July 2015

July 11th, Nolan turned 3 months old. We are still living out of suitcases here and I was just really proud of myself with all the things to pack with 5 people, including buckets of medical supplies, that I remembered to bring a #3 ahead of time for this pic. Mom win. It may be a ghetto 3 but it's all I got.

He loves lying on his belly now and rolls over any second you put him down.

July 17th kicked of the Hyde Park City celebrations. It was raining, chilly and cloudy but we still went. What a bummer day for bad weather though.

The Kimbers came with us.

 

Coleman playing on the blow up toys.

 

July 18th at the Hyde Park parade. Holly and Nelson. This was the official kick off of completing treatment and finally doing something fun. We were back at home. I felt I was behind on everything for weeks but so glad to be home.

Brandi and Jessica Henrie

Holly and Nolan. I had to gather candy for my kids in the soggy road because my kids were on a float.

Hyde Park 11th ward float. My kids were basically meeting many of the kids in our new ward since our ward was created right before we left for treatment so we had hardly been.

Coleman isn't in Primary quite yet but they let him come.

Coleman snuggling with Nolan.

July 24th North Logan parade

Nolan loves to lie face down. It's so bizarre.

 

Nelson and Coleman enjoying the porch.

My kids started swim lessons at Smithfield Rec Center and loved it. Everyday before going Coleman would say, "I'll just watch Evy, mom. I'm not going to get in." But as soon as we would get there he'd get right in. (with my help of course.)

Brandi liked to snuggle Nolan during swim lessons.

 

First Kool Aid stand! The kids loved it.

 

Oh no. Evy's discovered lip gloss.

We got a season pass to Seven Peaks. It's fun but ghetto.

Before we even drove away.

 

July 30th we went to Bear Lake for the day.

I love how Evy and Abi are laughing here.

Analise and Coleman.

 

June 2015

Baby  Nolan on Grandma Karlene's bedspread. 6/3/15

We went out for snow cones since we didn't get to go out much. It was nice. We stayed in Lehi to be close to Huntsman. Coleman can't figure out why his straw isn't working here. My kids seriously ate the whole thing.

Jessica waxing my eyebrows in her basement salon. How hideous is this? Evy saw this picture and said that's when I was having Nolan. Umm not quite. Ha ha

Steve doing is usual.

I turned on the water for Taggert in my parents' backyard and found this gem. This is how Steve fixes leaky faucets.

Nelson's first break from treatment and enjoying getting outside.

Evy and Coleman love to pick Nolan's toes. Evy did this to Coleman as well. They must belong to me.

 

June 11, 2015. 2 months old.

 

6/12/15 We went to Hogle Zoo. Winston and Coleman.

Evy on the elephant

Winston and Coleman loving the interactive dinosaurs. One sprayed water.

Winston, Coleman and Evy after the bird show.

Baby orangutan

My mom insisted on taking the kids on this train ride. It was short and lame.

My family + Winston enjoying the sun right in our faces.

We went to Heber Valley Girls' Camp to see Gene and Karlene on their mission. Evy and Amanda playing on my phone.

Gene's hat from Arizona. Karlene said everyone up there wanted one like it.

 

They took us to do a big swing and Evy did it.

Nelson and Holly gearing up for their turn. This is one of my big shirts I wore when I was pregnant. Don't you hate this stage? Too small for maternity clothes but too fat for your own clothes.

I look like a wood pecker

Nelson clear up top.

Coleman loved the sandbox next to it. He didn't care at all about the swing.

I need one of these at home to keep him occupied.

Found the kids in the cabin playing games. Sigh.

Hot dog roast.

Canoeing on the lake.

6/14 Nolan's blessing was in Lehi at Gene and Karlene's clubhouse. Since we had to be near Huntsman we did it privately with all our family. I think they were thrilled not to drive to Logan.

Holly, Nelson and Nolan

My family

Karlene and Nolan. Nolan was named after her father.

Gene and Nolan

Don't you love it when you take a snap shot of your baby and he barfs right when you do?

He is loving sleeping on his belly now. Don't even think about turning him over. I love when babies put their bums in the air when they sleep.

Some dog took a chunk out of Taggert's ear. Gross.
