Aaron's New "Toy"

Aaron got a walker a few weeks ago. I don't think he thinks it's much of a toy and he's still trying to get use to it, but he will get the hang of it and be cruising around in no time. Quite a few people helped us to get this by the end of the year. Not that all of them read our blog, but to those that do thanks SO much for all the help!
Aaron still is such a wonderful little boy. He's been trying to adjust to some new medication and has been having a hard time, but still has a big smile and squeal for you any time. We sure love this kid!

Christmas

Christmas came and went. And we had so much fun. We headed up to my parents Christmas day. Stayed for a few days and then headed to Brian's parents for the new year. It was a nice long break. Our camera's battery died and I forgot the charger so we don't have tons of pictures. But here are a few.

Cait and Quinc Christmas morning. They got just what they asked for and were so excited. I love watching them and how excited they get. So fun!

My sister from Arizona and came up for Christmas. Quincee and Brooklyn were inseparable the whole time. If they weren't holding hands they were sitting on each others laps. I think Quinc went through withdrawals after they left. This is what they were like pretty much the whole time. It was so fun to have them there!

This is probably the only time they stood still. Brian must of bribed them!

Aaron got tubes

Aaron got tubes put in his ears back in November. He is such a trooper. He was as happy as can be going in. We thought he might have a hard time coming out of it since he has in the past, but he just kind of woke up and was ready to go. He sure is one cute kid. I love that boy!

He really is happy in the picture! When he gets excited he bites on his arm! Funny kid!

Happy Birthday Caitlin

I am trying to slowly catch up on all of my blogging. I'll start with Cait's birthday. She turned 4 back in November. I can't believe she is that old. She is so fun to have around. She loves to tease and has a funny sense of humor. Her prayers melt my heart every time she says them and she loves her big sister more than anything. We call her little Quincee because she is SO much like her! She loves Aaron a little too much sometimes, but she means well. She is so excited for preschool next year, and I might be a little too!=) We sure love her!

What's on my camera...

This is what is on my camera....I'm happy to say that it is all within the month. I seem to usually wait a few months until I download pics.

October is Fire Prevention Month as I'm sure all of you know. We went down to the fire station and rode on the fire trucks. It's something my girls look forward to, who wouldn't?!

Our nephew/cousin, Graham got baptized! It was such a fun day. My sister from Arizona and her family got to come up, so it was fun being all together. We missed those that weren't there!=(

My cute little niece, Brynlie. It was so fun to have them here.

I'm sure those of you not from Delta wonder what it's like here! Well it's a 50 minute drive just to the freeway, the scenery isn't anything great and if your lucky you'll be late for an appointment in Provo (90 minutes away) and get stuck in this for a good 30 minutes. You never know it might be cows one day and sheep the next.

Yes, those are the cows going across the road. There were hundreds of them. At least this time we were far enough away they weren't trying to lick my windows. I really do love small towns, even if I have to wait for the cow to cross the road!

We took the kids up to a pumpkin patch. They had so much fun. Of course they had to pick the two biggest pumpkins. We could of got 5 at Wal-Mart for the price of these babies! But it was fun to go and do and they loved it.


Aaron got his first hair cut the other day. No I didn't take the camera and no I didn't save any of his hair. Such a good mom! He sure looks handsome though!

Happy 30th Birthday!

Brian turned 30 this past weekend. Ahhh, we are getting so old! At least I'm not 30....yet! Anyway, we went up to Tooele Friday night and had a surprise party for him. It was so fun! He was more like shocked! He couldn't believe that I could actually keep a secret from him for that long. On Saturday Bri and I went into Conference, ate lunch with my mom and dad and their friends and then went and bought some new suits for Bri. We spent the rest of the weekend just hanging out. It was so much fun. Bri is such a wonderful husband/dad. A day never goes by that he doesn't make me laugh. I wish I could really express how wonderful he is and how much he means to me. He's just absolutley the best! Happy Birthday Bri we sure love you!

So much to catch up on

This summer flew by and I have had no time to blog. So there is a lot of catching up to do.

First, I ran my first half marathon at Hobble Creek. Now that it is over it was a lot of fun. I'm not sure how fun I thought it was during, but I'm so glad I did it and it won't be my last one. I went with a bunch of friends from Delta and we made it a girls weekend.
Brian and the kids and my mom and dad were there cheering me on. Brian has been so good to help me out with all the times I go running and the early mornings it makes for both of us! I sure love him!

Darla, Cassie, Me, Shannon, Stacia, and Dani

Caitlin cheering me on. She hates being out in the heat, so this was a lot to ask of her!

And this is what Aaron thought of the whole thing. I wish I could of traded him places!

We saw our good friends Jeff and Mark. Brian got a picture with them. They were way to fast for me, so I saw them at the beginning and then at the end where they had been waiting forever I'm sure!

Later that day Britt, Josh and Jackson flew in and we got to spend the weekend with them. It was so fun to see them. Caitlin could not get enough of Jackson....or Josh! She sure loves them!

Cait and Jackson

They were able to bless Jackson since Josh's family was in Utah also. Ahh, good times! I love being with my family and with all my sisters living so far away it's always fun when they come to visit!

It was so fun to be with everyone. I wish it could happen more often! We sure love you Brit and Josh and little Jackson!
