Braxton Birthday!!

My baby turned 1 on March 24th. He is getting so big. I love him so much. I couldn't get him to sit by himelf to get a picture so I put Kaylee by him and then he wouldn't move. He is into EVERYTHING. He has got alot of energy. Boys are definantly ALOT harded then girls but we have alot of fun with him. It makes me sad to think Kaylee is 3 and Braxton is 1.

Kaylee decided that we should get him a cars cake. I thought it was way cute.

He wasn't so sure about digging into the cake at first. He ended up making a huge mess.

We tried to get him to blow out the candle but he didnt know what to do.

He didnt really care about opening the presents he just wanted to play with the toys. He got alot of summer clothes and balls.

-Alot of update-

Our 5 year anniversary was on March 4th. We didn't get to do anything cuz Brian had to work, so we decided to take the kids to stay at a hotel that had a water park inside of it. We had alot of fun. The kids loved it.

This is the slide that the kids could go down. Kaylee had tons of fun on it.

Brian with kids in the pool. I found this floater for Braxton. He could float all over and he would splash and kick.

I love this picture of my two boys.

My princess!! I just love her.

..Braxton is 11 months old..

Braxton turn 11 months old yesterday. I can't believe he is almost a year old. It makes me sad. He is alot of fun. He has been walking since he was 9 months old which mean that he is into EVERYTHING! He says mama, dada, hi, and nana (night night). I have been horrible at posting latley but I will get some pictures up soon hopefully.

Happy Birthday Kaylee!

Today my little girl is turning 3. I can't believe it has been 3 years already. It makes me sad. She is so much fun. In the last year she has been potty trained (she did that right after her 2nd birthday), she became a big sister (the best one ever), and she is no longer a baby she is a big girl she reminds me of that all the time. Tonight we are going to texas roadhouse for dinner cuz she wants to ride the saddle for her birthday. That was the only thing she asked for. After that we are coming back to our house to have Cake and Ice cream. I will post pictures later. We love you tons Kaylee!

-Sitting on Santa's Lap-

This was Tuesday December 1st at our church christmas party. Kaylee wouldn't sit on Santa's Lap. I had to sit on his lap and then Kaylee would sit on my lap. She told him that she wanted babies and toys.

This is Thursday December 3rd. We went to the Festival Of Trees in Salt Lake. I actually got her to sit on Santa's lap. They weren't to sure if they liked him. He asked Kaylee what she wanted and this time she said she wanted a pink IPOD. I have no idea where that came from. That was the first time I had heard about that one. Everything she wants is pink. She is such a girl.

We stopped at this place at Willard Bay that you could either drive through and see the lights or you could ride in a sleigh pulled by horses. We really wanted to ride in the sleigh but it was WAY to cold for the kids. Kaylee and Braxton loved it. We had to drive through it 4 times so Kaylee could see everything again. It was alot of fun.

..Family Pictures..

On sunday we went up Logan canyon to take family pictures. My brother took the pictures for us. He did a really good job. If only my two year old would have couperated they would have turned out better. I don't have any of those back yet cuz he has to fix a couple of them and burn them to a cd. These are a few pictures that I took of the kids once we got back home.

Braxton looked so cute. He looked like a little man. Kaylee looked really cute to but she just didn't want to smile when he was taking the pictures. She would smile after he took them. She thought it was funny. Kids!!

Kaylee and Braxton.

He thought it was funny to lay on her so he started hitting her cuz that is how he plays with her.

My little man is getting so big. I want him to stay a baby but it isn't working.

He is already 7 months old.

Braxton and his Daddy.

When Brian gets home from being gone for a few days he wont take his eyes off him and he gets so excited that he squeals until he holds him. It is cute.

Trick Or Treating

We went do to Salt Lake in the morning so that Brian could see the kids in their costumes. They looked so cute. After we got back we went to my moms house so that we could take the kids trick or treating around my moms neighborhood. My moms friend Sophia and her family came over so their kids could go to. Kaylee had so much fun this year. She finally got the hang of it. Braxton didn't really care he just wanted his costume off. He didn't like having it around his face.

Zyanne- Sherly Temple, Kaylee- Butterfly, Braxton- Tiger, Mckenna- Pirate, and Quayd- Some guy off of tomb radier. They all had lots of fun.

...kAyLeE aNd BrAxToNs HaLlOwEeN PiCtUrEs...

I went and had their halloween and fall pictures taken. They turned out so cute. They are really blurry on here cuz I took a picture with my camara so I could put them on. I got them taken seperate to but I haven't got them back yet. I will have them scanned onto a cd when I get those so you can see them good.

Kaylee is a butterfly and Braxton is a tiger. They are both just so cute, or at least I think so. I may be bias cuz they are mine but thats ok.

...pAiNtInG PuMpKiNs...

We all went to my moms house to paint and carve pumpkins. We had alot of fun. The girls thought it was the coolest thing that they could make such a mess and not get in trouble for it.

Kaylee ended up painting 3 pumpkins. They all turned out really cute. I took a picture at the end of the girls on the porch with all the pumpkins but it didnt turn out good.

Braxton even had fun. I gave him a cookie and he went to town eating it. He was such a mess at the end. This picture doesn't do him justice.

:-:-My Little Man is 6 Months old-:-:

Braxton is 6 months old today. The time sure has flown by. It seems like just yesturday I was sitting in the hospital waiting to see him. He is so much fun. He has just learned how to sit up by himself for a long time. If you are eating something then he will look at you until you give him some. He now weighs 15lbs and is 26 1/2 in long. He is 21% in his weight and 40% in his height. He is finally moving up. YAH!! He jabbers all the time. If he wants your attention he will yell until you look at him.

...Kaylee's 1st offical sleepover...

Brian is in Salt Lake working until Saturday. And my parents left for their anniversary getaway so I have the rest of the week off. I decided to let Kaylee have her 1st sleepover tonight. So far they have been bouncing off the walls, getting every toy out of the toy box and bringing them into my living room, and had a bath. I heard Bailey say "dont tell your mom." I was across the hall in kaylees room making Bailey a bed on the floor so I turned around and my bathroom floor was SOAKED! I guess all that matters is that they are having fun. Oh and I should say That this all happened by 8:30pm. Who knows what else could happen in the next couple of hours.

...Camping Labor Day Weekend...

We went camping up to Franklin Basin over Labor Day weekend. It was alot of fun. My whole family went except for Jeremy and Gretchen cuz they are in New York. The kids love camping. They are such troopers.

Braxton is eating his first sweetish fish...He loved every minute of it.

Bailey brought this tent for the girls to play in...It was so cute, they loved it.

We are starting Brax young on the 4 wheeler. One day he will have his own.

The girls have so much fun on the 4 wheelers... We would hit the big bumps and they would laugh so hard. It was funny!

The big boys also had to much fun on the 4 wheelers. Michael is riding on the front holding the dirt for the horse shoes and Nate decided to jump on Brians lap to ride back to camp. It was funny to see them pull into camp like that.

Me and the girls pulling funny faces. Aren't the girls so cute? I just love them so much.

Don't they look even cuter here? Haha...This is a dirty face that only a mom could love.

My little dude hanging out in the stoller while we were packing everything up. He is such a good little guy. I just love him so much!

...Nate and Mindy tied the knot...

My brother and Mindy got married on Saturday August 1st. Alot of my mom and dads family came up so it was alot of fun to see everyone. Jeremy and Gretchen flew in from New york so it has been alot of fun to have them here for a couple of weeks!

This is all of our family. It just keeps on getting bigger and bigger.

There is Jeremy, Gretchen, Brian, Kaylee, Me, Braxton, Bailey, Nate, Mindy, Mom, Michael, And dad.

I have decided that it is so hard to get kids to look at the camara at the same time.

I love this picture of Kaylee and Jeremy.

This is all of us girls trying to hold Nates big butt up. We dropped him when he wanted to get down. It was funny.


Then it was Mindy's turn. I think the girls had the hard part trying to lift Nate. The boys had it easy.

This is Maddie, Bailey, and Kaylee. Maddie and Kaylee were the flower girls and Bailey walked her mom down the isle. It was so cute cuz her dress matched mindy's.

This is all of the bridesmaids.

This is all of the Groomsmen and the dads.

This is some of Nates friends that came to the wedding.

This is my favorite part of the wedding. I love when they shove it in eachothers faces. It boring if you don't.
