kyler pics

remember the post about baby kyler when i promised to post more of the pictures i took??? i'm finally getting around to posting.

i bought a new camera 2 days before he was born so i really still have no idea how to use it. trying to take pictures of 3 kids is a bit of a challenge. kyler was basically asleep the whole week i was there except when we tried taking his pictures. he wouldn't stay asleep for anything. we luckily got a few cute ones.

my week in Vegas

I spent the past week in Vegas. I went down to help with new baby Kyler.

i met up with my friend lauri and her daughter at the children's museum

even though it was hot as blazes we went to the park 3x 

i held the little babe as much as possible

i also watched as much olympics as possible

it was such a great week. can't wait to go back.

Rocky Mountain Raceway

I'm getting good use of the pass of all passes this summer. When plans to go to 7 peaks didn't work out Michelle and Andrew, Nettie and JP, Tina, and I went to the raceway. I had pretty low expectations, but it was actually really entertaining. I might even go back.

babygrams

I have a new nephew. Chelsea and Jeff had baby Kyler last Sunday. Poor baby #3 is already not getting as many pictures, but I have been instagramming the little thing. He's the cutest little thing, and I just love newborns.

do these kids all look the same or what? definitely siblings.

karlee loves holding kyler

he loves the binky and if you don't give it to him, he finds his thumb. this was day #2 of life

all the kids at the hospital

more baby pics

going home from the hospital. so little in the carseat

i barely took any pics with the kid even though i got to hold him lots

i finally bought a new camera (hallelujah) and took some baby pics. i will post them soon. some turned out pretty cute.

turnberry roommate reunion

posts keep getting lost in my drafts folder...ugh


Karen came to town last week and gave us all the motivation to get together. It's crazy to believe this little group of Turnberry friends has turned into all of this. We were missing a couple of people. We had 9 kids in Sarah's house. Surprisingly everyone did pretty well. It was such a fun get together. I wish we did it more often.
