Really she's 2


I can't believe Kanyon is 2. It feels like just yesterday we had her. Time really fly's by with kids. Kanyon is very smart and loves to do alot of new things. She is my little dare devil. Some of the things she loves to do are..
1. Play with BABIES
2. Take Boone for walks
3.Go SWIMMING and jump into the POOL
4.Eat FRENCH fries
5.She loves to say her ABC'S
6.Count to 10
7.Get dress OVER and over again.
8. Eat cereal.
9.Ride her new BIKES
10. Go 4wheeling
The list goes on and on, she is just so smart and a very happy girl. She is shy at times but she is learning to open up to new things. I would not change her for anything. We love you Kanyon Matti Kupfer!

Kanyon's Party


Kanyon had a Great birthday party. She had her little friends over for a BBQ. She got lots of clothes, a lawn mower bubble maker, tinker bell set, shoes, a camping chair and a new bike. She is still kinda small for the bike, but she can grow into it by next summer. Kanyon had a good birthday party. Thank you to everyone who came.

After 2 years

New swing
Side of house where we put some bushes
Kids play area
Bush with solar light's. we put them up around the yard to help keep the dogs from digging.
Fresh sod
Our new patio set
The rose garden
Boone
Were dirt use to be.
Side yard that we planted our own seed.


This is the yard all done, it now has good grass, a sprinkler system, flowers, roses and a fence. Kevin has done a great on this. It all has taken time. But he has done all the work by his self. It saved us thousands of dollars and it did take time, but in the end it was worth it. Kevin and I love sitting out side watching Kanyon and Boone just play in the yard. I feel so safe letting Kanyon play out side now.

Before

You can see there is no fence



We took the tree out to build the fence
It is a pretty big back yard till we built the fence



This was our yard when we bought it. 2 years ago. No fence, dead grass, no water and no flowers.

Hospital= Sent home

So on Friday night, I went walking into WALMART feeling some contractions, not bad. I got the few things I needed and was on my way home when I felt another one, so this time I timed it. They were coming every FIVE min apart. I wait till I felt like it was time.
Well about 9:00 it was time, so I called Kevin's parents and told them what was going on. I then called KEVIN and told him to leave work and meet us at the hospital. They got here fast and we drove to the HOSPITAL. We got all checked in and waited them to tell me what was going on. I was still DILATED to a 3+ and still 70% EFFACED. So nothing had changed. I felt dumb being there. It is still a few weeks early so they wanted to give me SHOTS to stop the contractions. I had to have three very painful shots. It did work though. So I ended up have a bladder INFECTION and that was causing me to have contractions. So in the long run it was good I went up to the hospital.( Sometimes you just never know)
The baby is doing fine, but just kinda small at this point. We are not ready to see HER for at least 2 more weeks.

On the brighter side of things my BIG brother Chris and his Wife Jordan had their first child Friday night. They had a little boy, named him CARTER LEE PENMAN. he was a big baby, 8 pounds 8 ounces. 20 inches long. Mother and BABY are doing great. I can't wait to get to ST. GEORGE and see this new little baby of their's.

Sprinkler System

When Kevin and I bought this house there was a few things it didn't come with. A fence, so last SUMMER Kevin built me a fence for BOONE. Then he said this summer he was going to put in a SPRINKLER system. I said we could go without one. I would water the lawn. Well I didn't win that BATTLE. So he started putting it together at the first of summer. It takes a lot of time when you do things your self, and it cost a lot of MONEY.
So Kevin has worked really hard to get the sprinkler system done. The front yard is done. It works great. Kevin has done a lot of work in the back yard. He has tilled up most the back lawn to make it more even. We have not had nice
GREEN grass on the side of our yard since we moved in. We got our SOD and Kevin laid it all out, It looks great and is so nice to sit on grass. I am very EXCITED to see what the whole back yard will look like. Kevin said he will get it all done by Aug 28Th. I know he will. He has worked so hard to get it our yard looking nice. I know when it gets done we both will be very pleased with the SPRINKLER system. I am happy after all I didn't win the BATTLE!

I am also so lucky to have a great husband who can do anything. I wonder what I did to deserve a great HUSBAND!

New yard!

Front Yard is done. My dad came over to help.
Ya it looks funny where they had to dig, but it will grow back here soon.
We wanted to try and grow some ourselves, It is taking so long though!
Back yard that is done!
Doesn't it look good! Much better then dirt
This is where my roses will go. So excited about roses, as you can see not done yet. Maybe next week
And the dead grass. Not done yet.
More to come when it's all done.

33 Weeks

Well I have made it to 33 weeks, went in yesterday for my check up, baby is growing well, 4.Pounds 4. ounces. Doctor thinks she will come a little early, which is fine with me. Even though Doctors don't know everything. Babies will come when they are ready. So we shall see. Kanyon was 2 weeks early so maybe this one will be around the same time.
I am feeling good, and staying active. Couple of weeks ago I had some major heart burn and I was ready to be done. It has gone away for now. So far this pregnancy has been good. I have enjoyed it. I will be sad when this is over. I love feeling her move all the time, it is so cool. Anyways we are doing good.
