Quick update!

This is all backwards so start at the bottom!SORRY!


We took a trip up to Mesa with the Jensens


Me and Clark bottled some peaches! YUMMO

Lily was a huge help!


Clark got Painter a Hard hat , super cool!( nice smile huh)


Painter and Lillers playing together.


Clarks brother Dallin left on his mission.

Painter got into Grama Hills Vaseline!

Painter loved the EISF. It was fun to take him on rides and to see all the animals!


Ryker came to visit Grama N. so we played for a day! Painters fav hat is the measuring bowls and he decided to share one with Ryker!


The boys shooting.


Painter wanted to throw the clay!



Painters tongue a few days after surgery!



Coming home from Primary's it was super swollen! (pictures don't do it justice!)

This is the wagon that he LOVED, We took him all over the hospital in it and the minute we would come back in the room he would wake up and cry! He did not like his room, but I think he associated it with pain.

After surgery, cuddling for a minute!


Clark and the kids watching a movie!



Right after, his skin was on fire and way red.


Before they took him in for surgery they bring a wagon out and then give them medicine that gets them all relaxed! He was pretending to be a doctor to his toys!


The night before Clark took Painter swimming! It was so much fun!

July & August

So this is all mixed up but oh well! Use your imagination on the order!

August 26, 2005 Clark swept me off my feet! 4 Yrs holy cow!

Wishing we were back on the beaches of Mexico with the sun, water, sand and sunsets!


Painter still loving Lillers!


Painter watching out his window wishing Dad would hurry up and come home! Long days this time of year with work and Paint doesn't Love it!( me either)


4th of July! Tanner, Emma and Lily!


I finally went and got some elastics small enough and put Lily's hair in Piggy's! 2 months old!

Paints tongue got infected again! We go to Primarys on the 31st to get his surgery done and hopefully it will cut down the amount of 'infections' he gets!




Played with the Jensen kids! Painter loved the sweet little barn that Nick build for the sand box!


Painter got a big boy bed! He did really good and first and now he likes to come in at night and say "Hi dad, chocolate milk!?" Not so cute at 3 in the morning!

Pictures of Lily's blessing are soon to come!

Lily Mae Hill

Lily Mae Hill...
We went into the hospital at 8ish on June 17th and they started me on PIT, and I was at a 3. My midwife broke my water at 12:30 and I was at a 3, then at 1:30 I FINALLY got my epidural, and I felt like i needed to push and I was at a 7, then about ten minute later I said I really am feeling pressure and I was at a 9, they called my midwife back she got there about 2:45- 3:00 and I had Lily at 3:13! She was 7Lbs 4oz and was 19 inches long! I pushed for maybe 10 minutes! It was wonderful! She was posterior, which made my hips go all wacky after and it bruised her face alittle but other than that it was great! She is such a GOOD BABY! She wakes up one to two times a night and only fusses when she is hungry or has a bubble in her belly! We are lucky to have her and Painter is finally getting use to the thought of someone stealing his thunder! She was one month old yesterday and we have LOVED every minute!

Laying under the heat lamp!

Right after she was born they put her in my gown with me and I held and nursed her for about an hour and then they took and bathed her! That was a great experience!

One proud daddy!


Our great nurse and Lily after her bath!


Our little family!


Grama and Grampa Nichols!
Grama and Grampa Hill!


Clark loving having his little girl! So precious!


Painter and Lilys 1st kiss!


Getting ready to head home!




She loves to be all stretched out! Her legs are off the couch, she just holds them up all stiff! Funny girl!


Heading out to get stuff done!


Grama Nichols, Grama Beddes, Me and Lily Mae


We love that she has tons of hair! And it is curly on top! SO CUTE!
Painter being a Great big brother!



Jenny took some pics when Lily was around a week old, I was napping! I love them and they turned out great!
