Out of the Mouths of Babes...and Dudes- John Bytheway

"I always wondered how people could say. " I love you" to people they don't even know, but now I realize that we all knew each other well a long time before. We're really just finally meeting up with old friends. "

Kids Room

I finally got Hailey's room done. I took these right after they we finished so the coloring is a little off but I like it a lot.
A friend of mine helped me to this it took us two days to to (thanks Dianna).
The apples on the trees have the letters of their names on them.


What a difference it makes in a room when there are things on the wall.

peak at our apartment

I know it has been a long  time in coming, but here is part of our house.

 And our new wonderful couches that we love oh so much- wow what a difference it make to have nice couches. 
So this is our living room
dinning room
kitchen
When i am totally done with the rest of the house i will post them.

Crazy

I think we were driving down the temple and these two did this for like 5 minutes. It was pretty funny but so loud.
fun times fun times

hemp

Do you remember when this was supper popular? Well I was going through my things at my moms house and found my collection of hemp necklaces. I had one for every color and almost every outfit. sweet huh...lol

Logan's Blessing

Logan's blessing was a wondering experience. He was blessed on the 25 of July in Rexburg, Idaho. Jason was the one who administered the blessing. Many of our family members were able to be there.
But to be honest this was taken way later then the actual blessing. the day of the blessing was pretty crazy. In the morning we had to take graduation pictures- hoping to have time to take the blessing pictures as well. But we forgot his outfit so we could not do it before church. Then after church I had to feed him while we scrambled to put a meal together, because someone took half of our food-bread and salad. So all we had was dessert and the lasagna.  So we ended up having lasagna and trail mix and some fruit. It turned out fine. Just a little stressful. But right after dinner we cleaned up loaded up and got on the road to head here to Cheyenne.

playing Uno

Logan stayed up with us one night and so we were just hanging out and I thought this was just such a  cute picture. Of course the pose that i wanted to catch Logan did not stay in long enough to get but it sure was fun.

Sisterly Love

Hailey sure loves to spend time with her brother!
She is a great helper with changing his diaper. 

Hair

Oh how he has grown up so much since I last posted. He is starting to grab onto more objects and enjoy them. He is supper smiley and is so close to start giggling. He is getting so tall. Last time I weighed him he was 14 pounds and 27 i think inches long. So he is just tall and skinny and adorable!
When we went to the rookies game I did Hailey's Hair in a star. My friends from Rexburg old me how to do it-the did it for the fourth, but I thought I would give it a try. Hailey was very patient with me. It turned out really cute.

Swimming

oh it has been so fun. We have a swimming pool in our complex. So we have been going swimming a lot lately. Hailey took a little while to warm up, but is doing a lot better. We even let Logan jump in for a little bit. but It is just a Tish bit too cold for him.
Testing out the water
It is so fun to be able to get in the water with her an play. She has not been daring enough to get her head under the water, but she is getting closer.
Jason is trying to help her learn to swim.
It has helped for her to have something to go get- Like her octopus.

Walking

We finally got a double stroller. It has been so nice. At first I wanted one that seats side by side, but after trying and comparing we decided to get this one. It is perfect for us. They both do really well  in it and Hailey enjoys being able to move her seat in different directions or spots. So its fun. I have been going walking every day and it has been enjoyable.
My parents only live a mile away but the hill so we headed over there on Sunday for dinner. It was a fun walk, we went through he neighborhoods and looked around on on Sundays Hailey skips her nap because we do not get out of church until 2 and that would be too late. But i guess it took long enough that she fell asleep-pretty funny. 

Football

Jason and I were able to go to a football game together. It was a lot of fun. We were able to sit with a couple from our ward (Marc and Chelsea) in the student section. Our original seats are actually in this picture on the other side. They are alumni and have family still going to college, so they sit over there. But it was a lot of fun to get to know them and go to a game. The last college football game I went to was in third grade at the Air Force. So it had been a long time. Jason is thinking about going to the Boise vs. Wyoming game this Saturday. It is so nice to be close to so many different things to do.

Pretend

We have been having visitors lately. It has been a ton of fun. Bullseye and Monster have been playing with us. i even have to get them snacks with Hailey. it is pretty cute. They come all over with us. on our walks and sometimes they walk us to church. It is just fun to see her mind work.

My Luck in Cheyenne

I think I have been injured more here than I think I was in Rexburg and I lived there for 5 years. And we have only been here for almost two months- Ridiculous I say ridiculous!!!

I was leaving our friends house at like 9 at night and their court yard does not have any lights. I wanted to run home- they live just up the street from us. So I started running but in order to get out of their court yard you have to go up a couple of steps,well I did not make it up those steps as smoothly as I would have liked. So I must have tripped on the top of the step. So I went flying over the side walk and into the parking lot. It hurt a lot!
You can still see each on of these. They are not gone yet but hopefully soon. At least they do not hurt anymore.
