Utah State Fair






On Saturday, we went to the Utah State Fair. It was SO crowded and hot! It wasn't as fun as the other years that we have been. There was hardly any goats and I was so disappointed about that! The kids had a great time though, they went on quite a few rides and the food was really yummy. Derek actually petted a goat and liked it until the goat put his face by Derek and then he kind of freaked out. Next year, we will definitely go on a weekday, so it won't be so crowded.

Kylies 1st Soccer Game!


Kylie had her very 1st soccer game on Saturday morning. It was so much fun! I was a little nervous because I am coaching, but it turned out really well. The girls on the team are so darling and sweet. It was so fun to watch them running around the field kicking the ball, and I can't believe how great they played! Ky loved it, but she says she still likes dance better. I will post more pics from the games later. Oh, and they named their team the Blue Sparkles. So cute!

Dereks Love of Books




So, I feel like I am constantly blogging about Derek. He's just at such a great age and he is always learning and doing fun things. Lately, he has been really into books. He stands to his bookshelves and pulls off every book one by one, then he sits down and looks through them. He will sit there for such a long time, it's adorable! I hope that he will always have a love for books.

Kylie is Off to Preschool!


Kylie started preschool yesterday-Yea! It is so nice for her to get away from her brothers and play with other girls. She was really shy at first(just like last year) but after I left, she did really well. Now I just have to wait until October for Ethan and Blake to start school. It has been a long summer and they are all so bored. I do miss them when they aren't home though, I crave the chaos! (Yes, Kylie wears that shirt a lot! I think it's so cute and Ky loves it)

Derek looks more like...

So Lucky


I am so lucky! Every morning, I get to wake up to this sweet face. Getting up in the morning is so much easier knowing that when I walk in to Dereks room, he will be so excited to see me. Derek still wakes up in the night time (this last week, it has been every hour due to teething). I know that it's crazy to say, but I really don't mind getting up in the night with him. I bring him into our bed and nurse him and snuggle with him. It's like our own special time, and being that he is definitely my last baby, I really cherish whatever time I have just to hold and kiss him. I am so happy that Mr. Boobers is mine!
