Big Time Bummer!!!

After many head "bonks," Carter has finally split his head open. Since he could crawl he has hit his head on anything even remotely in his way. This time it was the corner of our entertainment center and the result was 7 staples in the back of his head. He was very brave. Ryan went in with him and he said Carter was trying so hard not to cry. He had big tears rolling down his face but he didn't make a sound. He was such a big boy!!!

Returning to the scene of the crime!



Holding up the cars the doctor's office gave him for being so brave!!


He decided on green because Buzz Lightyear wears green.


All 7 staples. I couldn't get close enough and get him to hold still enough to get a clear picture!

Silly Kids!

So far we've had a very eventful summer! June started off with Ry's birthday quickly followed by our 5th Anniversary!! Then, sadly Ryan's sweet grandpa Lloyd passed away on June 29th. It was a bittersweet feeling because he was such a sweet man and a wonderful grandpa and great grandpa but he has had health problems for so long. We will miss him! The same week as grandpa's funeral we had the Applonie Family Getaway to Bear Lake which is always fun. Jenni and her kids were here and Carter LOVED playing with Chase! Ryan's mom has better pictures than we do on her blog (I have a link to it on this page). We have also been doing some remodeling (and by we I mean Ryan has been doing some remodeling)! We put in new flooring, new lighting, and painted. Next we have the backsplash and when that's done I'll post some pictures. Well that's all you ever needed to know about us! Have a great summer!!


Rylee has become more and more active everyday. We have child locks on our cupboards, but for some reason the lock on this one doesn't work!


She LOVES opening drawers and climbing in them!


We're not sure what Carter is doing here, Ryan found him this way after he put his jammies on!


Any of you who have ever been around Rylee know that she has gone from being a very sociable, enjoyable baby to being a DRAMA QUEEN. She only smiles on her terms, but she is VERY good at giving dirtly looks like this one!

You may not be able to tell by this picture, but Carter really does love going to Bear Lake. This trip he got to ride on a boat. He loved it until Uncle Mark fell off the tube and then he got scared. He also didn't like it when Ryan would fall while we was wake boarding. He is a very cautious, sweet little boy who worries when people could be hurt!
