HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!

Happy Valentines day to all our loved ones that are far away today!! Especially daddy or dada as Miss K calls him now.  We miss you and love you. 


We were going on a walk early in the morning and it was cold, so we were bundled.  Because we put beanies on Kennedy thought we were going to play in the "no" or snow.

(I did not send out Valentines this year, so I hope that this will suffice.  We love you)

Baby Camden

I feel really bad that I have not posted or even taken a lot of pictures of baby Camden (that is what he is called at our house by Dallin and Kennedy).  To be honest having 3 is not as bad as everyone warned me about, but it is really really busy.  Some days things do not get done like the laundry or the cleaning or a good dinner, and sometimes (like all the time) at night when I would normally blog I am just too tired.  Little, cute, sweet Camden wakes up every morning for the day between 5:30 and 6:30 happy as can be with no chance of going back to sleep. I can't really complain though because he has been doing this since 3 months.  He is by far my happiest and smiliest baby and my most high maintenance, is that possible?  He does not like to be left alone for very long at all.  I think it is because when Dallin is home he is with Camden most of the time.  It is really cute.  When he plays his Leapster he brings Camden on the couch to watch him.  When he plays with his wrestlers he brings Camden and gives him some of his guys to play with.  Now if we could just split that affection up so he could give some to his sister that would be nice:)  In Dallin's prayers at night he asked Heavenly Father to help him to be nice to his brother and sister, and then he said, nevermind just my sister!  Camden has been a great addition to our family, but 3 is just busy.  So for my family who are now happy that I have not posted pictures for awhile here is Camden at almost 8 months:

Kennedy wanted to hold him, so this is the before picture when she let him fall on his face.  Don't worry he didn't even cry.

The successful attempt at Kennedy holding baby Camden.


A few things about Camden:

He love to eat, he preferes people food and not baby food.  He will tolerate baby food as long as no one else is eating anything around him.  And you cannot fool him.  If I am eating a chip and give him a cracker he knows, if Nana Mare is eating caramel corn and we give him a cracker he knows and throws a fit until he gets real food.

He did not sit up until 7 and 1/2 months and that was with a lot of practice.  We call him stiff baby because he does not bend and likes to stand.  I had to literally fold him in half to teach him to sit.  It was pretty funny. 

He is happy as can be and smiles at anyone and anything.  I was crying one day and he thought it was hilarious and was actually giggling at me crying.  At least I couldn't stay sad looking at his giggling face. 

Suprisingly enough he is only in the 20th percentile for height and weight.  But since they are the same he is square and still cute and chubby.  His head is in the 60th percentile, my children have large heads, and the doctor told me that make babies seem bigger.  I thought she was joking when she said he was in the 20th, I thoughr for sure he was at least average..

He is so sweet and has the sweetest disposition and the sweetest spirit about him.

Pants on the Ground



Kennedy is a character and loves to sing and dance around.  Some of the songs you will catch her singing around our house are: Pants on the Ground, Kung Fu Fighting, Tonights going to be a Good Night from the Black Eyed Peas, John Cena's song from WWE, I am a Child of God and many others.

Kennedy is all girl, and that is an understatement.  But she also plays wrestling and superheros with Dallin.  She is just funny.  We laugh at her everyday.  When she wakes up we ask her who she is that day.  Sometimes she is a puppy, sometimes a princess, sometimes a mom, sometimes Kennedy.  We never know.
She loves lipstick.  This is what I found when I left my diaper bag down one day.
Then she knew she can only have it when I let her so she tried to give it back.
Then I started laughing so she showed me her pretty face.

6 is Old!

This year Dallin "is into" Superheros and WWE.  That is right, Dallin loves wrestling and Garrett did not introduce him to it.  He got money from Uncle Stevie and picked out wrestlers last summer and he loved them.   Then he found out that kids in our circle like WWE and they talked about it. And when Garrett found out that he really liked it he turned Dallin onto Monday Night Raw and the rest is history.  It is funny because Garrett has not watched wresting for 10 years and now Dallin loves it.  So because of this new found love, I made Dallin a wrestling ring cake and he got many wrestlers for his birthday and Christmas this year. 

I cannot believe he is 6!  That is just crazy to me that he is so old.

I took in treats to his Kindergarted class.  That is him sitting in his seat.

We did not do a big birthday party this year, but he really wanted to do something so we took him and a few friends that had morning kindergarten to Chuck-E-Cheese, since I had some coupons.  It was really fun and the kids had a blast.


Garrett got to stop by for lunch to see how the party was going.



We opened presents after Gar got home from work, Kennedy wanted some presents to and was kind of sad they were all Dallins.


Abby came to Chuck-E-Cheese and then to our house all day to celebrate Dallin's birthday.  After Dawson got off work Lisa, Lex and Dawson came over for cake and ice cream.
