Jersee smiles & Jaydee sleeps

Yes, she is sleeping.

Jersee's blessing

Jersee was blessed in the same dress that both Jaydee and i was blessed in.

One of the greatest men I know, my grandpa.

The 4 babies born this year.



Jersee at 2 months

oh Christmas tree.......

Instead of fighting the crowds on black Friday, we went tree hunting instead. We found our tree in the mountains near Heber so we could go with Jerilyn and Nate's family.

Down...set.....HUT

When I found out that 2nd graders could play flag football, I thought my boy is way too young. But Kevin did awesome and he was fun to watch. He even caught a pass for a touchdown.




Karl was talked into coaching the team. He decided it is a lot harder to coach football, but the boys loved him. He did a great job.



Go Templars!!!!!

It's a GIRL!!!!!!!

Since I have never actually go into labor on my own, we decided that Monday October 4 would be the day we would meet our baby. We got to the hospital at 2:00, but labor didn't start till much later. I was started on pitocin around 3:30 and went from a 4 to 6 in less than a half hour. That made my nurse think the doctor was not going to make it, so she pretty much cut the pitocin, which stalled my labor for 3 hours. I got a walking epidural (highly recommended by me) and the doctor broke my water at 6:30. After 3 rounds of pushing we were able to see that our baby was a girl. Jersee Sandra Cox was born at 8:51 weighing 7 lbs and 7 oz. and 19 inches long.



I was able to nurse her ten minutes after she was born. And that's all she wanted to do for the rest of the night.



My parents brought the kids the next day to meet her. They were so excited to hold her.





We were able to leave the hospital less than 24 hours after she was born.
We are so excited to have another girl in our family. She has been fun to have at our home, and has brought the sweetest spirit. The kids have all been so helpful and we have had so much help from family and friends. We want to thank everyone for the help and the support they have given us.

School already????

Normally I am ready for the kids to go back to school and be on a normal schedule......Not this year. Summer flew by way too fast. On the other hand the kids were way excited for school to start.
Kevin started 2nd grade.


Kort started his last year of preschool.


And Jaydee, I think she likes being home alone without her brothers there to bug her. Here is a picture of her the weekend before school started. She fell off a rock and caught herself with her head on another rock. I think all of my kids have had a goose egg this big.


We have also been enjoying the Sanpete county fair. We went to the rodeo where Kevin was able to go Mutt'n bust'n. He loved it and can't wait to do it again next year.

Waiting for their turn. Kort had a chance to go, but decided he wasn't up for it.

My brother and his family came to visit us for a week. It's been a whole year since the last time we saw them. Our boys were counting down the days till they were here. It was a very fun week. Here are the very few pictures of the things we did.

Seven Peaks



Hiking to the Y. After the hike we went to the BYU bookstore, Kevin was in heaven, he thought that was pretty cool.


Some of us tubed the Provo River while the rest hung out at Vivian Park. I am looking forward to tubing the river again when I am not pregnant.

Bowling in Heber by Jerilyn's new house.

All of the grand kids.
We also spent a day boating at Gunnison Res. Although the trip didn't even compare to last years we had so much fun spending time the family. We are already thinking about next years trip. Bear Lake here we come!!!!!

2 new rooms

We have been working on finishing 2 bedrooms in the basement for a while now, and they are finally done. We let the boys pick out the themes for their new rooms. This is what they chose.........

The Camping room (Kort's)








The BYU room (Kevin's)






They are still a work in progress, but I am so happy with the outcome. The boys are so excited to have their own rooms. They go to bed easier and even keep their rooms clean. It's so nice!!! Karl and his handy brothers did an awesome job.

Happy Birthday Kort!!!!

Kort's 5!!! I can't believe it. We had a family party at Palisades for Kort, Madison, and Alex. Kort felt pretty special.



Robyn made each of the birthday kids these Awesome cakes. Thanks Robyn!!!


On his birthday we went to the pool with some cousins.




We love the new slide.



Kort adds so much to our family. He has the cutest personality. He is so laid back and easy going, and says the funniest things. At the end of the day he asked me when his birthday was. I told him it was almost over. He looked down at himself and said "I don't look 5". He is so excited for school to start, even though he is still in preschool. Only one more year till kindergarten!!!
