Cute boys

Nixon loves Talon so much.  He loves to talk to him and play with him, and he asks for me to take their picture.  I love that my kids love their baby brother so much!

St. George...Again :)

So Brock and I got back from Cabo on Monday, and I took off on Thursday to head back down to St. George for another fun girl's trip.  This one has been planned for months, and just happened to fall the weekend after President's Club.  We just went down Thursday night, and came back Sunday, so not too long, but just enough time to have a blast!
Steph Hansen (and her cute daughter Avery), Lindsey Harman, Jenn Phillips, Steph West, and I all left around 7:00pm Thursday night, and got in late that night.  Jenn's parents have a place down there, so we stayed there.  The next morning we got up and did a fun work out together, and then headed to Nolan and Treo's pool.  It was so nice and relaxing.  That night, around 6:00pm, Lisa Chavez, Alisha Van Wagoner (and her baby Blaire), and Brooklyn Schutjer all rolled in.  We got ready and went to dinner.  Then we walked to Swig and sat around and drank and talked and laughed.  When we got back to the house, we all painted our nails with Lindsey's shellac and light.
The next day was pretty much the same routine.  Got up, some worked out, we went to the pool, Nolan and Treo were there with their cute kids, and Jaylee loved hanging out with me and my friends.  We did a little shopping, got ready and went to dinner, then went to Walmart for some Dance Daring.  We would walk up behind some unsuspecting shopper and start dancing behind them without them knowing it.  It was pretty funny.  I slipped and fell and pretty much made a fool of myself!  Then we went back and had our own dance party!  The next morning Alisha, Lisa, and Brooklyn went home around 10, and the rest of us headed back to the pool for one last lay out.
I just love these ladies, and have been with most of them since high school, and some even before then. I am so lucky to have such a great group of girl friends!  I'm also grateful for friends who take pictures and send them to me so that I have something to blog, since I didn't take a single picture!

Rice Cereal

At Talon's 4 month well check I talked to his pediatrician about starting him on rice cereal to see if that would add any time between feedings.  As of now, he eats every two hours, except at night when, thank goodness, he usually sleeps all night.  But eating every two hours sure makes things hard during the day.  Anyway, he liked it, and is getting better and better at eating it every day.  I give it to him anywhere from once to three times a day, and add a little in his bottle before bed time.  So far it hasn't made him want to eat any less, but that's okay.  One day I'll look back and wish I could sit down with him, hold him close, and give him a bottle.  Right now it seems like it's all I do :)







Our Little Monkeys

In Grandma and Grandpa K's yard, there is a fun tree perfect for climbing.  The boys love to get up as high as they can go, especially Nixon.  If I ever can't find him, I check the tree, and half the time he's up there!

The Dentist

We had our 6 month check up at the dentist, and I'm sure their office just loves when we walk in.  I make all of our appointments back to back, so we're there for a good couple of hours.  The kids did great, and had no cavities!  Brock too.  I, on the other hand, had one, and an old filling that needed fixing, as well as my retainer came unglued from one of my teeth, so they reglued that.  Luckily for me, the dentist wasn't busy, so he was able to fill my cavity, and fix up everything else right then.  Bummer.  It's been probably 20 years since my last cavity!  They even checked Leila's teeth for her first time.  She did great!







Gotta love the TV in the ceiling
