Doctor's visit

This is an old picture, but I thought it was cute.
I took Jenna and Summer to the doctor last week. It was Summers 5 year check-up, and she weighs 42 lbs. She is in the 80th percentile for height! My doctor tells me that my kids are lucky to be tall and skinny. She had to have 4 shots though. She kept saying she didn't want to, but she was so brave. She picked a sparkly braclet from the prize box and was showing everyone all day.



Jenna was only 2 oz. shy of 10 lbs. I was so dang proud. She went from the 7th percentile to the 26th! What a good girl!. She is also very tall. She grew 3 in. since her two week check-up. The doctor liked her double chin. She had to have shots too of course and was very sore the rest of the night, but was fine the next day.

Smiles

Jenna started smiling this last week. I caught a few cute ones. I was never fast enough, though, to get her dimple on her upper right cheek. I'll have to try when Jeremy is making her smile. She smiled huge at him yesterday and he was so proud.

She loves Logan. He has made her smile a lot. She has smiled a couple of times at the girls and they are always so excited to tell me.

I love my little girl!

Our beautiful view

It is so fun this time of year, when it's not too hot, to just sit in the front yard and watch the kids play. (Next spring we'll set up wasp traps early, we don't play in the back yard much cause there are too many wasps.) It reminds me of days at Wrigley appts. when we would sit for hours and talk. I only get to talk to other adults now on days that I excercise, or on Sunday's. (Jeremy doesn't count:))

The kids were riding their scooters and bikes until they realized it's funner (I know that isn't a word) to sit on the four-wheeler. Of course when Dad got home he ruined the fun. "Get off, don't play on the four-wheeler". A little possessive aren't we. He says he was afraid Logan would slide off the other side on his head when he was trying to get on. O-K, honey.

You should hear him make driving sounds. It's so dang funny.

Isn't this view from my front yard so beautiful. This is why I'd like to live here forever. You should see it in the spring when all the trees in the Orchard are blooming.

Grandma took this picture. I think she was about to sneeze. My Dad went out of town with my brother Steven on a motorcycle ride. So I came to my moms house to hang out. We had fun. My sister Cathryn and her friend and little girl came Friday night and slept over. We stayed up way too late talking. It was fun. On Saturday Mom and I (and the kids of course) went to Gardner Village to see all the Witches. The kids loved it. If I were rich, there are lots of things I would have bought there. Especially in the kitchen store and the fabric store. Anyway, then we went to my Sister Christine's in Taylorsville and helped her peel and slice lots of tomatoes for salsa. We had so much fun chatting and laughing. I love hanging out with my family. I get to see Cynthia a lot more cause she lives here in Payson by me, so when I get to be with Cat and Christine and Cherish I try to enjoy every minute. It's not often enough.

These were taken in the kitchen store (I don't know what it was called) Logan didn't want to have a picture at first then all of a sudden he did. Make up your mind child. I was off looking, Grandma took the picture. I could have spent hundreds there.

I had to put on both of these pictures. Logan again wasn't wanting to pose for pictures, but when he saw Kylee's pose (so funny!) he decided he'd come over. For those of you who haven't been here, the witch was really riding the bike. The kids loved it.

The man standing by Summer kept telling her that a fish was going to jump out of the water and through a hoop. He was laughing so hard cause she believed him.

This witch's hips were moving around and around. The stood there watching for a long time.

I got my hair cut really short on Friday. I love it. I like a small change every now and then.

Anyway we stayed and went to church with Mom on Sunday. Logan went to their nursery with out fussing even for a second. It was so fun! I'm going to Mom and Dads next weekend for Conference. Jeremy leaves on Friday for a week and a half. It's fun to have some me time now and then, but I will be so glad when he gets back. Last weekend he texted me cause he missed me! Can you believe it! I was shocked. It was nice to get home on Sunday, if you know what I mean!
