Thatcher at Playgroup playing in the Sprinklers!

Once a week I get together with a group of girls from our ward and we have lunch and let the kids play for about two hours. It is such a good time and since all our kids are around the same age, it is really nice for them! We joke that playgroup might be more for the moms than the kids, but we won't tell them! During this playgroup we let the kids play in the sprinklers and Thatcher absolutly loved it! He had such a good time, he was the last one playing!

Cute Diaper Cake!

My cousin Jessica makes Diaper Cakes and sent this one to us for Taggart. It is adorable! She makes them and ships them anywhere, so if anyone is interested...let me know!

The Reeds come to visit!

This is my good friend Kaylyn Reed who I knew when I went to Ricks College (when it was still Ricks College). We went on a special exchange program together the fall of 98. Now here we are 8 years later and between both of us we have five kids! We had a great time visiting and catching up before her family moves to England in a week!

Stickers!

Thatcher and I like to play a game where I put lots of stickers all over him, and he pulls them off. He especially loves it when we put stickers on his nose!

This is new toy Thatcher got for being the big brother to Taggart! It is an elmo work bench and he absolutly LOVES to play with his new tools, just like Daddy!

Labor Day Carnival

While I was in the hospital, Todd took Thatcher to our neighborhood Labor Day Carnival. It was was a lot of fun and Thatcher loved to slide down the giant slide, bounce in the big bouncy room, and eat lots of cotton candy.

These are our good friends Jared and Susanne Hill. Jared works with Todd and graduated from BYU's EE department as well. They just bought a house three doors down from ours! We are very excited to have them so close!

Todd's Birthday

This is a present I made for Todd, it is all the reasons why I love him!

Todd turned 24 on the 5th of September, and because he doesn't like cake had two Birthday Pies.

Taggart is here!

On September 1st at 3:20 pm Taggart Gordon Bishop was born! We are very excited to have him join our family. He weighed 8 lbs. 2 oz. and was 19 1/2 inches long. The c-section went great and I am feeling better every day. We are very grateful that he arrived healthy and that we now have two cute sons!
