carter is 5 Months..

Hello Utah

Leaving Missouri was a weird feeling! I can't believe our two years was done, and I can't believe how much we grew to love that little place! It was bitter sweet to leave, but we definately had a harder time than we thought!

But it was extremely nice to arrive to eager and willing family to help us get back settled in the farm house! We got a nice big banner hung for us and it made us excited to be home close to family and cousins!

Georges adjustment was harder for him than I imagined. He kept saying he was ready to go back home, to go to missouri, and was talking about all his friends he left behind constantly. I did not realize how much kids rely on their NORMAL life. It was an adjustment but he has come to love UTAH and this home too!

I feel like since we got to Utah life has been so CRAZY! Jed has been busy busy studying for boards, taking boards, and what not and is now doing a pediatric rotation which has given him a little more flexibility! We have also crammed in lots of fun, from horse rides, bbqs, family dinners, family time, camping, disneyland, yard work, planting, playing, building a sand box, etc. But because I am so behind on blogging I am going to give you a sneak peak of it all!

Um, carter is adorable! He is such a good baby, and is such a joy to have around! He is seriously so chubby and I just want to kiss his Chubby Cheeks all day! He coos, giggles, grabs your hair, your face, gives big sloppy kisses, and is such a fun baby! I tell Jed all the time I want to freeze him at this age, i just can't seem to get enough :)

Right when we got to utah our good friends the robertsons, stopped by. It made George feel right back at home with his bestie by his side.... They even had some time for some lovin' in the car,

AND some pony rides together.. their friendship was adorable! He misses Saylor and makes sure to tell me all the time!

Carter went on his first horse ride at 4 months... and has been on a few since then! He loved it and fell right to sleep!

We went camping as our little family and it was beautiful! It was such a blast to be together and george loved it so much! He bawled when we took the tent down, and asks daily to go camping again!

George with his buddy Mckray! we were glad they came along for the campout!

The 3 boys, and the best picture I could get! :)

Our family of 4

our family of 5- with Ginger. She was not looking at the camera, just at us :)

I was loving the green everywhere and had to take some pictures and got some cute ones of Carter!

And this was all i got of George, but nonetheless, it shows his fun, outgoing personality! We love little George and laugh all the time at how smart he is getting and the funny things he says! It is so funny hearing what comes out of his mouth. I love his blonde hair, blue eyes, and fun imagination.

I love Carters chubby feet and the way he curls his toes when I talk to him he gets so excited, I had to take a picture!

George got to ride the toddler saddle for the first time! He did great and held on like a champ.. he also did a great job and singing every single song he knew the whole way!

our family in the tent!

The sandbox I made for George! Best thing ever.... First thing every morning he does is run out and start playing in there! Carter loves it to, I just have to put him in the bumbo so he does not eat all the sand!

oh yea, We got a kitten... I think his name is crumbles, but if you ask george it changes every day! Sometimes it is woody, sometimes it is buzz! Nonetheless, he loves his kitty, alittle too much most of the time!

Some family get togethers... Love all the babies!

These four Babies were all born within a month of eachother! they are all my sisters babies! We have had so much fun with these babes!

The two CHUBS! they are too much fun! james, and carter

lots of yardwork, lots of fun!

you sick of us yet? Well there is more to come another day when i get alittle more time!

Goodbye Kirksville-

Nothing is in the right order so follow the jumbled mess cause I don't want to switch it all around!

Man The whole moving this crept up on us soo dang fast! It was really sad to have to leave so soon before everybody else did, but we were lucky enough to soak up those last few minutes with everyone before we headed on our way! It was a long drive, but we made it! We sold our white car right before we left so it made it possible to travel all together... Here is our mother load!

Luckily we got to get in our lasts and our firsts right before we left! After some of our besties came to help us out the morning we left we headed to Pancake City for a FIRST! We ate some breakfast with some of our best friends and were on our way! thanks for coming to breakfast with us and thanks so much for all the help. I was super embarrassed that some of my friends helped clean my house and get me out of there, but I am so glad I had close enough friends to understand why my oven looked yucky! HA But for reals, you guys became like a family to us. We had no idea how badly we would miss you guys. Thanks for being the best friends and neighbors we could ask for!

Goodbye to my cute Girl friends!!

And goodbye to the boys!

And goodbye to georges buds!

This is out of order but 2 days before we headed out I threw a shower with some friends for my dear friend Lisa! IT was such a blast, and was perfect timing cause I got to say goodbye to alot of the other gals who I have come to love so much! Lisa we love little Paige, and are so glad you made it back before we all had to head out!

Some of the gals at the Shower!

The Spread

We also had an awesome little get together with our friends at the Shurtz home! Nat made the coolest slideshow of all of us and the memories we have had. I loved it so much and it made me realize what we have been through, how much we have grown, and how lucky we were to have each other!

Here are the recent babies, BIG: CARTER< MEDIUM:PAIGE

And some of the gals holding the babes!
