June-July Happenings

ONE YEAR!!
We can't believe it!
This is her party invitation Brock made:

The weekend of June 26th was a pretty big one! It was Kaelyn’s first birthday and my best friend Amber’s wedding. We went down a little bit early so we could get Kaelyn’s one year pictures taken. I’ll post them when we get them! We celebrated Kaelyn’s birthday one day early, on Friday. We all went to Toy Story 3 at the Drive In. Great movie! Kaelyn (actually everyone BUT Kaelyn) opened her presents and we had some crumbly cake. It was hot, there was a bad experience with the rude owners of the drive in, and my cake didn’t turn out but we still had so much fun! Kaelyn pooped out about 10 minutes into the movie, which was probably a good thing!

Saturday was Amber’s wedding. I’m so glad we were able to be there. It was an awesome experience. I love going back to sealings because, let’s face it, most of us don’t remember much from our big day! Anyway, there were some great messages given and it was just so neat. Congratulations Amber! You looked beautiful.

Poor Kaelyn has some troubles with her BM’s, so Brock thought we should try putting her on the toilet while she’s at work. He thought maybe it would make it easier on her and potty train her at the same time. I just had to laugh at that! We gave it a try anyway. I think she was too distracted with her surroundings to try much. Especially that roll of toilet paper. I think babies are attracted to those! She’s unraveled one too many!
Idaho Falls puts on a really great show for the 4th of July. Also, because it is funded by a Mormon (Frank Vandersloot, owner of Melaleuca) he requested the show be on the 3rd this year. I think the majority of the state was okay with that! This show brings some pretty big crowds, so we decided to watch it from a dirt road out of the city. It actually ended up being a great spot. The music that goes with the show is broadcast over a local radio station, so it was just like we were there, except that we were in the warmth of our car and without the nuisance of mosquitoes! We were sad that we couldn’t be in Morgan for the big 4th party, but we actually had a good little party of our own!

This is a typical day for Kaelyn and I. Especially since we don’t have AC, we need to get in the water to cool down (actually I just get my toes wet, but it helps!). Kaelyn usually plays in the water for approximately 30 seconds before she’s done. And that’s only her hands and toes getting wet. We’re working on that though! And look at Kaelyn! She is totally in her element when she’s dressed up all girly. You can just tell she loves it. So funny!
