summer...:)

I can't believe it's the end of July already. This summer has gone by way too fast. I'm really not ready for it to end. Wednesday we went up to mom and dad's and took lots of very cute pictures. We even took a new family picture. I will have to put some up at their house because they are all on dad's computer. After pictures we went to dinner with the family and then sent Kailye to her grandma's for a sleep over. She was so excited. Michael and I went and saw The Dark Night also. It was very good, I really liked it a lot. It definitely lived up to the hype it's produced. When we got home Wednesday night we brought Marley inside. We haven't really had her inside that much since Keija was born, but I want her to be used to her. By the end of the night Marley was right by her side with her head resting on her bouncer.Thursday was Pioneer Day so Michael didn't have to work. He decided to go golfing with Adam. So Kari and I took our kids and went to dad's to choose a picture to have printed of the girls in their tutu's and to look at all of them. They were so cute. There were a lot of pictures to look at so we spent quite a while there. We sat and talked and played with all the kids. Parks kept bringing Jayci toys to play with. After running a few errands we went to Aunt Val's house to see Sarah and her kids. They are here visiting from Seattle for a while. Kailye had lots of fun playing with Jaxson, Liama and Emmi in the sprinklers. Then we headed up to Salt lake to go swimming and hang out with the family. Kari was showing KK how to jump into the pool crazy. It was cute to watch kk trying.We all had fun playing in the water. Keija loves the pool. I tried to get Michael to get a picture of her while she was in the water but I left my camera in the car while she was in the pool. She was so alert and so cute just looking around.I think this picture of Jayci is so cute. We headed back to Kari and Adam's after swimming and had pizza and did fireworks. Kailye loves fireworks so she was very excited. She was playing with Adam and Uncle David on the couch and she got a little stuck. We will be sad when David heads back to Tennessee in a few weeks. He has been here for about a year now and Kailye loves seeing him and talking to him.We started Keija on a routine yesterday also. She thought she was starving last night for about an hour but she lived and fell right to sleep after she ate. I of course did not go to sleep though. I did Kari's hair instead. It took a while longer than I was thinking for her hair to process though so we were there until about 3...oops. I fed Keija again when we got home and she went right to sleep again.

Kailye and I were lazy this morning and just hung out and watched movies. Then Kk decided she wanted to go visit grandma Gordon so went called and headed up there. We went swimming and Kailye had so much fun. She recently discovered she really can swim without her life vest on so she did for a while today. Keija was great in the pool again but I forgot her sun hat so she was only in for a minute before I handed her off to grandma to hold. Kailye loves going up to see her Grandma, pool or no pool. Keija was talking to grandma. Kari, she figured out how to jump in all crazy.We just hung out at home the rest of the afternoon and were really very lazy. Tonight I put Keija in bed after Kailye went to bed and she fell right to sleep again. She is screaming now but it lasted a while...she's actually been screaming for an hour and Kailye is still asleep:) It's going to be a few long nights a head until she gets used to sleeping in her bed.
