Makayla read her first book

 Makayla has been struggling with reading, and this year my goal is to get her to become a better and confident reader. So she chose a chapter book to read and she chose Junie B Jones (Kenzie's favorite books). And once she reads the whole book we would go on a date. So the day came when she finished the whole book and we went on our date  she chose to go to the library to pick out some books and then to the mall to get pretzels and get a massage in a massage chair. It was so fun to have a one on one with her.  I'm so proud of her reaching her goal. 

Paetyn's first tooth

 Paetyn got her first tooth. Now we know why she has been a little grumpy and boogery. She is growing up so fast. 

Happy 1st birthday Paetyn

Look who is 1 years old today. I have no idea where this year went, but man it seemed to have flown by fast but slow at the same time. Paetyn has been such a joy to have in our family. She has helped me stay some what sane this past year.  We had a birthday party last Saturday with family and some friends. 

Paetyn is so much fun and so chill. She loves any kind of food she can eat. She doesn't have any teeth yet. She walks like a champ, and doesn't crawl anymore 😭. Her favorite thing to say is dadda. She loves to shrug her shoulders with her sweet hand out . She shakes her booty, blows kisses and loves to be held and loves to be outside. She loves her brothers and sisters and loves to play with kids. 

Happy birthday my sweet Paetyn Ellen. We love you so much

Paetyn had her 1 yr check up today. Everything looks healthy. She is a petite little peanut but is perfect. She weighs 16 lbs 15 ounces and 28.2 inches. She got 4 pokes today. But was so good.

Paetyn walking 11 months

 Paetyn started walking right before she turned the big 1. I love her waddle, I love her sweet voice. She loves to walk around and whisper dadada. She is so sweet and fun.  

This sweet girl right here is 11 months old today. She loves to snuggle, and play with her siblings. She loves food, and sweet treats. She is taking about 5-7 steps now. She shakes her head no, blows kisses, and shrugs her shoulders with her hands out (so cute). She is such a joy to have in our family and is probably helping me deal with my grief. She is so fun and such a happy girl. We love you Miss Paetyn.

Braxton is 13

 I can't believe I have another teenager . Braxton is becoming quite the athlete and good big brother to his sister. He is now playing football for west Jordan Jag's and is loving it. He is still obsessed with basketball. But know has become more obsessed with video games boo. He didn't want to do anything for his birthday, but he did want JCWs for his birthday dinner. Myleigh and Makayla got him a lot of mini sodas for his mini fridge and candy, and since he didn't give Tyler and I any ideas. I made him a candy bar sign with $100 on it. That way he can buy what ever he wants.. 

Happy birthday Braxton we love you.

Makayla's Broken Arm

Oh how my mama heart hurts for Makayla. She was riding her bike with our neighbors and went down a hill and lost control and landed wrong on her left arm and broke it.
Since I'm with Kenzie at the hospital Tyler had to take her to the insta car. Sure enough she broke it and landed in the ER to get it set. She was so brave, but so scared at the same time..I just wanted to be there and hold her. She had to get an IV and ketamine to sedate her so they could Set her arm back into place. In a week she will get a hard cast.

Paetyn 6 months old

This little peanut is 6 months old today. She weighs 13.3 lbs. She is such a fun, easy going baby. She loves to eat her toes🤣, she is not a big fan of baby food. She loves to nurse, she loves to snuggle. She can roll all around, and sit up, she still loves to be held all the time 😁.
She is growing up way to fast, but I am thankful she is such an easy going baby, I have no doubt in my mind the Lord knew our trials and sent us Paetyn who is always calm and just goes with the flow. We love her so much.
