It's official...I'm the WORST blogger ever!

Ok so I have no excuse other than I have a 2 year old who, is a 2 year old, and a 10 month old who wants to be a 2 year old! I am SO busy!!! These girls definitely keep me on my toes that's for sure! I love it! So I thought I'd just do a quick recap of our summer activities. Now that we're home in Utah I'm hoping I'll have a little more time to update this. So here we go...
Well Denver was so much fun! I really loved the city. We had lots of visitors...




when the weather was nice. The Weather in Denver was so crazy!! It rained almost every single day. And when I say rain, I mean crazy hail and wind and thunder and lightening! We spent lots of time with these guys...
And went to lots of these...
4th of July...
Ella learned how to do this...

And Eden turned into this...
Such a big girl! We took a few fun trips...
Utah


Bear Lake
We bought this beauty just for the trip! LOVE IT!!!

Christian dug a hole. LOVE HIM!!!


Disneyland

Where we met Mr. Incredible!
Mickey Mouse!!

Minnie Mouse!
Pooh Bear
Peter Pan(totally Eden's Favorite this trip)
Cinderella
Stitch
Handy Manny!!
Alice
Rosetta(one of Mommy's favorites of the trip!)
Tinkerbell! (Worth the wait!)
My mom rode THIS!!!!


And I ran my first Half Marathon!!!!!!
So glad you came with us mom!
We caught some waves at Huntington Beach

And after all that, we finally made it back to home! Only to be without Christian for 2 months while he does an extension selling in San Diego. It's only been 4 days and we are seriously missing him like crazy! We're hoping to have him come home every weekend so hopefully it won't be too hard!
We're very excited to be looking at new houses! We've sadly grown out of our little townhome! We're practically bursting at the seems! Which is one reason Christian is selling for an extra 2 months.
A quick update on the girls...for those of you that are still reading this NOVEL! Eden is 2 and is such a 2 year old some days! Most days she is s sweet angel that helps her mommy SO much, but then there are days where I have to put myself in timeout so I can get a minute of peace! She seriously DOES NOT STOP TALKING! I shouldn't be too surprised her being MY daughter! She is FULLY POTTY TRAINED!!!! YAY! She's such a big girl! SHe loves nursery and come home every week singing a new song to me or teaching me a new game that they've played! She loves to sing and dance and to have girl nights with mommy where we paint our nails and watch a movie!! I love having girls!!
Ella is getting SO big!!! She's 10 and a half months and just wants to be wherever Eden is, doing whatever Eden's doing! She LOVES her older sister! She also loves to drive her mommy crazy getting into EVERYTHING! She is such a busy baby. She is trying so hard to walk! She has taken a couple of steps but nothing too solid yet! She can say 'Hi' and she waves while she says it! It is the cutest thing ever! She also can say 'Dada' and Mama' and just recently she started saying 'Stef'! She is comprehending so much more now and getting so fun! She claps her hands, she sings and dances! We just love her so much!
Well sorry for this post being so long! I promise I won't ever go that long again without posting. Oh and I don't think I'm going to have my blog be private anymore. I always forget to check my private blogs and so I don't want people to forget about me! Even though I haven't posted in SO long!!! Well we're so glad to be back in Utah! We've missed our home and our families! I go to look at houses tomorrow so I"ll keep ya posted!!!

I am so jealous, it looks like you guys had so much fun this summer. We do need to hang out. Are you guys looking for houses down in Provo?

Christian and Brooke Bowers said...

The Glad Family said...

Looks like you guys had a great summer! You're girls are getting so big! Can't wait to see you guys. Are you coming down to visit anytime soon? Yeah, the apartments here have much to be desired but I'm only here until the 30th so I can handle them for a few weeks!

Paula said...

What a great update. I love and miss you all.

What a busy summer! I'm glad Denver went well. Have fun house hunting! Maybe you should come look up here in Logan... okay it might seem pointless to look for houses in Logan. But once Christian come back, you'll have to come up for a visit. You're girls are still adorable as ever!

And very impressed that you did a half marathon! Maybe that should be my goal after this next baby comes...
