Blogs are a good way to journal. Mondays are crazy now. I work at State Farm on Mondays and Fridays now in Bountiful. I have been doing it since June. My friend Amy in my ward does day care so she watches the kids. She has 2 other kids she watches that are both Kaylie and Brycen's age as well as her own. Its like she has 2 sets of triplets. Girls that are 3 accept Kaylie who will be in November and baby boys that will be 1 in September and October.

I have been slacking on the F.H.E. thing with the fam, but hope to do better. For family night we ate dinner together like we usually do unless Tony works late and then he mowed the lawn and I went out with the kids and pulled weeds. Kaylie loves to push Brycen in the stroller. It freaks me out a little when she wants to run and push him. He doesn't seem to mind too much until she tips him over. The is the first time she did it. Don't worry he didn't get hurt.

I am excited to go to Lake Powell on Thursday with Tony's family. I know the kids will have fun. We didn't go last year as I was expecting Brycen and didn't want to be to far from a doctor if I delivered early.

I can't believe its August. Time flies by. This month on the 22nd is our 6th wedding annversary. Crazy.

Sundays

Sundays are so fun. Since I met Tony I have been doing the every other Sunday dinner with his family and then mine on the opposite Sunday. We get together about 5 p.m. after everyone's church and eat dinner. We all bring something to share to eat. It is good to have a set time as I know our lives get busy. I hope we would see each other at least every other week. This makes it possible.

Today we were at my parent's house. Brycen was crawling up their staircase (with me right behind him of course). It always freaks me out we my kids learn to up the stairs. I am so afraid they will fall down. He did really good going up. We have to master that first. I figure it will be good to get him learning how to do the stairs before he walks. I think it will be easier that way. He is getting his 7th tooth. I love his cute little squint smile. I will have to get it on camera. What a cutie. He is my cuddler too. I can't believe he is 10 months old!!! He is so funny eating. He eats more than Kaylie does. Is that a typical boy? I am figuring out this boy thing.

It was a good day. We played Uno and when Nate dealt out the cards to my dad Kaylie kept saying what the colors were he got as she was sitting on his lap. Too funny. Hope your Sunday was as good as mine.

Brycen is so cute. He is sitting up so well.









Okay, So I got a little absent minded when I helped Kaylie put on her pants. As you can see I put both legs in one side! Ah! Sometimes as a mom you feel like it is Groundhog Day. I had to laugh at myself and decided to take these photos of Kaylie stuck in her pants.

I can't believe it is already June. My parents had their 35th wedding anniversary yesterday and they are out of town on a cruise to Denmark. I miss them already. They are wonderful parents and a great example of a good marriage. We love you mom and dad.

HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL!

This year has started out great. On January 4th we had Brycen blessed. Then we went to Florida with Tony's family from January 7th to January 18th!!! Crazy days! It was fun but stressful with 2 kids. It was a trip not a vacation that's for sure.

Christmas Morning

13 POUNDER BOY!

Our hunky chunk had his 2 month checkup on Monday. Yeah, I was a little late in doing it. He is 2 1/2 months right now. Anyway, he weighs 13 pounds so he is in the 75th percentile for height and weight. Crazy! I think I delayed the appointment as I hate seeing the doctor give him his shots. I cry almost as much as he does.

Here we are bathing "Brycie" in the kitchen sink. He outgrew the bathroom sink for now. Boy are they slippery. So cute. I love sensored bath shots.

Farewell to "B"

So Kaylie has had a binky since she was born and now she finally got rid of it. Well, we did. She was chewing on it and it cracked so we had to throw it away. I thought it was going to be a nightmare to have it gone but she has actually done well with it the last 2 days. She asks for it once in a while and I have to say that it went bye bye and it is broken. She understands that. Yeah, I thought we were never going to get rid of it. I guess you don't see any kids with a binky in kindergarten.

WHAT A HUNKY CHUNK

I CAN'T BELIEVE HOW FAST BRYCEN HAS GROWN! He is already in 3 months clothes. He doesn't even look like the same baby. He is almost 10 weeks old. I'm sure he is close to 12 pounds! He started really smiling. He is a happy baby after he is fed. Aren't we all a happier after we have eaten? So cute. I am lucky to have a boy and a girl.

WHO KNEW SUGAR WOULD BE SO MUCH FUN?

Last Friday or Saturday Tony, Kaylie, Brycen and I were enjoying having the time together as a family. Well, I was in the front room feeding Brycen and Tony was in there with me as well. It was not too long after breakfast where we had pancakes. Tony loves plain old sugar on his pancakes. We have a cool little sugar shaker. We hadn't quite cleaned up all of breakfast when the thought came to me to have Tony check on Kaylie as she was in the kitchen a quiet. He said he would in a minute. Well, it was a minute too late when she came in the room with sugar all over her hands rubbing them together. Little did we know she had a hay day in the kitchen with the sugar shaker. Yep, you guessed it. She had sugar everywhere on the kitchen floor. Moral of the story? Make sure you follow your impressions, don't underestimate a 2 year old and never not worry when the kids are quiet. I guess that makes 3 morals of the story. We just had to laugh.
