It's a.....

BOY!!!



Any name suggestions??

For the 4th this year we had our first Vaughn and Elaine Huntsman Family Reunion! It was so much fun and I cannot wait to do it again! We went to Lava Hot Springs in Idaho. My parents rented a yurt (picture below) it was like a big circle enclosure with 4 queen beds, some couches, a tv, and a refrigerator. Some of us stayed in the yurt while some stayed in tents. We all arrived on Thursday and we left early Sunday morning. On Friday we went to Lava's hot pools and swimming pool. It was a blast! I was surprised at how much Kobe swam that day! On Saturday we went to Soda Spring, Idaho for the festivities. In the morning there was a 5K race that everyone ran except Yuyi, Kellee, Averi, Kobe, and me. I guess they had fun doing it and to our surprise my dad was the fastest out of all our family coming in about 7 min. before everyone else, way to go dad! And the funny thing is everyone else had been working out and running preparing for this race and my dad did nothing except golf a few times a week. After the race we watched the parade. I forgot to take pictures of the parade so sorry. After the parade we went to the park in Soda where they had lots of booths set up and foods stands galore! It was awesome because all the game booths were FREE!! Kobe's favorites at the park were the fishing game, getting balloons, and riding the train! After the park the guys went golfing while the rest of us took naps! It was a fun day but we were all exhausted after that. That night we watched the fireworks. All in all it was a great Family Reunion and 4th of July!

Kobe's Claim to Fame

I registerd Kobe for Regis and Kelly's cute baby contest in Feburary and of course he did not win but he did get an honorable mention for being a cute baby. Well anyways parenting magazine called me a few months ago and asked if they could put his picture in the July issue of parenting magazine. So if you happen to be reading the July issue of parenting magazine turn to page 83 and you'll see our little boy in there!

Conversations with Kobe

Here are 2 conversations I had with Kobe yesterday.

Kobe:"Mom?"

Me: "Yeah Kobe"

Kobe:"I need to check my e-mail."

Me:"Ok then go check it."

Kobe goes into the computer room and pretends to type on the computer he comes out a few minutes later.

Kobe:"Ok, I'm done."

Kobe:"I have big hair."

Me:"You're right your hair is big. What kind of hair do I have?"

Kobe:"Long."

Me:"What kind of hair does daddy have?"

Kobe: Thinks for a minute then replies, "Circle hair."

Kobe is so funny he just makes me laugh! I love this stage he is in right now!!

Spiderman

Lately Kobe has had a amazing imagination and loves pretending to be different things, usually he is animals and he tells me which animal I am.  He is just so much fun and he makes me laugh daily! Well he has been into spiderman recently, even though he has never seen him, and he likes to dress up like him.  So today he walked into the room just like this! He is so clever and cute, I wonder where kids get there great imaginations from, too bad I don't think like this anymore.  Oh and by the way just wanted to let everyone know that I'm pregnant! We are so excited to have an new little one in December!

Bowling

Kobe has been asking to go bowling ever since he played wii bowling.  So yesterday Yuyi and I decided since is was a rainy day and nothing better to do we would go bowling. It was so fun and Kobe was so excited. He first tried to roll the ball down the lane but it got stuck half way through, I guess he needs more upper body strenght first. Luckily they had this wire ball rack that all he had to do was push the ball. Kobe had a great time and Yuyi and I had fun watching Kobe's excitement! At the very end I was putting on my shoes and I see Kobe place his ball down and kick it down the lane before I get to him! Luckily he did not hurt his foot and amazingly his ball made it all the way down.  I guess we should stick with soccer. 

Easter

Sorry this post is a little late I have been away from a computer for a while and also been a little lazy with blogging. So here are so Easter pictures finally. Since Yuyi is gone Kobe and I went up to my parents for Easter sunday.  Kobe had a blast doing the Easter egg hunt and receiving his basket from the Easter bunny.  I love that Kobe is getting old enough to start to understand why we celebrate these holiday's.  I am truly gratful of the Savior's atonement and resurrection for us all, we are so blessed.  I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday!
