Congrats Mr. and Mrs. DAVIS

Saturday was the big day for Kimberly and Cameron. They were sealed together in the Mesa AZ Temple at 10:00am. It was a beautiful ceremony and they had lots of family and friends there. They are such a beautiful couple and I know they will have so much fun learning and growing together. I love you guys!

Then we had a luncheon and the reception later that night. It was very beautiful and everything went pretty smooth. There was lots of pictures followed by food and dancing. We got everyone out on the dance floor and the little one's were so cute. I didn't have my camera so I couldn't get pictures of it but Kolsen, Kernan, Bode and all the other little cousins and friends were on fire. They loved to dance and were bouncing to the music. It was adorable!!!

We had to wake Kolsen up early to go to the temple so he was a little grouchy and you can see how his daddy handle's that. No sympathy!!!

Just Married

The girls

Cheese!

My Baby isn't a Baby anymore!!!

We have hit a big milestone this past week. Since Jason has been on break for school and have had some days off together we decided that now would be a good time to move the kids bedrooms around and get Kolsen's Big Boy room set up. We started a few days after Christmas and put the mattress to his bed on the floor (so he wouldn't fall off the bed) and all of his toys in there. He was so excited about moving everything and laying on the bed that we figured we would try it and see how he does. It has been over a week now and he has done amazing!!! The first and second nights when we came out in the morning we found him asleep on the couch, but since then he takes naps and sleeps there all night long. He loves it and whenever I say "It's Nap Time" he goes running to his room and jumps in his bed. He is such a good little boy. We are so spoiled. Also ignore the comforter. Kolsen got really sick this weekend and threw up all over his other one.

So since he is all settled in his room now, I wanted to get Kallie's (I thought I would try this name out) room situated. I got all of her bedding washed and put in the crib and now all we have to do is paint both rooms and get the Playroom/Foster room set up. It feels so good when you accomplish all the things you wanted to do. We have tons more projects around the house, but I don't think those ever stop.

We also finished my Christmas present. The kids bathroom is finally done and painted. It looks so cute and I love the set that Jason bought. Here are a few pictures:

Kolsen loves the bathroom too because every time he goes in he has to walk right up to the curtain and growl like a Lion or make monkey sounds. It is so cute!!!

Christmas pictures

Here are some fun Christmas pictures we took to give as gifts. They turned out pretty good but Kolsen is making a goofy face in our family one. We put the camera on a stand and it took 6 quick ones in a row and that was the best one.

Christmas Eve

One of my family traditions is to have a big fancy Christmas Eve dinner and open one present. The present is always PJ's for the kids and an ornament for the adults. It was very special too this year because Alan and Debbie were able to come over and share it with us. We are so spoiled and blessed that both of our families get along so well and we can share in special days together. It was so fun and the kids had a blast!

Kolsen wanted to wear them on his head. He also got some "Cars" slippers that he has not taken off yet and it is two days later. Crazy boy. He loves them and when he walks he makes the car noise. It is too cute!

Christmas!

I hope everyone had as much fun on Christmas as we did. Kolsen loved opening his gifts and we really enjoyed spending time with our families. Here are just a few pictures because we did mostly videos.








Jason got some clothes, Rollerblades, jerky, pistachios, and some work out equipment.














I got the bathroom set that I have wanted forever, Some kitchen rugs and decor and an Ipod. Also on Saturday we are painting our bathroom so when that is all done I will put up some pictures. I love it!!'


We had to much fun with Kolsen and videos that we didn't take any stills. So here is a video of one of his favorite gifts. He also got some clothes and lots more toys from our families.

A name for our little Girl!

As you probably noticed I have started a poll on the right to help us decide how to spell our little girls name. We are torn and there are so many ways to spell it so let us know what you think.
Other than that we are doing well and are getting so excited for Christmas. We have put our wrapped Christmas presents out under the tree and Kolsen keeps bringing them to me and shaking his head "yes" meaning he wants to open them but never does. Then when I tell him to go put it back he has to push it as far under the tree as he can. It is really cute to watch. I know he will have a blast opening them on Christmas morning. We also get to talk to Tanner. It is always fun to talk to our missionary's and this will be his 6 month mark which is crazy. It is going so fast. Well, I hope everyone is doing good and Santa brings you some good stuff this year. Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS and I will post again in a few days after the family time has settled down!

Flemming Christmas Party

We had a family Christmas party last Monday night where a special guest showed up. It was a lot of fun to see all of our family and to read some beautiful Christmas stories, but the funniest thing was to watch Kolsen on Santa's lap. We stood at the front of the stage and let him watch the kids sit on him to show him that it was fun and he seemed really excited and kept saying "Santa" so we decided to give it a try. As you can see he was not to sure what to think about the big man in red. The picture below was the first sighting.

This cute picture was Kolsen sneaking away to go play with the water jug you can see in the background. He liked that more than eating all the good food. I love it cause you can see the sneaky look in his eye.

And finally daddy trying to make me smile for the camera. Say Cheese!!!

Shower #2

Well, we are all done with the shower's for Kim. The second friend and ward shower was on Saturday and it was tons of fun. She had a really good turn out and got lots of good stuff for her kitchen. I was helping with gifts so I didn't get any pictures of them but I got a few of the pre shower stuff. This is the towel cake I did for her. Her colors turned out beautiful!!!

The yummy food!

Kim and her high school friends. These are some amazing girls. We passed advise cards around and the things these girls had to say was so insightful! I am glad Kim has friends like this!

We also found some beautiful roses that matched perfectly with our colors. I love Costco roses!!!

Kim's Family Shower

THE GIRLS:





We had the first of Kim's showers on Saturday. It was a family shower thrown by Debbie Davis and Emily Kealer. It was a lot of fun and she and Cameron got a lot of good stuff. Thank you so much for all of those who came. I know it meant a lot to them that you were there. Here are some pictures:






















Table Decorations





















Some of their gifts (I love the picture of Christ)























"Family Shot" from the right: Me, Kim, Mom, Heather, Rachel






THE BOYS:
And while we were having the shower this is what the men were doing. The picture says it all. Kolsen got to shoot the gun and still came back ALIVE with only 1 scratch on his hand which is good. Jason said he kept the ear things on the whole time and loved it. I think they had too much fun!!!

IT'S A GIRL!!! IT'S A GIRL!!!

Well, we went to the doctor on Wednesday and found out that Kolsen is getting a little sister. We are so excited and can't wait to meet her. I have had a feeling that it would be a girl but I wasn't as sure with this one as I was with Kolsen. But it was clear as day on the ultra sound. She is doing good and is right on schedule for her size and is kicking away now. This is the fun part when you are over all the sickness, start to feel them move, and aren't too big to be uncomfortable yet. So I need to enjoy it while it lasts. I am also so ridiculous because it has only been 2 days of knowing and I have already bought her crib bedding set and know how I am painting her room. (Can you tell I am excited for a girl???) Here is the set the I got on eBay(which I love) for less than $90 for all 14 pieces. I got everything in the picture except the mobile. I thought it was too good of a deal to pass up. Tell me what you think.

And finally here is a belly shot of me at 20 weeks. Yeah, I have hit the 1/2 way mark! The good thing is that I have only gained 1lb. from my starting weight cause I lost so much in the beginning. But I am sure it is coming. This little girl has already shown that she will be much more high maintenance than Kolsen. Anyway, I hope everyone had a good weekend!

IT's BegiNning tO LoOk A lOt liKe ChriStmAs!!!

You know he is thinking "I really want to touch that"

We got our decorations and tree up early this year and Kolsen did such a good job. He didn't get that we needed to hang the ornaments and not play with them at first, but he came around. He also found one of mine that is a train and wanted to drive it all over the tree. It was to cute so we got a little video of it. It won't post right now but I will try again later. Hope everyone is having a good time getting ready for Christmas.

Our lights twinkle so a good picture was hard to get

WhAt A WeeKenD!!!

Well, I hope everyone had as much fun as us this weekend. It was packed full of fun family activities and lots of food. Our Thanksgiving day was a blast. We went to the Davis side for lunch and then to my side later that day for dinner. It was a lot of fun with a lot of good food but the bad part was Kolsen got sick about 2:00 with a fever and didn't feel good the rest of the day. The good thing was he got to sleep most of the evening at my parents house and the next day he was much better. It was a weird 12 hr thing and he is fine now.

Then on Friday Jason got the day off and we got to do our Christmas decorations and we got our Christmas gift early. We got our selves a garage door opener and can actually use our garage now. It is amazing what a difference pushing a little button does for my lazy self. Anyway, our house looks so nice and I am so in the Christmas mood now. There is something so special about this time of the year when we get to think about Christ's birth and life and then wonderful things he has done for us. You can see it fill the air and everyone is a little happier than usual.

Saturday was also a big day for our family. Heather and Spencer went through the temple to be sealed together and to Lexi for All Eternity. What a special miracle that is. They are such a sweet family and I am so glad that they are in my life and have made the wonderful choice to go to the temple and receive all the blessing that come with that. I love them very much and can't wait to see what is in store for their family. When they get the pictures back I will steel some and post them. Since then our life has slowed down a little and is starting to get back to normal.

Oh yeah and I also did my hair different. I have been in kind of a funk and been really down on my self lately. I don't know if it is the hormones or what but I just needed a change to liven things up again so I decided to dye my hair. Heather and I decided that I should go darker and I absolutely love it. It is a Reddish brown color with Blond highlights and Heather did an amazing job. I am so spoiled to have her in my family and to get to take advantage of her whenever I want. She is amazing with hair and I will never go to anyone else!!! LOVE YOU HEATHER!!

And last the belly bump has finally come. I am about 18 weeks now and we can find out what it is in the next few weeks, I am sooooooo excited. I still have no idea what it is but we will be happy with whatever come. Stay tuned to find out!

STICKY FOODS ARE SO MUCH FUN!!!

OK, SO ON SUNDAY WE GOT UP EARLY AND HAD A WONDERFUL BREAKFAST OF GERMAN PANCAKES AND EVERYONE LOVED THEM. ESPECIALLY OUR SON. HE IS LEARNING HOW TO USE HIS UTENSILS AND IS DOING REALLY GOOD, BUT I THINK HE GOT A LITTLE TO EXCITED THIS TIME AND MAD A HUGE MESS WITH THE SYRUP. AFTER A FEW MINUETS OF BEING MESSY WE LOOKED OVER AT HIM CAUSE HE WAS GIGGLING AND THIS IS WHAT WE FOUND. HE HAD STUCK THE SPOON TO HIS NOSE AND IT STAYED. JASON AND I LOST IT. WE PROBABLY JUST TAUGHT HIM THAT IT IS FUNNY TO PLAY WITH FOOD, BUT IT WAS TO HILARIOUS NOT TO LAUGH. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT WAS BATH TIME AFTER THAT. I LOVE HAVING KIDS.
