Summer Fun-Part 2

Three little bird managed to hang out with Trayson one morning. He even got one in his hand. It was pretty much the best day ever.
The first day after Daddy left us to go back to CA...I apparently should not be left in charge of my own children.
Chilling in the bumbo AND holding a toy-what a little multitasker!
Only at Grandma's house does everyone get their own pool
Crazy little rooster!
First swimsuit of the season! Oh my goodness, I wanted to die she was so cute. Unfortunately, she was also too long. We had to return this one.
Aunt Mandy's fabulous outfit for Lilly! She was so well put together, even her binky matched. (Notice hand in pocket=adorable!)
Sleeping just like mommy! :)
Riding the flying goose at the fountains
Utah's version of Disneyland's World of Color. Definitely no where near as cool, but for Utah, it was a pretty neat little place.
Nanny Stacey and Lilly bonding after their month apart
She is just so stinking happy! I heart this girl.
And she hearts when Grandma Susan eats her toes.Grandma would stop, and Lilly would lift her feet up for her to do it again. She seriously loves it.
Best babysitter ever!!!
Swimsuit #2. This size 6 month suit fit my 2 month old :) We kept this one. Plus, it was only $5!
Evan was a quick learner when it came to the slip and slide
Well, this seemed like lots more fun than sliding, I guess.
This is all that little boy needs in life, some grass and some water to play his little heart out. Thank heavens for Utah summers!
Lilly on the other hand, was not so sure how she felt about all of it...Good thing she was stylin' though.
Tetherball anyone? 1982 anyone??
Too cute...
"
"Look at that biggest tractor, Mommy! I want to drive on it!" "Uh, how about a picture instead, Evan?" "Yeah, that would be really, really cool!!"
This dinosaur horse was our favorite of the historic horses that come out in Ogden for the 24th of July, because it could chomp on us!
The biggest flowers ever!
He has the best aunties...
My fabulous old roommate gave this onesie to Lilly, and it's pretty much my favorite thing that I have ever owned

Go Aggies. They are #1, in case you can't tell :) 


The epitomy of summer fun

Part 3 of summer fun includes That Famous Preston Night Rodeo-stay tuned!

Summer Fun

 After Nanny Stacey left, we had a few weeks of being just us before we trekked off to UT/ID for our annual summer trip. It was already SO hot in June, so we spent a lot of time like this.
 And mostly like this.
 Lilly hardly ever poops (weird, I know, but apparently it's fine), but when she does, watch out!
 She can't ever play alone. I guess it's better than him not liking her...
 "Mom! What's with all the pink?!"
 Staging my own photo shoot :)
 Entertainment at Kmart. Yep, that's how exciting our town is.
 Always cuddle in the morning.
 Her first shots at 2 months; guess they didn't seem to bother her?!
 A real true Aggie at heart
Though I'm really crossing my fingers he chooses the basketball path. He's too sweet for football!
 Packing for our trip. Why do kids need so much stuff?!
 Evan came up with the idea to put stickers all over his mouth all by himself. It worked out really well for everyone!
 Watching the fire on the hill in Fillmore entertained us for about an hour of our long drive. (I hope you have stopped burning up, Utah!)
 Trayson thought Lilly was very cute
 Lilly meeting her only Great-Grandma. She was perfect and smiled the whole time for Gram B.
 My 4th of July babies!! (I really love me some 4th of the July)
Sparklers at the Fuller home
 Beautiful huge moon in Preston
 Lilly was excited to chat with Grandma Fuller and tell her all about life since she had seen her last.
 Evan and Daddy at the 4th of July parade. Yay parades!! That's all I asked for my 4th of July, was a parade. And I got one!
 Baby slept through the whole parade. She will learn to love them someday.
 Trying on mommy's new sunglasses
 Silly baby
 So sweet when they're sleeping...
 Have you seen anything more adorable than daddy-daughter tummy time?! I mean, come on.
 We got to go to our favorite mountain spot! Played in the river, fished, roasted hot dogs. One of the best nights of our trip, for sure. We miss crisp mountain air!!
 I'm sure Lilly loved the outdoors, too. It was so peaceful to her, she slept the whole time :)
 Nate got to go fishing with his Dad (he looks forward to this every summer), and he caught quite the haul! I guess he has to make up for the rest of the year of no fishing in one day.
Leaving Preston to head to North Ogden for some more fun, Evan was pretty well done with being in the car. And this was only the beginning...

Part 2 of our summer fun coming soon!
