August 2 weeks



Time is already going by WAY TOO FAST!!! 
Stats at his 2 week appointment.
Weight 9lbs 10oz 80th percent
Height 21 1/4 (shrinking apparently) 70th %
Head 35th percent:)
 
Just like the other boys, he will be HUGE in no time! 

Special time with Grandpa Vern and Grandma Lori!

 Such a special week for all of us with Grandpa and Grandma Dosmann here.  The boys were able to show off their swimming skills for them.  This would be just one of the many many memories they will cherish forever.
 The boys got to eat at one of their favorite Thai restaurants.
 Play mini golf...
 Only fun is to be had with grandparents.
 Hole in one for Canyon!
 Golf clubs are also great musical instruments and grandma is the best teacher!
 Fun times at the fun center!
 Ice cream cones and teaching the boys how to do magic tricks!
 The boys love to cook and grandma made sure to include them in so many of the meals.
 Painting with a special paint set given to them as a gift!

 Lunch at Jackson's corner!
 
 Bumper Cars!!

 Race Cars!

 Boys first sleep over with Grandpa and Grandma at their hotel.
 Nothing better than swimming in a hotel pool...
 And eating breakfast there too!
 The whole gang!
 Playing at the park!!
 A very special treasure hunt made just for them!
 They found some of the coolest gifts ever all wrapped up for them.
 Their favorite was the Ninjago lego t shirts!  I won't be able to keep these off of them!
 Special ice cream cones to celebrate their birthdays!
 The boys had grandpa and grandma full time and were in a state of JOY for 6 full days!
 Making homemade pizza dough with grandma!  Quite the assembly line of pure fun!
 And who doesn't like cupcake batter???
 Grandma made sure each boy had his very own dessert.  Canyon wanted a cake...
 Sawyer wanted cupcakes!
 Eating their special homemade pizza!
 The last day came way too fast and the boys were devastated to say the least to see them go.  After stories, the boys both cried and broke all of our hearts as they knew grandpa and grandma would not be there the next morning they woke up. 
 With tears in all of our eyes, the boys were able to come back downstairs for extra hugs and goodbyes.
Canyon did not want to leave grandpas arms.  I know they will come again but we miss them heaps and mounds and the memories that were made in those 6 days will last a life time and we are so thankful for them.  We can only hope Bend becomes a summer home for them in the future.
