A New Do

Fresh cut

It might be the new cut or it might be the fact that Luke has discovered a CTR ring that was given to him as a baby, but doesn't he look like he's ready for college now?? So debonair!

Gwyn's Baby Blessing

We love you so much baby Gwyn. Yesterday was fantastic.

Recap on Summer

With new baby Gwyn in charge of my schedule for the past few months Jared & Lucas have become even better buddies. Some of the outings Gwyn & I tag along on and some are just for the boys (relaxing day for me). Here's a quick recap on the summer:

Luke's first fishing trip. No luck on the fish but good times had.
Gwyn & Luke getting to know each other a little better.

Fishing attempt #2.....again no luck.
Boy's 1st camping trip.
The Strawberry Day's Rodeo! Do you notice a superman costume theme to the summer? Easy choice for Dad & Luke.
Small fireworks in my parent's field and the Pleasant Grove City fireworks afterward.
The Utah Symphony at Deer Valley.
Camping trip #2. This time with buddy Paxton as well.

24th of July extravaganza. Again with the superman costume. It's hard to even get it washed. Don't judge.Cousin Belle and angel Gwyn.

ATVing in Wyoming at my brother Jim's cabin.
Daxton & Luke watching scary Secret of Nimh at the cabin.


Fishing attempt #3 -SUCCESS !!

Today topped off the summer with Gwyn's baby blessing. It was a great day with lots of family & friends (pictures to follow). Now the packing begins for the big move to California. Gulp!

Two words....LOVE IT!

I Want to Pinch Them

We got some pictures taken last week and I'm loving them. Here's a preview:

Introducing Gwyn

Our little family right before we jumped in the car. If you look closely you can probably see tears in my eyes from all the contractions I'm having.

Dr. Yamashiro & Jared getting ready for the delivery. Dr. Yamashiro had Jared deliver Gwyn with his assistance. Pretty amazing! My normal Dr. was out of town, but I REALLY liked Yamashiro. We lucked out.

Sweet little Gwynie is here!

Gwyn Holland Hutchings was born May 24th at 11:43 p.m. She was 6lbs 10oz and looks like a feminine version of Lucas but with mortal amounts of hair. We are so excited to have her here and I'm feeling great....so much easier than last time. Every time I'm woken up I feel like a kid on Christmas morning when I realize that she's here and I get to hold her. It might be the hormones but I love everything about it. I love to smell her, change her, feed her, EVERYTHING! I'm sure the excitement of changing a poopy diaper will fade quite quickly, but I'm so in love all over again. I'm so excited for everyone to meet her!

Let's Go Fly a Kite

Yesterday was a windy cold day, but Luke and I needed to get out. Luke has been sick , but he loved flying the kite he gave dad for Valentine's Day even though he was coughing and hacking the whole time.

Kind of blurry, but such a cute picture.


Mom helping out.


12 more weeks of that big tummy.
