The past few months

I lost my camera in the reservoir on one of our boat excursions. I think Sydney is an easy target to blame, she can't defend herself! I have a few pictures sisters have emailed to me and some blurry pics from my phone. Better than nothing.

The past few months:
-Nicholas turned 7
-Primary program is over. ahh, huge relief
-Denver trip with sisters
-Sydney potty trained
-Bob and I celebrated our 9th anniversary
-I turned 29 on 9/11
-SLC get away with kids, who knew such a simple trip could be so fun?!
-Attended a banquet where my parents received a wonderful award. (post of its own)
-play dates and more play dates with cousins
-Made it to a few Chuckars baseball games. Box seats are the only way to go with small kids.


SEVEN YEARS OLD


This is how they started out, gearing up for the limbo.

A couple minutes later it turned into this!


Happy Birthday to my oldest! There are so many days I wonder how I could do it without Nicholas. He is a great help. He is known for saying "yes ma'am" to me and prides himself on being a first timer. Nicholas is the child that has tried my patience no question. Not because he is wild or naughty but because he is very creative. Nicholas is a hands on learner therefore most things around our house get taken apart and experimented with. He is such a leader, perfect for being the oldest child. We all adore this boy so much. My VERY favorite time with him is right before bed, he turns into a chatter box and tells me every detail of his day. I love to hear everything he has to say. Right now Nicholas loves foot ball, skiing, tennis, swimming and playing with Isaac.

PALISADES WITH COUSINS




Visiting the Young's and meeting baby Thomas



It really is not fair how tiny Nikki is, just not fair:)



I absolutely loved spending time with and snuggling T-man. He is the most adorable and content baby. I won't get started with my flight home. Lets just say it was a complete disaster. Lets also just say I have been REALLY sick this pregnancy.

Isaac at his last t-ball game. He did really well and had a fun season.

Me and the boys gearing up for a big golf game at the 14th annual Nelson family classic.


I am not sure how I don't have Sydney in any of these pictures. She is always tagging along too. She has personality like no other, she is happy and the most social 1 year old (almost 2) I know.
