I will make it!

I don't know why I am having a hard time keeping up with the blogging, but im getting back on it and I will be caught all up before christmas! I pinky swear!

Anyways, things have been normal nothing really new to report or anything, just that these two kids are growing up way to fast! I love and hate it all at the same time. Reece and Bryson love to play together and it is so cute to watch them run thru the house or push eachother in the doll stroller. They love to dance together, and Bryson is the best big brother in the entire world! They just love eachother and I love it!


























Here are the crazy kids dressing up one sunday afternoon. That has become a sunday tradition for the kids to dress up at grandmas house! They like to play prince and princess or get married... ya know the usual!:)

And then Halloween! yes these posts are all mixed up but whatever its here!
Bryson got to go with his class to apple annies and the pumpkin patch. It was so fun, they had a hay ride and got to pick out a pumpkin (that must be why he can't take a pic. he is to busy finding the best one)! The kids loved it.











And then, of course we were The Flinstones for halloween! Bryson-Bam Bam Reece-Pebbles
Ryan-Fred and Me-Wilma. It was fun and the kids had fun trunk-r-treating. B isn't much of a candy person so after we hit a few cars he was done! But it was cute watching him have fun!

More attempts at catching up...

So of course this was one of our last hot summer days we got to have, wind free and nice and warm! This was Reece's first time on the slip n' slide, and she loved it! Although she was completely dressed before and I really didn't think she would want in... wow was I wrong, she had a blast, and so did Bryson of course. He is such a sweet big brother, he would run and slide down it and then say go Reece its your turn. And Reece would run down it and try and slide on her belly and just laugh, it was so cute to see them play together!


















We also did swimming lessons this summer too! Im not going to lie i was totally nervous to start them because B had a fear of being near water without a life jacket (prob. my fault totally after our nephew almost drowned. I will take full credit for that one!) and I didn't think he would get off the step or ever put his face in the water! This is Mr. Brisden, and let me tell you he is amazing! I was so totally impressed with him! He seriously had B swimming within a few days and by the end he was swimming using his arms! I was so surprised with how good he was with the kids and how patient he was! He had them jumping in off the side and swimming across the pool! Anyways, totally awesom teacher and B was actually really sad when his lessons ended! It was only two weeks long...so awesome!










And last but surely not least.....my parents bought a cabin in Alpine as a rental, and it is so beautiful! I absolutely love it there and would go every week if I could and if it was a bit closer (to drive with kiddos)! And the kids love it, B asks on a weekly basis if we can go to Gma's cabin!
(see even Reece is happy about the cabin)



We went on the prettiest four wheeler ride up there and oh my gosh it is just so beautiful! But we got to go up to Sunrise (ski resort) one of the days we were there because they open it up for a weekend and if you take your kids you can get a free year pass for 12 and under going this weekend, and they let you ride the ski lift and all that it was so fun! But the ski lift was kinda so high and kind of crazy with two kids, but so fun and so pretty! Anyways, here are some pics from all that!
























My little chub! Just love her!



















from our super cool ride!








look how high we were it was crazy, at least when there is snow it might some what soften the landing if you fall! And clearly steph had to check her phone in case someone had to contact her in the 15 min ride!

I have a ton of catching up to do! Here is my attempt!

So naturally we had a crazy summer! Nothin specific that I can blame my lack of blogging on just stuff i guess!



To start (def. not in order) we had many trips to good ol' T town! Hangin out with the family is always a favorite especially for the kiddos! Bryson loved swimming and playing with his cousin! Its cute he thinks she is a little older than she is and he tries to wrestle with her!:)

And of course the battle of whos grandma she is! At this age everything is "mine"



























We also went to a super fun birthday party for our nephew! Cole is 17 days younger than Reece and i love it! THey are so cute together! Although the size different would tell you they are way more than 17 days apart:)

But we love when we get to hang out! They left us in February to move to Sahuarita! Not that far but might as well be across the country :( jk i love you Bryna!













NOW we are at the 4th of July! happy 4th everyone :) woohoo!














Im not gonna lie, the 4th wasnt the same without all the festivities and BBQing going on! This year it was on sunday so we didn't do our normal get up with swimming and all! Thats ok next year!

Oh my goodness! And then we had a fun girls day with all these lovely ladies! These are some of my most favorite people ever! I love them to death and miss the crap out of them! The four of us on the left all started kindergarden together and graduated together! And then those two on the right, jk girls, they joined us in highschool and became family! This is the only reason I still want to be in highschool (hikeschool billy)! Ha anyways, we had a fun day at lunch and just catching up with them all! Im ready for another girls day...or weekend:)














Moving right along now! ....


This was a fun birthday weekend that was actually in May but whatever! Im sick of moving pictures around!

But we got to go to the Cheesecake Factory......oh ya and the Carrie Underwood concert! jk It was so much fun even though I didn't know many songs it was still fun! Next time i will study up on my country tunes and jam out more!
















OH ya there is good ol' Carrie on top of a truck! And these crazy girls were part of our party as well!















So yes, here is part of our summer! So hopefully i will get to doing the rest of it soon!

are you kidding me!

okay so let me start by giving a little history about my sweet little Reece. She is a sweetheart and is growing into such a sweet girl, but she has his aweful stomach problem. She can't poop and doesn't without some help! I have to make her pancakes with spinach loaded in them. And some with tons of fruit in them, all are crazy high in fiber trying to help her and no it hasn't changed, i have to give her a lax in her milk evry other day. But anyways last week she hadn't pooped in six days. A very small amount on sunday and them would scream everyday trying to go! Its the most aweful thing to watch and not be able to help. so wed. i gave her two doses of her lax in one day and two baby suppositories and nothing. So thurs morning roles around and i needed to hit the grocery store for more fruit and that morning has the.fullest diaper, and then another not thirty min later! Of course im so happy for her and she is instantly so happy! So we head to the store and she starts screaming right as we get there. I figure she wass pooping so i hurry inside to try and get my stuff and go, i sit her in the cart and look down and there is poop all over my shirt and purse and oozing from the top and sides of her diaper! So we rush to the bathroom to try and clean up while Bryson is yelling " mom that's so gross im gonna puke" while covering his mouth and gaging to even be in the bathroom! well thirty min later and a naked reece we got it mostly cleaned:) jk all cleaned i had to search a grocery store for some type of shirt for a.one year old! anyways, we found a huge shirt got our junk and quickly left because i still stunk! All in all the worst grocery store trip ever!!! This is in her giant random shirt from frys and a few pounds lighter:)! my poor baby!

Playing Catch up

So we have had some fun this summer, nothing crazy big but a trip to Ryan's grandparents cabin and of course a few trips to Thatcher! It has been pretty relaxed for us with the exception of the drama filled children:) Reece has started talking AlL the time and finally started walking about a month ago and is so funny! She will do anything to make someone laugh and makes the silliest faces! I love that girl even though she already gives me a headache!

One of our many trips to T-town! So funny the two girls would fight over grandma! If one was sitting on her lap the other had to be too! cuties! And then there is Bryson and Annie on the trampoline playing.....Bryson loves playing with her, they are cute together. I think he does because she is more sturdy than Reece and can do more:) You would think they were 6 months apart but nope just under 2! ( Reece and Annie)
And then there is Grandpa who drops everything to come play with the kids! ANd they love him so much! Reece and B both will follow him around....Bryson wants to do everything he is and Reece just wants to cuddle! she is to sweet!
Oh and yes the slide that Bryson conquered! He was so proud that he finally went down the slide. It goes pretty fast but he wouldn't get off once he tried it!
And last of all the Great 24th of July parade and celebration! Bryson road in the parade with Tom and Jill and his two cousins..baby grace and annie on the tractor! He was in Heaven! If you look close he has the biggest smile on his face!
And now here are pics from our trip to the cabin a few months ago....im so behind, but it was fun!

sHooTing GuNs..... plAYinG in thE CreeK......and RidIng QUadS! Doesn't get any better than that. It was a nice relaxing weekend w. Ryans bro. and his Wif Kara, and Ryans Uncle Ron!















































And this has been many mornings for us this summer, Reece finds her way into B's room and they will play for hours its so fun to listen to them. And of course listen to Reece try and talk to B! so cute
