Here is Doran is his six month picture that was actually taken when he was seven months. Seth and I called this his business card pose because he is leaning a shoulder in. He was WAY chubbier than Brock and had more hair.
I tag Sarah, Samantha (if your computer is working), and Niki!
Seth's birthday is on December 23rd so it always a little bit harder to get a fun party or celebration going. This year everyone who could went to dinner on the night of his birthday. The next night, Christmas Eve, was the Engman Christmas party so I brought his cake over there. I made this cake and anyone who knows him knows that he LOVED it!
Probably not the most appropriate picture, he just liked the icing!
Christmas presents! Doran is a big time blanky boy. He has carried this Lightning McQueen blanket around with him since he got it.
Here is just some of the Engman grandkids.
I had to get a picture of this. Brooks got sent to timeout during Christmas dinner for teasing Doran. He was telling people, "I am in timeout for 14 minutes because I am 14 years old." Nice...
Here is Doran and Brock playing with what is probably both of there favorite toy. They both laugh and push the balls in and just have so much fun!
Here is Doran in his new spider man pajamas and his train track. He was very excited about Santa bringing him toys but I know he doesn't fully understand because he told me today that Santa is coming to town.
Grandma Geneal gave him a sled and he had fun for about 5 minutes and then wanted to go in because he was cold!
Happy Birthday Seth! The boys and I love you very much and hope you have a wonderful 26th Birthday. You are the best Dad and husband we could have ever dreamed of having. Thank you for all that you do for us! Love you Daddy!!!
So Brock had his follow up appointment this morning. All the same stuff: yellow drops, the light, and exam and still not so much as a tear! The tear has healed but his eye could be red for up to four weeks! I was shocked. For some reason when she told me yesterday that it could be healed today I was thinking it wouldn't be red anymore. So when I saw how red it still was I was worried it wasn't healed. I will definately take the redness over it still being hurt though any day!
So I was trying to get a good picture of his eye and he decided to give me a big cheesey smile! It is my favorite picture of him yet! You can see the cute little gap in his front teeth, I love it!!!
The doctor today was an after hours doctor so we couldn't see the same one. When he came in the room he told me he had been reading the chart and read what had happened and wanted to know if this was a mean older brother! I was sad because I knew that would be everyones first thought, but Doran was not being mean! He was playing and make Brock laugh and did not mean to hurt him! He is such a sweet boy, but sometimes he just plays a little to rough.
I don't know of many babies who would have such a bad day and still be so happy!
For the past few days Doran has been obsessed about coloring. All he wants to do is color all the time. On Saturday night I scrubbed a 'mural' off the wall for about 45 minutes that he was very proud of. He asks me all the time, "Mommy, color paper. Please?" So today we went to Target and I decided to buy him a coloring book and crayons so he stops going through our computer paper like toilet paper. On the way home I gave him the crayons and the coloring book because he was begging for them. After about thirty seconds he started yelling, "Mommy help! Help Mommy! Please! Help!" I turned around and tried to figure out what was wrong and I realized he was coloring with the white crayon! I felt bad laughing, but it was so stinkin' cute! So I hurried and gave him a red crayon and he said, "Oh! Thanks Mommy." I love that boy!
Brock is doing good lately. He is finally finger feeding himself foods without gagging on it. His sleeping, not so good. He has been waking up a couple of times every night. I am not sure what to do! Look at his little curls. He is so handsome!
But the highlight of Thanksgiving for me (besides all the wonderful food!) was when Grandma played Guitar Hero! Isn't she awesome!!!
The Coldplay concert was last night and it was amazing! It was so much fun! There were two opening acts that were so boring, but thats ok. I wasn't there for them anyways. 
Our seats were really high up! There was probably only 10 rows behind us! Surprisingly they still weren't bad seats. We could see the whole stage and the other little stage they performed on. We could see all the screens (including these huge balls they had all over that were screens too, they were awesome!) At one part they went into the audience and played two songs. Just right there in the middle of the crowd! It was the coolest concert I have ever been too!
They opened with Life in Technicolor/Violet Hill. I had guessed they would open with Violet Hill and since Life in Technicolor is just instrumental I think I was right! They played almost every song on Viva La Vida album and lots of others from there first 3 albums, the oncore was Yellow! It was an awesome concert and I hope they come to Salt Lake City again!
I loved, loved, loved, loved Twilight! It wasn't one bit disappointing to me and I thought Robert Pattinson did a perfect job playing Edward!
So we had a group of 12! It was really fun. Lots of us had on this sweet shirt and let me tell you we looked way super cool. Actually compared to some of the people there we were super cool...
I just thought these pictures were so funny! You can see him picking them off the screen!
I am really excited this week! I am going to the midnight showing of Twilight Thursday night/Friday morning and the Coldplay concert on Saturday. I love Coldplay! I loved the first album parachutes, but then when a rush of blood to the head came out-wow! I knew they were my favorite band! I am so excited! This is my second time seeing them. The first time Seth and I saw them was at the MGM Grand in Vegas. I was in my first trimester with Doran, was sick, and had a pic line in my arm. I threw up the whole car ride down there... But the concert was awesome! I think this one will be even better because I absolutely love the Viva La Vida album!
Happy Halloween! All week we have planned on going to our ward's trunk-or-treat tonight and then around to family tomorrow. Well about 10 minutes before the trunk-or-treat we found out it isn't even our ward! The other ward had just left their sign up through our meetings. But we decided to go anyways. No one seemed to mind and we gave out candy too. Doran was very happy that he just had to say trick or treat and he got candy. He loves Halloween!
Here is Brockey in his costume. My Mom made it for me when I was a baby, then Brooks wore it on his first Halloween, and now Brock got to wear it. I thought it was funny because it is so far from the truth, he is an angel not a devil!
Seth and I were nervous that Doran wouldn't wear the hat because he hasn't been a fan of them for a while now. As soon as he saw Brock all dressed up and with his hat on he was very excited to dress up and especially for the hat. He wore it all night and if he touched it at all he would have us fix it right away. I just wish it was a cuter hat!
Here he is at the trunk-or-treat! So much fun!
Jayce always likes to be something different then the other kids on Halloween. This year she wanted to be a vampire bat! She was scary!
Then on Halloween night we made our rounds. We went to Granny's, Grandma and Papa K's and had chili and hot cocoa, and then to Nate and Samantha's trunk-or-treat. The picture above is by far my favorite costume. If you can't tell it was a headless horseman. It was so cool to see this person riding down the street! Here is Brock with Papa! He got pretty grumpy tonight around 5. It was a long day to him! 
Doran with his Grandma. And below both boys with Grandma. Doran had so much fun. This is really the first holiday he has gotten into and it made it so much fun. After we left the trunk-or-treat we went around our neighborhood letting him trick-or-treat. He loved it. He dragged his bag around and wouldn't let anyone help carry it. I am so excited to see what he does for Christmas!
We went to Hee Haws on Friday and boy was it fun. We had never been there before so I was surprised at how much there was to do there. Sarah and Samantha invited us and we thought lets make a party of it and invite the Yakiwchuks! I think everyone had a ton of fun. The slide was definately the most popular attraction. I went down it a few times and I gotta say when you get to the bottom, whoa, that hurts!
For Doran the funnest thing was by far and away the 'train' ride. They went two times and he still freaked out when Seth got him out.
The second time around Brock went with Brooks and he really liked it too.
Here is Jayce and Bella. Don't they look so cute!
You would never guess Doran liked it from his facial expression!
And the main attraction! Jayce and Jax went down it every way they could think of! It was pretty funny.
Here is Daddy going down with Doran and Gavin. Doran liked it at first, but then Brooks sent him down alone and he flipped forward and hit his cheek bone and nose really hard so he wasn't a big fan after that.
Here is Sarah with Tyson and Gavin and Samantha with Doran. She said he was fine until they got to the top and he saw me and started saying Coley Coley and then he saw Seth and was yelling Set Set!
Brock had a lot of fun or as much fun as someone who can't walk and do anything can have!
Here is the whole group! Yay!
