Wrapping up the Summer in Utah then our big move to Florida!!!

 So I have been procrastinating at getting our blog updated because we have had so much to catch up on. So forgive me for the millions of pictures and some that are random. I want to keep these moments on here for us to remember and to enjoy. These first two pictures of Tatum are before her baby brother was born. We did lots of fun stuff to occupy our time before his arrival. In fact Tatum miniature golfed for her first time and it was so fun to watch her. She was more concerned about making sure her ball made it to the hole by personally walking it and placing it in herself. It was cute. 

Tatum has to have the best morning hair I have EVER seen. It makes me laugh so hard.

I found these picture of Kolvin when he was only a few weeks old and couldn't believe how fast he has grown up on us.

One of Daddy's favorite things about newborns....the amazing snuggle sessions.

I just love this little bugga boo and am sad he grew up too fast but loving every moment of it.

We had the chance to take Tatum and Kolvin up to my dad's (Papa's) cabin property and take them on a fun ride in the 6 wheeler to see the mountain property and to pet his horses. Tatum was in heaven and was not scared at all with the ride around. Kolvin slept for most of it but still loved being outside like he always does and enjoyed the bouncing from the ride.

Mommy's favorite thing......Napping and Snuggling!!!

Here is Kolvin and his cousin Hadley. They are 11 days apart and look at the HUGE difference in size. Yikes I know but so dang fun to have them close in age. They are both such fun and adorable babies.

Dinner with the family at Dad's. Here are all the sisters with Dad

Here are all the cousins from my side of the family minus Kolvin and Hadley who were in their car seats in the background.

Tatum had so much fun with her Great Grandma Christensen. She would read to Tatum and Tatum would read back to her. It was adorable. I am so happy that they were able to spend some quality time together while we lived in Utah for 8 months.

We got plenty of fun in the sun with all the cousins. Tatum would LIVE in the water if she could. She just loves it.

Here is sweet Kolvin a little over 2 months old.

Taters is growing up into a little girl too fast on us. She is such a joy and such a great little helper with her little brother.

We were able to go on a 4 day fun weekend trip to St. George with Todd's family before Todd had to leave for his Officer's Training for the Air Force. We had a lot of fun and made some great memories. Kolvin was 6 weeks old and did very well with all the traveling and activities we had planned.

Kolvin just chilling at the pool in St. George.

He was unsure about the water but it was over a 100 degrees there and I didn't want him to over heat so I just dipped his legs in the water.

Taters and Daddy both love swimming together.

Whole family with kids minus Kelsey and her husband Lance. It was a great Father's Day

Can't kiss this little man of mine enough!!!

Tatum just loves dressing up in our clothes. Here she is wearing her Daddy's hat.

Todd loved taking Tatum for rides on the bike. And believe me she loved them so much too!! Can you tell by that HUGE grin on her face???

Tatum loves a good park to play at. Here she is at my dad's house playing hard.

We had some fun trips to Seven Peaks Water Park this Summer.

Finally we Made it to FLORIDA!!! All the unpacking was crazy but Tatum made the most of it by entertaining herself with what we unpacked. Here she is wearing mommy's rain boots.

With all the empty boxes we had lying around the house Todd put together a fun fort that they could play in and draw on the walls. It was there own fort and they even had there own secret password to get in. I know that these two missed each other SO much while we were away from each other for 5 weeks.  It was nice to catch up and to just hang out again.

Little Ms. Cook here loves helping mommy make dinner and dessert the most. I wonder why?

I just love these two bugs, they bring me so much joy and I love to see them interact together. It will be fun when Kolvin is big enough to play with his older sister. They will have so much fun together.

We have LOVED the beaches here in Florida. Our favorite beach is about 20 minutes away and called Mexico Beach. It's not crowded and is super pretty just like the rest of the beaches along the Pan Handle.

Kolvin just hangs out in his car seat and watches us play in the sand.

Tatum's first time getting buried up to her waist in sand. She liked it too.

She is a beach bum already and we have only lived here almost 2 months.

Not sure what Todd is thinking here in this picture except maybe "can you see his face under his hat?"

We are so very proud of Todd and all his hard work getting us to our home on base and living the life in the Military. He looks so sharp in both his uniforms if you ask me. It's crazy to think he is finally done with school and actually bringing in an income after all the years he has put through school.

Kolvin and Daddy both wearing their camo

Our community here on base has a fun pool that we have played at a lot this last month. Tatum likes her new life vest we got her and the goggles are a great touch if you ask me.

We set up our tent in the living room one weekend and had such a blast. Don't let Kolvin's sad face tell you otherwise. It was his bedtime and he was fussy.

Finally we are up to date with our life!!! Last weekend we went to our favorite beach and had shrimp po boys in a fun restaurant that was on the beach and we had the prettiest view.

Just LOVE being a mommy!

Love my boys!!!

Kolvin 4 1/2 months old

Morning cartoons are the best!!!

Captured a little Bungee Spit from this little guy.

Just love that sweet face of his. He is such a happy baby.

Big open mouth smile we all love

This sweet face makes my heart melt.

Taters loves walking around the house in mommy's shoes. And she is pretty good at it too!!
