Chinese PJ's

Grandma Carpenter went to China in July when she was there she bought the kids Chinese Pajamas! Logan and Auntie Jenn came for the weekend so we got some pictures of the boys in their jammies and hats! Don't they look cute! Aylah also got pajamas but her's were way to big! Grandma also brought back pearls for mommy, Aylah, and Jenn and lots of other trinkets! We also got the first picture of Papa and all three of his Grandkids! Logan (3) Aylah (5months) and Eben (2)!

Let's Go Fly a Kite

Eben got 2 kites, a Thomas kite and a real Chinese Dragon kite. So we tried them out. The Thomas kite flew much better than the Dragon (mostly because mom was worried about breaking the Dragon kite). It was lots of fun, especially for Arlin!

Evanston Airshow

A couple of weekends ago we went to the Evanston Airshow, it was our first airshow. It was pretty cool! They had a couple of old war planes and an acrobatic Russian training plane (the red plane). I was told that the green plane is only 1 of 2 still in existence! They also had some parachuters (barf!) is all I could think about!

Eben thought that they were really cool and loud! He was entertained the whole 2 hours and kept saying, "Mommy look at that airplane!". It would be fun to go to another larger show, maybe next year we will find one to go to.

Going to Salmon

We went to see Logan and Auntie Jenn in August for the weekend. It was lots of fun! The boys played really good, as long as they were outside!

Aylah's Blessing

We had Aylah's Blessing on June 6, 2008 and she was the most beautiful baby girl that I had ever seen. I am probably a little bias but

her dress was absolutely beautiful. If you are having a Blessing I would suggest the website http://www.onesmallchild.com/ they have the most beautiful dresses!

Baby Girl Moen

As most of you know we had a new addition to our family-Aylah Kathleen Moen. She was born April 15, 2008, she was about 4 weeks early. Even though she was early she was a healthy 6 lbs. 14 oz. and born at 3:43 by cesarean (not fun for mom!). She is such a wonderful, happy baby, even though she has reflux just like her brother. She had a tough time gaining weight and was on medication 3 times a day for the reflux but was still a happy baby. She is doing wonderful now and is gaining weight properly and only takes her medication once a day. We took her to a Chiropractor and a Message Therapist and I believe that it is why she is doing so well. We are so greatful for her to be in our family and her brother absolutely adores her. He is such a big help and is always concerned about her.

New to Blogging
