Summer in Utah

Danger boy

A few Sundays ago we had a scary miracle happen at our house. I was next door preparing for a camp meeting and Brent was here with our 3 boys getting them ready to eat dinner. He left Gavin (7) to keep an eye on Graham (7months) downstairs in our kitchen while he went up to get our 2 year old. What I heard from next door sounded like a car crash and then I heard my baby crying so I dropped everything and ran over. This is what I saw.



Our 60+ lb pot rack had randomly fall from the ceiling. Notice the blue bumbo? That is where Graham was sitting.



He earned his middle name that day. We figured he has a guardian angel. There is no other way he could have escaped sitting directly beneath that rack and 15 heavy stainless steel pots that went flying through the kitchen. I have got several pans that got dents and one of my big heavy duty mixing bowls was reduced to 20 pieces, but we still have a Graham Danger with only 2 little bumps. Lesson learned, never name your kid Graham!

Dont look at the cake, Gage got a hold of it before the party.

Happy 7th Birthday to my sweet boy Gavin!
What can I say about Gavin: At least 10 things!!
1} We are so glad he is our oldest! He has never once hit or pushed Gage who torments him constantly. He always talks so sweet to both his brothers. And he loves to make them laugh
2} He is a great student, works hard at school to get good grades. His teacher Mrs. Fredette loves him!
3} He is such a good helper ALWAYS! He aims to please and does his best.
4} He makes us laugh. He makes up jokes and the have no punch lines. Still learning. :0
5} He is a fact collector. He loves watching anything National Geographic or reading books about animals or places, then he tells us ALL about it.
6} Huge imagination. He will describe one scenario in detail for about 10 minutes and then go off on another tangent for 20 minutes, all from his own mind. I guess that makes him a talker too.
7} He always compliments when he notices something different
8} He is a good friend.
9} He LOVES to swim. He is such a fish, loves the water and wants to be in it all the time.
10} He has a tender heart. Always has. It can make him emotional and it can make him irrational, but it makes him my son. He has always had a sweetness and gentleness. And I am beyond happy he surprised us and made us parents 7 years ago!

Christmas in the Carolinas

Thanks to the Frampton's and Johnson's in North Carolina, we had the BEST Christmas EVER!!

Gage turns 2

I know this pic is on my sidebar too, but it is too small. You don't get the true effect of Gage in that small pic. This kid has got a larger than life personality and voice, with a good dose of mischievous. And I LOVE this photo cause you can see it if you look close. He is gets excited about anything. And freaks out at nothing. You know where he is in the house by his constant squeals of joy or despair and this boy is so LOUD. What a roller coaster! Gage is wearing mismatched, over sized shoes, always. If I am napping, I will wake to him softly touching my face and giving kisses. He beats on his big brother, loves on his little brother. He just started climbing the pool table, now he can get his wagon up there with him too? How? Leaves random things from the fridge all over the house. He is such a joy when he is happy and such a sausage when he is not. Not sure how I feel about this one turning 2. Love him to bits though. With him, I want to forget house work and play all day... and then I want to cuddle up and have a very long nap!

And here are recent pics of our Graham Danger!

Not sure why my boys get so HUGE so fast, but it is insane. This kid has got to weigh at least 16 lbs and he is barely coming on 3 months! He is a sweet, gooey tub of love! I could not ask for a better baby! He falls asleep at 8,does not want to be held and wakes at 6 to eat and then goes back to sleep until 8:30. And the rest of the day he just smiles at the ceiling fan. Maybe he is intimidated by his middle name?

And here are recent pics of our Graham Danger

New Baby.. 3months later!

Yea, I am really on top of posting pics of our new addition Graham, It has been CRAZY!

Graham Danger Davis

I know I have not updated in a while, but I had to share pictures with anyone who has not seen our newest addition. Graham Danger Davis born September 8, 2010 at 1:14 pm weighing 9 lbs 5 oz and measuring 23 inches long. He's here!! Our third boy, we love him! He's so super sweet!

Dirty thirties?

Yes, today I turned 30!?! I had a great weekend with Brent, he took me to the Roller Derby!! If you have never gone, GO! We had a blast, we were laughing are heads off at all the hefty girls in tu tu's beating each other down. I loved it, so much better than a movie! He gets bonus points for creativity! Love him!

I guess I never really understood what dirty thirties might have meant until I woke up this morning to Gage who has had a stomach bug the last few days and I will spare you the details, but his stomach bug hit with a vengeance this morning! I thought this is what dirty thirties will mean for me with expecting my 3rd baby, especially if this is another boy!! 3 loads of laundry and 2 baths later, we were all good. Is this what it all means? Thanks all for the bday wishes!

Prego!

Yep that's me! #3 on the way in September!! Can't wait to be done feeling sick!!

A new look for a new year!

Got some family pics thanks to Angie! Had some camera difficulties, but she had a spare, thank goodness! I was NOT leaving without some pictures, the boys looked too cute.

Sorry

So apparently we have gone missing. Sorry to those that regularly check our blog, we have not made posts or added pictures in forever! We will remedy that very soon, we don't want to loose any fans! I guess running 2 businesses and 2 kids makes for not much fun! Keep posted, we will too.

Nothing New

We are just enjoying our kids and swimming... a lot. But it really has gotten hot yet. We have been surviving with no A/C in our car, it is not great, but we are surviving. Business keeps on growing. Kids keep us laughing. We are just enjoying our lives. Hope you all are too!

He likes it

I never doubted this kid liked to eat.
