Reese's First Day of School


The day has FINALLY come! Reese started Kindergarten today and we were so proud of him!!! My Dad brought his nice digital camera to the school and took a bunch of pictures, so when I get them from him I'll put them on here. This picture is just the one I took after school, with his little get-up! He said he had lots of fun and couldn't remember the names of all of his new friends. We're so excited for our little man!

YAY for DADO!!!



Our little girl isn't so little anymore!! She's all grown up!! Last week we "started" potty training and I bought all the necessary bribes and essential Pull-Ups! She pretty much refused to do it the way we thought would work for her Mon-Thurs. Friday I had the idea that maybe we should just let her run around naked and maybe she would figure it out, mind you with plenty of threats not to pee pee on the floor! Boy is she one smart cookie, not only did she not pee on the floor but figured out to go to the bathroom all by herself! Friday was a really good day of all day peeing, Sat was not so great! Sunday the kids and I stayed home from church cause we were sick and Lo peed all day in the toilet, oh and even pooped all by herself! She is so proud of herself and so are we!! She's such a smart girl! Too bad I just bought a small package of diapers, I'm sure we'll need them! We're not completely out in the clear, we have to get her to get through the night but we put a Pull-Up on last night and it was dry this morning, wheeeww!! Isn't it funny when one of your greatest accomplishments as a mother is all about Pee and Poop!?! Hey I'm just so proud of her!

Happy Birthday Ryan!




Happy Birthday to my handsome hubby! He turned 29 on Thursday!!! We didn't do much, just went shopping, which was more a birthday present for me than him since he can't stand shopping. But we got him a whole new wardrobe and got Goodwood, his favorite BBQ restaurant around here. Here is a picture of him digging into his birthday dinner! Happy Belated Birthday sweetie!!

Funny Pictures!


(Meditating while we waited for Ryan!)

(Angry that Ryan and Reese were singing to a song on the radio!)

(Digging for gold!)

(Snuggling with her Daddy!)

I know I'm going a little nuts with the new blogs but I'm so happy I have my camera cord for the computer!! These are some fun pictures I took a few weeks ago.

Time to Update!!



(Some of the finishing touches on the new house!)

YEAH my camera cord came in the mail today! I know I could update my blog without having pictures but what's the fun in that! We are doing okay, pretty much everyone who has read this blog we talk to on a regular basis, but those of you that don't we're surviving! The townhouse is still not sold so if anyone knows of someone looking for a townhouse in the Lehi area please send them our way! The new house is at a stand still for right now until we give them word that the townhouse is under contract, which it isn't so our builder is being extremely patient! Which we are extremely grateful for.
Reese starts school next Tuesday!!! THE ANGELS IN HEAVEN ARE SINGING!!! Well actually maybe it's just me, but as you can see I am so happy he is starting school. Don't get me wrong I love my little precious boy but he had so much fun in Preschool he has been anxious all summer long to start at his new school and make new friends! Lauren will be forced to start potty training this week no matter what she does, even though she still refuses!! I bought a lot of bribes so we'll see how that goes! Other than the obvious stress of selling our townhouse we are doing well, we're really trying to keep a good attitude about this and hope that everything works out for the best. We hope everyone is doing well! Love to all!!

Oh Where Oh Where Could My Camera Cord Be!!

Hello friends and family! I haven't done a recent blog because somewhere in all this extremeley organized townhouse I have LOST my cord for the camera!! I could rip my hair out, arrrrgggghhhh!!! I have some good pictures to use for new blogs but of course you need a cord to hook up the camera to the computer!! We're doing good though. The builder of our new house finally budged and moved the closing date back, we'll see how long they actually give us. We showed the townhouse 2 times last week and one of the couples are really interested. I'm hoping this doesn't take too much longer. Now I'm getting anxious to just be out of this townhouse and into the new house. Other than that life is going pretty good. Ryan is out of town for this entire week so life could be better but I'm not complaining!! Love to all!!
