So Much to Blog..... So Little Pictures.

I have all the intention to blog about how our summer is going, but I always seem to forget that I even have a camera. We have had a pretty fun summer so far, and the excitement just keeps getting better. But there are really no pictures to prove it. I am such a horrible picture taker and I know that I need to be better at it. Because later I always regret that I have no new pictures to post or even to scrapbook. Here is my story..... on the 4th of July, Skylar played in a softball tournament in Snowflake. Their team did awesome and everyone had a good time. But I had no motivation to take any PICTURES. A couple weeks later we were up in Snowflake again for all the the Pioneer Day festivities. The parade and all the friends and family time was lots of fun. Did we take any PICTURES you ask?? Well yeah.. a few but NOTHING worth posting. And then I had the chance to stay up at my parents for a few days last week and there sat my camera wrapped up in his little bag...yep you got it.... I didn't take any PICTURES. It was a fabulous time in good ole Lakeside, I loved the weather and I loved the time I got to spend with my family. Chandlar had loads of fun with all of her cousins but I am sure she wont remember because I have no PICTURES of how cute and happy she was to be around everyone. Well I guess the moral of the story is next time I go somewhere I just need to break the camera out and start taking pictures. I know there is much more fun to come, I just need to catch it on film. For instance..... a family reunion and Skylar's birthday. So I hope you all can stay tuned because I promise there will be something that is worth your time. Hope you are all having a great summer..... I know that I am, I just need to capture the dang MEMORIES.

9 months/ Bath Time

Chandlar loves her bath time. I just had to post these cute pictures of her while Skylar was giving her a bath. I can't believe she is already 9 months. I took her to the Doctor last Wednesday for her well check. Here are her stats : Weight: 19lbs 53% Height: 28.5 in. 81% Head Cir: 17.5 in. 66% I guess you can say that she is a well average girl. I am so blessed to have such a healthy and happy baby. The doctor couldn't believe how social she is. She just loves everyone. I'm so glad that she is not afraid of anyone or anything. We love her to peices. Hope everyone had a Happy 4th of July. We had a great time spending our time in Snowflake. I am a little bummed that I didn't take any pictures of our activities. But I know my friend did. So when I can recieve those pics I will be more than happy to show you what we were up to. Well I hope all is well with everyone. Thank you for the time that you take to check on how our little family is doing. We are happy as ever. We love you all!

Happy Father's Day

I know that its a little late but I wanted to give a little Father's Day shout out to my hubby. I hope that you had a good day yesterday. I know we didn't do much besides driving home all flipp'n day. But it was fun to spend it with you. You are such a great father to our children. There is no one else out there that compares to you. Thanks for being there for our sweet baby Chandlar. She loves you to death as do I. Looking forward to celebrating many more Father's Day with you. We love you!!

Lake Powell

Well we had a fabulous time on our little vacation to Lake powell/page. We were invited to go with one of Skylar's buddies who plays on his city league softball team. He had gotten together a team to play in an all night softball tournament in Page. So instead of getting a hotel we decided to camp at lake powell along with Skylar's buddy who invited us. Since my family likes to camp we also invited them to come along. My mom, dad, and one of my sisters was able to go. I had such a fun time seeing her since we don't get to see her that much. Thank you for coming Holly, we enjoyed your company. Anyway, during the day we would play on the lake and then at night Skylar would go play ball. I only got to watch a handful of games but it was still fun. I am really bummed that i didn't take the camera to his games.. as a matter of fact we didn't take many pictures at all. But I did put together a slide show of the ones I have. I feel bad that I don't have any of Holly or Brittany... or my parents.. WOW!! I didn't do good at all with this whole camera thing. SORRY :( They are mostly of Chandlar playing in the water. She loved it!! All in all it was such a blast. I hope we can go there again soon. And maybe I'll be a little better at taking more pictures. Enjoy!! p.s. don't mind my pasty white skin... but i did come home with a little color, ha!!

No More Curls. :(

Well I finally decided to chop off Chandlar's last set of curls. It was a sad day for me, but I think it was something that had to be done. I wanted some for keep sake for her scrapbook that I am going to start. Skylar and I came to the decision together so that made it a little bit easier for me. Her curl was getting less and less... so as a result I knew I had to cut it off. I really wanted to remember her tight little curls cus who knows if she will even get them back. So with that said here is a little tribute. I have posted some pictures from when she was tiny all they way up to now. You can tell how much her hair has changed. I still love this pretty girl so much, and she keeps getting prettier and prettier. We love you sweet baby Chandlar. :)

A Few Things

Here are a few things we have been up too..... We took Chandlar swimming for the first time at my sister-in-law's little pool a few weeks. She wasn't sure what to think but I know she will love it the more we go. She actually did very well. She really enjoys the water. Then for memorial day we headed up to Lakeside for the long weekend. We were suppose to go to my nieces high school graduation, but we didn't get there in time. Sorry Amber, but it was good to see her and the rest of the family. We had a graduation BBQ and we headed up to big lake to go sight seeing. I have been there many many times in my life and every time it amuses me how pretty it is around there. Chandlar loved it too. She enjoyed the looks and taste of rocks. We had a great time and we are looking forward for many more fun and memorable times this summer. I {LOVE} this time of Year!!!

7 Months

Just thought I would post some 7 month pictures of Chandlar. I think these photos really show her fun personality. She has the cutest facial expressions. She loves to sit up along with rolling herself around. She has become quite mobile that way. Still no crawling, but I have a feeling it's right around the corner. In these pictures she is smacking her lips together. She is learning new things everyday. Its amazing how many things she picks up just by watching me. The other day we were visiting my grandma and I told her to wave goodbye like" this" and she started to do it. It was way too cute. I love being a mom and watching every milestone she accomplishes. Her latest favorite thing is her sound machine. Skylar and I bought one to see if it would help her take better naps during the day. Well come to find out she loves it. We turn it on and sit it outside of her crib, but the whole entire time she is searching and looking around for the dang thing. So one day we decided to see what she would do if we put it in her crib and this is what we found. We just had to take a picture of it. She snuggled right up to it and fell fast asleep. But don't worry we don't keep it in the crib for long. As you can see it might be a chocking hazard so we are fully aware of that. Once she is conked we move it out. But anyway we thought it was funny and wanted to share. She is such a joy!!
