..My little piece of heaven..

Christmas Eve

2012-01-25T22:04:00.001-07:00

The boys were so excited all day. They kept asking over and over can we open just one present and I had to tell them no over

and over not till dark. We went out looking at the Christmas lights when it got dark, there were lots of very neat ones and I love love seeing all them. I always feel sad that Christmas is coming to an end. I love the before excitement, with the lights, trees and shopping. The actual day is always great but sad that it is all over also for me.

I had a big surprise gift planned for Leonard to have flares put on his truck. He came home early from swings and the truck was gone, so I had to tell him the big present I had been secretly planning. He was very excited and even though plans didn’t work out that night for them to be put on. He still loved loved it! The were put on a few days later and his truck looks amazing!

The boys opened there one gift and were eager to go bed. So much to be excited for the next day was Christmas.

I watched the Santa Claus waiting for them to get deep asleep so Santa Claus could come. Treyton was so cute and got his cookies and milk ready then headed off to bed. It was a great night I wish could have lasted longer.. my kids won’t be little forever.

Christmas goodies!

2012-01-03T21:59:00.001-07:00

I love.. love… gingerbread everything! I found the cutest little tree ornaments that were a Grinch set that I thought would be darling on a gingerbread house!~ The boys were so excited to make it, especially Treyton!~ After 4 years of having gingerbread decor… I have never made

the actual little gingerbread men cookies. Crazy I know since the only thing I really like to cook or bake is cookies or cake! The night of the kids official break for Christmas we got home from shopping in Evanston. Treyton and Brendan wanted to make the gingerbread house so I said go for it! Ledger also joined in the making process. He was a stinker though and made the boys kind of mad ha ha! He thought it was more fun to put icing on his brothers face, and eat the candy rather than put on the house. Treyton also has been worried and telling me that Santa is coming in two days and we had no cookies

for him to go with the milk. So I decided I would make my first Gingerbread ones! They turned out darling I think! I got these awesome pampered chef icing decor things that work so good. I will never use the old bag thing again! The cookies were yummy I ate more than my share I couldn’t help it the baby wanted them

ha ha! So here's to a great Christmas night of baking! It was such a fun night with me and my boys! I will remember these day always! Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas…Santa Claus is coming to town………

HO Ho HO

2011-12-30T20:45:00.001-07:00

I took all three boys to see the big guy Santa Claus. Brendan asked a lot of questions this year and so we sat

him down and let him know all about Santa. He took it very well and was glad to be moms helper this year. I had a feeling

Ledger was not going to like Santa he isn’t big on strangers. Especially a guy in a red suit and white beard. He screamed and held on

to me for dear life. So funny! So I stood in the picture which I must say is a awful one of me! But after weeks of showing Ledger he now

says and points at any Santa Claus and calls him HO HO! Its stinking cute, he still don’t want to go near him though. Maybe next year.

Treyton asked for a Ipod touch and Ledger we told Santa a big toy with wheels!

Christmas BREAK

2011-12-29T20:42:00.001-07:00

Yeah the day finally had come! Dec 22 they had half a day at school with there class room party’s and movie. Brendan got to go see Arthur Christmas at the theatre in Lyman what a fun half day of school!! Treyton had lots of fun with Santa coming to the school and filling there stockings they had made! They do small gift exchanges in a circle one for the boys and other the girls. They pass around the gifts till the music stops and that is the one they get. He had a ball! Brendan’s class also did the gift exchange and he got a neat little Lego set!

They were so happy to come home and play in the fresh snow and build a cute Snow man! I can say that the break officially had a great kick off!!

Yeah!

Winter Pictures

2011-12-29T20:35:00.001-07:00

I love the Christmas cards with family pictures there the best. So I took the boys over to our favorite place and

got a few shots of them! It was a clear sunny day and perfect! I love them! Getting three kids to look and smile is not easy!

They did it though and we had a darling card! I wanted it kind of Grinch looking I am really happy with how it turned out!

Merry Christmas!

20 Weeks!

2011-12-29T20:22:00.001-07:00

I made it half way there!!! I am so happy and baby is doing great! Since I am back tracking and behind on this post I hit 20 Weeks Pregnant actually on December 14. I am now 22 weeks.

But I am proud of myself! The months and days have been scary, stressful, sick, sick, and yes sick! But I have a great doctor and good medicine that have really

helped me so much!

I am getting really big I always poof out really fast I don’t know why I just do! I feel huge like I am 8 months already. I get tired really easy my body is getting to old to be pregnant!

We still don’t have this little guy a name but I think I might have found a winner we both can agree on.

That name is “Trever” its not a fancy original name, or a old boring name that Len is after. But we both like it so far and its really cute!

It goes well with Ledger. I am so excited for my appointment Jan 4. Its the big 4d one I can’t wait to maybe get a glimpse of what he looks like.

I am still doing Progesterone shots and praying they work again and I stay pregnant to at least 36 plus weeks. I got him the cutest pirate crib set with two

little boy pirates on it. Its perfect since Ledger and him are going to share the large back room. It also goes really cute with all Ledgers jungle stuff! We are getting new carpet soon and then the decorating will begin! Can’t wait!

I crave anything Mexican, I now love the restaurant Red Robin YUM! OH and as much mint anything and root beer!

I officially have 15 weeks to go I can’t wait to see my new little boy!

Pajamas!

2011-12-29T20:06:00.001-07:00

So as a tradition that started when I was a kid that my mom did we always got new Pajamas for Christmas and usually on

Christmas eve. I have since started that some one with my family and always give them as there gift they get to open that night.

Well this year I changed slightly I couldn’t help it! I was out shopping and found the cutest Grinch t shirts for the boys and flannel bottoms

that I decided it be more fun to wear them the whole month of December rather than the just Christmas eve. So I let them have them! They were

very excited and so cute! Ledgers Grinch set still fit from last year so it was great, but I also got him a stripe jammie set as well that said Santa's helper on them!

I think this is a funner tradition and decided I will do it this way every year! I also got a cute pink top with presents on it and flannel bottoms, and red plaid ones as well for Leonard! Christmas is just so fun!

My new Craft addiction!

2011-12-29T19:56:00.001-07:00

This all started with the first words I got at a cute shop My Favorite Things in Evanston. They spelled Wicked.

Well from that point I found out where to get the wood and how to make them. After my first class with my Grinch, well I

fell in love with making them and even made some that I sold! The more I make the more creative I get! They are so fun! I am now making a Welcome that matches my family below and Kiss for Valentines Day. I am also going to do the new baby boys name in them and the boys! I am so excited they are so so fun!

I also made some very cute Grinch runners and pillows that I really love love!! I also made cute ornaments for my tree using the same method as the letters!

Daddy and the Boys~!

2011-12-27T22:23:00.001-07:00

I was busy sewing and finally had enough for the night. I walked out of my sewing room to find the cutest three boys sound

asleep on the couch! Awe I love them!! So CUTE..even the cat was asleep!!

Samurai

2011-12-27T22:17:00.001-07:00

Treyton has been working is little heart out reading in school and taking tests on the AR books so he could

earn his Samurai and when all the kids in his class get there's they get to have a big Pizza Party!

He has worked so hard every week telling me how much closer he is getting to his goal and getting

all the buttons on his banner at school needed to earn the Samurai!

He was so proud of himself walking out the school doors and down the sidewalk to the truck with the

white Samurai on his head! He had finally earned it! I am so proud of him. He is a very hard little worker

and tries hard to get what he wants. He is so happy! Says only 6 more in his class to get them before they can have

there Pizza party! How fun!

Treyton’s Christmas Program!

2011-12-27T22:09:00.001-07:00

Treyton was so excited for his program he told me the day before all about it so excited!!! He was up bright and early for school the next day dressed in his nice clothes ready for it!

I had to make him change he thought he was heading straight from school to the high school to perform. It really was cute he was so excited for his program.

After dinner that evening I had him get his cute nice stuff back on and fix his hair. I wanted a cute picture of him in front of the tree. Little Ledger couldn’t

stand just Treyton getting attention and hoped in a grinned the biggest grin ever!! He is a little stinker if I try and get a picture of him there is no way

your going to! I am glad he jumped in it is a very cute shot of them both!

The program was cute my favorite part was Ledger clapping through out the songs at the end of each one! He was happy as can be. I loved the last song “Silent Night” my absolute favorite Christmas song it was so pretty! What a fun night I love Christmas time!

My Christmas Decoration’s 2011

2011-12-27T21:54:00.001-07:00

I absolutely love the Grinch and Gingerbread decor for Christmas I went all out and think my house was so stinking cute!

I will remember this year always! Here is my cute house! I love more than anything to decorate and the more the better to me! Bring on the

ribbons, bows, lights and it is Christmas!!

Baby makes a family of six!~

2011-12-07T21:50:00.001-07:00

It was few days before back to school at the very end of August that I just wasn’t feeling that great! I was few days late but figured it was coming and

wasn’t going to waste money on a pregnancy test and have it say the usual NO! So I just waited another day passed hmmmm, well then two more passed!

The boys started school bright and early so eager and excited to wear new clothes and see there friends! I got ready and headed to the store I was getting a test! I had to prove that I was right I wasn’t Pregnant!

Well after an hour later and two test! I was shaking and in shock! Both were positive in seconds! NO way I couldn’t believe! I had given up even trying and wham it worked!

I talked to Leonard he to was in shock! I was so scared and worried about everything!!!!! I didn’t tell anyone except for my family and didn’t want others knowing till I was roughly 13 weeks. I went to my first apt at 6 weeks baby was perfect! Tiny and heart beating it was a miracle. I am due May 2. But knowing my history we just want to make it to 37 weeks which puts me around April 18! Oh boy right by Bobby, Janice and Megs birthday!

The weeks went surprisingly fast! I was sick but it has been controllable with medicine. I had a feeling from around 9 weeks that it was a boy. With every visit the baby got bigger and healthier! I will never forget the first heart beat we heard at just six weeks! It was truly a miracle!

I am now 19 weeks! I was right it is a boy! BOY oh Boy I cried at 14 weeks I was hoping that I was wrong and would have my little girl, but the doc was pretty sure it was a boy! I was sad and happy at the same time. Its really very hard to explain!

I went back at 18 weeks and he for sure was a healthy little boy in there! He was so cute moving his arms and legs! His little hand by his face it really was pure instant love! I can’t wait to hold him! I got him the cutest star sleeper to bring him home in today for when the big day in April arrives!

I have three names I like getting Leonard to like is a challenge but I will hopefully figure one out! So far here they are:

Bennett

Breckan

Leighton

I am leaning towards the first two but I guess time will tell!

I crave everything JUNK and I mean JUNK

If I eat veggies, fruit, meat I am sick within an hour!

This baby likes

mint choc chip ice-cream

Bread

Pasta

Chicken

Root beer

Cherry pie, Pumpkin pie I ate tons in the beginning weeks I couldn’t get enough of it!

any kind of candy!

I am in trouble ha ha! I been somewhat bummed that my maternity clothes from Ledger are too small, but I am just

enjoying my last pregnancy and taking the small stuff in stride I can diet later!!

I started my Progesterone shots! I feel dizzy, sick, cranky and tired! But I will do anything to keep him in there till 37 Weeks!

I had to laugh one day after I been to the store and saw what I had bought! All JUNK I guess that's what happens when you send a prego girl to the

store hungry! I had to take a picture it was too funny!

I am almost half way through! I am blessed and happy to have one more special baby that chose me to there mom!

I love his little kicks and cannot wait to hold my sweet baby boy!!

I don’t think I have ever been so happy in my life!

Here’s to 19 Weeks and making it to 37!

Turkey Time!

2011-12-07T21:16:00.001-07:00

Thanksgiving came so fast this year I cannot believe it! One day it was Halloween and the next Thanksgiving! I wasn’t really in the mood

for the big day except for the food! I had been craving it for months! It was fun I went to my moms and had a nice dinner with my brother Scott, my aunt Linda and her husband Ray. Just a small but nice dinner!

We watched the parade all morning its just not thanksgiving without Macys parade on! I got my tree up and decorated. Len has helped me lots and the boys bring in my containers and put lights up on the house! We are so happy this year that Christmas will be great! I love my house and feel totally happy sitting by my tree and relaxing warm in my cute house~!

We usually go to Salt Lake and shop and eat at Pf Changs but this year with the boys racing, we just got a hotel and stayed as a family in

Rock Springs! Leonard surprised me with the most gorgeous roses ever!! He rarely buys me them I think he has maybe 3 times so needless to say

I was very happy and surprised! They were my favorite color roses ever pink/peach heaven!! They lasted good two weeks also! He then took me the Monday after the races Christmas shopping for the kids in Ogden

and we had a fun day together! It was great I love him so much!! He takes such good care of me and spoils me everyday! I am so lucky!

Boys indoor race~!

2011-12-07T20:58:00.001-07:00

Brendan and Treyton did there first indoor races this winter in Rock Springs. It was quite the event

besides minor bike trouble and freezing cold weather plus snow. They had fun. I froze my butt off and took off after half the day

and went to the show with my friend! Breaking Dawn it was the absolute best one out of the twilight series! I loved it!

Boys did well the first day Brendan got a 2nd place. Treyton took 5th he was bummed he didn’t get a trophy but you don’t always win!

They had fun at the hotel with Leonard after swimming. They said that Ledger loved loved swimming for the first time and didn’t want to get out

at all! Sun they hit the track again. Leonard had found me a warm air vent to sit under and it was heaven after the day before sitting in the stand froze!

Brendan was on fire and took first in both his races! woo hoo and he got free goggles for getting the whole shot! He did awesome! Treyton also did well coming in 4th and 6th he has a lot of boys in his group to compete with and I think he is doing great! He tries hard and we are proud of him!

It was a fun weekend at the hotel and races! Next one won’t be till February!

HaPpy HaLloWeEn!

2011-11-13T20:47:00.001-07:00

This year since Halloween fell on a Monday we had quite the fun weekend before the big day! Friday night there was trick or treating in Ft. Bridger at dark. The boys were so excited to go! It wasn’t very warm and I was sure it would scare Ledger to death. So I dropped the boys off at the entrance and me and Ledger waited in the truck! It was great they came back giggling and said they had fun and wasn’t scared! So I then headed to Lyman to the town hall for the to go through the spooky haunted hall! I dropped them off and within minutes they were both running back to the truck scared to death!! They said that chuckie was in there and that was it they wanted out!! I had to laugh it all sounded so funny!! But they got there good scare for the year!

The next day Saturday Mountain View high school had a fall carnival with games and cake walk. So I took all three there dressed up! Ledger loved it and wanted all the candy he could get from the ladies! It was fun!

Sunday morning came and the boys had been begging me for days to carve there pumpkins! So I caved in and said go for it! Leonard even got in on it and helped them scoop the guts out! Ledger laughed and squealed pulling out the slime and seeds! It was really cute! They both did a great job! Treyton made a pumpkin with a chopper bike. Brendan wanted Jason’s hockey mask so I drew it out the pumpkin and let him carve it out! They did great!!

Ledger loved loved them and showed everyone them on the table!

Halloween hit Monday and the boys had school with there class room parties that they said were great! I made brown bag brooms I saw on TV for Treytons class they turned out really cute and were fun to make!

We headed out Trick or Treating around five! Leonard took the day off so he could go with them for the first time in years! I am so glad he did too! He took little Ledger around behind the boys! He was so so cute saying Trick Treat just after a few doors he had this candy thing down!! He giggled and laughed, smiled all the way to the next door he was so so happy to have candy!! I will remember it always you forget the cute little things they do that age and it was great to see him so happy and cute!!

Brendan is are Halloween lover also he watched all the Jason shows and then Michael Meyers Halloween! He couldn’t decide on a favorite so he was both them this year it was crazy scary. treyton a zombie dirt bike rider very very cute! Little Ledger was are little Monster Frankie! I loved them all!

Are little boy’s big day came on Sept 24 and was lots of fun! I can’t believe he is already two the days just fly by!

I loved the smurfs as a kid and was so happy when they brought them back out! The boys all love the cute

little blue guys and one gal! Ledger was up and ready ripping into his gifts not shy one bit or afraid! He has got

it down, he would get so excited every time he opened a gift and saw new toys! It was a fun and special day!

I think his favorite part was the toys and balloons! He tried to kill the cake with his hands while we were trying teach him to

blow out the candles! It was so funny! He started at us like we were nuts singing to him also! I hate for him to grow up wish

the days would slow down!! Happy #2 Birthday Ledgie pooh we love love you!!

I love them! I have my scarecrow in the middle now and it is just perfect for fall!

Leonard's corn did amazingly well and we got fresh corn to eat! I really enjoyed watching all this grow all summer

and turn my yard into such a pretty place! Its heaven!

Back to Skool!~

2011-10-01T20:30:00.001-06:00

This year is a big change around here! Brendan is going to middle school for 5th grade, no longer in urie elementary its crazy how fast time flies! I can’t believe how big he is a growing up! We were all worried he got Mr. Potter and everyone kept saying oh he is so mean, hates talking, on and on it went ! Brendan was worried the first day of how things would go. I prayed for the best worried to we have to switch him out of there if it was as horrible as they made it sound! He came home and with shocking words LOVES his teacher, the school and everything! It was a miracle! It has now been a month and he is still happy!

Treyton hit 2nd grade happy and ready! He loves his class has some of his best friends in there this year with him! His teacher is awesome! I am so glad we are going to have a great year of school!! They were decked out in FOX jeans just like Dungeys!! LOVE them and Fox shirts, DC shoes and Etnies! They were so cute as they headed out!!!

23 Months!

2011-09-06T19:10:00.001-06:00

Ledger is almost two I can’t believe it! He is such a little boy no longer a baby at all!

He loves being with dad working on the dirt bikes, in the garage and going for rides! Its so cute he is such a daddy boy!

He is learning to say lots of the things its really cute every time he learns a new word. His favorite things to say are here it is, dad, rock, work, bye yaw, hi yaw, wow, grandma, grandpa, I don’t know he even puts out his hands!! He also does all the dirt bike noises he can make!

He loves going to grandma and grandpa Larsen's house! Its his favorite place to play besides home, as soon as we pull up he gets a huge smile and giggling says here it is! Meaning grandmas house!

He fell out of his crib one morning and scared us to death. We debated taking it down and into his toddler bed in his room but I just couldn’t do it quite yet! Makes me to sad. So far he has stayed in so until then fingers crossed.

Ledger also has decided that eating at the big table is much better than in his high chair! He screams every time we try and sit him in it. Sad sad he is getting so big! I came out one morning to find him sitting happy as can be eating his peanut butter crackers at the table. Little stinker he knows what he wants and he is going to do it! It was so cute.

He loves to give hugs and kisses before he goes to bed it is one of my favorite sweet little things he does! It won’t last long so I treasure the days he does it.

He is a little dare devil he rides is power wheels truck and four wheeler like crazy and even rams porches, fences and ditches. He hasn’t learned to stop and turn very well yet. Crazy little guy just keeps plowing forward.

He also loves slides and will go down any he finds no matter how big or who is watching or waiting he is going! He scared me by bailing down one with know one there he just squealed and laughed at the end and ran back for more! We have are hands full!

His hair got so long and blonde this summer. It is so so so cute that I don’t have the heart to cut the blonde locks of yet! He just might have really long hair before I can do it~~! I just know once we cut it off his sun bleach hair will be gone along with summer. Its so cute!!!!

I can’t believe he is going to be two! This past two years have flown by its crazy! I love you Ledger stay small awhile longer!

Ledger saying I don’t know! Also wearing dad’s work glasses

upside down! ha ha

Lyman Arena Cross

2011-09-05T21:36:00.001-06:00

It was great to have a local race put on here in Lyman! Way less travel and expense. It was really nice to be so close to home :)

The boys got to practice for two nights before the race and had so much fun riding with all there friends. There school friends don’t

normally go to the bigger races so it was a change for them!

They did so well and had lots of fun! Brendan got second and got a huge lime green trophy! He was so happy his favorite

color and everything! Treyton took third and got a very big trophy also! It was lots of fun hanging with our friends and

watching all the kids race together! Great summer night! Grey Davenport even came to ride in are small town!

The boys were so excited to see him again! He is a awesome rider! I sure hope to see him in the pro AMA someday! I forgot to mention he was at

the wild west series race in Rock Springs and the boys went over and met him! Told them they had the same last name. Grey was so surprised said after all the states he has been and races, never heard anyone with his last name! It was so cool I bet somewhere along the way he is related LOL! The boys got his autograph on there trophies and number plate! They were so excited to meet such a great rider they watch on TV that shared there last name! It was a very special day for them!

School is starting I am so sad summer is over. But it was a great one so I guess time must move on!

SuMmEr Time!!

2011-08-29T21:49:00.001-06:00

This picture says it all! All the memories I have from being a kid in the summer have popsicles and Kool-Aid! The smell of fresh cut grass, and wet pavement while

laying out in the sun to dry from the slip an slide and sprinkler! HEAVEN

I sure hope my kids have great memories like I do!

Wild West Racing!

2011-08-24T12:13:00.001-06:00

The boys are doing so great riding! We headed to Rock Springs for them to ride in the Wild West Series!

This series travels all over Utah and Wyoming through out the summer months! Next year we are going to try and get to

a lot more of them!

We had a fun and crazy weekend camping/hotel. Are water line broke and 10 pm so we had to sleep in a Hotel the

second night. We never have much good luck with campers seem like something always goes wrong dang it!

It is a crazy schedule they have to be up by 6:30 to practice, then a riders meeting, then line up for races. Treyton hates the

wait seems so long to him. For each day they race twice also and they combine the total to get the places.

The boys ride there bikes and play with lots of kids around the state there riding! It has been great for them to meet new friends

and kids doing the same things as them! I love it!

Ledger is starting to like the camper and sleeps at night finally! He loves the dirt and the bikes he is are wild one!

Brendan took 4th overall the first day! Which was great he is in 65 beginner and there is around 7 kids that raced. Second day he took

2nd and scored a awesome trophy! We are so proud of him! He has came such a long ways in riding and doing so great! He just started on

the clutch rode bikes.

Treyton did awesome also in the Heads up shaft 50 class! He took first both days and was ecstatic he finally had a trophy and it was huge!

It was so cute to see his hard work pay off!

I am sad summer is over long winter before they can race outside again!

I am so proud of them! There doing awesome!

Treyton’s new bed!

2011-08-21T23:19:00.001-06:00

I got this awesome bed and dresser at a Yard sale! Totally the best find and deal ever! I am still shocked

I landed on such a great deal. I am not usually that lucky. I also scored a second bed just like it for Ledger

later on woo hoo! Yard Sales ROCK!

Treyton is so much like me. He loves everything clean and organized its really awesome I love it!

His room is perfect now! I added the border of choppers also! So PERFECT! I love his room~

It is motocross HEAVEN!!

Cute little Kitty

2011-08-16T22:37:00.001-06:00

Our crazy new kitty is quite the wild one! I am hoping he calms down and gets more friendly!

As for now all he wants to do is play. He is cute when you sleep and sneaks' up and lays down. The boys sure

love him and glad to have a kitty again! They still love and miss there Cat Mows!

Moto and Brendan sleeping and being crazy in my basket!

Summer Movies

2011-08-16T22:24:00.001-06:00

Rock Springs has the neatest movie theatre! Since we been spending a lot of time over there racing and dirt bike practice, we been getting to also see some shows at there theatre!

It was great I loved Capt America. I was SHOCKED that is was that good! I loved and want to see again, probably the only super hero

show ever for me to like! I have seen them all with Brendan a million times!

Brendan has been so excited for months waiting for this show to come out! He has watched the old one over and over with my Dad! He still loves his super hero guys probably always will!!

Since we all know that Wyoming and fall weather is very unpredictable. So we caved lol and started building toys and letting him learn to ride his first little bike! He loved it!!! It had to be the cutest thing ever, he screamed when I put it in the trunk to take home and laughed with joy to ride it after we got home! It was amazing I will never forget it!
The Ford truck just like daddy's except that it is grey! UPS arrived and all the boys were in on the build of it! It was so so so so CUTE!!! All my boys building my little man a truck to ride in! I never been so happy!

Hogle Zoo

2011-07-24T00:39:00.009-06:00

Leonard has been doubling a lot now that he is released back to work! He decided to take his day off for once. WE were happy and decided to take the boys to the zoo in Salt Lake City! It was crazy to think that the last time I had been there, Treyton was a brand new preemie in the NICU at LDS hospital, so sad how time flies he is now seven! I hadn't been there in forever! Ledger had only been to one zoo the Phoenix one but he was too little to remember. So we went! It was so hot and fun! The boys loved all the new dinosaurs through out the park that sprayed water! Ledger are little stink hit everyone that walked by in the Legs and one lady in the face. I was so embarrassed he is such a stinker. He loved loved the zoo though, played in the water, looked at the animals, banged on the glass to wake them up oops!! Treyton's favorite part was the park he is so silly right now.Brendan loved the monkeys, snakes and spraying animals. But it was a great day! The Phoenix zoo is so much neater and way more animals, palm trees! I would have to say there are the best I been to so far!! But it was hot beautiful day with lunch at Red Robin where I had the best Mexican salad ever!! It was a fun day the boys had a blast and so did I! It was a nice break from home and day to day chores!

Racing in Rock Springs round 1

2011-07-24T00:13:00.005-06:00

Life is crazy!
Treyton has loved motorcycles for as long as he was around 2. I always thought he the one to take control and go crazy on his bike. Well things tend to change for now! Brendan loves riding he is doing so so well we are absolutely shocked! He goes really fast and its starting to make me worried! He has also mastered jumping small but it is a huge achievement! I am so proud! They raced again in Rock Springs and Brendan was so excited if he got 1-5Th he would win a trophy! He did so great and came in sixth both rounds who needs a trophy he did amazing considering it was only his second race!
Treyton I felt so so bad, we thought he would be riding in a mini comp aka everyone gets a trophy and on the little track. Well about 20 minutes before the race we learned his bike was to big for that class we were bummed!! Poor kid it was awful! I felt horrible! He never rides on the big track and now he had to in a expert class oh geeze!
He was brave I tell you, after many pep talks from his dad and Brendan he did it! First race came in 11Th and the second 12Th. But I was so proud he just rode on that big track and did so well! He is very brave!
Ledger is are trooper after a bad allergy attack and a good nap he was off and ready to play and watch the vrooom vrooms and brothers it was a very hot day!! He did so well better than me I was heat exhausted and nerves shot scared and worried for my boys!
We been going back and forth over there practicing on the track for the next race in Aug! I pray it goes well and they are okay! It scares me! But they love it and it is exciting!They are doing so great! Brendan is so fast and Treyton is really learning well and even starting to jump a little. Until next time.....

Every house he goes he tries on there shoes he has a fascination with them, just like me he he, he tried my pink flip flops on and I barely got a picture. It was so stinking funny he he~!

~New Kitty~

2011-07-16T13:34:00.006-06:00

My brothers cat had five baby kittens about a week after our mows past away. At the time I did not want another pet and either did the kids! They cried for weeks and missed mows terribly!! Time went on and Maegon posted the kitties on facebook they were so cute. I still wasn't ready. After a weekend at the Gorge the boys I should say. Went with my parents and brother fam. They heard all about the kittens again. Once they got home begged me to go look at them and get one. They were ready. We went and I couldn't tell them no and took the black and white one they had. Meg had named him Minnie Me due to the "M" shape on his forehead! He was so cute! We have now had him a little over two weeks and changed his name to Moto. He is still very little and wild little kitten. I am hoping he calms down some. Boys love him and are very happy~ Even poor thing gets tortured from Ledger loving on him.

4th of JuLy!!!

2011-07-07T00:23:00.004-06:00

We had a very busy fourth of July weekend! It was allot of fun with tons of fireworks!
Saturday night the 2ND of July we went to are neighbors next door and let off lots of fireworks. Brendan had lots of fun letting stink bombs on us and bottle rockets off with Morgan he played till nearly 12 am! It was great with campfire and drinks.
Sunday July 3rd we went to a great friend of mines house she really has the funnest kid back yard any kid could dream of!
There is a fort, skateboard ramps, hot tub, and swim pool, plus trampoline! The food was so good her husband Todd made the best Jambalaya ever!!! There was brisket and cake, shrimp and salads to die for! I really had so much fun! Plus the kids did to they swam in her pool and hot tub, sang, jumped on the trampoline and climbed the fort! I LOVED her house!
We went out later that night to turtle hill and let off more fireworks! It was so cool. The kids climbed the mountain or hill and and just all ran about having a good time with sparklers and neat fireworks what a great great day!!!
July fourth!! Wow began early getting ready for the parade in Ft. Bridger. Treyton was so excited and ready for candy. Brendan loved the army guys who throw little army toys. Ledger was just happy with a piece of candy totally oblivious to the parade behind him! It was overcast and sprinkling but really not bad and a great small parade.
Later went to my aunt Linda's for a BBQ and to watch the town fireworks from her house. Ray got out his power chair to entertain the boys. Little did we know it would also entertain Ledger he was so funny he had that chair mastered and loved backing it up and hearing the beep beep sound.
The food was great and we had a small deck fire, roasted marshmallow's where Leonard had some down his beard and had us all laughing at the perfect line of white down his face!! The fireworks were so pretty!!
It was one of the best fourths I have ever had with loads of fun everyday! Ledger loved loved loved fireworks said oh wow over and over not scared one bit, it was the cutest thing ever!! He really is not afraid of anything! I am sad summer is flying but with fun like this it is well memorable!

Flooding

2011-07-07T00:07:00.003-06:00

I have lived here almost 30 years and the flooding is crazy! I have never seen Ft. Bridger have water flow through the whole thing like this ever! The water is high everywhere and there is still snow on the mountains! When I drove by and saw all this water I was in shock all I could say was WOW!! Wow!!! WOW!! It has been a week and the water has gone down, Yay so glad for the community it was kinda scary. I am glad I took pictures of all that water it was so crazy!

Swimming Lessons

2011-07-06T23:39:00.004-06:00

Summer is here and swim lessons have started. This year was a bit different with just Treyton doing them. Brendan has passed off all the levels and no longer needs to go. I was worried Treyton would be sad and want big brother there but to my surprise he just went on his way and was a big boy! He is growing up so so fast! He loved his coach who then broke his collar bone and got a new one but he didn't care loved her too! It was great fun for him, he was so excited to finally go off the diving board and into the big pool. He did so great and passed of the final level in the kiddie pool and is now ready to hit the deep one! I am so proud of him he is such a sweetie and getting so big!!

Fathers DaY!

2011-07-05T22:48:00.002-06:00

Fathers day came and went so fast this year I hardly had time to prepare for it! Its always so hard to find the right gift and when and where! So this year I just took the boys to our local store and let them do the shopping this time around.
They got my dad a cool superman hat and DVD, fishing lure.
For Leonard a BBQ grill cover and cleaner, a budlight hat with bottle opener since the kids said he loves Beer LOL!! Also a cool chopper card and fishing stuff!
Then we hit Benedict's and they had to have that cake for there number one DAD!!
Leonard worked the morning of Fathers day but we celebrated that evening.
The boys sure missed him back to work now that he is released from his back surgery to regular work again.
It was a fun day!

But we headed down to Ogden with the Camper and stayed overnight in it! It was loud Ledger wouldn't sleep scared of the trailer he didn't want to sleep just leave to the truck! Poor Kiddo! Bikes started practice at six am wow it was crazy from there on out! With running them to practice and back when it was there turn to race!! They both enjoyed riding and are looking forward to the next one! They are busy busy riding to get better at it! Leonard built a track in the back yard that they practice on daily its really neat!

~Vegas and MoM DaY~

2011-05-29T16:03:00.004-06:00

This year on Mothers Day weekend we got tickets to the finally AMA super cross races in Las Vegas. Me and Leonard just went and left all three boys with my mom for three days! I had so much anxiety about leaving my little Ledger that long I wanted to cry! I have never left him overnight let alone three days. We left and I felt so bad for leaving him. But he was happy and playing with grandma.
We stayed in a really nice motel at the New York, New York. It was so big with a sauna and everything. This was my gift from Leonard. It was amazing I loved every minute we stayed up people watching and drinking and gambling a little down in the lobbies and had a great time.
The next day shopped for summer clothes for us and the kids. I was so so hot! We went from snowy cold Wyoming to 96 degrees. I couldn't believe the heat I was so hot and sick, but it was all worth it!
The day of the race we had the best seats almost front row right in the middle of the track. We walked around and got t shirts for the kids and in the pits to see the bikes and riders. But I couldn't take the people or the heat and headed back to the stadium.
We walked in and all the 450's were in practice! Yeah Dungey! We sat and watched all the practices even the little kid class they were so good little riders and cute to watch!
Later in the day we hit inside the stadium along the wall to cool off and people watch aka drink. It was so relaxing I loved it!
The race was awesome Reed and Dungey were in the top it was great!
We headed home the next day I was happy to go home after such a fun time. But I missed my kids like crazy and it was Mothers Day!
We made it to my moms and Brendan was crying he missed me so much! Ledger ran to me shocked like where you been and Treyton packed his stuff to the car. It was cute they had little gifts made from school for me! It was the best Mothers Day ever great weekend and come home to my kids!

Easter came really fast even though it was at the end of April this year, the weather has been so cold with rain/snow mix that it still feels like February or March rather than May now. The boys begged me to take them to the Egg hunt in Ft. Bridger all day friday. I told them if it was nice weather or at least half way decent I would go. The day of the big hunt Treyton woke me up yelling mom its nice can we go???? So I had mom join me to help out since I can't be in three places at once due to there age groups. We headed over and for the first time in years did the Egg hunt without any snow it was a total miracle!! The boys did great! Treyton said he was getting the mother load and he wasn't kidding! He got 27 eggs!! Wow he was so happy~ Brendan did great too with nine, and I helped little Ledger he was happy with just one to hold but accomplished getting five. It was very cute!

Later in the day I boiled two dozen eggs and let the boys go to town! My little Artist Treyton loves painting eggs he calls it! Brendan made Capt America, the hulk and all were yellow, blue and green no pink or purple! Treyton was very creative making rainbow ones and dirt bikes. I didn't have Ledger dye eggs I really didn't want my floor or walls dyed maybe next year when he is older.

The Easter Bunny hopped through late that night ..in between Brendan so eager, he was up and down checking if he had come half the night!~ You would have thought Santa was coming he was so excited!~

The bunny left Eggs with dirt bikes, skateboards and rock guitars all over the house and even snuck there real eggs out of the fridge to hide here and there. They got lots of candy, and toys from him. I got them outfits usually shorts but for the older ones stuck with jeans since we haven't had any heat yet. I also got cute chore jars from a friend in town for them to earn money each week for helping me out!

The day was great the sun shined and it was actually the most beautiful day we have had all year! Truly amazing I loved the whole day, that followed with dinner at moms with the family!

My mom made the cutest little bunny baby for me this year I just love her!!!

It was a great Easter and Spring Break! I loved it and ready for flip flops and SUMMER now!! Bring it on!!!

Spring Break

2011-05-01T19:38:00.004-06:00

Spring Break hit and I decided to run the boys to Rock Springs to see Hop about the Easter bunny! The show is so so cute!! I just loved little E.B. It was such the perfect show to get ready for the next days of Easter holiday fun! I loved it and so did the boys, there theatre is so big and nice makes me want to move. It was a great way to Kick of there Spring Break!!!

Meow Mows!

2011-04-29T09:41:00.005-06:00

Are family cat got really sick and passed away April 16Th! He is so missed!! Brendan has been so sad checking his grave and talking to him every other day. Little Treyton couldn't sleep in his bed for four days without his bed partner, it was so sad he had to sleep on the couch. Meows loved Leonard and ran from the field when he came home to greet him. He jumped up on him like a dog when he patted his chest, he really loved Leonard and followed him everywhere. We only had Meows five years. He is forever in are hearts and loved!

~Ledger being Silly~

2011-04-15T21:16:00.005-06:00

Easter coming has been really fun with our little bubbie! He plays with the plastic eggs for hours. He puts them in the buckets, taking apart and back together and of course throwing them all over.
He also thinks that the bucket is a hat and walks around with it on his head giggling running around! It has made us all giggle!
He is so much fun this year, I am looking forward to Easter egg hunts.

18 months!

2011-04-05T08:29:00.005-06:00

I just love my little boy! He is growing up so fast. We are so lucky to have him in our life and be my baby boy, I can't express how happy he makes us all!
He is our little stinker he loves to get into everything and make messes. The garbage, toilet and cabinets are his favorites. We have now locked up just about all of these to keep are house cleaner and him safe.
His favorite past times are:
***Going in rooms and shutting the door...come find me!
***He loves his Lego blocks builds and builds and of course empties the entire bag all over.
***He loves his blanket now he drags it all over the house and hates when I try and wash it and he sees. I have to be sneaky and get it in without him seeing.
***He already is a total boy and loves to be out in the garage with the boys and dad. He has a fit if they go out and leave him in with mom.
***He has figured out how to take his shoes and socks off and is now his favorite thing to do as soon as we get going in the car. He loves all shoes and is always finding new ones to try on. Even if there grandma's, uncle's or dads he loves them all!
***This little guy is a climber. I don't remember the others climbing onto everything. He is so silly to when he gets on top of my coffee table or containers, he makes this loud squeal talking jabber...look at me I'm king of the table. We have to teach him not to climb he has fallen off a few times and gave me and Leonard a heart attack if he was okay. Luckily he has been!!
***Ledger don't care much for kids his age, and is mean to them. We are working on this too, hopefully he comes out of this stage!
***Leonard has taught his to give kisses before bedtime. Its the cutest thing ever sometimes he slimes ya with his tongue and other ones he just puts his head really close and mouth to your cheek! Aww hes so cute!! We love him!!

He is changing so much everyday. Its such a joy to have him and play with I love him so so much and so thankful he is with us as a family!!

I really wish he could stay this age forever!!

Only God Knows Why??

"An Angel in the book of life wrote down my baby's birth. And whispered as she closed the book "too beautiful for earth."

"These are my footprints,
so perfect and so small.
These tiny footprints
never touched the ground at all.
Not one tiny footprint,
for now I have wings.
These tiny footprints were meant
for other things.
You will hear my tiny footprints,
in the patter of the rain.
Gentle drops like angel's tears,
of joy and not from pain.
You will see my tiny footprints,
in each butterflies' lazy dance.
I'll let you know I'm with you,
if you just give me the chance.
You will see my tiny footprints,
in the rustle of the leaves.
I will whisper names into the wind,
and call each one that grieves.
Most of all, these tiny footprints,
are found on Mommy and Daddy's hearts.
'Cause even though I'm gone now,
We'll never truly part."

Only god knows why are babies heart stop beating and chose to leave instead come to be with us as a family. The doctor don't know why I have now had two miscarriages within a year of each other. I am very sad not sure of trying again but need time to heal and move on with life. This baby I saw at 6 weeks tiny and heart beating will always be in my heart as my child even though it didn't make it to earth to be with me maybe someday I will meet in heaven. For now my heart is hurting goodbye my little baby!

My new Leperchaun Mom made! He is so dang cute!

My holiday tree~!
This year came and went so fast I almost missed it! The boys were so excited to go school and see if the Leprechaun's had come to there school. Treyton had made traps in his class hoping to capture one of the naughty green men searching for gold. He came home happy they left some plastic gold and escaped the traps. As for Brendan they hadn't done much but flip the desks over and move on to other classes. I usually do green food and desert but wasn't feeling up to it. Maybe next year. Ledger was cute in his green pants and happy playing on his four wheeler. It was a fun day I love march since my two babies are born then. Spring has started but not the weather yet.
Ready for days of sunshine and warm temperature's!
My mom made the darling Leperchaun guy I just love him to pieces! He is my favorite March decoration!!!

Treyton is 7!!

2011-03-19T20:23:00.012-06:00

My sweet Treyton turned seven I can't believe! His birthday is the 11Th exactly four days after Brendan's. It is always a long wait for him now since they got older we have decided to celebrate on there actual birthdays and when brothers comes first it is so hard to wait for your when there so close. Its a big week at our house! He didn't want to invite friends from school he is really shy and just didn't want to have to hand out invites , but he wanted his neighborhood buddies over and buzzed on his bike to deliver those ones. His party theme was Wii Mario cause Luigi rides a dirt bike I tried my best to make a Mario land cake it was fun!
Treyton was very happy that morning ready to open his gifts I set out on the table! He loved his Travis Pastrana toy motorcycle and his Nerf gun thing.
We also got him a new pedal bike that was really neat orange and black with flames his favorite FLAMES!! Plus for his new motorcycle bike he got new decals with his last name on them and number! They already went the rounds on their bikes before the party having a ball! I took him and got balloons and a ty doggie like Brendan's in the afternoon its just not a party without them!It was a great night!

All the kids came later in the evening and we ate Pizza and loads of cake and Icecream. They all ran wild playing Nerf tag with velcro vest that the bullets stick too so when you hit them you win more points! They were having a blast, they also bowled on the Wii. Treyton got lots of cash, cute fox hats, and games for the PS2.Cake stayed in one piece this year which he was glad! After last years. I love love my Treytor Patator!!! Hes such a artistic and hard worker, hope his day was great!

Happy Birthday #10

2011-03-08T21:12:00.008-07:00

I can't believe my first baby is already ten! I sat thinking about him being born and rushed in life flight to McKay hospital in Ogden and cried the whole night not knowing if he was going to be okay! He was born just after midnight and we were so happy we like the number seven so we wanted him to make it the 7th of March to be born and he did!! He was a strong baby and only had to stay 9 days in the NICU and came out strong and happy! He was born early at 34 weeks so his lungs were wet and he needed air and meds to get them stronger for him to survive.
It was terrifying night that I will never forget. My first baby!!

He got very spoiled for his birthday this year. Leonard looked and looked on Ksl for a good Kawasaki dirt bike ...if possible for him since he had outgrown are other bikes. We found a great one and stashed away telling Brendan it was a junker and we didn't get.

He was so excited for his birthday. The weekend before we took all the boys down to Boondocks fun center. Since Treytons birthday is only four days away we let them pick where to go and eat dinner.
It was fun night with yummy food from Olive Garden. My only regret is always bring your stroller Ledger was running away every minute and a handful!!

Brendan decided this year to have friends from school come to the party. It was LOUD seven boys in one house can really make some noise!! But they had a blast playing tony hawk skateboard game on PS3, eating pizza and Ice cream cake. His birthday theme was Tony hawk this year him and treyton are both really into riding skateboards it was perfect!

Brendan has wanted Jason toy off Friday the 13Th forever since before Xmas. Santa messed up and probably couldn't find Jason ha ha and got him Michael Meyer's from Halloween that he also loves. I am a wimp and still get scared watching Freddie in Friday the 13Th I really don't know why he loves it!
He is really into scary Halloween stuff right now he kills us with his little fads from BIG trucks, superheros, jack sparrow, Harry Potter, punisher and now Halloween all of them. He really is into drama I wish they had a school program for that he loves to be other characters.
So I bid and bid on a Jason toy on eBay and finally won! I was so relieved you wouldn't believe the people after these scary little toys!

He got lots of gifts, the cake was to die for! Sandwiches from Subway and Pizza and a great night of skateboarding with his friends!
Happy Happy Birthday my big big BOY!! I love you!
I wish he would never grow up!!

We are so Blessed!

I do not have a face to see,
or put inside a frame.

I do not have soft cheeks to kiss;
I don't yet have a name.

You can't hold my tiny hands,
nor whisper in my ear.
It's still too soon to sing a song,
or cuddle me so near.

But all will change come October 25,
when they say I'm due.
I'm your new son or daughter;
I can't wait till I meet you.

All I ask between now and then
is your patience while I grow.
I promise I'll be worth the wait,
because of all the love we'll know.

So as you're waiting patiently,
please pray lots of prayers for me.
I cannot wait to be a part
of this wonderful family!

I am Pregnant and so excited! I found out day after Valentines and I am now 6 weeks plus~ I been so scared and every worry has come to my mind for the past two weeks, not to mention I took 7 pregnancy tests all positive. I saw tiny baby and heartbeat yesterday and can't find the words how excited and blessed I feel~ I wanted to cry and jump for joy all at the same time!

((((Please!!!! Please!!))))) Do not post on my facebook about the baby I do not want to share my news there yet but only here with close friends and family! Please honor our wishes and do not post on the public website facebook!~ Thanks a million!

17 months WOW!

2011-02-25T21:07:00.006-07:00

Life has been crazy busy and Ledger is growing up way to fast!!

He finally has decided that toys are fun and will play with them! I thought this day would never come. His favorites are trucks, motorcycles, phones any kind real or toy! He really shocked me when he started playing with his walker toy he got for Christmas it was so so cute he makes motorcycle noises vroommmm vrooomm as he pushes it as fast as he can go around the downstairs.

He no longer has any formula or milk in his bottle. ((Yeah)) The swing is no longer in use! I finally got him going to take naps in his crib and a long one for two hours!! He also sleep in his bed without having the swing rock him to sleep at bedtime, I been reading little books to him before it and he really likes them! Its sad the swing sits there empty but I am happy he is content and in his room where it is more peaceful to sleep and we can make more noise than before without him right there in the swing.

He is a little talker he saying and has started saying new things like...done, gone, down, don't, go, vroom vroom. He also knows how to tell us when he wants juice or treats he begs at the cupboard his cups are in or goes to the fridge here here. Or if he wants treats tries to break into the pantry which is now child locked ha ha! He also tries to climb in his high chair when he is hungry and we don't get the hint he is such a cutie!

Since I mention food and the highchair he has also mastered eating with a fork! We kept giving him baby ones that were plastic and he had the hardest time so I finally gave him a small real fork and within a day he had it down! So cute watching him stab his food and munch away I love it!

He is really smart and learns fast. He loves to watch motorcycles with us and American idol. He is so content with the bikes and his favorite part is when they take off! During idol he spins in circles another new thing Brendan taught him and dances he really Loves music! He is so much fun for us everyday!!
Leonard was tenderizing meat the other night and Ledger was just busy busy watching him hammer the poor meat to death. The next thing we knew he had found a rubber spatula out the cupboard and was on the floor pounding the floor with it just like Dad! It was so dang funny he just cracks us up!!!

He is so mischevious and sneaky you have to keep your eye on him constantly or he will really make a mess!

We just love our little Bubbie!!!

Valentine's Day

2011-02-20T14:18:00.006-07:00

Valentines was great this year I had no stress what so ever! I hadn't got the boys anything and Leonard called and said he wanted to get them stuff! Yeah for me I didn't have a clue this year and valentines really isn't my favorite holiday! I was so relieved he wanted to go woohoo for me.

The boys did there valentines and I put them in cute little bags with ribbons for there classmates. They were excited to go and have there parties. I usually do more parties at the school but this year has been so hectic I just did Halloween my favorite.

Leonard surprised us all literally this year and really did a great job spoiling us!!
**Treyton got motocross socks, and gloves, candy
***Brendan...funny story but he begged for a week to buy Halloween II we kept telling him no, no, no! Then he wanted to rent it again no. He was so bummed we wouldn't let him. He pouted we have no clue why this is his new obsession but it is so....
Leonard surprised him with the movie on Valentines he hugged him four times so so happy and has watched four times since. He also got motocross socks!
***Ledger was easy and very happy with a great big heart balloon and sock monkey! He plays with that balloon for hours and wrestles it on the ground it is so funny he is such a wild, tuff, ((boy)))!! We love to watch the things he does.
**I also got very spoiled and he totally surprised me chocolates, and a new PINK phone!!! I love love love it! I can go on Internet now and facebook right from my new touch screen phone. It was a million times better than flowers. I am the happiest lady ever!!!

Leonard also got a Sirius satellite radio from me and he got a new phone also, but he loves his radio a lot more I think than his phone! He is not big into technology things.

Happy VaLeNtInE's Day 2010!!

Month for Treat's

2011-02-15T20:56:00.000-07:00

It has always been a tradition in my family on every holiday ex specially Halloween and Valentine's day to make sugar cookies! I loved to make them as a kid and had so much fun decorating them. In the past year I have slacked off and felt guilty with being to busy... I have not kept up. So I decided I was taking time out of my day no matter what and on the day before Valentine's day this year we made them! Treyton joined in and out did me his are the cutest and most creative cookies ever I love love them he is very talented. Brendan has now decided he is too old to participate in cooking making it was kinda sad but I understand hes growing up. Still sad though!

Every year grandma Dolores sends the boys a large chocolate heart! It was so cute this year with all there names. I got them all by it for a picture so I can send to her in Arizona. Plus I wanted a picture before it was demolished!

We never eat it all but the kids love it and know every year it is coming, its one of there favorite things at Valentine's!

Super Bowl!

2011-02-11T20:29:00.004-07:00

So I am not a football fan and to be honest never watch it! This year a friend inspired me to start team towels and so I started out with Broncos and the Chicago bulls! Plus many..many more. Then it lead to the Green bay packers for a new friend in Rock Springs!
The team did so well they ended up at super bowl this year against the Steelers.. she couldn't have been more happy! Her favorite team for years!
I watch the super bowl every year for the commercials and half time! I can't help it! But this year I rooted on my friends team the Packers! It was a great game and very close I loved it! I think I just found something new to watch on TV ha ha!! Go Pack! Go!!!!
Great super bowl game! Green bay won!!
These are Maria's towels!

Crazy hair/ Pig out?

2011-01-31T20:54:00.004-07:00

Today was Crazy hair day at school for the boys! They do this every year where the kids have Pig out! Which is reading,reading,....reading! Plus the part they (love) dress up days like Pajama day, twin, cowboy and favorite team. They really enjoy going and seeing everyone else done up, it really makes the reading to them the only fun part!

I read so much as a kid I couldn't keep the library fresh with new books. I still love to read and find it sad that my kids despise it so much! It makes me guilty like I did something wrong as a parent. So I started reading to Ledger the best thing I can do for him! I can hope right. We are working on the others and I am hoping eventually one will become a reader like me!

The schools to me push kids to read to early these days, and takes away the joy out of reading for fun. I really wish they didn't have so much pressure sometimes.
I am really pushing and hoping they will learn to read it is my new goal to accomplish!

Here they are going to school! Brendan had half green, orange and just plain messy hair!
Treyton did his Mohawk and wanted it sprayed red, then one side green and the other orange!
Darling they were so excited to go today I love days like this!

Here is them last year I never got around to posting so I wanted to add it here! They have changed so much in just a year!

CheeseCake Factory!

2011-01-28T22:06:00.005-07:00

I love to eat out and try different places, all thanks to Leonard who always had to drag me into restaurants to try things that I just knew I wouldn't like! Boy was I way(WRONG)!!! I have always been a picky eater and little by little he is changing that. So now I am pretty good about trying things and have gone to many different places and it really makes eating out so much more exciting!

My all time favorite desert is cheesecake! It is literally to die for...better than chocolate.... and absolute heaven on my list! Something about it just makes you feel so much better to me there is know other desert better than it!

I worked at Little America and to this day they have the best cheesecake!! Ever! Every once in awhile my sweet Leonard will stop and get me a piece on his way home from work for a surprise! I love it more than anything so sweet!!

So I have wanted to eat at the Cheesecake factory for quite a few years LOL crazy huh what took me so long! Its in Salt Lake and we usually go to Ogden, and the one other time we went to try it the line was so long and the boys were starving that I caved and left!

But finally yesterday day out shopping with Mom I made a plan we were going there and waiting in line no matter what! She was all for it and excited we went and shockingly there was no line and we got in right away its beautiful in there, the menu is a manual or book full of delicious food with tons to choose from and it was so yummy! We had Avocado egg rolls, bread, fancy chicken Parmesan, and Reese's Pieces cheesecake! I have to admit the cake was not my favorite, but I am going back for my birthday and having the traditional best piece of cheesecake ever I hope!!!

Mom, me and Ledger had fun going from fabric stores to craft stores all day! We even found a knew one to hit that we had never been to before~! With tons of fabric to choose from and loads of patterns very great find!!
I loaded up on towels, buttons, and she got materials to make her Leprechaun's. That are going to be the cutest yet I just know it! I will post him when I get mine!
It was a great day and I Love the cheesecake factory it is without a doubt going to have a run and coin toss now with my all time favorite Pf Chang's!
I can't wait for my birthday!!!

Fifteen and 16 months!

2011-01-24T20:54:00.005-07:00

So with December being crazy hectic I didn't get to blog about Ledger's fifteenth month so I decided I better soon!
***Ledger is such a busy busy little guy we don't know where he gets all the energy from! I swear we have hit the terrible two's aka already and up until this day I never would have believed that they existed! My other boys never did the things he does!
He is our wild child without a question!
He is really smart and already lets us know things he wants in his own way! His sippy cups are in the bottom cupboard which is now child locked...but he still goes to it and yanks here here when he is thirsty or wants a drink its really cute! He loves to go bye bye and when we ask him if he wants to go he runs to the door and grabs his shoes and brings them to you. Then he will go back and get yours and coats if you take longer than he likes. It is so fun to ask him to go he gets so excited I love it!!!
So here are his favorite things to do anymore!
Walk or run away fast with toothbrushes, paste, lotion whatever he knows he can't have he is all for it and runs with it when you say no and have to chase him down to get it back giggling all the way he thinks it is such a fun game! Grrr not mom!

He thinks that the mops and vacuums are the neatest things in the world! I finally got my wish a maid ha ha ha!! But even though he don't clean allot he sure is fun to watch try we get a kick out of it!

He also loves dog food yup I guess I really am the worlds worst cook if he prefers to stuff his mouth full of it every chance he gets! It is now always on top the dryer but he sneaks a few when he thinks your not watching!
YUCK! YUCK! I am sure we all tried cat food or dog aka sand in our lives!

Well your probably guessing whats next right?? Well we had to lock the garbage can up also in the laundry room. Another wonderful yummy thing he just won't stay out of!

So goes my days!

He loves to hang with the boys all of them! He sits on the couch and steals there remotes, hats, and goodies laughing all the time! He is starting to also enjoy watching TV we can get him to settle down for a good thirty minutes its a miracle!

He has also learned to say a few more words! No...Shut..UP...not to proud of that one but what can you do! He says Brendan, box and (ath) for Bath!

He loves loves bath time and lays his body out till he is just floating on his back looking at the ceiling content as can be! Its probably one of his favorite times of the day! Its really cute how much he loves the Water! Reminds me of that Brad Prasley song (Water) it is so CUTE!

We are working on teaching him his eyes, nose, etc... he knows where mine are just not his yet! He has also graduated from his baby swing to his crib for naps and bed! It is so nice to lay him down and have him take a nap for two hours in the day! He would only take about 30 in the swing so I really think he is happier and so are we!

So here we are close to starting seventeen months! I want him to stay this age forever! He is so cute learning new things and talking! He is without a doubt are cute little MoNsTeR!!!!

My hobbies!

Snow Much fun!

2011-01-13T19:41:00.006-07:00

Happy New Year!
It's been a memorable New Year with some neat dates to start the year off! (1-1-2011) officially New Years Day and it was my best friend's Cindy (Cyn) birthday I bet it was a very special day for her this year! We even had 1-11-2011, allot of people celebrating the dates and are getting married on these memorable dates in history and many are having babies on this neat really unique day's if all possible!

The boys been having so much fun in the snow this year! We got so much before Christmas that we have mountains in back to climb on. But there favorite thing to do is beg Dad for sleigh rides with the four wheeler. Even the neighbor girls join in on the fun!
My dad used to take us out and pull us with his truck on tubes he blew up! I wish I could go back for a day and be a kid sometimes we really had so many great times!

Leonard pulls them around as much as he can before he needs to rest, his back is still healing and not completely fused so he must take it pretty easy.

But when he is ready the are so excited!
Little Ledger stands by the door just a watching and waiting for dad to come give him a ride. He waves and gets his shoes for me here here begging to put on then goes for his coat he such a smart little boy!
He loves the four wheeler also and cries when it is time to stop!
Aww its just the beginning of our New Year 2011!!!

Happy Birthday Leonard!

2011-01-09T21:51:00.005-07:00

Leonard's birthday was December 27Th two days after Christmas! He had quite the end of year with back surgery due to a recurring herniated disc.
The surgery was 6 hours long and another hour in recovery before I seen him. It was a emotional day praying his back surgery would go well he decided on bolts and screws to have it fuse instead of removing herniated bulge like he had once before.
There are many complications or risks that can occur, I was terrified waiting and waiting with little Ledger in the waiting room and short drives to kill time.
Surgery was a success we are very very lucky, the doctor said surgery went very very well and he had high hopes he was going to do great and have most of the pain gone. He is doing so well and on the way to healing, no longer needs his walker and dressing himself again, things are going great it takes 4 to 12 months for the bones to fuse so he has to be good for at least a year and take things easy.

He turned 32 this year and with not being able to do much I got him a PS3 game... I'm still not sure if this was a good idea since all three of them are glued to the TV now, but I didn't have a clue what else to get!
We had a nice dinner with Chicken Parmesan and chocolate snickers cake! My parents came over and celebrated with us, due to him not feeling the best he didn't want a big party. He got tools to cut up his next elk aka deer, and clothes.
I can't believe 32 is already here. So young to have his back in so much pain. The leg pain he had is gone and things are starting to look up. He hates his picture taken so I am lucky to have gotten a few!
Happy Happy Birthday I love you!

Merry Grinch..mas

2011-01-09T15:43:00.008-07:00

The Grinch was a perfect theme this year it really fit my mood this year! One day I was happy and excited the others days just wanted to skip it all together. It was sad and I tried my best to have the kids have a fun Christmas.

They were so excited Leonard got to come from the hospital by luck the day before and they were bouncing off the walls for Santa coming and presents that night and morning. They tore into there gifts from grandma and grandpa Larsen. Treyton was so happy he got his skate park!!! Brendan got a God of War Lego and couldn't be more thrilled, also a new ca mo coat for hunting. Ledger got a walking music toy that had a phone his one true love phones!
For Christmas eve I found the cutest Grinch shirts and Jammie's for Ledger they looked so cute all matching.
We warned them to not get out of bed until at least Five ha ha I wasn't doing the 2 am Christmas again.
They woke around six thirty wow a miracle and starting screaming Santa came Santa came oh and he forgot to eat the cookies bad bad Santa!!!
Ledger got the cutest my first Harley from Santa it was so cute to see him so excited!! Brendan got Michael Meyers toy and Beetle juice, Treyton got welder toy set and Grinch dog Max.

The kids made out well and were very happy with there new things! We had survived another Christmas.

Teddy Bear Christmas

2011-01-01T20:01:00.009-07:00

Brendan decided this year he wanted to be in the school play I was completely shocked that he did but said go for it! He had a list of parts to chose from then try out for, he wanted to be Santa but they changed that part to a real Santa Claus so he settled for a toy soldier..he liked there swords. He went for four weeks every Tuesday to practice and really enjoyed it!
The play was based off a Children's book called a Teddy bear Christmas its a really cute book and Cindy Taylor did a great job making it into a play!

The play day came and he was so excited getting his costume on and having so much fun at rehearsal in the dressing room and treats with the other kids!

We almost missed the play there was a really bad Snow storm and the kids were out on a Snow Day woohooo~! We woke to no power and bad blowing cold snow~ It was kinda scary bad wind..snow and no power. It didn't come back on till around 9 that day.
The lady in charge luckily got permission and got the play back on for the evening or we would have missed it! Due to Leonard's surgery for his hurt back was in the next few days and due to the weather and dangerous roads we decided to head down a day early to Utah his surgery was scheduled at 6 am a very early start we didn't want to risk driving on bad roads at 4 am.

Our little actor did really well the play was darling it really made the holidays better for how terrible they were going for me!

He hated the red cheeks and rubbed them off before we got home. It was snowing truly looked like a winter wonderland the Christmas lights on the houses looked amazing buried in snow. Trees iced over it was really just beautiful and to me a White Christmas!

Our White Christmas even though it was two day early it was so so pretty. The boys built this Snow man with Leonard and then built a 12 ft one I didn't get a very good picture of him darn it but it was huge they used the fork lift to pick up the balls to stack! They are having snow much fun! LOL!

This is there Snow Men one was 12ft tall!

"O" Christmas Tree's

2010-12-30T21:42:00.007-07:00

This year was a bit crazy and I mean crazy! I was so excited for Christmas I didn't even want to put out my thanksgiving decorations and ended up putting away before it was even Turkey day! I just couldn't wait to get out the tree, lights, music my most favorite things about the holidays!
So I went a little over board...Yes...Just a little! I decided on my fake tree being up stairs my pretty tree that I decorate and love! Then I wanted a real tree I missed the pine scent of Christmas! As a kid we always went to the mountain and cut ares down..mom would put the lights on and after school got out we got to take over and decorate!
So this is one of my favorite childhood memories I decided to I wanted the same for my kids a real tree and one they could decorate on there own!

Well Leonard hurt his back very bad and we had to postpone are trip to the mountain and head to the doctor! He had a bunch of tests and orders done and we waited scared of the results!

We decided to hit a tree lot a pick out our tree! Loads of fustrastion worry and everything imaginable running through my mind I was a crying mess as we picked out the family Real Christmas tree for the first time! What a mess I know! My perfect Christmas wasn't going to perfect!

We got the tree home and the boys decorated it all themselves! Leonard is such a character said I had to sing a Christmas song before the tree could go up...I guess another new tradition we just started!

The tree went up it smelled wonderful loads of memories came back from my kid Christmas's I will from now on have a real tree my kids can decorate how they want it is really the best gift and memory I can give them!

My tree is beautiful all my own with Gingerbread galore! I absolutely love both the lights just bring peace to me~!

The dolls are a special gift my mom made for me! I found these cute little patterns..but with my busy schedule could not make them so she volunteered there are the cutest things ever and I will treasure always! I posted Thanksgiving ones also she did! I love these little dolls they make my holidays even better!

My Gingerbread Tree!

The boys GRINCH Tree!!

Are Christmas Card!

2010-12-28T21:12:00.003-07:00

It was the neatest day I don't know why but I just love the weather when it is cloudy and foggy! The tree's were iced over and so pretty! It was the perfect day to take boys out and get some pictures! I drove to the heritage park and had so much fun snapping pictures of my little guys! After we ran by the park and looked for pine cones. Treyton got one at the craft fair all glittery and wanted to make his own. He got around six and was ready to roll! Here is are card the boys are growing up so fast it makes me sad but they are so cute! Merry Christmas!

Santa Claus is in town!

2010-12-11T21:27:00.001-07:00

I went to the craft fair last weekend and had the best day! My aunt and mom decorated a tree at the silent auction with gingerbread's! They were all neat and there was lots of booths! I usually do this one but decided on Green rivers instead and had fun, I am working on new designs and very excited!!!

This was Ledgers second time with Santa but this year he wasn't 3 months old and I was all ready for the screaming to begin.
Brendan and Treyton were so excited we had to go there very first and see the big guy and get there wish list in!
Brendan...Jason aka Michael Meyer toy OMG right, or a Betelgeuse funny boy!
Treyton...Skateboards and ramp!
Ledger..I am sure anything with wheels!

So the boys climbed up and to my surprise and total shock Ledger just stared at him completely memorized who is this guy, didn't cry just held on too his candy cane and stared! He is such a brave little guy we are truly in for it!
Both Bren and Trey balled till about 3 at the sight of Jolly ol Santa!
I love the picture it is so perfect!

14 Months and He WALKS!!!

2010-12-06T20:51:00.010-07:00

**Its hard to believe that changes just keep happening everyday with a toddler but they do! Ledger has gone from our little baby to our wild little man!! He is such a stinker literally I baked cookies and set them out on the counter to cool down... Ledger on my leg watching the whole time saying mmmm mhhmmm I gave him some pieces and headed in to do the laundry! I came back and found him in a pile of about five cookies and happy as can be munching away, he had gotten on his tip toes and pulled as many as he could reach off and sat down for a feast! It was so funny! Just last week he did the same thing to Treytons tree in his room decided the candy canes looked good and knocked the whole tree over. I had to rebuild it before he got home from school or he would've been so mad at his little buddy!
*** He is into everything anymore! I never had a kid that doesn't play with toys much but prefers to destroy the cupboards contents, toothbrushes, boxes anything but a toy. He is so wild we are just laughing and yelling all day at the things he does. I had Leonard for the first time put child locks on all my cupboards I just couldn't take cleaning it all up anymore was driving me crazy!

***He started walking just two days before Thanksgiving! I have to say even though he is my third it is still the neatest and cutest dang thing you will ever see your baby do, besides talk! I love it...!!! He takes the little steps with his arms up and out in front him and just walks giggling as he gets close to you and the closer he gets the more excited!

***It really made a memorable holiday, I am a bit late posting this and it is now December 6Th and he is walking all over the place happy as can be crazy seems like they just learn new things over night boom and they walk...crawl...talk so crazy! We just love are little boy, I don't want him to grow up anymore I want him to stay one forever!

His shirt says it ALL....

Turkey Day!

2010-11-27T20:33:00.008-07:00

**Turkey day finally came this year I have been so anxious to get out Christmas decorations and my tree that I didn't even wait till the day of or after to do so! It took all I could to wait a week before to get it out. The kids have been so excited too they began writing there letter to Santa and had to mail it even, its sad to not get that excited about turkey day but this year I just wasn't really into the whole thing!

**I had a great day lounging around the coach watching the parade for hours, I never watch TV or rarely have time to sit and relax for that long. It was so relaxing I decided I wasn't doing anything the rest the day but eating and relaxing.

**Dinner was at my moms the boys were so excited to eat and grandmas turkey look so pretty it couldn't possibly been a real one!
We ate and ate drank wine and enjoyed sitting around just talking! Ledger loved the turkey but being the turkey he is anything he don't like he threw off his tray! He such a stinker!

**The boys played with there cousin Chesney the rest of the night talking about Santa coming and what they wanted.
The night ended great I watched Taylor Swift special on and sat by my Christmas lights!

**It was the best Thanksgiving ever and relaxing I will from now on never decorate my house for Christmas that day but relax and be thankful for my family and just enjoy being with them!

My first Pecan pie for Leonard.. and many Pumpkin with lots to follow!

I finally made my own Thanksgiving girl towel with some orders I love her!

A Keepsake my mom made me I absolutley love them!!

2010-11-15T20:58:00.004-07:00

Treyton has been the cutest little boy lately telling all of us his Xmas wishes from Santa Claus...***Mom a new red washer*** Dad a chopper***Brendan a Betelgeuse toy** and for him?? He keeps changing his mind, he is just so special and always thinks of his mom,dad, and brothers before him he is such a sweetie! They were hanging out playing PS3 and his front tooth started to wobble so Leonard said let me push it out Treyton not afraid of anything said Yes I want money from the tooth fairy. **So Leonard pushed it with his thumb and in the process it flopped out and the one next to it obviously loose too was hanging there...so he lost his two front teeth together it was pretty funny and he was very excited we kept singing all Treyton wants for Christmas is his two front teeth..two front teeth. Ha ha not literally but it was fun night. Brendan lost one the next day in back and Treyton another one on the bottom! The tooth fairy has been a very busy busy lady! We have two boys losing teeth and one little guy getting all of his! Ledger has only a few left coming in. His whole mouth is full and it has been a painful ride!
We are all very ready for Christmas and making plans for dinners, decorations, and presents! Bring on the HOLIDAYS! I been so excited that I want my tree in, the lights up and Christmas music playing, I love this time of year!

***It was a great weekend! Halloween fell on Sunday this year and made some confusion on what day to celebrate in this little town but for my kids they thought it was heaven trick or treat Saturday or Sunday ???? hmmmmm BOTH~~ and that is just what we did! I took them Saturday with there cousin Lola too all the houses in Lyman with decorations or lights on in the pouring rain! Makeup was running off, dripping wet costumes and hungry bellies we headed to grandma aka my moms~ We had Pizza hut and sat around an a hour letting the rain slow down and kids jackets dry and pants to head out again! We hit my old street and got allot more candy and the weather was perfect after the rain let up!
***So Sunday came Happy Halloween for real!~ The boys couldn't stand it wanted to go again so I said why not you don't get many chances to trick or treat two nights of the year and get a mother load of candy there young and will remember it always! So I headed back to moms where my dad said he would run them around! Hours passed no trick or treaters it was such a weird and eerie feeling no one out on Halloween! A little while passed and the kids started pouring on my moms steps awww finally it was truly Halloween!~ She handed out all her candy 8 bags and went to bed happy~! It was the best Halloween ever!!!!!!!

***A week before me and my parents went to Gardner Village~ in utah! It was so stinking fun and cute! They have a witch festival there with it all decorated with there cutest witches I took lots of pictures! Ledger got a spider and web painted on his face and was the best little guy sleeping away in his stroller as we shopped in the little houses. We ate lunch at the restraunt there all the employess were dressed up as witches, pumpkins and the boys that cleaned tables shirts said I work with a bunch of witches! I loved it and now will make it a tradition to hit there every halloweeen from now on~!

Halloween Birthday!

2010-11-07T14:22:00.005-07:00

My aunts birthday is October 17Th so this year we all decided to do a Halloween party with Halloween themed food!
It was so fun! We had deviled eye balls... cat, ghost, witch, shaped taco chips with spiderweb dips! Lasagna with bone bread! Dirt worms, finger cookies and the best part of all was the dry ice!
The kids loved it we put some in there own separate cups and it was the neatest thing ever they all had so much fun and said that it was the funnest birthday party ever!
I had a blast drank margaritas and ate yummy food!

This IS Halloween!!!

2010-10-11T12:01:00.006-06:00

This Halloween is going so great! My parents stayed down at Lagoon Campground and took the boys overnight to have a sleepover in the camper and then go to Lagoon in the morning, they were so excited bouncing off the walls all day waiting for grandpa to get home and go! The following day I headed down to go with them in to Frightmares! SO EXCITED!!!
We had so much fun! Brendan and Treyton went on all the rides even the roller coasters I was so shocked Brendan is usually to scared to ride on anything but kiddie rides. He braved up and did them all Wicked, Spider, White roller coaster they did about ten times and in the dark with grandma! It was her first year going to Frightmares and she loved it and wants to go back next year!
Brendan likes the chainsaw guys so much wants a mask to be one for Halloween now! They are really cool with the kids giving high fives and only scaring the teens and up with there chainsaws ha ha!
I love the shows watched the Wicked Witches, Chainsaw guys, and Vampire Awakening they are so so good with the best dancers! It is my favorite part besides the decorations! Pumpkins, haunted houses, mazes, hay stacks, ghosts, graves etc!
There are people walking around that scare you while your in lines too! It is really my favorite place to go for Halloween!
They have foggers going of to make it look smokey and eerie!!
Ledger loved it too and was so good with so much to see going on around him! He even went on his first two rides! The train and Carousel!~ Hard to believe next year he will be on the kiddie rides! I am enjoying fall so much its been a beautiful warm one so far!

Happy FIRST birthday!

2010-09-29T20:36:00.011-06:00

Its so sad and happy that our little baby turned one on September 24Th! I still remember the night I went into labor heading down in the dark to Ogden with the prettiest Halloween moon glowing it was so gorgeous and made me think well if he isn't staying in till October my favorite month of the year well then the drive down was so pretty that tonight would be perfect!!!! I would remember it always and even if it was still September I had made it to 37 plus weeks and it was truly a miracle I was sure he would be okay!

He is such a cute cute boy and I just can't believe he is already been with us a year! The days are short and it just flies by! It was a sad day that he was no longer my little baby and I still catch myself looking at baby jammers and then stop Oh ya Ledger is to big for these now!
I planned his birthday for a couple months finding the right invite and cakes I wanted to try and make! I love watching Cake Boss so I figured I give it a try and be my own Cake boss and go for it!
They turned out perfect and I was so so happy! I have to say the fondant is not the best tasting frosting but it really makes the cutest cakes! It was so fun to make his invites online and little cute boxes that had his picture and said Thanks for coming to my first birthday! I really wanted it to be big and memorable birthday!

We got up with Ledger and kept telling him Happy Birthday big boy and gave him his presents he was so funny like what do I do with these and why are you letting me rip open paper?? He loved the tool bench and nascar of course anything with wheels!

I invited family and few close friends! The party was so fun he got the cutest toys and a green four wheeler that was literally LOVE AT FIRST Sight he gets on and goes Vroom Vroom and smiles the biggest smile! My aunt and Uncle really made his day!
He loved his cake and kinda took small pokes and looked at us funny really for me I can eat this and make a mess?? Why you all laughing and watching me??
It really was cute and by the end he was covered from head to his waist in icing!!

I wish I could keep him little forever and ever but know he won't be for very long! We had a great day and just love our little One Year old!! Bubbie and Ledgie POOH!
Happy HaPpy Happy HaPpy Birthday to you!!!

Here Lies Beetlegeuse!

2010-09-22T21:24:00.008-06:00

So this all started with a doll! My aunt works at Little America and texts me the pictures of the the new cute Halloween decor out there she just barely got in the gift shop!! I loved loved this little skeleton/witch guy she sent and immediately named him **(Beetlejuice)** I had to have him it was love at first sight! Ha Ha ha!!! So I got him a few days later and got an amazing idea to make him into a towel for this year! Ledger was so funny ooh and awwed and was terrified of the little doll at first it was so funny, after a few days decided he wasn't going to hurt him and tried to rip to pieces! My kids loved loved him and never heard of the show beetlejuice so I found it online and ordered it! They love love it! It reminds me of being a kid watching it over and over and now they are! Treyton has decided to be him for Halloween so I had my mom sew him a striped suit since all the costumes were teen and bigger! He is going to be so stinking cute!!! Well then my mom made dolls for them and they just love to sleep with them it is really fun! I made lots of towels this year of him total of 25 all sold I kept one for me and just love how unique he is!! Halloween is coming and I just love every minute of it! The house is decorated costumes are ordered and the fall leaves are so so beautiful! Its heaven to me!!!
Crazy how one little doll could inspire so much fun for a family!

Cookie Cutters!

2010-09-10T20:56:00.009-06:00

Ledger got his first big boy hair cut! Everywhere I went people would stop and say...what a beautiful little girl what is her name?? UGH are you kidding me his has boy clothes on? But no just tell them hes a boy instead! I have walked past this kid salon called Cookie Cutters probably at least thirty times and wanted to go in there with my other ones but just never had the time!
So today was the day I wanted his first haircut memorable so this was going to be the place he got it done! It was sad to cut off his baby hair and little curls he had in back and around his ears, but the time had come!
He was so happy when they set him in the car. He instantly grabbed the steering wheel and started his voom voom noise! Then as soon as she got the hair cape around his neck that was the end of the fun. Was looking scared and very worried!
Mom what is she doing with that and them! His hair was so long he could have been a rocker and had a tall Mohawk!
He got a balloon, with a cookie cutter attached! Bubbles blown at him to make him happy and a movie!
It was great! I am going back! He looks so cute with his little spikes! Our little twin to Treyton! He looks more like he did when he was a new baby the first time they brought me him to my room he was so cute with a little mo hawk of hair! Instantly love at first sight!
Hugs! Hugs! Little Ledger your almost one now and looking like a big big boy!

Just 19 days Left..

2010-09-05T21:29:00.011-06:00

My Little Ledger is just 19 days from his birthday! I can't believe just a year ago today I was laying on bed rest! Hating every minute I just wanted to get his room all ready and house clean and so on but I was ordered to only get up to use bathroom or eat! I never had three weeks go so slow in my life! But in the end it turned out to be worth every minute! He was born happy, healthy and the first baby I got to have in my room,feed,hold right away and take home two days later! It was such a miracle!! The best feeling you could ever have in the world!

***I craved Pumpkin pie so so bad that I ate more of it last year than I think I ever have in an entire span of 10 holidays! It just tasted so so good! I even had Leonard get me it from Olive Garden and then I was addicted to the Carmel on top! It is actually called Pumpkin Pie cheesecake there and I recommend to everyone! Shoot I want some now!!! I love pumpkins and pie and for the rest of my life every time I eat it some it will remind of bed rest and my sweet baby boy being born! I just made two the other day and loved every bite!

***He is such a cutie! He has now learned that a sippy cup works and does let juice come out! He is almost completely done with his bottles sad to see them go another baby thing has almost past!

***He is also pulling himself up everywhere and I mean everywhere~! I was doing dishes and the phone rang and while I was chatting Ledger started his baby scream help help we ran into the kitchen I figured he had fallen off the edge of it and bonked his head but instead he was on top of the door! It was so funny he had a look of shock and horror how do I get down from this? It was so cute! He is getting stronger every day and adventuring from pieces of furniture to the next! It sure won't be long and he will be running through here~! He no longer army crawls to get place has got the cute four leg crawl down pack. It is so funny how one day they don't do something and the next it is mastered! He is so smart!

****I am so excited for his birthday Sept 24Th!**** I have the cutest guest boxes for the kids that come to take with! I am making a really cute tier cake with stars of all colors and Jungle! We got his toys today and I am so excited to get them out and play with him!
****Our little Baby soon will be a toddler! Time goes to fast I want to jump back and start over some days! I love babies!

***Over Labor day weekend we got to meet up with Cyn,(Cindy),Alex and there pretty little girl Mckelle! We strolled around the Rendezvous together both the babies were content to jut poke each others eyes and pull there noses! Its really cute to watch them communicate in there little way! It was great seeing them! She is just 3 months older and just so dang pretty! It was a fun I wish we lived closer so they could have play dates! I had fun going! Last year came and went in my bed and I didn't get to eat my one Navajo taco for the year! I sure did this year! Yumm!

Whenever It gets cold in the air like this I love it! Its almost (FALL) I know I'm nuts but I do!! I am ready for fall leaves! Pumpkins, apple pie, apple cider, and of course everything and anything HALLOWEEN!!
***The boys were so excited to go back to school this year it was so amazing! Brendan LOVESSSSS his teacher and I am so happy he is wanting to go! The third day in he went to bed early, shocker, wanted to read, shocker oh and spend the night at the school!! What a miracle!!! He loves it again and that is all that matters! He was so cute with his matching skull pants, belt, shirt the first day up at 7 am ready to go!!! Spiked red hair to boot!
Treyton was sad he missed Mrs. Brady and just wanted to go to her class again! I told him it would be great and he would see her here and there! He also was very excited to wear his new clothes aka mainly new shoes (lol) gets it from me!! The school theme is cowboy this year and even though (we) are not that into the whole western thing! Treyton loved it! He got a hat and handkerchief the first day and wore it around all night pretending he was a cowboy! Stinking Cute!
***I am very excited for a great year! Parent night was so fun and I loved both my kids teachers this year! I am also enjoying just me and Ledger at home during the day to do my chores and sew, play with just him!
