My Boys

Here are some recent pics of the boys. Kyler is now 9 months and crawling everywhere. He just seems to get more fun as time goes on. He is usually such a good baby too. Bowen is a very good big brother and helps mom out a lot. Nothing too exciting has been going on lately just have been plugging along waiting for the weather too finally get nice and stop teasing us. We did get Bowen a swing set and after a very long week for Tim, got it all set up. He loves it!! Post pics later.

PLAYIN' THE BIG BROTHER ROLE

Bowen was playing with his toys downstairs like normal, when all of a sudden he brought up his Lego wagon, put a blanket in it and then asked me to put Kyler in it. At first I was a little apprehensive, but Tim said do it, it will be fun. So here is what happened...

Since the weather was a few days this week, we wasted no time in getting outside!! We planted three more trees in the backyard and got the garden ready for planting. We are really hoping things turn out better than last year and we get more than just thousands of cucumbers.

Well Kyler is now 8 months old and is starting to get a real cute personality. He loves to copy everything you do right now, especially spit. He is scooting around everywhere and occasionally will get on all fours and rock back and forth. He loves baby food which causes us to have to go to the store more often, which I love :(

Bowen's imagination is growing and getting interesting. I guess one night when Tim ran to the store for me, he took Bowen with him and as they were driving Bowen says all of a sudden... "Dad! I have an idea" he never said what his idea was, but I still thought that was cute. He is at times such a good helper to me. He is getting so big and it makes me sad.

Here are some other pics of Kyler, he is getting big too! Tim joked and said maybe it's time to try for a girl, I just asked him if he was CRAZY?!? Our little girl will have to wait, for a LONG while. :)

HAPPY 5TH ANNIVERSARY TO US!

I'm extremely late posting this but I still wanted to write a little bit about it. Last week Tim and I celebrated our 5th anniversary in Las Vegas. The actual day is March 13th. We had such a good time but were glad to get home and squeeze our boys! We left Sunday the 15th and came home on the 20th. Our flight was delayed leaving Idaho Falls, we were suppose to land in Vegas at about 7PM, and we didn't get to our room until 2 AM Monday morning! We slept in Monday until about 11 AM and just were lazy pretty much all day. Tuesday we got to visit with my cousin at dinner and meet his new baby Chloe! She sure is a cutie! Wednesday we walked the strip, did some shopping at the outlets and built a bear for Kyler. We had dinner at Cheeseburger in Paradise and went to see Terry Fator, he is the guy who is a ventriloquist and won America's Got Talent a couple of years ago. He is so talented and it was a great show!!After the show we did some more walking, and went into the Wynn, I guess an upper scale hotel, we just happened to walk into one of the shops there, I found a bra that was pretty cute, go to look at the price tag and couldn't believe it, $230!! FOR A BRA?!? Seriously, who would pay over $40 for a bra?? Just kind of surprised me.

Thursday was another fun day, we did some more walking and went to the Forum Shops at Caesars Palace and went to the Cheesecake Factory for dinner and then to Cirque du Soleil's Ka at the MGM. Another great show!!

New York New York, I made Tim ride the roller coaster with me, so fun!!

Friday came it seemed all too quickly. We had such a good time alone together, much needed! I have the best husband! He is so hardworking at everything he does, whether it is providing for our family, being a good dad, having fun, or keeping things new and interesting around here. I am very lucky! Here is to many many more years of fun and love! :)

BOB THAT HEAD TOUR 2009!! To say I LOVE Rascal Flatts would be quite an understatement! They are my absolute favorite band of all time!! :) My mom and I have been listening to 105.5 The Hawk trying to win tickets since the beginning of February, we played in all the contests like trying to figure out their songs played backwards, and I even attempted to win the ULTIMATE prize two tickets, two backstage passes and hotel stay by submitting me and Tim's love story in 105 words or less :) Just when I was about to give up, and accept that I wasn't going to be able to go... I turned on the radio Tuesday morning and turns out they had two more pair of tickets to give away... so I tried again and I can't believe it but I FINALLY won!!! I was sooooo excited, not only could we go to the concert but my sister and her husband were also going so we got to see them too!!!

Mom, Me and Shelb

We had so much fun, first we went to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory, oh my goodness, could possibly be my new favorite restaurant!!! Very YUMMY! Then we headed to the concert. Opening act was Jessica Simpson, she was soooo good! And she is not fat!!! Don't know why people are saying that?? Then Rascal Flatts came on, seemed like they played forever, it was great!

LOST ~N~ PUZZLES

Ever since the series LOST came out we have been big fans! We even used to have LOST parties with our friends Scott and Kendra when we lived in Pocatello. So you can guess when all four seasons went on sale we were VERY excited!! Well I am kind of wishing now we didn't get them...

For the past two weeks Tim and I have been staying up til the wee hours of the morning watching LOST and... putting together a puzzle. Are we dorks??? I found that I really enjoyed putting together the puzzle. Maybe because it was after the boys went to sleep and it was quiet and relaxing, and made me think. So as I was saying this took us 2 weeks, it was 750 pieces, and we even put the last piece in together! WOW, probably shouldn't have admitted to that. Oh well, this is the first post that Tim has been interested in, he said "So, you gonna take a picture of the puzzle and put in on the blog?" I just laughed. Here is the finished product.

We are going to do this one next...

Won't be buying chicken with chicken broth baby food again

Jaxon and Kyler

Today I got to watch my nephew Jaxon for a little while and it was a lot of fun! He is almost 10 months and is so much fun. He is crawling all over and even starting to pull himself up on everything. Won't be long before he is walking and really into everything. It made me think of Bowen when he was Jaxon's age, it was really my favorite stage when he was a baby. They are so smiley and they dance and are just so much fun! Makes me excited for when Kyler gets to that point. My little guy is starting to roll over and over and over... yesterday I laid him down on his blanket in the living room with some toys and I went to put dishes in the dishwasher and came back to check on him, and he was clear across the living room :) Won't be long til he is crawling everywhere :)
