I am officially addicted to Stephanie Meyers! I LOVED the first 3 books of the Twilight series and I can't wait to read the 4th, it comes out Friday! YEAH!!! I am currently reading The Host. I was worried that it wouldn't meet my expectations because I couldn't put any of the Twilight books down, but it has! I still have about 200 pages to go and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I recommend it to anyone who loves a good read!
This past weekend an exchange student that my mom had a few years ago from Japan decided to come back for a visit. Her name is Yuri and she is great! She is sooooo nice and polite. All the babies LOVED her. :) We all spent the weekend just hanging out and relaxing. Saturday night we had some friends over and we sat around drinking, talking, and attempting to play Monopoly. LoL It was a lot of fun and I wish we could do it more Carie! Sunday Kendall got to go swimming with her friend Hailey. They wore eachother out and both passed out on the couch. :) Of course, we all took turns passing Keidan James around. He has gotten so big! It is so fun to make him smile. :) All in all it was a very nice weekend. I didn't get any very good pics, but here are a few anyways.
Kendall and Yuri
Me trying to get Keidan to smile!
Hailey giving Kendall a hug in the pool.
Kendall is obsessed with the garbage truck. LoL If it wakes her up she is terrified of it and won't go back to sleep, but this morning she was up early and when she heard it she ran to the window and looked out. Her expressions were so funny and she kept laughing and throwing her head back and bouncing up and down!!! It was hilarious and I am sooooo glad that I could finally catch her with pictures and she cooperated. LoL
I found a site last night called scrapblog.com and decided to try it out. For those of you who know me I am the least creative person in the world, but these are so EASY! I am just getting started so hopefully they get better, but here are a couple pages I did. My favorite is the Splish Splash one. Let me know what you think. I am going to go work on some more!
I realize that this is probably not a big deal to a lot of people, but I have been waiting almost a year and a half for the day that I could braid my daughter's hair and today was that day!!! I have been so bored putting her hair in pigtails everyday that today I just decided to play around. I was shocked when I got it into two braids!!! I hadn't realized how long her hair had gotten. I am posting some pics that I took, the braids aren't perfect, but they are pretty darn cute!

And a kind of side view!
Our 4th of July weekend was spent in St. George at my mom's house. We decided to watch the fireworks from up at the airport, and although they were pretty good, Kendall still wasn't very interested this year. When they got over we went back to the house and lit some off in the street and she seemed to enjoy those a little more. I also bought her some sparklers, but she didn't seem to care for those either! What a weirdo!!! LoL We spent the rest of the weekend just hanging out with baby Keidan and the rest of the family. Kendall always has a blast when we are there. She runs nonstop! She finally found my mom's tupperware cabinet so we spent a lot of time picking up tupperware. :)
