Lots to catch up!

It's been awhile since I have updated so i figured I would sit down and get it done. In August we had a Radford family reunion in Shelley, Idaho. Those who know me know that I am not a camper. We got a tent when we got married from Coleman's grandma and this was our first time using it. It was only for one night but one night was all I needed :) We had so much fun with all the Aunts, Uncles, and cousins. Ike loved being surrounded by kids. That same weekend we made it home on time to see the Ricker's. They were in town for the weekend visiting friends. It was good to see little Gwen and the fam. We miss you guys already! My brother Dave came at the beginning of the month with his friend Jonah for a few days. It was fun to see the kids hanging all over their Uncle D.

Last week was our trip to Chicago. I will update more about our trip next.


Pratt, Jay, and Coleman...so bromantic

Ricker's and Radford's

We got Ike a little outdoor pool to play. He loved every minute of it.



Waking up in our tent! Eating some jerky!

Just some random pics of Ike
He found the costume mask in storage. He thought he was a monster!


His absolute favorite thing to do right now is get into my wallet and organize the cards.
He's picking up some good habits from his mommy.

25th Birthday/Holiday weekend

It was a great Holiday weekend. We got Coleman for a full 3 days. Friday we celebrated Pioneers Day. Ike has been recovering from an ongoing cold so instead of taking him out swimming we headed to the mall for some shopping. It was great, we hit up our favorite CPK and the Nordstrom sale. Later we bbq'd and relaxed. We kept it simple and just did a few fireworks for Ike. Saturday I got up way to early and did my usual run. Later that evening we got together with the Nuttalls for a birthday celebration. A lot of us all have birthday's right around each other. It was great food!
Sunday I got to sleep in and woken up to breakfast in bed, my favorite, strawberry crepes. I had to go to church and help with my sunbeam class but soon skipped out. Coleman surprised me with some new perfume, Viva La Juicy, by Juicy Couture. I haven't had a new perfume since before I was prego with Ike. It smells amazing. Later Coleman and I got to go out to the Rodizio Grill, just the two of us. It was so amazing, a lot of food but so good. It was a wonderful birthday. He also made me my favorite kind of cake...funfetti cake and funfetti frosting. So simple but so good.
Sorry there a lot of pictures of Ike but he's so fun right now and such a personality.
Coleman and Ike at CPK...cheeser.

Ike loves to copy dad in everything he does.

Update

It's been a fun summer. It has finally warmed up and stopped raining. We had a great 4th of July weekend with the family. We were able to go to the Sandy parade and have lunch at Grandma Audrey and Les's house. Then finished up the night at Tank's 4th birthday party. It was so much fun. Isaac loved all the fireworks till bedtime kicked in.
We've finally been able to get out and go swimming. Ike is loving the water now and can't get enough. We do miss our pool buddies Jay and Heather!
Well more summer fun to come!
Have a good week!


We got Ike his own little Mickey Mouse Golf Club set and loves to hit the ball. Beware you may get it right in the shin.

Ike loving the water!

I'm so excited. Coleman spoiled me and got me my birthday present real early this year. My new jogging stroller! I love it and can't wait to put it to use. Thanks babe, Love you!

Summer Fun

Summer is in full swing now...other than the rain that hasn't stop since the beginning of June. It feels like we are in Oregon and highest temperature has been maybe 75 degrees. I am waiting for the warm weather to get here. We had quite a few birthdays in the last month. Hailey celebrated May 25Th, Coleman and Frank were the 29Th, and Richard was June 1st. It has been fun to see everyone. For Coleman's birthday we surprised him with a new grill. Of course you get the grill, skip the cake and ice cream because all the men were outside putting it together. Later that week we said goodbye to our good friends Jay and Heather and little Gwen who moved back to Oregon. We sure miss them already.
This summer we decided to get a zoo membership. Ike loved seeing all the animals. I am excited to bring him back again through the summer. Ike just recently completed his Little Gym course. He loved going every Friday. He loved learning all the skills and loved his teacher Miss Kim. He's almost got his somersault down perfectly and loves to say " i did it." I'm sad its over because I'm not sure what our summer activity is going to be, an ideas?
For the next two weeks Wes and Page are in Japan and so we have Amelia with us. Then next week we get to have Ethan for a few days while Richard and Austin go to Chicago. We are excited to have both of them with us.


Coleman, Ike, Hannah, and Amelia.


Ike loves trying out mommies glasses.
