it's been a while...

We're still alive if you were wondering, I just never get around to doing these kinds of things anymore. But I did manage to add some pictures to facebook so I'll put a link of those at the bottom so you can check em' out.

We had a nice little Father's Day yesterday. After church we came home to hang out with the kids, and then put Kendalynn down for a nap around 2 and Logan down around 2:30 (and they didn't get up til 6!!!) so Tyler and I were able to get an awesome 2 hours nap, and then played games on our phones til the kids got up. Ha. Tyler really stressed that he didn't want anything, so instead I just made his favorite meal. Tyler kept offering to help with dinner, but I'm a firm believer on Father's Day he should get to sit on the couch and do nothing while I make dinner and clean it up. :)

Other than that, we're all doing swell. Tyler is working hard, and has had some bummer weeks where he's had some long days but of course he's a good sport about it. Kendalynn sure cracks us up all the time. Some of her new things are saying, "Logan...what's going on here?" and insisting that she put on her clothes herself (especially the ones with buttons in the front...she loooves to do the buttons!) and when you ask her "what did you do today?" she alllllways responds with "I played with animals!" then she'll list off the animals she played with... lions, panda bears, alligators... the usual household pets of course. Logan is doing good (when he's not grumpy...) and is getting pretty good at scooting around the house. No crawling...just scooting. He has his bottom two teeth, and I can't wait for them to be big enough so you can spot them in pictures when he smiles. I'm doing okay myself. Lately I've gotten into making these necklaces (I'll put pictures below) and I loooove them. I'd like to try and sell them (not online or anything...just by word of mouth I'd hope) to make a little money here and there for other projects. There are too many cute crafty things out there I want to do!

But that's enough talking, I'll just put the link to the pictures for now. But I'd like to share one more cute Kendalynn story first.

(at dinner last night all sitting at the table...)

Ty: Kendalynn, what did you do today?
Ken: I play animals!
Ty: No you didn't...you went to Nursery today! What did you do in Nursery?
Ken: I play Dawson! (a little boy in the ward)
Ty: Oh do you like Dawson?
Ken: Ya....Dawson.
Ty: Is he cute?
Ken: Ya...Dawson.
Ty: Who else did you play with?
Ken: Nathan!
Ty: Oh, do you like Nathan?
Ken: No...Dawson!
Ty: Is Nathan cute?
Ken: No...Dawson. I play with Dawson!

It was soo funny the way she kept smiling whenever she would talk about Dawson. We've never heard her talk about him before, it's always been about Nathan! (And of course to Nathan's defense, he is very cute and Kendalynn really does like to play with him.) It was just too cute!
