More gymnastics meets for Bryn



We met Dad for lunch and Bryn went to work with him for the rest of the day.  Can't beat unlimited shows and treats!


The girls did great at their end of year school performances.








Bryn did awesome competing in her first State Meet.  She had a lot of fun finishing up the year with her cute teammates and of course adding to her medal collection.







One day we were watching Hudson and he was just chilling on stairs for like 20 minutes.


Kaelyn somehow pulled down her tent bed and escaped one night.  She went all the way down to the basement to play with her toys.  Sill girl!


Kaelyn watching her show in a new spot.


We went out to Grandma and Grandpa Rasmussens for Memorial day.  The girls have a blast playing with cousins and we hardly see them the whole weekend.


Mckinley was dying to have her hair braided in tiny braids and finally towards the end of the night we all rallied to get it done.


I knew the minute Bryn saw them she would want them too and I was spot on.



Kaelyn stole Bryn's Doll and was trying to do her hair on our trip out to Neola.  We love when she plays with something besides her music toys.


The girls at Grandma Ruth's grave.


Our little Bryn graduated from Kindergarten and it just about killed me.  I can't stand how fast she is growing up, but she is just loving it!  She has had a great year and loved her teacher Mrs. Peterson and all the cute new friends she has made.






We had some friends over for a playdate after school and had to hit up swirly girls for their $1 ice cream cones.


Jaymi did awesome at her first Special Olympics swim meet.  She won both races she was in.

 Jaymi asking for a picture of her with her baby.  I love how much she loves her little doll and how proud she is that she has Down syndrome like her.


Bryn and her baby Kaelyn

Team Baby Mama's at Peytons wedding reception.


Look how thick Bryn's hair looks with this due.


Kaelyns teacher sent these pictures of her at the black light party they had in the sensory room.

April 2018

Wayne took the girls to the re-dedication of the Jordan River Temple with his family while I had a school board meeting.


Kaelyn likes to throw the chairs to the ground when she can't find me in the house.  She sure did a number on this bar stool.  After a year of abuse it finally fell apart.


We had a little get together with some other families with kiddos with Down syndrome at the Petersons and we did our best to get a picture of all the cute little rascals.






Had a great time at Grandma and Grandpa Bonners for the annual Easter Egg Hunt.










Bryn continues to Rock gymnastics and make improvements each meet.




Waynes car went and died on up so we got to shop for a new car after a month of trying to figure out if it could be fixed.  He was a trooper taking trax and getting lifts to get around.


Kaelyn loves getting in her jammies and finishing off the night with a show.  She finds the funniest places to camp out.




Jaymi participated on the Special Olympics swim team this spring.



More gymnastics fun!




Oakley and I went for mom's of the year awards and took all six kids to the pool during Spring Break!


We also went to the trampoline park with our Bonner cousins another day during Spring Break.



And to the Museum of Natural Curiosity with Grandma Amy and cousins.









It was chilly the morning we planned to go to the big Bluffdale Park but we bundled up and still had a good time with friends.



Got to document new fancy hairstyles.


Kaelyn chillin with dad


Holly and I took our girls to the Pac 12 gymnastics championships and of course our cute girls made it on the jumbo-tron.  Jaymi makes it up there just about every time!




Bryns friend Briella had her birthday party at a rock climbing gym and Bryn had a blast climbing up the big wall.




She even list her tooth during the party.



I was able to get away for a long weekend with some of the other moms in our local Down syndrome moms group.  We had a great time!













Best cheer buddies!


Bryn insisted on a car selfie to document her four missing front teeth!


Jaymi had her year end dance recital





Mia was off track so Bryn had her over for a playdate after school one day.



Bryn loves carrying Kaelyn around like a little baby, K doesn't seem to mind either.


Team Baby Mama's got together for a wedding shower for our teammate Peyton.  It won't be too long until she adds to our numbers with a little one of her own.  Or maybe we have scared her too much with all our child bearing stories.



The girls and I were part of a photoshoot for mom's and their children with special needs.




The cheer squad performed at the Herriman Boys soccer halftime and luckily the weather cooperated
