What have we been up to??

Hey everyone! sorry we haven't posted in a while, we've been busy having way to much fun! so i owe you guys a good post!

well lets back track to the first of the summer, lets say June 2010. we spent most of our days at Cherry Hill and playing outside. it was a blast! At first Coleman hated the water but with much persuasion and persistence he is now a little fish!! We also found a new love for coloring with sidewalk chalk but mostly eating it.

In June the Denny Family was also hit with heartache and sadness, my sweet sister-in-law gave birth to a beautiful baby boy named Tavyn, very early on in her pregnancy. He wasn't able to stay on this earth with us, for this cause we mourn. But rejoice in the thought that he is perfect and able to wait for his mom and dad and future brothers and sisters in the presence of God, Jesus and those loved ones who had passed on before him. my heart goes out to Brayden and Kaylie, I think of their pain daily and wish i could take it from them. As a mother i cant imagine the grief Kaylie feels and the sadness although I know she'll be able to hold Tavyn again and raise him as she would here on earth.

sorry for the sad subject i just want boo and Kaylie to know we love them and pray for them daily and know that God wouldn't give them anything they couldn't handle!

July was a fun month! On the Fourth of July i ran my first race. my sister Megan and I ran a 10k. it was fun and a challenge. the last mile was the hardest by far. I dunno if its cuz i was exhausted of if cuz my sister ditched me by sprinting off! We also watched fireworks ate good food and hung out with lots of family and friends. In July we also celebrated My little guys one year old birthday! I CANT BELIEVE HE IS ONE!!! we started the day off with eating pancakes shaped like ones and then went to Cherry Hill. we wore Coleman out so came home for a nap and party preparation! we then had over Nate's family and my family for cake and ice cream. He was spoiled rotten! the night ended with a bang literally! we did fireworks with our friends down the street from us! it was so fun! a perfect birthday! The next day Nate left for Alaska for 9 days. he got to go deep sea fishing for salmon and halibut! we missed him like crazy at home but when he brought home 150 pounds of fish i was happy he went! :)

In August we Celebrated our 4Th anniversary! what a happy 4 years it was been. we got a hotel room at Little America and tickets to the Toby Keith Concert! we had a blast! and the next morning we left camping with my family for a week. We went to Granite Creek, its up by Jackson Hole. we hiked, played in the dirt, swam in the natural hot springs and read a lot. We also got to run the snake river, something i always look forward to!

and then finally September we went up to Nate's grandparents cabin for labor day weekend. we rode 4 wheelers, learned how to play boggle and ate WAY to much good food. I discovered on this vacation that I LOVE TO COOK! I wanna find a cook book like the movie Julie and Julia and cook my whole way through it. we'll see if that ever happens. In September we also decided it was time for a new car so we could stop looking like we packed our whole house when we would go anywhere so we traded in the trusty rusty KIA and bought a Ford explorer. so if you see a maroon ford explorer around honk and wave!! :) we also cut off colemans long blonde locks so he now has a cute buzz. he looks so much older now!

We have been so blessed this summer! it went by way to fast but that seems to be the trend these days! sorry my blogging was so far behind! thanks for reading.

Family Pictures part 1

We are a happy family!

Isnt he adorable?

GO UTAH!!!!!

my little guy is so happy!

Nate's brother Stu took these pictures for Coleman's one year old birthday! He did such a great job! I am so impressed! so if any of you need pictures let me know and i'll get you his number.

long over due up date

well my pictures werent cooperating in this post or maybe i'm computer stupid! either way dont forget to read my posts at the bottom!

little j-man is home!

he went from ski bum to mission man! he is all grown up! we are so proud of him!

wow!!! I am so sorry for the long over due update! I have been so busy and summer has been crazy! so first off! a YEAR ago my little baby was born! can you believe he is one? cuz i sure cant!! July 23rd was a day i will cherish forever! it is the day our small little family of two grew to a family of three and we havent looked back since! Coleman has been the greatest blessing in mine and Nate's life! we have learned so much from this little man and grown so close as a family! He is all over the place and has been walking since he was 9 months old... so you can imagine how good he is at it now! we play chase Coleman all day long! he is starting to really understand stuff and blabbing all sorts of words, we have only been able to figure out a few of them. He says "mommy" "dada" "all done", "doggy", "up" and what we think is "Coleman". you can ask him what the elephant says and he will answer and what the doggy says. its so cute! he also gives high five and knoggin'. he understands what no no means and what hot means, and the most recent is going down the stairs backwards (we've been working on that one for a long time and have tons of bumps, bruises and scars to prove it). This last year has been full of very mini challenges with Coleman too, at 6 months we found out he is allergic to milk, and then most recent he is allergic to a whole slew of things... here is the list.... Gluten, dairy, pork, sodium chloride, and aluminum chloride. so basically what this means is my son can only eat fruit and veggies. It makes eating quite the ordeal! But even with the ups and down and rashes and sleepless nights i would not trade any of them! i am so blessed to be little Colemans mommy! i love this little man!

next update... i'm sure most of you already know this BUT...

MY BROTHER IS HOME!!!!!

jesse got home at 11:00 p.m on May 24th! it was such a fun night! we went to IHOP after he landed. it wasnt the best food but it was good company and great converation! it is so good to have lil j-man home! he is adjusting to life well and now we just gotta get him married (dont tell my mom i said that) so if you have any cute single ladies that me and Megan would approve of just give me a holla! :)

well guys... its almost midnight and i should be sleeping cuz all you mom's know how precious it is! so i'll finish this another night! GOOD NIGHT!

Behind in the Blogging!

WOW i am SOOOOO lame! i just looked at my blog and realized i'm so so so far behind in my blogging! so just a little line to tell you its coming... one of these days! :)

9 month photoshoot

my baby is getting so big! he will be 9 months this friday! where does the time go?? this is a preview of the photo shoot we got taken of him this past week!

Coleman is trying to walk and is always on the go. this makes for a tired baby and a tired mommy at the end of each day! He blabbers all day long and screams too, he loves his daddy and laughs a lot when he is around. He loves our dog and gets giddy when we go outside and play with him. He isnt a big fan of eating... he has better things to do it seems like. He also still isnt a big fan of sleeping... go figure! we sure love Coleman! he is out joy and makes us so so so happy everyday! we sure love you little buddy!

i'll post more pictures from the photoshoot when they are edited.

St. George

This past weekend we went to St. George. It was a fast trip but it was a fun get away! we swam, visited with my Grandma Chris and invaded her house, and watched Shane play some wicked awesome rugby! it was so much fun. it was nice weather and all around a great time. I even convinced nate to shop with me for a little bit. Coleman Hated the pool at first so it took some convincing and some tears but he finally ended up loving it... sorta! (which is so wierd cuz he loves loves loves the Roy pool at home... figure that one out???)

What a week!

Well March is here and what does that mean??? Well of course it means Nate is out of Town!

BOO!!!

spring is their busy season and with the busy season comes a lot of out of town work... so this week started of with Nate leaving out of town on Monday morning really early.

BUT... lets back track for a second... remember my last post about my sick baby???

well... he got even worse!! Thursday he got a fever and diarrhea. Friday we added a runny/stuffy nose, and Saturday we topped it all off with a cough (a bad bad congested cough). So went spent Sunday sleeping, drinking lots of liquid and crying. it was not a fun weekend for poor Coleman. oh and to make it all better I woke up Sunday sick with exactly the same thing as Coleman.

Anyways back to Nate leaving on Monday. I woke up Monday morning not feeling good at all, Coleman wasn't feeling good at all so I decided to pack up and go to my mom's to have her help while Nate was gone for the week. luckily i did...

Monday night Coleman cried a lot of the night, Tuesday night Coleman cried ALL night so Wednesday I had had it with being sick, but I had to work so I had my sweet mom take Coleman to the doctor... and of course we needed to add to Coleman's symptoms list ...Coleman has a good old fashion ear infection! (Hence the Crying ALL night). so a fever,diarrhea, stuffy/runny nose, cough and an ear infection!

And of course this all has to happen with Nate out of town. It has been quite the week, luckily I have been blessed with awesome parents who are willing to help. Tuesday night my Dad helped me with Coleman from 12:45-3:15 and then again at 5:30! what a great guy! My Mom changed countless nasty diapers, made sure he was comfortable and kept rubs on him, and took him to the doctors, oh and was also up with him crying! My sister Megan watched him when no one else could, (while I was at work) and changed 4 diapers in one hour! Shane was there to keep Coleman smiling, Coleman would cry when Shane would leave the room! I know I couldn't have done it this week without their help. since Saturday night I have gotten an average of 2-5 hours of sleep a night. so they have been a blessing to keep me sane and help me with my poor sick baby! thanks Mom, Dad, Megan and Shane! I sure love you guys!

What a week! what a week! Luckily Nate comes home tomorrow! Thank goodness.

crawling, throwing up and being held...

wow our little coleman had quite the day yesterday! it all started at 6 a.m when he woke up crying. I went and got him out of his crib fed him and after eating hardly anything he just laid there with his head on my shoulder and arms tucked in under his body... i had a feeling then that it was gonna be a long day! (and i was right) He fell back asleep in my arms and slept till 8, again waking up crying. all day long he wanted to be held and if i wasn't holding him he would cry cry cry. so around 9:30 he fell back asleep and took a two and a half hour nap (which NEVER happens) well... around 2:30 i was up at my mom's house and my mom was feeding him a bottle and he started crying and all the sudden... you guessed it... THROW UP! all over his jacket, shirt, hair and pants plus all over my mom's couch! poor guy! instantly his face turned so pale he looked green and just whimpered. it was so sad! so we packed up and went home. that night I loaded him up with pedilyte and applesauce but right before i was gonna put him to bed he started crying to be put down so i set him down and the little bugger CRAWLED!!!! my cell phone was on the ground and he crawled to it! i was so caught off guard, i know he was gonna start crawling soon but i guess i didn't expect it to happen when he was sick!!! anyways he whimpered all night and threw up a little bit more... lets just say it was a long night of him wanting to be held... which is great for him cuz he actually sleeps but bad for the mom (that being me) cuz you dont sleep. and during all this Nate was at work till 7 then came home and went straight to young mens and got home at 9:30 so straight to bed we went and he got up and left at 6.... sheesh its been quite the week and its only wednesday morning!!! and Coleman isnt feeling better today! poor poor poor guy!!!

our little fishy turns 7 months!

COLEMAN IS 7 MONTHS!!!

*** i tell the story behind this picture if you keep reading***

CoLeMan Turns 7 Months and a OVERdue Denny Family UPdate

We took our little Coleman Swimming, he was a little scared at first because of all the loud noises but 5 minutes in the water and he turned into our little fish! he loved it, and now when he takes a bath he splashes and kicks like he is in his own pool. (Michael Phelps WATCH OUT) Coleman has also found his voice or atleast how to use it, he is babbling non stop all day long. He also has a new found talent of screaming and grunting. it cracks us up everytime he does it. He is trying to crawl and is getting so close, he gets up on his hands and knees in crawling position but then just rocks back and forth... we think it'll be any day BUT until then he seems content rolling everywhere. if he wants something he rolls to it. if he wants to go somewhere.. you guessed it... he rolls there. its great! He is loving solid foods especially peas. At his 6 month appointment (so a month ago) he weighed 17.11 and was 26 and a half inches tall. we have a growing boy! he is getting so big. he is so curious. me and nate always say when he can walk we are in HUGE trouble, we already have our hands full but i cant even imagine what it will be like when he can walk. YIKES. he is such a happy baby. He still isnt sleeping through the night and some nights i feel like i have a new born all over again... but we sure love you Coleman.

***(this is the story behind the picture up top)*** the other night i laid Coleman down for the night and he wasnt even a bit tired but it was getting late so he needed to go to bed. so i tried to rock him to sleep and he wasnt having it, so i finally just laid him down in his crib and walked out of the room. he was silent for a long time so i thought for sure he had fallen asleep... boy oh boy was i wrong! i went in to check on him and he was reaching for his mobile and rollinh from one end to the other... he looked at me and gave me this look like... What? your the one who put me in here! all i could do was laugh and pick him up. but before that i snuck in and took a picture! it was a priceless moment. one of those i will cherish forever!

Coleman you melt our hearts everyday.. atleast once a day and most days atleast 1000 times :) keep growing strong! love you happy 7 months bubba.

Nate is still the BEST husband and Dad ever! he wins the award of the century! HE IS SO AWESOME and working so hard. he makes Coleman laugh so hard and me smile everyday. He is busy working with Twin D and the young men in our ward. He goes about life serving, smiling and loving life. you never hear him complain and he is always willing to help me whenever he can! he is so amazing.

we finally decided to let maverick back inside (for those of you who dont know who Maverick is..well he is our Dumber than DUMB shi tzu... emphasis on the shi), only because he got a very needed haircut and bath.. so since he is clean we thought we should keep him that way.

Coleman and Maverick are buddies. Coleman just laughs and laughs when maverick is around

so i have the cutest story about Coleman and Maverick,

Today i went to drop Maverick off at the groomers. i loaded Coleman in the car and then put Maverick in the back seat with Coleman. Cole laughed and screamed (his good scream) and giggled the whole way there. well when we walked into the groomers Maverick saw the groomer and started barking and growling and trying to protect Coleman.it was pretty cool. so we got things all figured out at the groomers. so it was time for me and Coleman to leave and maverick to get his long over due haircut. well i walked out of the doors... without maverick right? well Coleman just started crying... and it got even worse when i put him in his carseat and maverick wasnt there to keep him company. they are buds!

i thought that was such a cute story though. SORRY to ramble. :)

Our little Family has done a lot of fun stuff this past month that i need to write about... i'm WAY behind.
