Baily tagged Kaily so here we go.
Name/meaning behind it: Kaily Marie Willis. Clint was cleaning the Celestial room at the Provo temple when I was pregnant with her and the name just came to him. When he told me about it at first I didn't like it, but it was 2 am and he had just woke me up, so there is my defence. Then when I told my best friend what we were going to call her she reminded me that I had a dream before my mission that I had a little girl named Kaily. That sealed the deal for me. The Marie part is my middle name which is after my late grandma Kemp.

Back on July 12 Clint and I went with some friends to Raging Water, a water park in SLC. W
e had so much fun. Clint and the boys all got burned while waiting for the waves to 
pick up at the wave pool. They were nice enough to watch the kidos while the girls went on some slides. We went b/c Jen and JC's daughter, Alex was performing in a dance thing there.
My kids crack me up! Yesterday I went shopping for a new swimsuit for Kaily, she has grown out of hers. When I got home she tried it on for me so I could see if it fit or not. As she walked away with her swimsuit on she said, "Mom this is just the cutest swimsuit ever. I think you should take a picture." She then got the camera so I could take pics of her in her new outfit. She then puts Conner's new hat and her new hat on her and says, "Mom, aren't we just adorable." She gets up to dance and as she is dancing tells me, 
"This is just so cute, I am so lucky." I wish you could see her. She is seriously one of THE most animated people I know. She always has a great story to tell me and they are always full of detail. The other day she was really mad at me and said, "I want a new mommy and daddy, Sarah and John." Don't ask me who Sarah and John are b/c I have no idea. She just comes up with these things. Conner has started this weird grunting thing. He does it all the time. And he has found his tongue and learned how to spit. He thinks it's so funny when you are trying to feed him baby food to get it all in his mouth stick his little tongue out and shower you with baby goodness. I try not to laugh, but I think it's funny too, especially when it happens to Clint. Conner loves to have things in his mouth. Clint was
feeding him pears and Conner's binky was sitting on the tray. Well, Conner decided he was done with the pears. So after a spoonful went into his mouth and Clint tried to coax him to take another bite he graped his binky and stuck in his mouth and then just stared at Clint. Conner is getting so big and not at all doing the little baby things he used to. He is growing up and while I'm happy about that, it also makes me sad not have him a baby anymore. I love my kids and the funny things they do all the time.
