Chris and I after coming home from the pool decided to play soccer in the house.....our house has now been taken over and become the "smashball" playing grounds for the guys. WHAT!!?
Just being a showcase girl...
I love my family!
Austin's brilliant slip n' slide idea....
Started out as nice and innocent fun.....
still nice and innocent....
BAM! Course if you have Austin's mind you need some kind of danger....
Family Train....
This picture doesn't even do justice to the air they were getting. Austin was bruised all over by the time they stopped
Finally, they came to their senses and used SOME padding

Drew & Chase
After about TWENTY minutes of my dad and Austin arguing about the length of the cliff they measured with a ski rope......seriously.... I said who cares just jump already!
Unc Steve told Chase he'd pay him 100 bucks to catch a fish with his bare hands and stick it in his mouth...........you'd have to pay me WAY more than that to get me to EVEN think about it!!!!! That is wrong!
ahhh brotherly love.
Meg & Aust
My NBA Jam partner for all these years.....and the butt of our jokes all week long! Good sport!
EVERY year (without fail) for some reason, there are ALWAYS collisions with the front/back screen doors on the houseboat... I took it upon myself to make a 'friendly little reminder' for those with constructed eye sight..........English, Spanish, and Korean.......We didn't want to discriminate


We dressed up Meg's as Cindy Lou from the Grinch Who Stole Xmas, doesn't she make a cute WHO?


'Tubby' time on the houseboat.



All she wants to do for the past few weeks is eat her hands...
Not too sure about this, Mom.....

I love this picture.....This is the reaction you get when you blow in her face. Too funny.

Latest with the Mundays......


















Well while I'm waiting for my husband to get home from work I figured I could manage writing an update....(sigh). Lets see, whats been going on in our lives.......does anyone else feel like the months of May and June are just FLYING by? Maybe it's just me and adjusting to the whole 'being a mother thing'.....at first I thought I'd never have time to even as much as take a shower again in my life, but Kamryn has been growing so fast this past month and we are finally on a pretty decent schedule. I have noticed a lot of changes in her and I have to say I absolutely love this part of it. She is becoming very interactive and such a happy little baby. I was reading a post I wrote a couple of weeks ago, and realized how much she really has changed. She is smiling all the time and I'm learning a rested baby=a happy baby! She has a perma-smile in the AM. She is much more content and not needing to be held ALL the time like before. On top of all of this she LOOKS like a baby and not a newborn!!! She has her 2 month check up this week and I am excited to see how much she has grown. She's only waking up about once in the night to be fed. Which doesn't bother me at all, once is better than twice, right?? Anyways, I am loving hanging out with her everyday and watching everything she is learning.

On the other hand....Chris and I are not nearly as exciting to hear about... but he is doing great this year, as I expected, and he has had his hands very full and is busy busy. Thankfully, although the lack of seeing my husband these 4 months I know it is all worth it in the end : ) . And I love being able to spend lots of time with him during the school year. This summer has actually really been a blast. We have some good friends out here and done some pretty fun this summer(none of which I have taken pictures of!!!). I swear now that we have a baby I don't even think to take pictures of Chris & I, it's all about Kam's, BABY! Not that I was ever very good at taking pictures of us to begin with! That can be my new years resolution next year? Anyways, we feel so blessed, but miss our families so much. Btw, Congratulations to my little brother for surviving 13 years of school and finally graduating high school! Class of 09'! He is heading up to BYU for school and now my parents are officially 'empty nesters'. I was saying to my dad the other day that their kids lives are boring now and it's all about the grandkids! Kamryn and I are going out to Lake Powell this week with my family and I'll let you know how the flight goes with a 2 month old....?! Now I am just blabbing...Hope everyone is enjoying their summer!!

Is this SAFE?!




I love these two so much, & this is what you get when you ask Chris to hold her and try to get her to sleep......


the hairdryer.....


I'm not complaining it always works and they are so adorable together.....and now I have a cute scrapbook picture. (oh wait, I don't scrapbook!)

Also, Kamryn is getting in a fun little stage now where everything makes her smile....you know walls, tv, carpet...hahah I love every second of it!

Summa Time!!

















Well we have arrived in Virginia Beach, actually got here a few weeks ago, but like always I put off blogging until I finally realize how behind I am. We lived here last summer as well, and once again I have been pleasantly reminded how awful HUMIDITY IS!!!! UGH. Not a fan. I'm complaining and it's not even like smoldering hot and at its worst......even bigger UGH! We'll see how long I can handle it before I confine myself to the indoors!! Better get used to it if I'm gonna live in Tampa in the future like Chris says. Actually there is a lot to do out here and I've had so much fun already. First of all, I LOVE the wives out here! We have such fun girls, some of which I have been friends with for a long time and I'm so stoked I get to spend the summa with them! Speaking of, I really think you girls need to start blogs.....Secondly, we've started out tradition of Sunday game night and this is probably the funniest time EVER! Major husband/wife competition! Third, I'm so glad the beach is like 5 minutes away, even though I now have to haul like my house there just because I have a little baby to take care of too! Kamryn is doing great, we've had a few doctor visits for little things, but she is as healthy and happy as they come! She is now a little over a month old and weighs 10 lbs 6 ounces. Little chunk! She loves her food! And I love her little chub that she is finally getting. A few other things Kamryn loves....
-when Daddy comes home.....this is no lie, she'll be screaming her eyes out and Chris will get home, pick her up, and she just stares at him and quiets right down......nothing like Daddy's touch apparently.
-her hot pink pacifier....she seriously won't take any other one. Heaven forbid it should fall out of her mouth...or the screaming begins.

-falling asleep on your chest. Some nights this is the only way she will go down.

-lullabyes.....but if your me, I know about 3 words of maybe 2 lullabyes so this somehow turns into me singing church songs?!

-like most babies...the HAIR DRYER! ....Life SAVER! Ps my husband still loves the hair dryer.....totally another story.


Anyways, there are obviously so many things we love about Kam's and I can't complain that she only wakes up once, occasionally twice at night. She usually sleeps pretty good at night, but doesn't particularly enjoy daytime naps. She is such a cutie though and we are so in love with her. Chris is doing great, life is good! Here are a few pictures of Kamryn...I need to be better about remembering to take pictures of US.
Ps. Chris and I are planning a trip this fall to somewhere tropical and FUN! If you have any personal suggestions feel free to inform us!!! We're thinking Sandals, Jamaica...??(just like The Office, baby!) We are looking at our options.

How could you not love this little baby?






I have been meaning to update my blog with mothers day/baby/VA Beach updates, but I just have been so busy, but updates to come! But I couldn't resist putting pictures of little Kam's up...she just is so stinkin' cute and I just LOVE her.

I must be lucky because Kam's is such a good little baby!

Our Little Cutie Pie.....


What are you looking at??






One last thing....with the new addition to our little family I really am going to make my blog private like in the next day so if you haven't sent me your e-mail before please do...I want to keep in touch.

Shes Here!





Kamryn Grace Munday was born April 21, 2009 at 6:46 PM. She weighed 7 lbs 11 ounces and is 18 inches long. She has got a full head of beautiful light blondish/brown hair (surprisingly!?), is healthy and is such a little cutie pie!!

Here's the story.....
I went into the hospital at 9 AM to be induced, and they started me on pitocin for about 5 1/2 hours until they broke my water at about 2:30 PM. About an hour later I got the epidural (and oh my goodness most wonderful thing EVER!!!!!!!!) and she arrived only a short 3 hours later, after only 24 minutes of pushing. I have to admit for as much as I anticipated the labor and delivery to be the worst part of the pregnancy....I was so wrong!! It honestly was not bad at all and I feel so very lucky for that. I felt great right away and have ever since! We feel so very blessed to welcome this sweet baby girl into our family.....how much closer can you get to heaven than that...seriously? It is the most amazing experience in the whole world. There is nothing like holding your own child in your arms and you would instantly do ANYTHING for them. We are so grateful that everything went smoothly and are incredibly thrilled for a BEAUTIFUL healthy baby and no major complications. She couldn't be more perfect!! I will post more pictures when I figure out where Chris put our camera, but here are just a few.....
WE JUST LOVE HER!

Here comes baby Kammie!!!!

So for those family and friends who have been texting/wondering if I have gone into labor yet....the answer is NO : (..... but tomorrow they are going to induce me a few days early being that my family is in town and my husband is moving to Virginia Beach in a week. I am going to be joining him in a couple weeks where we will be for the summer. Anywho, we wanted to bless her before we left so good old Dr. Parker (GOOD MAN...I'm telling ya) is allowing me to be induced a few days before my due date. I'm 3 cm and 80% effaced so he agreed that'd it'd be okay. I don't know how this got to be a paragraph story, but bottom line....getting induced tomorrow...will post pics asap.....
XOXO
