Our Boys

Brothers. Together. See.the.Love




Bridger

Bridger keeps us on our toes and has quite the personality. So far at preschool this year...He asked his friend if he had car insurance. I'm sure from listening to our conversations about our wreck he understands that people need to have insurance so people like us don't get screwed in the end :) He also drew 2 yellow things on his stick person and when the teacher asked him what they were, he said "kidneys." Doesn't everyone draw kidneys on their stick people? He uses big words and I often ask myself where he comes up with half the stuff he says (responsible, disappointed, realized, natural, dedicated, forgiving). The other day in primary he was pouting and they commented him on how reverent he was being :) I had to laugh at that. He still sleeps on his floor next to his bed. He knows how to work Jeremy's cellphone better than I do. I should videotape it. Anyway, here are some pictures of the little buster...



Connor

Connor is now almost 7 months and I can barely keep up with him. He army crawls and just about has "normal" crawling down. He weighed 15 pounds at his 6 month check up. He was in the 10th percentile for his weight and the 45th for his length. He giggles all the time and rarely cries. Bridger loves to play games with him and still LOVES to give him kisses. He is eating "solid" foods now and eats everything although he favors some more than others. He wakes up around 1:45 every night- I'm determined its the furnace kicking on because the utility room is right below his room, Jeremy begs to differ. Otherwise he is a great napper and sleeper in general. He has 2 teeth on the bottom. We love our little Connor. See how cute he is for yourself...






Utah

A few weeks ago we made the trip to Provo to visit my sister Shayla and her family as well as my Grandma Gilbert. We had so much fun hanging out with everyone. Max and Bridger enjoyed playing in the mud and water in their backyard. Briger and Max weren't overly friendly to Avalon but one day she will get big enough to hold her own. Sunday afternoon we went up to Bridal Veil Falls up Provo Canyon. The weather was beautiful and the little boys were able to throw rocks in the water. They had a blast and were lucky enough to not hit one another in the head even though there were a few close calls. We did lots of shopping, we even went to Cabela's which always makes Bridger and Jeremys' day. Jeremy, Corde, Shayla, and Brig were able to enjoy a game of laser tag. Corde and Jeremy whooped up on Shayla and Brigham :) I'm guessing there will be a rematch in the future considering the competiveness amongst all of them. Uncle Corde was with us so we ate at Jimmy John's a few times.
