Catching up

 I decided that I needed to catch up since I haven't posted all summer long. Between feeling really sick with this pregnancy and doing tons of photo sessions and doing things with my family, there has been little time for updating...SO here is our summer in a nutshell....

I just love this kid, he is so funny and makes me laugh all the time...

 Abbs had her dance recital in June and she did great as usual...

 This is our cute little neighbor aka Ry's girlfriend (they are so cute) I may be in trouble because he listens to her more than he listens to me....

 Fourth of July BBQ at grandmas house.....

 Abbs turned 8 and was baptized. She is growing up way too fast.

 This is the cute little boy that was baptized with her...he is such a cute kid

 She had a fun Luau birthday party, which ended up being inside because it rained...Really?!

 This was about the best cake I could manage this year feeling the way I felt...I thought it wasn't great but she loved it...

 I LOVE this picture...they are so much alike..

 And our annual Bear Lake trip....However you will notice there are no pictures of the Lake...That would be because I didn't take my camera the first day we went and then Jake had to have surprise surgery on his knee the next day...so I have very few pics of this year..Jake was a trooper though and let me drag him back up for the last day of the vacation...We did the go karts

 Even Jake did...he is the man :)

 Did a little fishing...saw no fish at all...oh well

 And of course, mini golf...

 She made all of these out of clay and was so excited...she is pretty creative..

 And we had a major battle wound at grandmas bday...he fell off the steps face first into the cement..He was pretty tough though...

 This is an entirely different nose...He is such a silly kid...

 And he always gets so excited when he gets to shower instead of taking a bath....

So there you have it, and now I am updated for the moment. I will try to be better but I will not promise anything since I will have 3 kiddos in just a few short weeks......I can't wait!

Exciting Announcement!!

Easter

I know that I am horrible at updating this blog. We had a fun Easter this year. Abbs and Ry were so excited about their Easter outfits for church. Ry was so excited to have a blue shirt like his dad. Me and Abbs made some Easter jewels that she was pretty happy about. We made little nests with eggs in them, and then of course she had to make the bird to go in the nest too. I love these kiddos!

Happy New Year

My baby turned 3! It is hard to believe how fast time has flown by. Ry is so fun right now. He is so funny. He loves to play with his sister. He loves cars, toy story, mickey mouse. He loves jumping off everything and running everywhere. He is such a fun little boy. We love him so much! He still loves to cuddle which I love and I hope lasts forever! He wanted a toy story cake and I attempted cake pops. Don't look to closely (ha ha) He loved them so that is all that matters.





We had a really good Christmas this year. Jake was on call but luckily he didn't get called in till that night. I love this time of the year (in spite of the craziness!)


This picture was for my parents for Christmas. All of mine and my sisters kiddos. I love it!


Happy New Year!

Happy Fall

So, I have really been horrible at the blogging update thing. I feel like it takes me way to long. It could be because I only do it every like 4 months or so. haha Anyway, having a little girl first followed by a little boy who thinks it is fun to play with her stuff is pretty funny. (These will make for really good blackmail pictures later on. hehehehe)





Yes, don't mind the hole in his sweater
Dancing is always better in pink boots

I love these kids!
Abbey the fairy

pirates aaarrrggh!
Our kiddos were sick on Halloween so we did a "drive by" trick or treat. Ry was not havin the picture thing. (he was a dinosaur)
Thanks to Jake's sister for the cool costumes for me and Jake.

Our very own Home grown pumpkins, thank you very much. (really the only thing that grew well this year.)







Abbs play doh turtle. Pretty clever



Have a great day!
