Not yet.... I am not ready!!

It just happened, I am not ready for it quite yet, the plugging of all the outlets, tumbling down the stairs, cleaning the knobs on the base of the toilets every second that I get because those are the first things that go into the mouth. I am not to thrilled about how fast she is growing:(

UTE Baby

Hope the Utes have a great year! We will be cheering for them all the way! GO UTES! KIYI!!

Pretty much....

..............Sucks:(

What can you do when you are stopped on the freeway and you hear the screeching of brakes, glance in your rear view and see a giant truck heading right into the back of you??? Nothing. Just be thankful that no kids are in the car with you, you are wearing a seat belt, you have car insurance and that they weren't going faster then 30 mph when they hit you. Thankfully no one was hurt. As for the car, that is another story:)

6 months already!!

I can't believe that my baby is 6 months old! I forgot how fast that time flies when you have a young one. It seems like you blink and they are already grown up ( not that anyone ever REALLY grows up, we are all kids at heart right??)

What a little angel Piper is, it is such a blessing to have her in our lives. She is currently weighing in at 17lbs 8oz. Can I just say, her thighs are so squishy and fun to bite! Hey, don't judge:)

Anyone need a handyman???

We thought that it would be nice to make a little extra cash around here, so if anyone needs a handyman, have I got the perfect man for you!! (OK, not quite a man) He loves working with his tools, and he is so great at sticking with the task at hand.

Check out those guns!!

Safety always comes first (minus the shirt of course). If any one is interested, you know how to get a hold of me:)

BEES!!!

I love going to the Bees games. I wish that we had time to do it more often. They are just so low key and relaxing and an easy place to take the kids.

Cash! So cute! I kind of want to take him home with me:)

Pete and Jack actually look like they are enjoying the game!! When actually they are looking for the BIG yellow bee running around the field:)

Even Piper had a great time!! Thank you Ryan and Emily for the great night!! Lets do it again real soon!!

11am to 11pm!!

What a crazy 4th of July!! By far my favorite holiday of the year!! We started out the day having a huge BBQ at my aunt Vickie's. (of course I forgot my camera at that event!) Thank you Vickie! The food was great and seeing all the cousins and hanging out was a blast!! Next we headed up to Papa Bills where we hit the pool!! We had so much fun!! The weather was perfect!! even Piper got in and loved every second!! We weren't planning on her getting in, but the pool was so warm, so we stripped off the clothes and got in naked!! I love all her Rollie pollies!!

My mom took them around the pool, and a great time was had by all!! It was a blast! Thank you mom for all the help with the kids and thank you Bill for the fun times at the pool:)

Next we headed out to my dads house for the firework extravaganza!!! We hadn't stopped all day so we were all getting tired at this point, but what fun!! I love my family and I think that is why I love the 4th so much!! We spend the whole day with family!!

My dad and Pete

Me and my sis Maren

Crazy Matt and my brother Dax!

I don't even know what to say, my brothers Zach and Dax are crack ups and Matt fits right in!!

I hope that everyone had a great holiday like we did!! I love you family! I can't wait for next year!!

ThE zOo!!

We had a blast at the zoo a few weeks ago. Matt was able to take a day off work and spend it with the fam, for mine and Pete's b-days. It was such a great day!

I love that this picture turned out like this! With the sun shining in your face it was hard to tell if Pete was even looking at me, and when I got home I noticed that Pete wasn't the only one looking right at me:) I love the Zoo!:)

4 Months

I can't believe that my baby is 4 months old!! They grow so fast. I actually hate that:) She is such a happy baby. I took her to the Dr. and she weighs in at 14lbs 10oz, she is so chunky compared to what Pete was at this age. The nurse told me that she has perfect thighs for getting shots, is that a compliment?? I guess that this is the only time in her life that chubby thighs actually look cute!!

Check out that grin!!

HAPPY ANNIVERSARY

6 years ago today Matt and I were married. Of course the weather was a little better:)Matt is my knight in shining armor and I love him so very very much!!
Matt, Arien w/Pete & Cal Ripken Jr. 2/2006






Happy anniversary babe! Here is to 6 years and the best is yet to come:)

For Fun

Planting a tree. Yeah we pretty much work him to death, but what a great hole he dug!



All I can say is "THANK YOU MATT"
