Carson Playing with Kailee

Just a couple of pictures and a video of Carson playing with Kailee. He had just woken up from a nap but he was keeping himself and her entertained for a while! We went to the beach today and had a blast. Carson is getting so big. He loves the waves and building and smashing sand castles! Especially the smashing part. Kailee is starting to spin in circles when she lays on the floor and she is sitting up really well. More updates to come! Miss you all!

Some Pictures of Kailee

Kailee is starting to sit up some on her own and she has been sleeping in her own room now for a couple weeks. Carson is doing very well with her, he likes to feed her when she gets to eat baby food.

Happy Birthday to the Coast Guard

Today we went to the Coast Guard day event at Barbers Point Air Station. They had a HC 130 Hercules and a HH-65A Dolphin Helicopter on display. Carson enjoyed flying them and was excited because they are like the toy ones he has at home. Below are some picture, we forgot the camera so I had to use my phone, sorry if they are a little blurry.



Carson looking out the window in a HC 130.



Then he went to the helicopter and got to sit in the front and back seats.

Texas Trip

We went home to Texas at the beginning of the month. These are a few pictures from our trip.



Since it was so hot about the only thing we could do during the day was swim.


One of Chris's friends and his family came to spend a few days with us at the ranch. This picture is of Carson and Laura playing on the tractor.



Kailee got to go on her first John Deere ride, an experience everyone should have in their life.


The temperatures were very HOT!! I think it was above 100 degrees just about the whole time we were there. Kirsten's parents got a fun blow up slide for Carson to play on, I think the adults had as much fun on it as the kids did.

Grammy, Grampy, and Uncle Cameron

Welcome to Hawaii!! We didn't get a picture of Grampy in his aloha gear!





We went to the Sea Life Park on Tuesday and got to swim with dolphins! It was amazing!



Chris and his dad went deep sea fishing on Thursday and caught this ono (sounds like oh no, haha) That name cracks me up!






Then we went shallow water fishing on Friday and April got to watch Carson and Kailee! It was awesome, Tammy and I were the big winners! AMAZING EXPERIENCE!







Happy Fourth of July! We walked about 3 blocks distance from the house to Sills Field here on the base and spent the day at the fair, then watched Kansas perform, and fireworks! The kids had a blast, Carson loved the loud stuff! They did a cannon blast for each state. I was already home with Kailee by the time they started but I could hear it loud and clear from the house even with the windows closed. Chris said Carson loved it, the noise didn't scare him at all, he just kept laughing and saying "WOW"




Waikiki Beach on Sunday, we went to breakfast at the Hale Koa then hung out at the beach for a while. Chris got a good sunburn on his back!








Everyone went to the Dole Plantation today (Monday) while I was at work.




The trip was awesome, we were so happy they came! We leave for Texas in two days! YAY!

Kailee Video

Just wanted to post a video to show how big Kailee is getting. Everything is going great here! We are headed to Texas in a few weeks!!! I'll post some more pictures soon.

Trip to California

Kailee and I went to California this past weekend to visit family. We got to see Great Grandpa and Great Grandma Winchester, Great Great Grandma Winchester, Great Great Uncle Russ, Great Uncle Greg, and cousins Maryann, Mike, and Nikki! It was a short trip, but we had a great time getting to see everyone! Chris left yesterday to spend a week in Texas helping my dad cut and bail the hay feild so it's just me and the kiddos until tomorrow afternoon when my sister gets here!! We are so excited to see her! Things are going really well. Both kids are getting big so fast! It seems like Carson learns new words and spits out longer and longer sentences everyday. I will post more soon!




Carson has been learning how to make faces, he's so funny!







Kailee got to spend a lot of time with her Great Great Grandma! She even fell asleep in her lap for about an hour!
