and so it begins









Well I guess this is how our life will be. which is fine. Because now that Remy is getting older he is much more pleasant to be around. not as much crying. he still doesn't sleep as much as I'd like at night, but we do have our good days. We are renting a little house in Plain City (North Ogden) and it is just the cutest thing. It is SUPER hot due to no AC. But we are still so glad to be here. I'll have to take some pictures sometime. Remy is 6 weeks old. I can't believe it. Its so weird that there are babies that are smaller than him. He is quite cute. He smiles occasionally but only if he just ate or needs to poop. He is just growing like a weed. We try and sneak and play tennis while He is asleep. sometimes we play for 10 minutes sometimes for as long as we want. It will be nice when Remy will just sit in his car seat even if he's awake.

Remy Loves Camping

Well, Remy is just over one month old, and already has been on three camping trips. The first camping trip was the Hirschi family reunion up Logan Canyon. It was a great time with family and a lot of fun at Bear Lake.






The first night there, we had a get together around the campfire at our camp. Kristi left her nursing cover sitting on one of the camp chairs over night. When we woke up, it wasn't there. Kristi was convinced that someone accidentally folded it up in a camp chair and walked away with it. Well, right before leaving on the third day, I went to take a wizz, and was casually looking around. Well, the nursing cover was up in a tree. Some squirrel wanted a nice home I guess.
The second camping trip was Kristi's Family's "Camping with the Cousins" up at soldier hollow. It was a lot of fun and games, but the mosquitoes were intense. Thank goodness for the buggy and mosquito net.




We then took a week off, before heading back camping. We went up to the Uintahs, to Trial Lake. It was a lot of fun, Kristi caught a couple fish, we did some canoeing, and had fun around the camp fires.





Remy is awesome. He has his rough days where it just seems like he wants to cry, but he is a good little guy for the most part. He especially seems to like camping, because he does awesome. Now for a couple of my favorite pics of Remy thus far.

Remy's first photo shoot




































Last week we had the great opportunity to have some visitors from Germany. Mark and Ash and Sadie and Londy. I have to say it was so great to see them. We haven't seen them since they came and visited us in Buda Pest. Seeing them brought back all sorts of memories of our good times in europe. We are really wanting go get back there. All we need to do is devise a plan. We were all together -minus one in law- (yes jer, you were missed) for about 10 minutes. During that time we got ourselves a family picture. I'd say its pretty cute. Also, ash took some pictures of me and cade and remy. Also, ash took some pictures of just remy. he is not much for pictures. but he's still cute. Thanks Ash!




speaking of remy, he has been quite the pill. sometimes i think i'm not cut out for this business. But then I remember i birthed him so I can do anything.
