Continued

As you can see the back seat was crammed, but it worked out really well. I think poor Aidan got the bad end of the deal, but he was a sport.
They loved playing outside in the pool, riding their bikes and pushing little toys around.
My conference was Friday and Saturday, so Amy watched the boys. That couldn't have been easy.
What cute boys we have. They are so much fun. I'm glad that I'm able to go see my sister as much as I do. I'm going again in August, so there will be lots more pictures then. I think my favorite parts of this trip were picking raspberries and staying up way past my bedtime to watch Bones or CSI NY or any movie on TV.

NEW NEWS!

Wednesday we went to the doctor and found out that we are having another boy. YEAH! We're really excited to have another boy in our family. Now Dax will have a little buddy to play with. He'll be a great big brother. He already loves babies and is really soft and gentle with them. That might change a bit once he sees all the attention the new baby gets. But I still think he'll love him tons.

4TH OF JULY!


For the fourth we went down to my parents house. We left Friday morning. We first went to Brigham City pool with my sister and her kids and swam all day. Scott and Dax had a blast going down the big slide and Dax loved the little slides that he could do all by himself. I was impressed with how long Scott was willing to stay. He's normally good for about a half hour and that's it. This time he said, "It's a lot funner with a kid". So yeah, I get to stay longer and I have someone to chase Dax.

That night we went and watched Logan's fireworks in the mall parking lot, ate pizza and was able to visit with extended family. Saturday we woke up early to make it to the Lewiston parade. Dang that parade has a lot of candy which is super fun for the kids. We had a picnic lunch at my mom's house and later that night we went to Logan's old car show The Cruise In. We ended the night lighting fireworks at my parents house. Little Jack got scared so he went to bed but the rest of us enjoyed all of them. Dax kept saying again, again.

We left that night to come back to Blackfoot. We didn't' get home till 12:30 but we had a really good time. The fourth of July was a lot of fun this year.

Water Fun!

Yesterday my friend Katy and I took Dax and Maddy to Ross Park. I wasn't sure how Dax would do, it was a little windy but still warm. We were there for about two and a half hours. Just perfect I think. Dax loved it. He walked all over the kiddie toys, up and down the stairs, played in the shooting water, went down the slide by himself and followed Maddy wherever she went.
I think Dax had the most fun counting to three and running in and out of the pool. They did this for a good 45 min.

Here's Maddy showing us here floating skills. Very good Maddy! I can now say that Dax is a water rat. Thanks for going with us Katy.

More pictures!

It would only let me do four pictures on that last post for some reason but I thought they were all cute so here's a few more.

Four wheeling with Grandma!


Chris and Crystal bought this little four wheeler for Baylee and lets just say it has gotten its use lately. Its been over at grandmas and grandpas house so every time we go over Dax begs anyone to take him for a ride. He's even kind enough to bring you your shoes and jacket. He loves this thing.
Dax has now learned how to use the kill switch, where the key is and how to accelerate. His driving definitely needs some improvement, you kind of get whip lash while driving with him. His little finger just isn't strong enough to hold the gas down for very long.
Grandma's always a good sport to go out and play with the grandkids. Thanks Kathryn.

Baby Animal Days!

I know this is kind of old, but I've either been too busy or too exhausted to do anything. We went to baby animal days here in Blackfoot at the fair grounds. The kids as usual loved it. We were able to go to two animal days this year, one in Logan and one here in Blackfoot. Chris and Grandpa Poole weren't able to be there but we had fun hanging out with Grandma. We rode the horse ride, tried honey fudge, got balloons and ate some dang good hot dogs. What a fun time of year.
