I Go in Reverse Real Well




So, as you can see he has reverse down. No, I don't purposely put my child underneath his jumper to keep him under control. I was busily running around in the kitchen and in the laundry room folding laundry continually saying, "Hey! You're ok, you don't need me to entertain you every second! Just play for a few minutes longer and I'll come down!" Now this was in response to his general "I'm annoyed" sound--not crying, not in distress, just grunting and well, whining. Finally after a few minutes of it becoming even more incessant, and thinking "geez this kid needs some attention today!" I looked down to find him trapped. Thank you, thank you, yes, I'm applying for Utah Mother of the Year next month.

Tinnin' Up Prov Canyon











We have such great memories of heading up Providence Canyon on a Friday night to set up a quick campfire and throw on the tinfoil dinners (tinners). We decided the summer wouldn't be complete if we didn't go up at least once and sit around the fire enjoying the ubber-good saucy tinner and gorging ourselves on smores. So fun and only would have been better if Lance, Ty, Beth and Will could have been there. Luckily we had Brady and Jace Dart to beef up the group a bit. Colin seemed transfixed by the fire, but most happy when upside down. If I let hime he'd hang from his ankles twenty four seven--is that a sign that he's going to be a little bit of a daredevil? Maybe he'll like bungee jumping? Gee I wonder where he gets that from?
