Sheena's wedding...

Okay, here are a TON of pictures, but I wanted to post them for family, etc to see, so bear with me here folks! Anyway, we had a great weekend! My sister, Sheena, got married on Friday, Sept 25. We had a bunch of family come in from out of state, so it was so fun to see everyone! We definitely missed those who weren't able to make it though! Unfortunately, I didn't get a lot of pictures from the wedding day of things like the luncheon, cake etc, because I was so busy putting things together for it!


Jordan, Jordan, Jerry, Marsha, Brooks, Jordain...

Aunt Jeri/Tweets and Maura

My mom's brother, Jerry and my dad's sister, Marsha...



He will not let me take his picture...every time I pull out the camera, he runs away...

Jordan, Jerry, Jordan

Grandma (dad's mom) and her husband Merlin...



The luncheon followed the wedding and was at the Old Rock Church in Providence. It turned out great and everyone loved the centerpieces that I put together! After the luncheon, we all cleaned up everything, went home and changed and then my Aunt Denise (dad's sister) came by on her way to my grandma's...it was great to see her, as it had been 7 years since I last saw her! After Denise left, most of our family went up to the high school so the twins could run and everyone else played tennis, football, etc. Bridger ran about a mile...crazy kid, he is so strong! After that, we got yummy Aggie ice cream!!! The following day, we went to Willard Bay and hung out on the beach and went boating. There was a pretty good sized group of us...My mom, dad, Jordan, Jordan, Whitney, Dani, me, Josh, Bridger and Kenna, as well as my Aunt Marsha, Uncle Danny, cousin Brooks and his wife Jordain, Uncle Jerry, Aunt Jeri, and cousin Maura Once again, I didn't get as many pictures of everyone as I hoped. It was a fun day and we enjoyed relaxing! I love the day after the wedding when it's not your wedding, becuase you get to chill, and enjoy all the company!



Kenna loved rubbing her feet in the sand!




After Willard Bay, we headed back to my parents'/Sheena's places and got cleaned up, had a sitter for the kids and went to dinner at Maddox...yummy! Everyone went home on Sunday. It was an awesome weekend, so great to see everyone and the wedding was fabulous!

Oh and one thing I wish I had a picture of was everyone with duplicate names...apparently we do not branch out in the name department in my family...we had 3 Jordan/Jordains, 2 Joshs, 2 Dani/Dannys, and 2 Jerry/Jeris...I wish I had a picture of all of them together...crazy! Jordan, Jordan, Jordain, Josh, Josh, Dani, Danny, Jerry, Jeri...lol.

Kenna's 9 months...

This happy girl was so excited because she sat herself up for the first time on Sept. 17th...this is how she was when I went in to get her in the morning! Go Kenna...isn't she so cute?!

My sweet baby girl is 9 months! She went to the doctor on the 14th for her well child visit. Here are her stats:
Weight: 18 pounds 8 ounces...45th percentile
Length: 29 inches...92nd percentile
Okay, her weight jumped a bit in percentile, but her height sky rocketed! Last time she was about 36 or so in the percentiles, and now she's way at the top! I can tell that she is getting tall, but didn't realize just how tall! Clothes are tricky to buy for her, because according to weight and her frame size, she fits into 6-9 month clothes (some of those are even to big for the weight) but needs at least 9-12 month clothes for her height. I bought her a few things for the winter and the pants in 9-12 and 12-18 months fit her decent in the length but are way too big every where else. So, I think she is going to be tall and skinny, but we'll see! Also, a lot of people think she is younger than she is...I've had a lot of people say things like, "Is she 4 or 5 months old?" When I tell them she is 9 months, they say things like "Wow, she is tiny!". Anyway, it may seem weird, but I like that she's small...it's cute because I am used to Bridger who is so big (he'll be 4 in November and now wearing 6 in shirts and 5 in pants!). Our sweet little girl is growing and doing great!

Bridger's puppy...


Okay, Bridger doesn't really have a puppy, but isn't this one soooo cute! This is Aunt Feli and Uncle Neil's puppy, Jimmy! He's absolutely adorable and Bridger is in love (and probably most of the rest of us are too)! He played with Jimmy the entire afternoon, running around letting Jimmy chase him, playing fetch and "doing a good job babysitting Jimmy!". We've been off and on about getting a dog our entire marriage and am still not sure when we'll get one, but Bridger loves dogs and asks Josh for a puppy just about every day! It was so cute watching Bridger with Jimmy, I think every little boy needs a dog...so we'll see some day!

And this is Kenna after Jimmy took a little nibble on her ear, she was fine, but it scared her! It took her a while to get over the trauma from it...funny little girl! Prior to the ear thing, she loved Jimmy and kept wanting to pet him too!


And finally, Kenna has a major sweet tooth (always has for that matter). She helped herself to Josh's dessert the same evening we were playing with the puppy. She was in heaven with the yummy dessert, until her hand started getting cold from the ice cream...she would cry, but then put her hand back for more, because she loved it too much!

Also, just need to add a couple of funny things Bridger has said lately:

*He was at Maverick with my mom, and as the cashier was ringing up the order, the cashier wasn't saying anything. Bridger turned to my mom and said, "Can this guy talk?" When the cashier started laughing and said something, Bridger said, "Good" because he was happy the cashier could talk!

*He apparently isn't a fan of primary, because yesterday I was asking him if he was excited for primary, this was his reply, "NO! I hate it, it's stupid! Don't make me go, I don't want to go." Hmm, isn't this kind of young to not be enjoying it already?!LOL I do think he likes it, but compares it to school and he loves school!

*Today he was talking to himself as he was clearing his dishes and this is what he said, "Holy crap, the Holy Ghost!" Oh my, we were cracking up over that one!

So cute...





Okay, first of all, this post is out of order of events...I decided to do it differently, and didn't want to delete these pictures and then upload them again...lol! Anyway, tomorrow Miss Kenna turns 9 months...I can't believe it! Time seriously goes so quickly, and the older I get the faster it seems to go! I love this little outfit of Kenna's and wanted to get a couple of pics of the sweet little cutie! She is getting so big! She is a major mama's girl...and will squirm and wiggle her way to get to me whenever possible! She is still not crawling, but kind of scoots on her tummy backward. She is on the verge of crawling though, she gets onto all fours sometimes and then rocks for a minute before going to her tummy. She also has top teeth that we can see, but haven't come through yet...I hope they don't take forever like the bottom ones! She also is doing quite well with a sippy cup and can also feed herself finger food very well. I'll try to update in the next day or two with the stats from her 9 month check up tomorrow!

Preschool...





Bridger had his first day of preschool on Tuesday, August 25. We endeded up enrolling him in a preschool, rather than do a joy school again this year. He really loves it already, I think it is going to be great! His teacher is wonderful...when I dropped him off yesterday, she said, "Good morning, Bridger! How are you handsome?" He thought that was great and just replied with an excited "Good!". He's learned what the letters P, S, and Q say and is working on writing his name. He told me he has not had to go to the time out chair yet, so that is good! He also told me there was a little girl in the boys' bathroom yesterday...lol! He's so cute and getting so big!

Four-wheelin'...


He loves sticking his tongue out in pictures...kind of reminds me of KISS or something, only not as creepy/gross!
A week ago this past Saturday (yep, I am behind again!) Josh took Bridger on a 4 wheeler ride up American Fork Canyon. They had a great time, and they both LOVE 4 wheeler rides! Anyway, just thought I would post some of the pics. One thing that Josh told me about, which I thought was cute, was that he was trying to get Bridger's shoes off so that he could play in the water. Apparently the shoe was hard to get off, so as Josh was pulling it all of a sudden came off and flew into the water. Josh told Bridger "Sorry, I was trying to keep your shoes dry." Bridger replied, "It's okay, Daddy. I know it was an accident and that you didn't mean to." So cute and so sweet! Love that little boy! Anyway, enjoy a couple of pics...maybe tomorrow I'll post pics from Bridger's first day of preschool, which yep, was last week! LOL
