Headstand

I need help convincing Jeremy that gymnastics would be really good for Levi. He does not think Levi needs it.

Park

On the way home from the bank yesterday I spontaneously decided to go to the park. All the big kids are back at school so we were the only ones at the park and it was perfect weather.
Kyle got to swing for the first time and loved loved loved it. It was so fun to see him enjoying the park so much.
Kyle also took a step all by himself yesterday. I was sitting in front of him and he stood up and I put my hands out and he took one step to me. Hes so close to walking.
I still do not have a camera so these are still pictures from my phone.

The Beach at Herriman

I know it is a far cry from the real beach but that is what the name of this place is and it was exactly what I have been looking for since I moved here. Some where to swim out side, close to home, free, un-chlorinated and no "man" telling us what to do.
We went late in the day and the water was colder than I thought it was going to be. It was so much fun. I just wish I had found out about this place at the beginning of summer. But we will be getting much use out of it before the weather gets cold.
For the locals here in Utah here is the link if you would like to enjoy this little slice of heaven. Beach link
I cant tell you how much sun, water and sand soothes my soul. Levi had a blast too, he was swimming all over and throwing sand and digging.
The first picture of Levi and his Dark Vader mask. We found that at the DI for $5.00. He was happy

Camping

Last weekend we did a little camping. We tried a brand new spot up Settlement Canyon. It had its pros and cons. We ended up coming home early cause it was raining really hard Saturday.
I am still with out a camera so you still get pictures from my cell phone.
We went on a very nice hike and had a great time. We did some fishing in the lake. It was so nice to just spend time with our family.
Levi was scared of the bees that were there but no one got stung so that was good.
Pros:
Got out of town
Spending time with the family
Levi had a great time
trailer worked great
food was good
nice hiking trailer
creek to play in
at $5.00 a night it was a good deal and only 40 min from home


Cons
rained
no running water
came home early
Levi got blisters from the hike

no bathrooms

No pictures

I miss my camera. Its hard to blog when I don't have any pictures to post.
Levi got sung by a wasp 3 times. He was very upset but we now know that he is not allergic. He also has a finger nail that is dead and falling off but its not quite all the way off. I have tried to rip if off but I am not quick enough and than he figures out what I am trying to do and freaks out. We were at the doctor with Kyle and I had her look at the nail and she said it was dead but it will grow back, so now Levi is telling everyone that his finger is dead.
Kyle had some red stuff in a wet diaper and a slight fever. I was worried it was a bladder infection so we went to the doctor and she said that it was probably just crystals in his urine which he should not be having but there is nothing they can do about it. So they took a urine sample (by catheter) and the doctor was right it was not blood but this urine did have crystals and something else in there that told us he was dehydrated which makes the crystals more prevalent. So we have been pushing the liquids.
