This is for you Uncle Greg in UT

For some time my uncle Greg, who is a huge Red Sox fan, has been promising to send me a Boston hat. Because he has failed to do so I will forever be a Yankee fan!

Love you Greg!!

Let's play ball Dad

We have ahad a couple of warm days so we took asvantage of Matt being home while it was daytime and Matt was home! Trae had a blast playing ball with his Dad. You would think the love of ball runs in his blood! He always has to be playing ball! (No matter what kind)

Thanks DAD it was fun!!

Trae's Car 2

Trae's car

Last year I just happened upon this car at a yard sale it was like$5.00 I couldn't pass it up cause it looked brand new. So I brought it home and when the weather is warm Trae is riding along the road waving and talking to the cars as they pass. But don't forget the snacks in the car.

So many changes!!

I just loved these pictures! Update on my Kira J. She has become moible she is crawling not fast but she can get to where she wants to go. Also she has become such a good eater. She will even eat cereal. Only with juice though. But what can you do. And she has her first tooth that broke through! It was a surprise cause she never acted like it bugged her. So thank heavens!! Yes my little girl is getting big!

VEGGIES!!!!

Kira finally ate some solid food! She will not eat any cereal of any sort! Oatmeal, Rice, nothing! So I tried applesauce since she like apple juice but not so sure! But today I tried Squash and she ate it! I was shocked. I was just standing in the kitchen and thought I would try again I was just holding her and she kept eating! I start these eating habits with my kids not in their highchair and then they ever sit in one! What am I thinking! But it makes it easier to eat anywhere!

Fun in the SUN!!!!

Trae snacking in his car in the warm 65 degree weather.

Is she not the cutest thing in the world.

Loving the swing!

The park was our saving grace on Monday. Our weather has been so crazy lately that we haven't been able to play outside. But now its back to being cold a rainy and staying in the house having cabin fever.

We are back!!!

So now that my internet got fixed we are back into the blogging world. We have tried to stay busy while Matt has been in Tulsa. We almost made it to not really go anywhere but we decided to go shop at the outlets since spring is almost here annd Kira has no warm weather clothes. It was fun. Trae loves staying in hotels but he thinks you go to bball games when you stay there but shopping was still ok with him. He is my shopping buddy! Matt gets home tonight around 2am! We will be glad to have him home!

Today we were getting ready for church and Kira J didn't have a bow to match her dress. Yes I am weird like this! So my awesome friend Joyelle who makes and sells bows had a purple flower for me. Thank goodness or Joyelle!!! You are the best. Isn't she just the cutest thing ever!

Kira J loves her towels after the bath. She has figured out how to do (as Trae says) peeky boo. And she can get Trae to just laugh who in return Trae can get her going as well. So fun to see them interact with each other.

My Miss Thing thinks she needs to maybe start crawling. She is getting closer everyday. I'm not sure if I'm ready for 2 moving kids. Especially cause Kira loves to tease Trae and I think it will just get worse when she really can move!

Happy Valentines Day to all!!

I love holidays! It makes it sweeter when you have kids they just add an extra special element. My dear Trae has been looking forward to Valentines Day to go do diliveries but last night he got a fever and is now just laying on the couch and then with any burst of energy he gets up and plays but just not himself. But he still wanted to wear his Valentine shirt.

I love my kids they are so much fun and bring me so much joy! And to my husband you're awesome I love ya!!!

Here we go:
10 years ago:
I was a Seniorat Blackfoot High! Dancing for the Broncadettes and Stars and just living it up while I had it pretty easy!

5 things to do on my list today:
1. Try to wake up when my kids do!! (try key word)
2. Grocery shopping and probably some fun shopping thrown in as well!
3. Play with Trae. Normally little people stacked tall on blocks, art something and of course "SHOT" with every ball he can find
4. Shower/get ready in between Kira's naps
5. Some kind of project or something for me if I can find time!

Things I would do if I were suddenly made a billionaire:
Pay off all debt, build a house in VA and out west, lifetime of tickets to fly home whenever, a house for my mom, do something for Ali that she needs, houses for Matt's family, invest some, and I'm sure Matt would want to donate some to a school for basketball something!

3 of my bad habits
1. Procrastinate
2. Don't do my dishes everyday! I hate doing them my least favorite thing in the whole house!
3. Not a good morning mom!

5 places I've lived
1. Blackfoot ID
2. Provo UT area
3. Las Vegas NV
4. Augusta ME
5. Pocatello, ID

All jobs I have had:
Zuka Juice, Euro Comfort (shoe store), The Buckle, American Eagle, Secretary for ISU Vice President, First Line Security

Things most people don't know about me:
I am really very timid around people that I don't know or in large groups. I would love to own a photography studio. I hate veggies and force myself to cook/eat them so trae will eat them. I am determined to be able to makes quilts ect since i don't live by my mom and grandma anymore.

I am tagging
Alyssa, Ky, Mandy, Ali, & Nicky

DaD

Dad we are ready for you to come home!!! Love you!!

Playgroup!!!

Make a scrapbook - it's easy!

Kira J

Make a scrapbook - it's easy!

I had to make one for Kira J as well! Fun times with new programs on the computer! So easy to share you rpics in a fun way!!

New Program

Make a scrapbook - it's easy!

My friend Emily used this program for some photos on her blog so I was just playing around with it and thought I would post it even though I just did a post of Trae but I can't help it he puts a smile on my face everytime I look at him!

Rice Cereal!

On Sunday I decided that I would try feeding Kira rice cereal. I am wanting her to sleep longer at night and thought this might help. But she hates it! She gets it right in the front of her mouth and then spits it out! Then she pulls the cutest face and flashes the biggest smile! So we are going to try oatmeal and juice since that was the only way Trae would eat it. We will see though.
