan Islands in Seattle. Can't wait! I'll have lots of pictures when I return I'm sure. Jackson is tagging along with me too. My kids love when mom goes because dad knows how to PLAY PLAY PLAY and they know they don't have to clean up until right before Mom comes home.

Loves!

jess- the comment about tay wanting to look like a rabbit had me laughing out load! that's all morgan does these days with her friends. i guess it's all the rage for 8 year olds. :) We went to the kaysville parade too but chickened out of the water part.

What? Your kids had never been to a parade? Is that American? Ha Ha Just kidding. I can understand why your hubs might not want to sit around on the dusty ground with little kids. I am glad everyone had fun at their first parade - 4th of July are the best ones!!

Love the baby elephant at the zoo -how cute is that. Babies = the best part of going to the zoo!

I cannot believe your little man is already so big!! He is a dollbaby.

Your girls get-away sounds like so much fun. My heart breaks for Jen and I know you guys will be missing her.
Have fun!

you are havinga fun summer!
May I tell you that I am jealous that you get to go to the San Juan islands. Joey & I went and stayed on Orcas island for a week and I thought i was in heaven! Words can't describe how beautiful those islands are! Seriously! WE caught crabs and ate them all week long - the boat ride over the island is amazing also. You should stop by the little munks island and buy some goods from them - amazing! I am jealous! I can't wait to see your pictures!!!! Have so much fun!
