He is growing up so fast

Well he is already 3 1/2 months!!

Trace is just a happy little boy and smiles at everything and anything.

He loves to smile...

He is helping mommy cleaning his room.

He loves music and turns his head toward it all the time.

His Favorite commercial is the IPad one.

he gets so mad at the TV when it is over...

He likes this toy for a few seconds and then he is like zero to 60!!

This is his trying to figure it all out face!

I so love this kid....

Football anyone??

Well it is finally football season and i am STOKED!

I have to admit i am a total football nut, i love to watch it every weekend.

i have been following players and coaches this year but i will always be a BRONCOS fan.

and even though his daddy is not too happy about it i have started my littlest one off early and he is pulling for them too.

He looks so CUTE... i know its cheating but this is what he will be for Halloween.

oh i love having boys! can't wait to be the mom that is yelling on the sidelines while they are running with the football down the field!

Kemmer is following the temptation of his dad. he is cheering for the cowboys. oh well at least he likes football right!

Lets hope the season is a good one!!!

Just waiting!!

Well this will be a picture less post but oh well. I am just so excited and sad. My little Man KEMMER is a big boy now, he is officially in preschool. I never thought that this day would be here already. He is so tall and Skinny. He is not the same little chunky baby boy that I remember. but he is dong great. he also had to get some glasses (pictures coming soon) he looks like a little smart boy. SO CUTE!!! I love him. Trace is getting big but he is still my little tiny boy. He is getting more and more active. He is smiling all the time, and just is my sweet heart both my boys are my best buddies....

Trace has become the last piece to finish off our cute little family. He is a Mama's boy and even a Grandma's boy. He loves his big brother and sisters. Kemmer and him are snuggle buddies in the mornings while we watch cartoons. Hailey takes great Care of him and is a huge help when i need things. Hanna Sings to him and tells him stories. He is one lucky little Boy.

Kemmer just loves being right next to his little brother.

Trace knows his voice and always coos when he hears him.

Hailey is so proud to show him off and talk about him.

Her famous words "He's cute!"

she is the sweetest thing and she will always be the best biggest sister.

  

Oh Hanna, now she is the singer, she is always singing him a little song and making sure that Trace is not crying. Every time she holds him she is giggling and kicking her feet. So one of my favorite moments.

Now for the saddest part of this blog, My little sweethearts hit the road tomorrow for Nebraska. its been hard thinking that they will not be at our house every other weekend. Tearing it apart and driving me CRAZY. Hopefully the next 3 years will go by so super fast!

My best last moment with these two was today on the way to take them home Kemmer and Hailey were in the back seat talking about their random things that they do. And then all the sudden the laugh attacks broke out! they were laughing so hard and of course made me cry even harder. I am worried about my 3 boys. i hope that they will make it through the years with out the girls just 20 minutes away.

WE LOVE YOU GIRLS!!!

they will hopefully have some great adventures while in Nebraska. I wish Mike and Whitney all the luck in the world. They too are facing a rough 3 years, they are leaving their family as well back here in Utah.

We will still be here and will not be going anywhere!!

Easter weekend!!!

A weekend of Crazy Eggs and happy smiles from ear to ear,

Wal-mart trips and chipmunks.

Baseball and volley ball skip-bo and soccer. 

Well lets start the weekend of with Friday night...

We watched the Chipmunk movie, all 3 kids were dancing around singing and laughing.

Then at some parts they were so interested that they didn't even BLINK.

James sat and watched the movie with the kids and enjoyed himself as well.

It was definitely one of those hard nights to get them all to sleep.

Saturday oh Saturday! 

We started out with breakfast and then just being lazy, i n our jammies 

( i know we are always in our jammies)

Then James and i realized we didn't have baskets for the kids to get eggs at G-ma Jill's

so i was getting ready and told James okay i will be right back. And then all the sudden I was told to wait will Hanna Said " let me get my sandles and my jacket and i will go with you". so i waited for her to find her things and we were off to WAL-MART

The orginial shopping list:

Olives (for Hanna she ate a whole can to herself)

Easter baskets

Eggs

Candy 

Paper towels (napkins for Hanna)

now this is the list of the extras we left with

twinkies

oreos

extra candy (ring pops)

a toy for  Baby Maddie

She was the best shopping partner! We definitely came out with more then intended to bring home.

She is a talker, we talked about clothes and how cute the dresses were. She would tell me how silly some people were. talked about flip flops, baby maddie, the big easter egg hunt of the day.

(Hanna did most the talking!!)

it was a great Wal mart trip!
Then we were off to Grandma Jills

where we ate yummy food!

(Hanna Hunting for eggs)

(Kemmer hunting eggs with Grandma Jill's help)

(Hailey found an egg someone missed)

Played with the family,

everyone was there, we played baseball, volleyball, ran in circles.

We noticed that Hailey and Kemmer liked the sport circles and Hanna just ran around doing her silly own thing.

Easter was off to a GREAT start.

Sadly  the girls had to go home to spend time with the rest of their family!


Sunday (Easter)
Well Kemmer is still learning about the different holidays,
he was so excited to see his basket. But he thought that Santa brought it to him.
Ha Ha that was to much for us that early in the morning.
It was time for the hunt out side,
he grabbed his basket and was ready and waiting.
when we made it up the stairs he seen the extra candy that the "Easter Bunny" had all over the ground
Laughed and said " Dad the silly rabbit ran out of eggs. LOOK!!"
These are the simple moments of the wonderful life of being a mother.

(once again in jammies ha ha ha )

Part two coming soon! So much more Easter!

Thursday nights

Well sometimes you have a day of the week that stand out the most. Ours was tonight, James pretending to be and elevator and Kemmer laughing so hard. James baking a cake with out any frosting! and then me just eating all the junk food my prego self can find!! what a wonderful way to end our long day. TOGETHER! love my boys. now i am just getting ready for our two princesses to join the wonderful days of junk food, daddy being silly and just enjoying each other!! I love my little family that is only going to grow when our little dude joins us.

Kemmer when he passes out after a long day with Grandma Jill and playing with cousins.

So every other Sunday, Kemmer goes to church with Grandma Jill. Well this week he also got to go play with his cousin Beckam! Which I think wore him out. He came home around 7:30 pm and went in his room to play. It was all the sudden so quiet I had to go check on him, this is what I found. KEMMER WAS PASSED OUT!! He didn't move all night! that doesn't happen very often in this house!! Poor kid slept in his church clothes. These are the things that I love to witness while being a mother to sweet and innocent moments that kids give us in the world. I thank all my kids for those moments.

He sure does sleep funny sometimes.

We took Kemmer bowling for his birthday, that was all he wanted to do. This is him so excited that he just knocked some of the pins down! The kid was able to get 3 SPARES! He just had a blast. We enjoyed seeing his face and all his excitement that he had on his little chubby face. The only bad thing was after that day all he wanted to do was GO BOWLING and have fun. He is a sweet boy and i hope that he knows that he is loved.

Happy Birthday Kemmer!

Jammies only weekend!!

These are my three crazy bundles of joy!! This is from our jammies only weekend. It was not a very productive weekend, but hey we had fun just being lazy and eating all the junk food we could find in the house. We made Kemmer a birthday cake, wore party hats,and sang "happy birthday" like 12 times. (Hanna helped a lot with that part) When i asked if we want to get dressed they all said no! Gotta love the one less load of laundry!!
