Our New Joy

As most of you know... Kylee had her baby last week.
Our original due date was August 21, 2008,
but Ashton was such a big baby when she came
(9 lbs. & 9 oz.) that we decided to induce 2 weeks early.
Ever since we found out the due date,
Kylee was hoping for the 8-8-08 birthday for Nixon.

Here are the stats:
Name: Nixon Timothy
DOB: August 8, 2008
Weight: 8 lbs. 9 oz.

Our last time before Nixon arrives.

in the background)

Definitely a boy!

(No... those aren't black balls)

He even came with his own signature.

So calm (for now).

Kylee's already thinking clothing line.

"props to pops"

As nice as it is to be pampered in

the hospital... it's nice to leave

Scott Adams and I went up Saturday
evening a week ago and had some fun!

4-Peaks Pix

My buddy and I decided to go to 4-Peaks and test the Trooper again.

I guess once a month is better than not at all.

We started this month off by inviting

a few of our friends up to my parents cabin.

Just in time before it gets too hot up there.

Kylee isn't giving up yet... I won't let her. If it were up to

her she'd have the baby now. She is a trooper when it

comes to keeping her spirits up. She is getting tired

pretty quickly in the day now. It can't be soon enough she says.

This is Box Canyon (outside of Christopher Creek).

Kylee had another Boutique. Ashton is posing again.

Ashton loves to help out with the chores.

Here she is at Gma's & Gpa's cleaning the dishes.

I went up with the boys in our ward to Havasupai.

This is the trail head.

Yes, you go down!

This won't be the last time she poses.

I'd Rather Be 4-Wheelin'

This was a fun few hours for the family!

I had to test it to see what it was capable of.

I think it needs more testing.
