For my Mom :)

One of the other things that we did when Sierra was here is went to my ultrasound! It was super fun that Sierra got to go with me (and thanks Tony for hanging out with the kids so she could :)).  We got to see lots of the baby! They said that usually they do an ultrasound for about an hour (really? An hour? Theres only so much black and white baby blob I can handle), but mine only went a little over 1/2 hour. So once again here's some pictures of the cutest little baby blob you've ever seen!! 





Look at that yawnin' baby :)


And yes, we found out what we are having. I'm not going to lie and say I wasn't shocked...I was. I was so certain it was a girl, but I'm always wrong. I should have known. :)
I have the ultra sound picture to prove it, but really, what 6 month old fetus wants their parts posted all over the internet? That's just indecent ;). You'll just have to take my word for it.

So watch out world, another boy Bundy is coming in October, and we couldn't be happier! We do make ridiculously cute boys ;)

Sierra in Iowa

When we left Utah it wasn't as sad as usual because we kidnapped Sierra and brought her home with us! I'm kind of bummed I didn't get more pictures of her and the stuff we did. She was here for a week and I'm only going to have one post to show for it :/. Oh, well. 

Some of the stuff we did with Sierra-

Ledges National Park- We caught a baby turtle, crawdads, and baby fish.
Big Creek lake-We swam with real nasty seaweed and such :)
Gelato- (Pictured below) 
Catching fireflies-Sierras first time even seeing them!! (and other things like snakes, pic below)
Iowa science museum-(Pictured below)
A hike through Munn Woods- the scary kind, where people get killed in the movies ;)
And lots of late nights with movies! 





Iowa science museum
 pulling up tires

A giant pin thingy...You know what I'm talking about (left top corner-Sierra, Right top-Tony, left middle-Liam, Right middle-Emma, Left bottomish-something Fox did)

Fox's didn't work out so we had him do it at the bottom afterwords
 Blowing giant bubbles. Or at least trying to. 

 Being weather men/women

 Making rockets

Trying to protect the eggs. See the conveyor belt thing in the background? That's where it'd fall from. 

 Sierra's has a parachute. Her egg didn't make it. :) 

We built this
 and then knocked it down

Thanks for visiting Sierra. We miss you already. Really, we do. Come back soon :)

Liam's baptism

July 6th we were lucky enough to be in Utah for Liam's baptism. It was an awesome day! Tony baptized and confirmed Liam and lots of family got to be there. It was also pretty cool because my parents bishop (Bishop Cabe Atkinson) was also one of my leaders while I was in young women's, so I felt right at home. 
I cried alot. I knew I was going to. I tear up at other kids'
baptisms, while the parents sit there smiling and dried eyed. I just think it's so cool. And Bishop Atkinson surprised the mom's by asking them to bare their testimonies. So then I cried more.
But I'm super excited Liam decided to make the decision to be baptized. He's such a good kid, and a good example for his siblings and those around him. 




The Monday (July 8th) after we headed home to Iowa. We were sad to leave, but excited to get back to real life (kind of). Fox keeps asking if we can go to Grandma's house to show her: his cut on his ear, his stuffed animal, his picture he colored. 
We miss it there, but will be back next year. :)
Thanks for letting us visit, Utah!

Swimming party

While in Utah Ashley threw a swim party! She rented a blow up slide from a neighbor and then we all went swimming at her sister, Jenny's house! It was a blast!

Scary Mexi-Tony


Emma's birthday loot. Sad this is all the pictures I got...but we did have a party for her.

The way Sierra dresses Fox

What we make Sierra wear so she doesn't hurt herself

After "free lunch" at Central school. Yes, I totally took advantage of it, even though I don't live there. :)

Fox's bruised foot where a table fell on it

The pregnant lady's tan. No I don't have flipflops on. Yes my feet are the most tan part of my body.

I crafted. :)

Fishing with Grandpa

I think Liam's one thing that he wants to do while we are in Utah is go fishing (and hunting, buuuut not quite old enough) with Grandpa. This year he got to go 3 times! And two of those times were on Grandpa's new boat! I don't think he could have been happier. 

The first trip they left at 5 in the morning. Before they left, Liam ate a sweet roll and then Grandpa's friend Rob bought him some jerky at the gas station. Liam made it almost to the lake before he puked in Grandpa's truck :). Luckily Grandpa and Rob were good sports...I think. He did much better after that  and they caught a ton of fish. 

The second time Grandma and Grandpa took Liam, Emma, Fox, and Magnum to a little fishing pond up in Alpine (Sadly, I have no pictures). As far as I was told, fishing held some of the kids attention for .2 seconds and some of the others were "afraid" of the fish. So-

Trip three Grandpa took only Liam again, and Sierra. :)

Liam also learned that if you caught the fish you had to help gut, bone, and cook the fish. It was pretty fun to watch and the barbecued fish was so stinking good!! 






Thanks Grandpa!!
