Happy Birthday Scotty!

Here we are eating chocolate chip cookies for Scotty's birthday! Friday night we went out to PF Changs! It was so yummy again and we have enjoyed going out and having a night with just the two of us! This weekend with we have enjoyed watching movies on the new clear play Scotty got for his birthday! It's been lot's of fun.


Yes, my sweet partner in crime has turned 31 years old. I can't believe that. We have been married for five years already and I don't feel like we've quite hit the thirties. My dear husband has been the best to me these five years of marriage! He really is the coolest guy I know who can......

Cali's preschool class!

Cali was so excited to be with all her friends again. After preschool this last week Cali said, "We did so much today"! She was just beaming and loved every minute of it! Good job Angie!

Looking back.....

Isaac at one and a half....

One.....

three months.....

Cali at three... Two....

One...
three months.....
As I look back on my journey of Motherhood, I can't help but smile when I see my two sweet children that Heavenly Father has so willingly given into my hands to nurture. They are still so young, yet have learned so much already. Now that another boy is coming to the family in January, it makes me even more excited and anxious. I love children oh so much!!!!

Boating with friends!

Thanks Angie, for taking us on your cool boat!



My friend Angie on the wake board! Whohoo!

Scotty's turn, oh baby!
Trying it with Isaac, he wanted to go with Daddy so bad! Isaac had no fear what so ever, and just went out to be in the water with Dad. After awhile, Isaac got really cold and said, "Ma Ma". That's when Scotty knew to stop.

Preschool has started......

Cali has been awaiting this day for a very long time.

Just being kids!

Baby #3

The Salmon family is announcing that now we have a third bundle of joy on the way, and it's a............


Cheesecake ice cream baby!!

Well the Chinese Calendar said it was a boy.....
The ever accurate and scientific Ring Test said a boy (FOLLOWED BY GIRL, THEN BOY IF YOU ARE WONDERING)

So, we changed things around a little this time. It was Jenny's chance to find out first and order the ice cream. Well she has been craving cheesecake for awhile. So, we decided that Jenny would choose Cheesecake for either the boy or the girl, and she chose to follow the odds with the Chinese and the Ring. So this time, cheesecake is boy, sweet cream is girl. So, Isaac will have a brother, and Cali is hoping the ultrasound was wrong.

Cali will eventually realize how cute he is and love him to death!
Isaac didn't know what was going on but was loving the ice cream and licked every last drop off the table.




We are excited here in Michigan!!!

More summer fun!

Swimming as much as we can......


My big helper! My little helper......well, not so much......
But he sure is adorable!
Cali says "what is there to do around here", all the time........
And so we head to the park with friends! That is pretty much how are summer has been going, and is soon ending with preschool again for Cali! She asks me all the time when it will start.

Cali

A couple of nights ago I heard crying from Cali's room in the middle of the night. I walked upstairs and said what's wrong as I felt wet pee all over her bed. Cali must have been a little out of it because she pointed to her tears and said, "My tears made me all wet. I had to laugh cause this was the first time she had wet the bed, and she really did think that it was her tears that made her all wet.

Friends!

This is Owen, one of Cali's best friends. He is kicking and blowing bubbles during swim lessons. I am sad swim lessons are over.
Isaac sure loves the water and is not afraid to jump on in!

Here they are dressing up and having fun.

Swimming and sleeping

Tommorrow is Cali's last day of swim lessons and she has learned so much. She loves that she is with her freinds and gets so excited to go every morning. She always asks, before she goes to bed, what is going on the next day. Her face always lights up when I say swim lessons with her friends!
Apparantly it has made Cali exhausted. App
