Here are some events, projects, and pictures from the month of June.
I was inside cleaning up the kitchen when I heard these two giggling outside. I smiled and thought how nice it is to have two to entertain eachother. I peeked out to watch them laugh and I didn't know whether to scream, cry or LAUGH. I did a little of both and let them carry on until I got my camera. You may have to double click on the picture to see it...they're eating chalk. Kelsey was FEEDING it to Aiden.
Kelsey is so cute about her belly. She'll say, "I have a BIG belly." I'll ask her if she likes her big belly and she says, "YEAH!" Me too, lil darlin.
This is how Aiden rides the scooter...with his hand! Like that that skateboarding dog, it's precious.
One of the fun things about living in Utah is being close to family!
The zoo with cousin Edie
and our friend Eden (and Elisa)
Baking cookies with Edie
YUM!!
We had our friends the Phillips and Connellys over for dinner and birthday cake on Sunday night. It was fun (as usual) to get the crew together. Only this time we had a lot more kids than we did 7 years ago...
My poor baby already has SIX teeth and he's getting more. Here he is at 3am. Soon after, he was fast asleep again.
What?
Who me?
Sound asleep...
Mom!? What are you doing in here taking a picture of me?
I totally woke him up, so much for a sleeping picture
Peek-a-Boo!
My handsome little man, 11 months old
ALOHA!
My parents went to Hawaii for the first time and brought these back
WB is off, but aren't they cute!?
Poor Aiden hates it.
Who's idea was this? Grandma's first, today Kelsey's.
She was on cloud nine while he was screaming, trying to get out.
He ESCAPED!
A whole new world to explore...the FRONT yard
I dislike sandboxes b/c of the mess they can bring to a house.
SO, our sandboxes become a mini pool in the Summer.
SCISSORS! Kelsey helping Oma and I in the yard.
Trying to do what mommy's doing

Latest photoshoot of Kelsey, 2 years, 9 months
Red stuff on her face...YUMMY
A MOOSE!
We saw these on our way up to Silver Lake for a Sunday afternoon picnic
Playing with mom's shoes
Such a little girl
A swim day with her cousins (my cousin's kids)
See why we were surprised to have a boy?
Aiden and I having a moment. My cousin Holly took this, isn't she great?
We went with Tal's cousin Allie and her baby G to This is the Place Heritage Park
It is like stepping back into time...to the time of the Mormon Pioneers.
Here is a statue of Joseph Smith talking about going out west with Brigham Young
Kelsey got to learn how to wash and dry her own clothes
This used to be the family bed. I forgot how many people lived in this house but it was something like 13.
It was hardly the size of my kids' bedroom.
We took a train ride around the place but it became a bit difficult with Aiden wanting to walk around and baby G crying. Kelsey liked it though! It was a HOT day...
Kelsey found this little rocking chair and started rocking her baby
I guess I should get her one for her room!
Allie & baby G
Kelsey helping to print the newspaper
It was amazing to me how they had to set every letter, punctuation, etc.
Kelsey went to her first party "by herself." It was her cousin Edie's party who lives down the street from us. It had a princess theme and we had to make a quick stop at Walmart for a princess dress. I didn't realize she'd grown out of her Tinkerbell one. I guess it's time to step into the princess world. I forgot my camera so this is my friend's camera phone
Then I snapped a few when we got home. She LOVED walking around in those SHOES!!
I've been trying to get my house the way I like it, but it takes a lot more time & money than I thought.
Aiden's room BEFORE
This crib is currently for sale if anyone wants it
Aiden's room AFTER, well, in progress. I need to put in pictures up and stuff
Any ideas?
We had our ducts cleaned...this was what came out
We had our house numbers re-painted
(yes, they are there in real life, I took them out for privacy)

It looks like you guys have been up to so much fun! The new pictures of the kids are just absolutely adorable. I love the chalk eating...classic!
Can't believe how big Aiden is getting! That is so great that you went to the pioneer heritage park. We need to do that with our children one of thses next visits to Utah. What sweet pictures of Princess Kelsey. Don't ask me why, but it made me think of prom :). Miss you, but see you in September.
You are so nice to compliment me on a tiny little picture! :) It was fun hanging out...when's the next time?
Great photos! At least you don't have a dog or he would be eating the dog food. Crayons are tasty too! Oh, I just made a blog book and it turned out fantastic! I used Blurb. Blurb gives you more freedom in the editing process without having to create PDF's. I looked at and even tried other companies, but ended up frustrated because I couldn't get the look I wanted. The price is about the same with all companies.
Loved this post, so many fun pictures. We have never been to this is the place park, but it looks way cooler than I thought-I honestly thought it was just a park, silly me. Also, funny enough the first time I ever saw a moose was on Dan and I's first official date at . . .Silver Lake of all places, they must hang around there all of the time. Take it you moved Kelsey out of Aiden's room? Looks cute, I totally wake Shad up trying to get pictures too, he doesn't really appreciate it. Love the football pjs, Shad has the same ones. Lets hang out tomorrow, Friday or Saturday! (PS why did you put a hideous picture of me on your blog?)
