Our First Lost Tooth!

So our first born baby has offically lost his first tooth!! I was so excited for him at first..but after it was all said and done...it really actually bummed me out. Just that one little tiny baby tooth missing changed his whole look. But dang look at how stinkin cute he is. I just cant stand it. He has the most beautiful blue eyes you have ever seen!!! Its like you can see his soul in them. And those dang cute freckles on his face. How could you not just want to kiss every one of those!!!

But Chris did do really good for his (and ours) first teeth pulling experience. He was really brave at first...then got a bit scared and wasnt sure what to think about it...then Grandma Pam came to the rescue!!! She just came and talked soo sweet to him and then yanked that sucker right out!!! What would we do without her!!! He was so proud of himself. It was adorable!!!! Well now we just have to remember that the Tooth Fairy needs to come and pay Mr. Christofer a visit tonight!! LOL

Christmas 08'

So I cant believe Christmas is over and another year is only a few days away!! Is that not the craziest thing. Since last Christmas it seemed to take forever while I was in bed trying to get Kaitlynn here safe and now its just flew by. Well we had a beautiful Christmas. We couldnt have been more blessed I think. We had a beautiful white Christmas (who doesnt just love that!?), we had awesome family and friends around us to share the holidays with and this year I think we could just feel the spirit so strong. Tim and I now have all of our babies here and it just felt complete and wonderful to know we were all here safe and sound.
So here are a bunch of pictures of our holiday. It was soo fun and wonderful like I said. The kids were great and had a great time as well as did Tim and I. Hope all of you had a beautiful Christmas Season and have a great New Year.

Been awhile....sorry

So sorry I havent been on here much..its been kind of crazy around here. Like that is anything new though eh?! LOL We were doing alot of wrestling. Chris just got done with the season. He LOVED it and did awesome!!! He will be doing freestyle in Feb. when it starts up. Its so cool to see him do something that he really loves and is awesome at it!! He won a bronze metal in his weight divison at the tournament they had!! And this was his first year doing it!! I guess Tim rough housing with him since he could sit up has paid off!! LOL And he finally has a loose tooth!! So we will see how long it takes for that sucker to come out. He is that only one in his class that doesnt have a tooth gone yet. He is doing great in school. Which I love. His teacher has been awesome at helping him and making sure that he doesnt fall behind because of his hearing.

Miss Kennedy has been well, Kennedy LOL. And anyone who knows my sweet daughter, knows what I am talking about. I love her though. She has one of the strongest personalities I have ever known. But atleast she will never get walked on!! hehehe She is doing great in school..she can almost write her name. Its so cute. I love to see them learn something new. She is going to start either a dance class or gymnastics class here soon. We need to get some of that energy put into something more productive hehehe. She is a crack up though..never a dull moment with that girl.

And our sweet Kaitlynn is ohh so sweet. I could just kiss her all day. She finally decided that she could sit up and be a big girl!! She still is pretty sure that she doesnt need to crawl yet though. She does however manage to roll everywhere. And thinks that the Christmas tree is quit amusing to be under and stare at. So now we have a half naked Christmas tree from about the middle to the bottom. hehehe Right now though my sweet baby is sick. She is definalty related to her brother. Always sick. She goes in tomorrow for her 9 month check up. So we will see what is going on with her then.

Anyway I guess that is what we have been up to lately. Just busy busy. And waiting for that jolly man to come and visit our house. This year Chris said he would let Santa come in!! He hated the thought that some one came into our house while we were sleeping. Cute huh.

More Wrestling!

So I just had to add a post today about my little man!!! Chris had his second wrestling match last night! It was awesome. He just loves it!! He went up next to a kid who was alot bigger then him. So we were a bit worried. But Chris was using some brut force!!! He was taking him down and throwing him around!! Chris was winning 15 to 4 I think was the score when the other kid was pinning him. We thought the match was over, but then Chris got out from under him, rolled him over and pinned him and WON!!!!!!!!!! His Dad couldnt have been prouder!!!! Both of their faces were classic!! Grinning from ear to ear. It was awesome. Tim's sister Becky and her family came and watched him and cheered him on. Chris was so excited and proud of himself! He ran around telling every one he won! It was sooo cool!!!! Anyway...I just thought that everyone should know about my tough buff little man LOL He did sooo great!!!

Surgery, Halloween and Wrestling..

So I finally got a sec to update on here. So we have had a few really busy weeks it seems like. Kaitlynn had her ear tubing surgery last week. It went really well. Doc said her ears were totally infected, so much so he added another antibiotic to her post surgery. So now she has a killer bum rash. Poor thing. But her ears seem to finally be feeling better! So hopefully the surgery will do the trick to keeping her healthy. She is just finally decided that she just might want to sit up by herself. Not sure why she took so long to do it, but oh well. She has found out the awesomeness of suckers LOL She thinks they are the best things!! And of course she was the sweetest looking sweet pea for Halloween you have ever seen!!
Halloween was really fun. We took the kids to our wards Trunk or Treat. They had a blast!! The weather was really nice. Which was kind of weird for Halloween. But nice. Miss Kennedy was a kangaroo. My mother in law made the outfit a few years ago. Its awesome because it is one piece and it is really warm so I didnt have to worry about her getting frozen (even though I really didnt with the weather). She was too cute. We couldnt find the head part that has the ears on it, so we improvised and made her hair ears. Which I thought was really cute!! Chris was the black Spiderman..again. LOL That is what he was last year. But oh well. Didnt have to spend that money on another costume I guess. But the kids have tons of fun and got way too much candy LOL
Chris also had his first wrestling match! It was so awesome to watch! He LOVES it!! And seems to be naturally good at it. He isnt afraid to take anyone down or anything like that. Which some of the kids seem to be. I think its from all the wrestling Tim has been doing with him since Chris could walk LOL. Tim was so proud of him after the match. It was too cute to watch them together. Anyway that is about it for lately. Just busy with school, wrestling, baby, cooking and cleaning LOL. All that fun "Mommy" stuff that we all do. Hope you all had a great Halloween!!

My Little Funny Face

Ok so Kaitlynn has figured out how to get some big laughs!! Check out these faces she pulls now ALL the time!! TOO stinkin cute...even with the boogs hanging out of her nose!! LOL

Baking with a 4 year old!!!

So my sweet little Kennedy has been needing some attention these days. So I decided to bake some chocolate chip cookies with her. She is the funniest dang thing sometimes. Ok so most of the time. Not being biased or anything. I just adore her. She and I had so much fun. And she was so proud of her creations. We shared them with Grandpa and Grandma next door. We even gave them the ones that DIDNT go on the floor!!!!! Until we got to their house and that batch took a nose dive too!! But they ate them anyway. What good sports!!! But here are some pics. It was so fun. Just dont mind my messy kitchen!! :o)

Dont you just love thrush!?

I swear my sweet little Kaitlynn cant seem to get a break!! When I took her in for her 6 month check up she had her 4th ear infection (a double one at that!!). Then on Tuesday I had to take her back in to the doc cause I knew she just wasnt feeling so hot. And her ear infections hadnt cleared up yet!!! So now she is on her 5th!!! Thats 5 antibiotics already and she is only barely 6 months!!! Sweet baby. Then yesterday I noticed she had some white spots in her mouth!! Can you believe that!! So now her sweet little mouth is completely covered in white spots with thrush, her ears are both still infected and she has a bad bum rash too from the antibiotics! I feel so bad for her. But she is still such a great baby. She just goes with the flow and doesnt give me any grief. I couldnt ask for a better baby. Dont you just love the meds they give you for the thrush..I thought that with all the medical advances we have had that they could have come up with something that doesnt stain EVERYTHING purple!!! Crazy. Cute but crazy. So as you can guess my adorable little girl is getting tubes. She goes to the ENT doc on the 22nd so we can get that schedualed. So I am hoping that that helps her and she will just feel better. Isnt she just the cutest dang thing!!! Oh I just love her.

Miss Kaitlynn is 6 months

Here are just a few pictures of Kaitlynn that my and our friend Ashley H. took for me. She did a great job!! She took tons of sweetest pictures of my Kaitlynn. I love them all and totally appreciate it!!! Thanks a ton Ashley!!! See ya for some family pictures!!! LOL

Been awhile...

Well sorry its been so long since I had posted last. Not even sure who all pays attention LOL. But I needed to get back on here and post again. Sooo I am not sure where to start....and once again I had tons of pics so I just made another slide. :o) Anyway...Chris is still doing football...well his last game will be this Saturday. They have had an awesome season. They have only lost one game!! Go Broncos!! Last game Chris made a touchdown and 2 flag pulls..he was so proud. It was totally cute. Now he is just so excited for wrestling!! We have a major boy on our hands. Kaitlynn has been struggling with being healthy..go figure..one of my kids being sick..LOL. She went for her 6 month check up and ended up having a double ear infection which was her 4th one in her 6 months of life!!! And last night I took her back in to the doc cause I just knew she wasnt feeling so hot. And sure enough...10 days after the double...another one!!! So she will start her 5th antibiotic!!! Can you believe that!! So she is going to go see the ENT doc about getting tubes in her ears. Her doc said that she is way young for it but definatly needs them before she ends up with perminat damage. And I think we have our hands full with one child who is deaf!!! Man I hope that doesnt sound bad!! But you know what I mean. Soo we are waiting on that. And we tried to add to our family with a "puppy" we adopted from the pound. We saved him from certain death (he was schedualed to be put down). He is a Mastiff and only 1 year old!!! And HUGE!!! His head was about at my waist and he is taller then Tim standing on his back legs!!! But he is afraid of everything LOL. Go figure!!! We just love him...but the day after we got him...Kaity and Chris woke up covered in snot and coughing and weezing and itching!!!! Sooo as sad as we were, we had to find him a new home. The 2 I have a hard time with staying healthy are apparently allergic to him. But a friend of ours took him in and will give him a good home. He is just the sweetest thing. Sooo anyway I think that is it for now. I will try and post more often!! I promise. LOL.

Football Games

Well, once again I have taken tons of photos. So its just easier to make another slide show then to do individual pics and try to decide which ones to pick. So here are alot. The last 2 weeks were once again pretty busy. Like usual. Chris is still liking 1st grade, but hates getting up still. Who doesnt though LOL. He is so cute..starting to make new friends and getting everything figured out. Kennedy started 4 yr old preschool. She loves it. She is my social kid. Loves to be with the crowd. We are trying to help her with being major bossy...dont think we are winning that battle though LOL. Chris also had his first 2 football games. I love to watch his games. The boys are so dang cute. He just loves the sport. We took the kids to their first Bonneville High football game. It was the homecoming game. Chris LOVED it!!! He just sucked it all in. I cant wait until we are in the stands watching him play. Ok I can wait...but will love it when it happens. Kennedy did pretty well. She was more interested in the cheerleaders. She tried to copy them the whole night. I still cant figure out where she got all that girlieness from cause it wasnt from me :o) Kaity did great too. She hasnt been feeling so hot lately (teething and I think her ears), but she still never cried and slept through the end of the 3rd quarter until the end of the game. Bees won 40 to 17!!! GO BEES!!!! Anyway so that is pretty much whats been going on. Check out the pics. Sorry there is alot of them!!! I just love to take pics.

Can you believe her???

My little girlie girl Kennedy says some of the craziest things sometimes that totally catch us off guard!! Which apparently entails her to have a potty mouth too. Go figure. :o) Sooo once again this afternoon she caught me off guard. She, Kaitlynn and I were leaving Tim's new work at Diamond Line Delivery this afternoon and as she is stepping off the last step going down to go back to the car (the steps are pretty steep and the last one is a big step and quit a dozie mind you) So she gets down off the last step and kind of stumbles a little then turns around without missing a beat says "What the hell!!!??? Those steps suck!!!" Then just walks off on her merry way back to the car!! Can you believe her!!??? How funny is that!?!?! Then yet again about 30 minutes later...while we were at Walmart, we were going over to the girls to go get her some socks and we passed a display of little girls bra and panties sets. I knew she just couldnt resist...sure enough...she says (and not quietly..of course)...."Ohh mom those bras are so pretty, but I dont need one yet cause my breaths (that is how she says it) arnt as big as yours. See??" Then she proceeds to lift her shirt and show me and a few poor bystanders!!! She is a total crack up even if she is embarrasing!!!!

Sooo I didnt add any new pictures yet LOL!! I thought I would share a little thing that I thought was funny. My sweet Christofer just says the funniest things sometimes. Last week he was so excited to go to school that he was so easy to wake up...crap he woke me up on Friday at...get this...6:20am completely dressed and wanting breakfast so he wasnt "late"!! And he forgot that he doesnt go to school on Saturday and so sure enough, 6:40am he was waking me up completely dressed and wanting breakfast so he wasnt late!! That took some explaining. So needless to say he was way tired by Sunday and pretty grumpy. Which I heard is pretty normal for the first little bit of 1st grade. So then this morning I go to wake him up and he was like totally not interested!!! He told me to call his school and tell them that he was "Too tired to come and learn and play...." then he sat there for a minute and said "Tell them I will come and learn some more after I sleep in...I am growing you know and you said I need my sleep!" He is so funny. Anyway not sure how funny that sounds typed out...but I thought it was dang funny this morning.

1st Day of 1st Grade!!

I cant believe my first baby is in 1st grade and will be gone all day at school!!! Its so weird. He woke up this morning and asked me if today was "finally the day?", I told him yeah and he said "Mom I am so excited!!" It was so cute. He had a great day!! The sound field in his room wasnt working..so have to get that taken care of tomorrow, but other then that...it went pretty smoothly. Tim did drive him because we thought that 7:25 am was way too early for a 6 year old to be on the bus especially when school doesnt start until 8:20am. But he loved riding the bus home with all the kids. Apparently he was pretty impressed that at lunch he got some ranch dressing to go with his carrots!! LOL Go figure!! Anyway, just thought I would share some pics of his big day. He was so proud of himself. I was happy for him but sad for his dad and I!!! Tim said he was choking it down when he took him to his class and said goodbye. How sweet is that!!!

This past week

Hey friends...I wasnt kidding about taking lots of pictures. So it was just easier to make another slide of all of them from this week. :o) Sooo as you can see...we took the kids to the waterpark in Rexburg. My kids LOVED it!!!! It was awesome. I wish I had taken them there more throughout the summer. But we just did alot of hanging out this week. It was fun, but I am ok with school starting on Thursday LOL!!! Anyway, hope you all had a great week. Hopefully I will have something more interesting to put up next LOL!!!

So thought I would add something on our blog other then pictures. LOL. Yeah I have a thing with taking lots and lots of pictures!!! Well this last week we got Chris registered for 1st grade. Can I just say how weird that is for me!? I cant believe my sweet blue eyed baby is going to go to school all day long. I have no idea what I am going to do without him during the day. He is so excited though..he is counting the days down on our calendar. He just seems so grown up these days and I hate it. LOL. They truly grow up too fast. Chris just started his flag football season. He couldnt wait to start it. He just loves to play. Kennedy is getting so excited for 4 year old preschool..she tells ANYone who will listen. Wether she knows them or not and are wanting to know or not!!! I swear I am going to be getting notes from her teachers when she gets to kindergarten and 1st grade telling me that she is talking too much. She is such a chatter box. Kaitlynn is almost 5 months now. I cant believe that either. She is sticking her tongue out at everyone now. Too funny. She isnt feeling so hot this week. I think she might be getting another ear infection. Poor baby.
Anyway that is about the jist of it for us this week. Not a whole lot going on. Dont know if thats good or not though. :o) I might just be jinxing myself for next week. Go figure.

Our First Born

Our first sweet baby,Christofer Peyton just turned 6 year old in February. I can't believe my baby is getting ready to start 1st grade!!! He is one of the sweetest little guys I know. But a TOTAL boy!!!! You have to always keep your eyes on this dude!! The things he thinks to do and try are crazy!!! He has been quit a sick little guy...but is still so strong. Chris LOVES anything to do with superheros and sports! He loves to go to the audiologist to pick out new colors for his hearing aide!! Mommy can always count on him to do his chores and help out. He is a great big brother to his 2 little sisters. Chris just loves his Daddy and Grandpa...can always find them out playing basketball! He is a great friend and loves his family. You can just be awestruck by those blue eyes too. Chris is our sweet little guy, and couldn't bare life without him.

A few things about our Kennedy

Here are a few things about my sweet Kennedy Faith. She just turned 4 years old (March 25). Crazy how time flies!! She is the funniest dang thing you'll ever meet!! There is never a dull moment with this girl! She is a total girl. Loves everything pink, princesses, to play house with all her dolls, play with makeup and dance. She is a great big sister to her new baby sister Kaitlynn. Although too much help sometimes LOL. She is a great helper to her Mommy and Daddy...well until its time to clean her room!! But thats another story! She just adores her Grandma and Grandpa. And loves to play with her cousins!!! She is also her Daddy's little twin!! Kennedy is one of my loves in life. I just adore her!!

Well as you can see...I am still pretty new at this and havent done awhole lot with our page yet. Hard to find the time somedays. But I did add a slide show for our sweet new little Kaitlynn Hope, who is about 4 1/2 months old now. I plan on making a slide for each of the kids...I take so many pictures its hard to choose a few of each of them for one slide. So I making 3!!! hehehe So those should be up soon. Anyway...thanks for looking at our newly started Blog page.
