Random Baby Pics

These are just a couple pictures I haven't added yet that I wanted to share with everyone.

Spence and Owen

Owen's Blessing

I wanted one of the 3 boys together, but Kyle wasn't going to have that...little stinker;)

Once again, Kyle didn't want to be part of the picture...Spencer outgrew this by now, when is Kyle going to get over it!!

My dad and Owen...we don't get enough pics of my dad with the kids...I love this one!!

All the priesthood holders who took part in the blessing
My Uncle Marvin, Baaba(my grandpa), my dad(Owen's Papa), Tyler's dad, Uncle Tim, Daddy, Uncle Joel, Uncle Chuck, and Uncle Chris (what the heck is Chuck doing to Chris)?

Owen was blessed on July 5th. He was blessed by Tyler at our home with our family. His cousin Sabreena is 6 days older than him, and was blessed a couple days before him. Marcee and I tried to get them blessed on the same day, but between the 2 families it wasn't able to work out, so I had her bring Sabreena in her blessing dress to Owen's blessing so we could get some pictures of them together. Aren't they so cute?!!!
What a special Day:)

One Month Old

Owen turned 1 month old on June 24th

I'm going to try and take Owen's picture in this chair every month to show how much he grows. He looks so tiny in it here.

At one month old Owen:

-holds his head up

-he sleeps a lot!!

-he's a good little eater

-quite a content little guy

-loves to be held

-such a cuddle bug

I know I said Owen is usually pretty content, but in this video he isn't very happy. I think he was a little hungry:)

Owen's first few weeks

For about the first 3 weeks after Owen was born, this was about as wide as he'd open his eyes. He's actually awake in this picture. We thought this was so funny.

Brotherly love

Daddy with all 3 of his boys...I love this pic!!

This was Kyle's first night sleeping in a bed other than ours. We got a trundle bed for Spencer's room so the boys could sleep in the same room together. He did very well adjusting to this. Sometimes he sneaks into our room during the night:)








Spencer holding Owen in the morning before school. It was very hard for him to leave for school the first few mornings. He did not want to leave Owen!!

Giving him a kiss goodbye

Just hangin' out

They can't get enough of him!!

Owen is 9 days old here. He and I just got back from Spencer's class field trip. Love the crossed feet!

I try capturing the smiles as often as I can...it's hard to do when they're so little.

His cute chubby profile

So sweet

First day of church...3 weeks old.
All my boys have worn this tie

Owen and Mommy

Owen is I think 5 days old in this video.

Oregon Coast

Getting buried

Kyle and his sand crab

Boys and their sticks:)

Spencer just hangin' out on the beach

We took a day trip to the Oregon Coast with Holly and Chuck and their family. The boys had so much fun together playing in the water and building in the sand. Spencer even got buried all the way up to his neck! They all built sandcastles and ran from the waves. Owen was so tiny I wasn't able to put sunblock on him yet, so I made some shade for him with a chair, and some towels and blankets. He pretty much slept most of the time. The weather was great that day and I'm glad we were able to do this as a family.

Baseball

Nice Hit!!! Excited he made it to first base!
Getting ready to catch

This year was Spencer's first year playing baseball on a coach pitch team. He played T-ball the last 2 seasons and was ready to move on. He's come so far since last spring and really enjoyed it again this year. He had 2 great coaches and his cousin Jeremy was on his team again too. We're looking forward to next year.

End of School Days

These were Spencer's last 2 days of school. This is Spence with some of his friends at lunch during "play day"

Blade, Spencer and Lily...these 3 are very good buddies and hoping to be in the same class for 2nd grade.

Spencer and Mrs. Crowson...we'll miss her. She's a wonderful teacher!!

Spencer and Owen...Kyle is to the left somewhere, not wanting to be a part of the picture...go figure:)


I know this was back in June, but still I wanted to share them with everyone. Spencer starts school in September and he's a little nervous...not quite ready to go back yet. He is however excited to be a second grader, and see all his friends. As for me...I'm trying to cope with the fact that he's growing so fast and enjoying him while he's home these next few weeks. Kyle is also starting preschool in September and is very excited!! I was a little hesitant on doing 2 years of preschool, but I think it will be good for him.
Second Grade and Preschool...here we come!!!
