Our Duplicate

So I'm sure people might be wanting some recent pictures of Dagon. Problem is, our camera broke, or is at least out of commission until we've diagnosed why it won't turn on. In the mean time, we aren't able to take any quality pictures of the baby, except with our phones, and those are all very crappy pics. So, I thought I would post pictures up so you guys know what Dagon looks like now at two months old.

If Dagon were wearing a pink bib.

This would be Dagon if we had that couch still.

Dagon in a pink dress with a bracelet. (Really, knowing Rylan though, am I THAT far off!??)

Dagon snoozing in girly clothes.

If Dagon stole Rylan's old bunny.

6th Picture

I think I got tagged by Sally for this too, but haven't done it b/c honestly didn't have an "album" let alone a 6th one. So today I spent quite some time organizing my pictures into albums and tried to do them in chronological order so that it wouldn't be considered cheating. But really...maybe I could have found a more fun photo. But, it now is the 6th picture in my 6th album. Maybe I should have cheated...

Here we have Kadence taking a bath. Sucking on an elephant trunk. We lived at Adam's parents place at the time. The end!!

I'm not gonna tag anyone. But I did do the 8 things one on my blog. I agree. We need more stuff on the blog.

Here are a few things I would like to see....

1. A picture of Melinda getting fat. :)
2. Kadence is a little over excited to go to Grandma and Grandpas from Missouri in Sept and she's ecstatic about the play house. She asked us if she could sleep in it. She's so excited and kept asking us what it looked like, so I told her I'd ask Grandma to send a picture of it for her. On the blog is fine. She also wanted to know if it was pink. :)
3. A picture of everyone that is in Rexburg at their respective jobs hard at work. :)

6th Picture from 6th album........tagged by Melinda......

Ok....so I really wasn't tagged for this one personally, but it is the tag that I like best and can do without any thought. Besides, when I looked to see what my sixth picture in my sixth album was, it was a fun one! I couldn't just NOT do it!


So this is a picture taken on Temple Square grounds during General Conference the year we took Jessica Petersen with us. Seth and Melinda went with us to Salt Lake, and we stayed with them and Shelly and Adam in Rexburg. (Those are Melinda's feet sticking out by Jessica). We had such a fun trip.....climbing the Y, playing in the snow, going to the west coast, playing on the beach, camping, exploring ....yea....good times.

I don't think I know too many people with blogs that have not been tagged for this one, but I will see what I can do. Our family blog will hopefully be used for some of these, thus breaking some of the monotony of it. (Those tagged HAVE to follow through.......that is the rule! No "weaseling" out of it. Sorry it is all the same ones......I really don't know anyone else who has not been tagged.)

For this one I tag:
1. Stephen Claybrook
2. Shelly Schloegel
3. Samuel Claybrook
4. Shyanne Bowman
5. Scott Claybrook
6. Julia Willis
7. Kelli Lopez
8. Marcie Davis
