Typical

Remember when I showed you that funny crawl of Marinn's? It was hilarious, right? And a little worrisome? Those days are gone. And now that I am not worrying about it...I miss it. I guess that's how parenting goes. Here are some pictures of our giggling girly crawling normally and so proud of herself!

one for the money..

two for the show...

three to get ready now go babe go!

Playdates

Second generation friends are the best!

We have some pretty terrific friends in Maine. Some are new, some are old. And the best part is our kids can play together. It's fun to watch them interact and play the way we used to. Brady became quite the social butteryfly. Here are just a few of our "maine" friends. We miss you guys already!

Braden with Ayda. The trampoline the place to be!

Brady taking a "sand shower" with Kai....you two!

Even Marinny made a new friend with Wyatt although she not quite sure here!

New Kid on the Block Cole and Brady chumming around like they have been friends for life!

I'M BACK!!

Okay after a few VERY frustrating days of construction(and deconstruction) my blog is back! Much thanks to Leslie who talked me through this drama and showed me how to get things back in order! Please excuse the old posts ...I made some promises to friends to post the second half of the Maine trip. And yes, I really don't mind reliving the memories!

I posted this picture because: a) To prove that Kim was there

b) To show the beginnings of beautiful fall in my parents backyard

c) To document that Kim does enjoy reading

d) ALL OF THE ABOVE!!

Sometimes I forget that I live in a desert...and then I go home and it becomes obvious. Brady is caught climbing the very trees I used to climb. And is that a NATURAL smile I see?

Braden's first taste of a Maine delicacy : Whoopie Pies! YUM! He asked me the other day why Utah doesn't make Whoopie Pies....I had no real answers for him.

I'm loving this pic of the kids riding off into the sunset together. Oh wait. That's not right. I'm lovin this picture anyways!
