We have been having the greatest summer. Im sorry all you working women. I love not working and just being a mom! It is all I have ever wanted to do, and it is awesome. Be jealous. Lucy is so dang cute. Here is what we have been up to.... Swimming at Auntie Co-Co's pool! We went with my sisters, and of course Coleen, and she took all of the pictures, we need to get more of her! We always have so much fun swimmin! Lucy is loving the water, and just learned how to splash! So fun! The only downer- I got stung 4 times on my foot by bees! Ah! If it didnt' itch so bad it wouldn't be so bad. I decided that would be the worst way to die- itching to death. Also on July 23rd we went to the Kenny Chesney concert with Amy & Luke! So fun! Amy and I both forgot our cameras so we had to make due with Tyler's cell phone. It was so HOT and we were so so glad when the sun finally went down. Kenny was awesome though! Loved it! Lucy is a professional sitter now! She is seriously ge...

Well kids. The wait is finally over. Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince has finally hit theatres world wide. Ah. The Bliss. Due to the fact that we are with child now, we had to miss the excitement and thrill of the midnight showing, but went again for the reserved seats at the 8:45 showing on July 15th to the best movie ever! Now I have heard many different views, and yes, I too wished that there were more Harry and Ginny scenes, but overall, this was my favorite movie yet! They rushed, and took out, too many scenes as always, and this time added in some random scene, but it was still my favorite! Hermione is getting cuter, Ginny is almost taller than Harry!, and Ron. OH Ron. He is just dashing. =) I think one of my favorite parts is of him on the love potion. I can't wait for movie #7. Ahhh!! Today I got to go swimming up at Layton Surf n' Swim! Lucy was able to swim with both Grandma Carrie, and Grandma Bonnie, and Aunt Amy, and cousin Blake, and Aunt Jessi! The Crosland...

We had cheer camp this week! Our girls did SO great! They took first in their home pom routine (video on the bottom... im an awesome filmer.), first in their 'xtreme routine', second in the cheer, first overall 'camp champs', and got the Leadership award. (All the other squads vote on if they weren't on their squad, who's squad would they like to be on.) So proud. Lucy was a champ. Just chilled on the blanket in the shade all day! It was a good time, but glad its over! =) Most of the girls on the first day! Grandma and Lucy in her 'cheer' shirt! (Thanks Aunt Carrie!) Lucy and the top banana! The last day with all of their trophies. I think we're missing like 4 girls though here! Their pom routine!

Miss Lucy Jane is now about 4 1/2 months old! Oh she is getting too big too fast! We went to the doctor today, and i must say, I have the best baby ever. I had my mom there for moral support again, and she got her shots and didnt' even cry! She just kind of wimpered and I picked her up, and then she just turned and smiled at the nurses again! I was in shock. She is such a good girl. This past week she rolled from her tummy to her back, and got her ears pierced. She has also started sleeping through the night this week! I love it! Here's the stat's: Weight- 14 lbs 12 oz (60th percentile) Height- 23 inches (5th percentile) Head (5th percentile) So again. Short and Fat. Love her!

We had an awesome 4th this year! We hadn't been in Kaysville for the 4th of July for the last 2 years, so it was SO good to be there! Despite what anyone says... Kaysville's 4th of July festivities are the best out there! Tyler didn't have to work on friday either, so we drove up to K-town thursday night watched SYTYCD (Sad to see Karla go!), and then hung out all day on the Friday with Porter, Erika, and Casey and Nichole. We went to lunch, and shopped, and spontaneously we got Lucy's ears pierced! Yes- Call me a 'baby torturer' if you will, but it was spur of the moment, and im glad we did it! It was so easy and she seriously cried for like 3 minutes- thats it. And they haven't bothered her since! And they are SO cute! We then enjoyed the Eaglewood fireworks with our friends... (You have to watch the video of Lucy at the bottom of the post! She was just dancing and laughing for forever!) Quinn and Heidi! Porter, and Erika and us Nichole and Casey, and Jon ...

Lucy Pie on the boat. Isn't she SO cute? 4 months! Sorry I am so behind! I kinda suck at blogging lately.. so this will be a long mainly pointless and uneventful post. Enjoy. =) I have to touch on my two tv shows. I literally watch 2 tv shows and that is it. I never ever watch tv anymore.... truly. honestly. ONLY 2! So as much as I feel like this tv obsessed person, I really am not. just about my shows... So you think you can dance... LOVE it. Just watched it. So far this season we have the bum dance, alien dance, chain dance, romeo and juliet, etc..... all of the choreographers are so amazing. I like... Randi, Jason, Kayla, ah philip's partner... just forgot her name..., melissa, etc... It just brings so much joy to my life. =) Batchelorette. I am sick that wes is still there. That's all I have to say. Stupid jillian. Other than Tv.. I am not a total fan of the mornings.. as many of you know.. but I can honestly say I am starting to like them more and more. The getting up ...

SO we're home from Powell. It was marvelous! I didnt' think I took a lot of pictures at all... but apparantly I took plenty. Im stil waiting to get all of the good pictures from LUKE. (My brother in law who had his new camera glued to him the whole time. we got some classic pictures/footage!) The theme this year was i.gov (gratitude, ownership, and virtue.) Tyler's father just got called to be a Bishop the night before we left for our trip, and was ordained this Sunday in the University of Utah Singles 13th ward! Jeff is amazing. I'll have a fathers day post soon. Im so behind. Enjoy the pics. Where we parked this year! Cute Sandy and Tyler Cute Lucy. She really did SO well. Only was fussy one day, and that was the hottest day. So i am so glad! She is my angel baby! She now plays with her toes and toys! It's so cute. My beautiful daughter, LUCY and her cute cousin Macey! The parents/kids Love this picture. Just loving the pool. Aren't those hats awesome? Thanks...
