First Day of Preschool

Cameron has had so much fun this week going to school and being a big kid. He really likes his teachers and riding the bus. I kindof expected him to be sad, but he's been fine. But he did ask for the heart. There is a really cute story called the kissing heart that we read to spencer before starting kindergarten, in which you draw a heart on their palm and when there scared they can look at their hand and know that they are loved, that it will be ok and that we will be waiting for him when he gets home. It is a really good book, and it made it special for them as they had their hearts and looked and were comforted and came home to tell me. So heres some pics:

1st day of school, 1st day of school!

So Scott started his 3rd year last Monday. Halfway through babe. He is busy preparing a presentation at the society for theriogenology conference this week in Seattle, He leaves tomorrow. He also has a poster presentation which we just pulled out to look at- it looks awesome! He's going to be great, and have lots of fun I'm sure. Its a great opportunity for him and I am very proud of him.

Spencer started Kindergarten last week and has had lots of fun. He told me he loves his teacher. And I said you love her? And he went on to tell me that he likes her so he loves her. She has a pretty smile on her face, and she has cool shoes, and she does a lot for the classroom. Like duh mom- see all the reasons... Super funny:) I am glad he likes it though. Its going to be a great year for him.

Cameron starts school next week and will be doing joy school in the mornings 2 days a week and preschool 4 days a week in the afternoon. Everyday he asks if he can go to school yet, I think its because he wants to wear his new lighting McQueen shoes that i told him he couldn't wear until school started, I'm sure it has nothing to do with Spencer going to school already:)

Our week with family part 3

So Wednesday night we arrived in West Jordan to Scott's parents house. Thursday morning we woke up early and throughout the day we did laundry, cutting up fruit and vegetables, making Scrapbook wedding pages for the guest book, and the most fun- decorating cupcakes. 500 cupcakes! Camellia made all these wonderful cupcakes- brownie chocolate chunk- delicious and Karadie and me went to town.(Decorating of course). It was actually a lot of fun and it went really fast. The openhouse was that night and was beautiful. We were also able to get a four generaton Picture with Great Grandpa Morley!

Friday we woke up and got ready to head to Logan for the wedding. It was beautiful! And Shilahs dress was gourgeous! It was great to be there and to have all the family in the temple. The reception was in the park and it was a great day! We got back to our sleeping arrangements and crashed late that night. We woke up the next day and left for home. One week with family and we were able to do so much and to see everyone, it was great.

Our week with family part 2

So Monday we went with my family up to Island Park where my family always goes camping and took a couple days to relax and camp. Kind of funny to be sleeping in the big blue circus tent again with my family. I have many memories of that tent... good times. Hopefully my kids will have some as well. Aunt Karianne and Aunt Shannon were there and we loved playing games and having fun on the four wheeler. Karianne brought her new dog "Lady Sadie", that she let the boys name after Travis was born, and they had a lot of fun with her. Spencer enjoyed his first snow cone with cream and Cameron caught a fish with Daddy and Grandpa. They cooked it the next day for breakfast and the boys loved it. "He was Yummy and delicious!"The boys after playing in the river- they came home looking like Huck Finn's! Spencer's family portrait in his vacation journal. Super funny and awesome! the bottom says "I didn't draw anyone cute, just me.":)

Our week with family

So we were going to bless Travis on August 1st here in Pullman, but decided against it due to the fact that not many of our family members could not come and Scott's sister was getting married shortly after. So we decided we would bless Travis the week of the wedding in Pocatello ID in my parents ward and then all of our family could come. It was truly a wonderful day. So we left Saturday the 14th, and Sunday we blessed him. Scott did such a great job, and we had everyone there and in the circle, so it was really neat.(and I am so grateful to my mom, who knows shorthand and was able to copy the blessing for us.) So after church we came back to my parents house where we had sandwiches and my moms amazing mustard sauce, salads, and homeade icecream toppings. It was a very special day and thank you everyone for coming and supporting us. It was also the first time my sisters and all of scotts family were able to meet travis. So I'll post lots of pics and quit jabbering. Oh, I have to say that this is the blessing outfit that Scott, his 2 brothers and now my 3 sons have all been blessed in. Cool huh.

Holy Smokes

Sorry it's been so long. So much has happened over this last month so I will start slow and try to jam it all in. We have been loving having Travis in our family. And I am truly blessed to have children who love each other. They are so stinking cute to Travis too, it's been fun watching them. The other night after baths i walked into the living room where Spencer and Travis were and found this: Spencer reading to Travis! Well almost reading:) So stinking cute!

They love to help mommy and daddy with him and fight over who gets to help first... Additionally, we've found out that three kids is a lot more trying than two. I am more tired, and I am also more wanted. Life gets busier as well and there just is never enough time to do what I need, or feel I need to get done. It is getting better, It was more just a surprise to us.

Anyways, we are doing great, busy as usual and getting back on schedule.
