Baby Will

This is William born into our family on October 17, 2008! We are so excited to have another boy. Right here he is 3 days old and ready to leave the hospital. Richie and Mikey loooooooooove Will. The first time they came to visit Will in the hospital Rick and I were ready to get it all on tape. Rick had the video camera ready, Will and I were positioned just right and we heard them coming. We waited, waited, waited (we knew they were cleaning their hands with the sanitizer just outside our room)Then all of a sudden we hear...AHHHHHHHHHHHHH AHHHHHHHH AHHHHHH AHHHHHHHH AHHHHHH! It was Mikey, always poor Mikey....we waited to see if it would die down quick....it didn't. Rick went running out there to find that Mikey had reached up to push the button to sanitize his hands and it had dripped right into his eyes! OUCH! Well needless to say Will met Mikey, the real Mikey right off the bat, screaming and yelling and always hurt. Welcome to our crazy fam baby Will.

My Sweet Baby

Taryn and Baby Will at the Dinosaur Museum. Chad's family and Cindy's family came into town for Thanksgiving and we took all of our crazy kids to terrorize the museum. They sure loved the Dinosaurs. Behind Will and I the kids are panning for gold. They loved it but no one loved panning for gold more than Chad!

Richie is a PROUD big brother!!

Rick is shooting everyone with a high powered assault rifle/stick.

Anything can be a gun, right? From left to right: Richie and Mikey Sweetnam, Andrew "Druiser" Stanley, Darren Jensen, Kiley and Kaylin Manzer.

The campers. There is room for a few more if you still want to go to Aspen.

While we were camping we had some hail and lots of rain. This brought some flooding to our camping area and made for some great fun in the mud. Pictured is Mikey, and "no" mom did not help him get up. Hail, rain and floods in July? Gotta love it.

This is Mikey. Look at that kid's hands. My boys sure don't mind getting dirty.

Pictured are my two boys Richie and Mikey, 5 and 3. We found this huge stump and thought it would make for a great picture.
