2 year pictures

So Kai will be two this month and I am such a bad mom and have not has his pictures taken since he was 4 weeks old. I have a lot of pictures of him though just none of them are professional so I decided it was time with the help and push of my good friend Corianne who took them. She was awesome and has the coolest props, gave him candy, and was really fun with him the whole time not to mention the awesome photos she got she is very good thanks Corianne I love them and can't wait to get the prints! Here are a few I stole from her photography blog www.corihenderson.blogspot.com cause I don't have the disc yet. Hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Swimming in Saratoga and CUPCAKES!

So the last two weeks I have been teaching swimming at a pool in Saratoga and yesterday was the last day of this session. For the kids I had cupcakes made at dippidee's they were so cute (and no I didn't get a picture of them) my camera battery was dead but one of the moms took a picture of Kai eating his and from the picture you can tell they were really good!! They were bright blue and had fondet orange and pink fish on the top of them. Anyways I had a lot of fun teaching for this neighborhood and can't wait to do the next session in July. Hope everyone is having a great summer so far.

EXTINGUISHED!

So most of you know that I work at the pool teaching swim lessons I love my job and this is one of the reasons why...Yesterday morning I was teaching two sisters who are also in my ward and the older sister was driving me nuts to make it shorter than it was she was just not listening like a good girl should ;) so..I said to her "oh Autumn what would we do without all you children in this world" and she said "the whole human race would be extinguished!!" I just started laughing and couldn't be irritated with her anymore. So all I have to say to that is what would we do without kids really!?? So thank you to all the children that keep the human race from being EXTINGUISHED!!

Memorial Day and Grandma Jackie's grave.

Grandma Jackie's grave is in the Mt. Pleasant cemetary so on Memorial Day we drove down and it was beautiful they place flags all over the cemetary and there are flowers everywhere. Kai was so cute too and it was good for JR to see that. Kai leaned over and talked to her and kissed her without being told to I thought that was amazing but it just reminded me that children are so much closer to the spirit world than we realize it was a touching experience and for JR it was exactly what he needed.

4 Wheel'n at five mile...

Ok so I kind of did the pictures in the wrong order cause this is Kai so tired after a long day 4 wheeling and playing in the dirt. JR's cousins invited us to go 4 wheeling on Saturday and we had alot of fun even if there were a million other people there that day too. P.S. we are big nerds in the pics ;)

JR's Birthday

It was JR's birthday last Thursday and his cousins and their wife's/girlfriend and JR's friend Wes came to dinner with us at Tucanos. The next day we had cake at the house with my mom and Jess since they weren't able to come to dinner. Happy Birthday JR I love you hope you had a great day!

A day at the Park.

So the weather has slowly been getting nicer and nicer the last couple weeks and Kai is thrilled. I too am happy about it because no more tv he loves movies and asks for them all day long but as soon as I suggest to go outside his mind is off the movie and out the door. We went to provo last Monday to visit Linley and Kylie Mills, Linley had back surgery and can't even pick Kylie up to put her in the car to go anywhere. That would be so hard... and it was a great excuse to go kidnap them and play at the park. So we did and the two little stinks loved it Kylie would slide and slide all day if you let her and she was too cute running around jibber jabbering to me and Kai he could slide all day too but he doesn't like the "normal" way he goes on his tummy every time. They had fun on the swings but I know would have been happier running around I just got tired of lifting them onto the slides and lifting them onto the slides and lifting them (you get it). It is always good to catch up with Linley she is such an easy person to be around love ya girl! I think this week we will go finger paint with pudding at their house (outside of course) but I think Kai would love that.
