September Sunshine

Aaaahhh Lazy Labor Day
It was so nice to sleep in as a family on Labor Day. Somehow, the boys ended up snuggled in our bed in the morning and they were so cute. I just had to climb out of bed and snap some photos!

Dad's Birthday
If you ask Shaden who his best buddy is... he just might say "Papa!" He sure loves him and Papa loves his little buddy! We had a nice time kickin it in the backyard with yummy pie... celebrating Dad's Birthday! We love you Dad! Happy Birthday!

Gardner Village
It was the MOST BEAUTIFUL September day. Dad took us all out to the Olive Garden for lunch (after picking up Shaden some food at Wendy's.) Then we went and hung out at Gardner Village. Shaden and Papa like to see the animals, and we all like to mozy around. It's a fun place to be. Stockton enjoyed it too! My dad had him smiling SOOO big! What a cutie.
It was a great day!

Stockton's Blessing Day
What a beautiful baby, what a beautiful blessing, what a beautiful day! Stockton was so good and happy all day. He looked darling in his outfit made by Grandma Carol. Bryan gave him a really nice blessing. Stock is such a little miracle sent straight from Heaven and we love him so much!
Our Family on Blessing Day
Stockton with Grandpa and Grandma Lewis & Grandpa and Grandma Colemere

We had lots of guests. We have a wonderful family and great friends! We couldn't ask for more!

It was a busy day and the boys were great. At the end of the day, Shaden survived with only one minor injury under the eye. Never the less, they were wiped out after such a long day.
Sweet Dreams little ones!



My Birthday
What? 27? NO!!! I'm feeling old. It really dawned on me, how old I am getting when I went to a High School football game and realized that I'm 10 years older than them... bummer!
I had a great birthday, though. We went to Olive Garden (my favorite!) We had a good time. Shaden told me "Happy Birbday, Mommy" all day and Bryan brought home beautiful flowers. I also received lots of thoughtful gifts and it was a happy day! Thanks everyone!

Camo Cutie
What better day to try on the new camo than September 11th?! I felt blessed that day. Stockton is just one of the many reasons why.

Who Needs Toys When You Have a Box?!!!
A simple piece of cardboard.... endless hours of fun!

Let the Sound from the Speakers Move through your Sneakers.... or bare feet
Check out some of Shaden's sweet moves. This kid LOVES to dance! His face tells it all!

Stockton's Smile

This little baby truly brightens my day, EVERY DAY! He is such a smiley baby. He smiles at me in the middle of the night to remind me that 2 and 4 am feedings are not so bad. He smiles at me when I'm changing his little diapers and trying to get the stains out of his clothes. He smiles at me as soon as I talk to him. He smiles at me when I'm not talking to him. He smiles at his big brother all the time... especially when big brother says, "Doon Morin Tockton Tad Boner!" (Good Morning Stockton Chad Colemere!) STOCKTON IS ALWAYS SMILING! I love him so much and I'm thankful that he reminds me with a smile, just how lucky I am! I love my little Stocky!

August Rush

Okay, so I know that "August Rush" is the name of a movie... but seriously, August flew by! Here's what we were up to!


Heber Valley Stampede
We used to go to the Heber Rodeo every year and visit my Great Grandma. My parents brought the tradition back this year to celebrate our anniversary, as well as Spencer and Jodie's!


Cousins
Stockton is the youngest of 4 cousins on the Colemere side who will be the same age in school! Brooklyn is the oldest, followed by Conner and Ava (on her blessing day) So cute!


County Fair
The County Fair is right by my mom and dad's house, so we all went over and had tons of fun. Shaden loved playing with Brooklyn and Graci! He loved riding the ponies, looking at animals and riding the carnival rides!


Brothers
A mom can't help putting on a photo shoot when her two boys look so sweet in their baseball uniforms. They truly love each other too!


Bear Lake
Scot and Caryn invited us to their cabin in Bear Lake. We used to go all the time when I was little. I absolutely love it there and we had so much fun!

Shaden totally fell in love with the beach. Nothing like soft sand, seashells and the waves to complete the summer! Spencer burried him from the waste down and he loved it! Later we buried Spencer too!

We all enjoyed "Mable" the tube! Scot was very nice to me (the new mama) and Shaden, but brutal to the others. We had an absolute blast! Do you think I should keep the sweet goggles?

Bryan LOVES to wakeboard and he's pretty dang good at it. I just like watching his big muscles!:) My Dad loves to ski and is famous for his "Lewie" pose. Jayna gave it a shot as well!

Caryn has two dogs... I mean kids. I'm pretty sure they are part human!

I love the blue blue water and just being in Bear Lake. Maybe one day, we'll be rich enough for our own cabin... until then... THANKS FOR SHARING, SCOT AND CARYN! The Lewie's had a blast!


Bryan's 28th Birthday!!!
Bryan turned 28! I love him a lot and we're so thankful for his hard work.
Bryan was nice enough to entertain Shaden on his birthday! We went to the dinosaur museum. We had a great time but Shaden has had nightmares ever since. Maybe because of the shark... we're not quite sure! Also, notice the picture of Shaden with the caveman on the wall!(He thinks it's Jesus!)


Stockton's Shots (poor little guy)
Stock had his 2 month appointment. He had shots in both legs and was absolutely miserable all day! I felt so bad because he is usually so calm and happy! I held him most of the day... my little buddy!
He weighed 11 lb 2 oz and is 23 1/2 inches tall! (which averages out to be in the 60th percentile)

Sprinkler System and a Birthday Party!!!
So we finally tore up our pretty yard to put in a Sprinkler System! (Woo Hoo, it's about time!)
Bryan worked so hard and we had LOTS of help from family. The sprinkler's were followed by a party for Bryan!


"Happy Birbday to Daddy, Happy Birbday to you!"
Shaden came out into the Living Room that night and told Bryan he had a song for him. He sat at the piano and played and sang "Happy Birthday!" It was so stinkin funny because he was so serious! I really think it was one of the cutest things I have ever seen!

"Me Do It! Me Do It!!!"

Shaden is 2 1/2... which means that he HAS TO DO EVERYTHING HIMSELF! He decided to wear his "Buzz" vest (thanks Leah and Carter) the other day but insisted that I not help him! Every time I tried, I was refused with a "Me do it!"
It took awhile, but in the end it was worth it!


Later that night, I said, "Shae! Go get your jammies on!" This was the result! Don't worry that he forgot to take his shirt off, that it's on backwards or that both his legs are in one hole! He was so proud! I love my funny boy!
