Oh my baby!!!

Kinlee is still growing fast and learning new things every day! She's done a ton in just the short time since my last post about her. She is mobile. And not just the army crawl either. She is all over the place. Her favorite place is in the bathroom pulling the garbage can over. She has two teeth. And she can get into sitting position. Almost every morning she is sitting in her crib waiting for me to come and get her. She went to the dr. the other week and here are her stats.

Weight 17lbs 12 oz - 74%

Height 27 3/4 in - 96%

Head 44cm - 81%

Her other favorite place to crawl is under her crib. Usually I will leave her in her room and come back and she is no where to be seen. Then I hear her playing under her crib. She's so fun!

Where's Ninny (Tray calls her ninny cause he can't or won't say Kinlee)

Peek-a-boo I see you

A Family Tradition

If you know the Bronson's you may know that we have a big family reunion every August with my Grandma Edith and her children. The reunion comes complete with a theme, planned activities that relate to the theme, and lots of fun and laughs. We've been having this reunion since I was in the 5th or 6th grade. I think 1994, 15 years of reunions! Wow, to say that out loud it seems like a lot. I remember when we first started I would sit at our window and watch for my cousins to drive by so I could go over and visit with them. We would stay up all night playing night games and sleeping out on the grass with my cousins. It was so much fun.
I'll just mention some of the themes just so you have an idea of how much goes into planning these things. We've had "Boot Camp" "Pioneers" "Olympics" "Knights" "Circus" "Decades" "Mountain Man Rendezvous" "007" "Luau" "Disney Movies"

Obviously there are more themes but I can't think of all of them right now. My grandma saves a piece of memorabilia from each reunion to hang on the walls of the party shed and it's pretty much covered by now.

This year the theme was "Superheroes" Rusty, Marlie, and Ruger (AKA Incredibles)

Grandma Edith (AKA Wonder Woman)

Travis and Kelton (Mr and Mr Incredible)

My crazy aunts Jean, Rita, and Connie (AKA I don't know who they were being)

Welcome Home Kelsey!!!!

Kelsey came home for 3 weeks and it was so nice having her here!!! I hate when she has to leave again because it makes me miss her more each time she goes! She is always so willing to help me out with the kids or just to spend time with me! She is one of my best friends and I miss not seeing her everyday! Tray also loved having her here. Whenever he spots a green car now he tells me that Sessy is here.

Boys and Their Toys

We got this at the end of July but I just haven't posted it yet. Travis told me all the stuff to write about it but since men don't really read this blog and I only know a few women who know their stuff when it comes to things like this I conveniently forgot what he told me. But here is Travis and Tray's favorite new thing.

Tray seriously tries to go on a ride almost EVERYDAY! It's rare when we don't take him for a ride. Even Kinlee enjoys a nice ride around the block once in a while.

Where did August go?!?!?!?!?

I hope I wasn't the only one that felt like the end of summer just crept up on me and now it's gone!!! We had a BUSY August that helped the time go by quick though. Just some highlights to remind me of what to blog about when Kinlee takes her nap....

My Ribbon Bows

I've been making bows for Kinlee since I'm too cheap to buy them. The other day Travis looked at all the bows she had and pointed out that there was no way she could wear all of them. So very true. I decided to try to sell them. So if you are interested let me know. I also have a link to my ad on KSL on the right. They're nothing too fancy but I think they're cute.
