Our Newest Addition

New Header

For you, Heather. Yes, we have 5 kids (for another few weeks).

Kylee's Baptism

Kylee turned 8 last month, so the next big step was her Baptism. She was baptized last Saturday by her dad/bishop and was confirmed on Sunday. It's hard to believe she is already 8 years old. We are so proud of her and the cute, sweet, happy girl she has become. We love her so much and are glad she has taken this important step in her life.

Alyssa also started pre-school last week. She actually liked it and was o.k. to let me leave her...and she even wants to go back!

Summer 2010

Another short, busy summer has come to an end. I think I'll let the pictures do most of the talking.


The primary kids at the Children's Parade.



Family vacation at Pineview.



Fireworks at Granite High.

Alyssa turned 3 in July.

Kylee turned 8 the middle of August.

Collin turned 5 this week.

He finally got his loft bed.


School started the beginning of August. We have three kids in school this year. I'm loving the quiet time at home with just two kids...too bad it's only for another 1 1/2 months.

Well, I saw my baby walkin'

Our cute Benjamin started walking. He only crawled on his hands and knees for about 2 weeks before he decided he wanted to be a big kid and wanted to walk. My cute little baby is getting so big so fast.

He also turned one on Thursday. I can't believe how fast a year has gone (and I still haven't updated my blog header).He is such a happy guy. And he loves to smile for the camera.He really wanted to touch his cake.Until we let him...then he had no interest (but the two year olds did).
Thanks to Grandma and Grandpa Marchant for the great presents. And super cute Sunday outfit. Happy Birthday, Boo Boo. We love you!

In the Jungle Room...

After we redid the girl's room, Aaron decided his room was old and told me he wanted a new room, too. I finally got around to doing it for his birthday. The boys decided they wanted a jungle room.

I used the monkeys from our website and Colette found the other animals online. Heather designed the monograms.

I found some clipart of leaves and just did a bunch in different sizes and colors for the trees.

My mom found this awesome bed online. The dresser fits right underneath it. Can you guess who was jealous he didn't get one? Don't worry, his will be coming for his Birthday...or sooner. For now, he at least has the matching bedding.

I made a mini-closet under the back half.

And behind the dresser is a little extra space we are using for food storage. Awesome!

Happy Birthday Aaron

Aaron turned 6 on Monday and he couldn't have been more excited. He has been counting down the days for the past month...at least. On Sunday, he got a watch from Grandma Marchant, and then started counting down the minutes 'til he got to open his presents. He requested a jungle cake, which was perfect, because it went along with his new jungle room (pictures to come). He received lots of great gifts from our family. And, since his feet were hitting the bottom of his toddler bed, we finally replaced it with a cool twin-sized loft bed (which left two siblings rather upset). Oh, he is getting so big. We love you, Aaron.
