Heber Valley Camp


This is our 4th annual camping trip to Heber Valley Camp with the DeWitt family. We haven't taken any family pictures since Logan was born and I have been wanting to take family pictures with Josh and Logan. There are always colorful leaves to take pictures by, so I planned for us to take pictures right when we got there. I didn't realize how hard it would be to get Logan to smile for the camera! He is such a happy guy, but it was hard to catch his smile at the right moment. I posted my favorites, and I added one of the best to the blog for our welcome-to-our-blog-this-is-a-picture-of-us section.


It was Logan's first "real" camping experience staying over night and everything. I had him watch as his dad and Beth started the fire and he had to have smelled the smoke. He was a little fussy when it started getting dark. I don't know if it was because he wondered why no one was turning on the lights, or if it was because he was cold, but I don't think he was cold, because I had him dressed in three layers. He slept almost as long as he normally does, so it ended up being a positive experience.


I just love camping. It is so nice that you forget about worrying about everything. It helps me remember the simple things of life and what is really important.



We have been wanting to add some pictures to the background of our blog, so Josh took these and other scenery pictures at the campsite. He is talented at everything he does, especially when it comes to art. He took the picture we have in the background of our blog of the fall leaves. I love the colors of the fall, but I also loved this picture of the lone yellow flower in the midst of the weeds.

Wow! Your blog looks so great! I really love the leaves in the background. Fall is the best season of the year. Tell Josh great job on the pictures; and of course, Logan is absolutely darling (in a manly, baby kind of way!)

A Couple of Updates

I haven't been very involved in the online world very much in the recent months. I haven't been feeling very well. I had mostly rejoined the feeling-better society and getting excited for the ultrasound which we had yesterday on January 15th. Yes, I am Pregnant!!! 20 weeks to be exact and I had gone to 4 doctors appointments and heard the heartbeat several times. Josh and I went to the ultrasound anxious to find out the gender, because we are planners of course. I got situated and the person doing the ultrasound put the wand on my belly and I looked up at the monitor and saw two circles. (I wish we had a picture of that, but we don't have that exact one) In my mind I said, "that is two heads." She said, "Oh, did you guys know you were having twins?" Josh turned, because he had not seen the two heads on the monitor yet and said, "Uh, no". And she said, "Well, you are!" Surprise. A few moments later we found out it was two girls. Wowza.

Josh Had a Birthday, Shout Hooray!

I am so lucky to have these two guys in my life! I hope you had a good birthday yesterday, Josh!

1st Half-Birthday

Logan sits up all by himself now, but he uses his hands like a little tripod for support. He is also able to roll from his back to his stomach, but he really doesn't like his stomach, so he has probably only rolled that way less than 10 times. Mostly when we tease him with toys or other such things. He is really laid back and happy and I just keep thinking I am the luckiest mom in the world! So Logan turned 6 months old on Sunday. The only real "celebration" we had was feeding him cereal for the first time. We did go to the park, but it took us too long to get ready, so on the stroller-ride over he fell asleep. Josh and I had a little picnic anyway. He did go to the Doctor yesterday and Dr. Clayton said he is doing just great. He said Logan is teething, which I thought, but still no teeth have poked up. He got his shots and he doesn't have to get anymore until his is one year! I was, of course, concerned about his weight gain, but Dr. Clayton told me not to w
