My sleeping child....

Kael can sleep anywhere!!! It's crazy! He is always doing weird stuff in his sleep! For example: Drooling, smiling, full out laughing "happened in church today", sleeps in weird positions.... My kid is crazy!

I also had to take a picture of his new church outfit! I love my little man!

Halloween!!!!

This year Derek, Kael, and I took care of candy duty at Derek's parent's house. It was a whole lot of fun! Kael was dressed up as a chicken! I think he was sooo cute! We had a lot of fun!

Kael got his picture taken with a pug! "Oh" "That's just his Grampy!"

Kael really slept through the night!

Ok I know I said once that Kael slept through the night, but now it's true! Last night he slept from 11:30 to 5:30! That was just sleeping!!! So, this is him when we try to wake him up now! Haha! We found him like this one day and we had to take a picture. He really doesn't want to be woken up!

(Look at the hand gesture)

Beautiful

I just wanted to add the weather was beautiful in Johnson City, Tennessee! It was so green and it was constantly sprinkling rain! The leaves were changing color in front of my eyes and they were falling off the trees like rain drops! It was so new to me and I loved the beauty there!

Tennessee part 2

Because Kael and I flew standby we got to visit many new places.

We flew from St. George to Salt Lake City. Then we flew to Denver Colorado. Then we flew to Cincinnati Ohio. Then we flew to Tricities Tennesse where Brian "Shellianne's hubby" drove us to Johnson City which was 20 minutes away. Our plane left St. George at 6:45 and we got to Tennessee about 8 oclock... A little over 12 hours later.

The return trip wasn't as much flying, but it was a long trip! We left Tennessee at 4:30 Utah time and got to our house at 11 oclock that night. We flew to Cinncinatee to Phoenix, where my mom drove us home to Utah.

Kael was such a trooper! We had so many sweet people who helped us along our way on our trip! Everyone thought he was soooooo cute! They wanted to hold our bags and play with Kael and he smiled for nice lady even, which was his first responsive smile!! I'm so proud of him!

We are so grateful for a successful fun trip and we are happy to be home!

Tennessee

Kael and I had a great trip to Johnson City, Tennessee to visit my sister Shellianne and her family. She is now 36 weeks pregnant and had to get her wisdom teeth out... =0( She is a trooper though! Kael and I flew stand by so it took us a while to get there, but we made it safe and happy! We miss you guys! Thanks for letting us come visit!

Shots

Kael got his 2 month old shots yesterday and we didn't like it! There were a bunch of old men waiting to get their flu shots and they really wanted to make me feel guilty for having a little baby getting poked so many times... =0) They were nice though, and I made it through without crying! Whew! It was close though! Kael was upset for the rest of the day, but he made it and we are doing better today!

Swings

Swings have changed quite a bit since I was a baby.

Janice put a post of herself and her baby and they actually looked alike.... Kael is definately his own person.... The baby pictures on the right are of derek and me...

One thing is for sure, we all didn't have very much hair when we were born...

Happy to be home!

Kael was so happy to be home and see his daddy! They got to sleep in together! So cute!

Road trip part 2

Grandma Heaton had to multi-task! She enjoys it though!


Overall it was a really fun trip! Kael and I got to visit Great grandma and grandad! We visited with my mom's family, and we got to spend time with my sister Shannon and her kids. And Shannon and I got to go shopping! What more could a girl ask for? Thanks everyone!

Nater Tater walking

We got footage of Nathan walking!!! He is doing so good! Way to go!
Nathan's trick I learned while I was down there was to climb.... You can see by the nice goose egg on his head. Sorry Shannon I had to post it!!! =0)

Kael first road trip

My mom and I decided it was time for a trip to Phoenix for Kael to visit his great grandma Sapp and his Aunt Shannon and cousins. He did sooooo good on the road. We stopped twice each way. Kael was a trooper and we had a blast!

Kael's Blessing

Kael was blessed by his dad on September 7th 2008.













He was sooooo cute! Just wanted to say thanks to: Shannon for his adorable booties, Grandma Sapp for his beautiful blanket and hat, and Grandma Heaton for his cute outfit! Also thanks to those who helped with the get together after the blessing! Much appreciated! Thanks to all who were able to come, and thanks to all who weren't able to be there but were thinking of us! We love you all! Sorry we didn't get more pictures. We were kind of in a daze!

New tricks

Kael has discovered tummy time and he LOVES it! Derek made a classical music mix for him and we have a screen saver he stares at forever while listening to the music.

Kael also sleeps like his mom with his mouth open or tongue sticking out... I think it's cute! Derek says it's noisey, and it is! =0)

Kael's Baby Announcement

Here are some pictures that Derek's mom took of Kael for his baby announcement! We really loved them and hope you do too!

3 weeks today!!! Yeah!!!

He fell asleep on daddy's stomach! So cute!

This post is designated for Shell! Kael is officially 3 weeks old today! He is quickly growing! At his 2 week doctors apt. Kael weighed 8 lbs 3 oz! He is gaining weight fast! He loves to eat! Some of his tricks so far are smiling when he is sleeping and he doesn't even know he's doing it, and sleeping through the night! YES! He goes to bed around 11 and gets up at 4 or 5! He then goes back to sleep until 8 or 9! I consider that AMAZING! I am soooo grateful! He is such a good baby! He has his fussy moments, but we work through them! We think he is the best baby in the world and he is soooooo cute!

July 08

July has flown for Derek and I! I can't believe it, but only 3 more weeks till my due date! Derek's sister Rebecca and her family came to visit from Idaho. It was a fun weekend! We were able to go to "The Tournament of King's" with his family in Las Vegas and it was a blast! My niece Kelly got to sit by Derek and me and we sure had a great time! We miss you guys already!

Salt Lake City June 08

Derek and I were able to go to SLC for my grandpa Heaton's birthday. It was a great trip! We were able to visit so many family members as well as Derek's mission companion Spencer Wright and his wife Jill. They took us to Park City to teach us how to fly fish for the first time! It was a lot of fun! Derek was a pro! He caught 3 fish!

Happy 4th of July

Happy Fourth of July !!!
