Lately

I haven't really posted very much lately, so I thought I might just go through the camera pics and see what we have!
Katelyn is 2.5 months now (11 wks today). She smiles and coos! I LOVE IT! (Although this picture is from a few days before she turned 2 mo.)
 We have a mole in our backyard... pesky critter. Rob has a trap, but hasn't set it yet.
 Timothy loves to play in the rain. I think the umbrella is his favorite thing ever.
 Robby hiked Mt. Timp with my brother. They did the sunrise hike which means they hiked all night so they could watch the sunrise from the top. He said it was beautiful (enough to make his overly tired emotions flare and he teared up!) I'm sure the pictures don't to it justice, but they are pretty nonetheless.

 We had a play-date at Scheels with our good friends the Besseys. There were awesome fish aquariums, but I didn't get a picture.
There was a Ferris wheel!

 The escalator was a hit. Timothy deemed it his favorite thing from the day.
 There were picture ops all around and we took advantage of some!
Their reactions to the skunk was hilarious! Timothy even warned Spencer not to touch it or it would spray him!

 AHH! Help!

 They fit right in with the lion. ROAR!
 I ran my first race of the year! (Ironically enough, this same race last year was my last race of the year).
Warming up!
 Timothy enjoyed some wide open space to do a little running of his own!
 Ready, set, go!
 Waiting for mom to finish!
Apparently I ran it so fast that Robby was not ready when I came upon the finish! He barely got me stomping the timing pad.
 Walk it out!
 I was really proud of myself. I ran it in :33.22 (I think that might be my fasted 5K or really close to my fastest) and I didn't really train very much for it. I guess once you are a runner, it doesn't take much to get back into it.
I ran with my good friend Alexis. She rocked it and got 1st in our age group! I'm so happy she joined me for it. It was great to have a friend there!
 We are strong!
 Katelyn a few days after her 2 month mark. I love this outfit and had to get a picture of her in it.
 Stats at 2 month:
Weight- 12.06 lbs (74.54%) she's chunking up!
Height- 23.5 in (92.64%) She is TALL!
Head circum-15.25 in (71.9%) definitely smaller than her brother's!

She has grown so much and it is fun to see the boys hold her, she takes up their whole lap!
Cute Timothy! He is such a GOOD big brother and helper to me with her.
 Sibling love!
 This pretty much sums it up! He likes to squeeze. Poor baby!
 Then Timothy took the camera!
 He got all 4 of us in one shot!
 Brothers!
 Fall is here! and Halloween is just around the corner! So we painted some cardboard pumpkins!

 She is my darling little pumpkin (I had to take this because she may not fit this shirt by Halloween)
 General Conference wore him out! He couldn't even finish his pretzels.
 This makes me so happy! He loves to wear goggles! He wore them in the van today to run some errands and every time I looked in the rear view mirror I just smiled! He is so cute! And when we wanted to look at something out the window, he would tip them down and peer over the top! So funny!
 This is a random picture that Timothy took, but I put it in to show that we are working on our basement. (You see it int he background). Robby is making headway and slowly but surely it will get done!

Well, I think that is all for now. We are just getting by day by day. Timothy is in preschool and loves it. Me and Spencer and Katelyn enjoy our time at home. And we all look forward each day to Daddy's return from work!

  3. Hey Carlie, I'd love to hear how you think the transition from two to three kids has been. Most my siblings have five or six and don't remember. HAHA!

  4. Your kids are funny! The skunk part made me laugh! Anytime you want to meet at the dinosaur museum or farm country or anywhere else let me know! It would be fun to meet your new baby!
