Justin Time

Justin is such a fun little boy. He is very active and loves to run around the house. Here he is enjoying a banana.
Justin went into Colby's room where Colby was playing guitar hero. So Justin by himself put the other guitar on and was pretending he was playing with Colby. What a cutie.


As you can see in this picute, Colby takes this game very serious and doesn't notice me coming in with the camera.
Lets play Uncle Colby.

A day in the park

While mom and Caleb are still in the hospital, I decided to take the kids to the park. It has been raining a lot and this was the first day that it didn't rain. The kids had a blast. Justin tried out his muscles. Justin taking a break on the bench.

Colby swinging with Jusitn. The smile says it all.

Hey, Grandma Tammy look at me.
Climbing on the toy, what fun we had.

Let's build a train and go down the slide.
Justin had fun going down the slide on his own.
Let's go aunt Karrie.

After our trip to the park, we all went to McDonalds for lunch. It is fun spending time with the grandkids.












Second Day of Caleb's life

Caleb is so cute. We took the kids back in to see him today, June 19th. He is such a great addition to the family. Casey stepping in and performing daddy duty by changing the diaper.
Colby taking his turn on holding Caleb. He is afraid that he will break him.

The proud grandma getting her turn to hold the new little one.

Leah was glad to see her mom and spent sometime with mom and the baby. What a beautiful daughter in-law. I am very lucky.

First family picutre with the whole crowd, Justin wasn't to happy to hold still for the picture.

Justin wanted to try to feed the baby with a bottle.


Leah is trying to feed the baby, but isn't so sure about Justin coming to help out.

Leah feeding the baby. She is so happy to have a baby brother.

We enjoyed having the grandkids for a few days. They were excited to get back home to mom and dad though. Megan says they are really trying to help a lot, maybe a little too much.

Caleb Timothy Christensen

Today was the birth of our new grandson, Caleb Timothy Christensen. He arrived this morning at 6:32 am. He weighed in at 6 lbs 6 oz and was 19 inches long. Megan said that everything went smoothly. I stayed at their house with the children. They called me at about 2:45 to come and sit with the children at home. He is so dang cute. He seems to have lighter hair than the other two. What a joy to have grandchildren.

Kylee holding the new one. He is so precious. I was so excited to hold our new addition to the Christensen Clan.
Colby thinks that Casey should have 12 boys then they could be the whole varsity wrestling team for Uintah. Megan says keep dreaming Colby. Maybe Cade could get married and have a few. LOL

Justin wasn't so sure about this gaga(baby in Justin talk). He took sometime to warm up to the Caleb, but finally decided to give him a kiss.



Leah was so cute with her mom and telling her everything that Caleb was saying.




My beautiful daughter in-law, who has blessed our lives. Casey did a great job in chosing to marry this one. She is truly a great mom and we all love her.




Karrie is a proud new aunt and couldn't wait to hold Caleb. It was a fight on who was able to hold him first.




Casey is a great dad and loves each of his children. I guess I did okay in raising him.



Proud grandpa Vincent, he couldn't wait to get over to the hospital to hold the new little one. We had to pry him from his arms so we all could have a turn. He could have at least taken off that ugyly hat.




He is such a blessing to our family. It is so neat to hold something that has just came from our dear Heavenly Father. It makes the world a better place.

Yes, I would say that they did a great job in creating this beautiful child. I could never imagine that being a grandparent would bring so much happiness to our lives, but it does. I love each and everyone of them.
Welcome Caleb to our little clan. We know that you will bring us much joy and we all love you lots.

Kylee's Wedding Dress

We finally bought Kylee's dress yesterday. Kylee, Karrie and I traveled to Orem yesterday and finished some wedding stuff. We bought the wedding dress and shirts and ties. I am now broke again and need to take a second job. The dress is beautiful and we of course bought accessories. I think it would have been cheaper to give Kylee money and they elope. Oh, well at least I only have 2 girls to buy for. One is almost done and then I will have only one more.

Kylee's Bridal Shower

Kylee's bridal shower turned out fine. I was so stressed about it. That morning I got up at 4:30 to get ready to go and get my mom in Brigham City because none of my family was coming and none of them would meet me in Heber. I rushed out and got her and got back to get ready for the shower. I still had to make the potato salad which I did. I think it went well and Kylee had fun. She got wonderful gifts. I appreciate everyone that came to the shower. It was great to see Kylee. We put a princess crown on her and gave her a wand. She has always thought she was a princess. Her dad always told her she was his little princess. This is Kylee's dog Bella. She calls thinks the dog is her little princess.
This was her cute little nite from Karrie. Karrie thought that this would be a funny gift for Kylee.


Kylee had fun opening gifts. I told her that her apartment might be to small for everything so I could help take some of the stuff. She doesn't agree.



Karrie and some of the other little kids sprayed Kylee with silly string. It was quite funny.



Kylee had to stuff a piece of bubble gum in her mouth everytime she got a question wrong about Cory. She had 15 pieces in her mouth. We always knew that she had a big mouth.
























It was fun for Kylee and I hope the rest of them. Cory's mom and sister Lisa came all the way from Nevada to the shower and they drove all they way back that night. The reality of Kylee getting married is beginning to sink in. We love her lots and love to see what a beautiful young lady she has grown to be.
