31

Yet another year has gone by and I am 31. Time does fly by when you are having fun and life is crazy busy with kids but I wouldn't change it for the world. I thought turning 30 would be hard but it wasn't. I am excited to see what 31 brings me. Health, love and happiness is what I am looking forward to within my family.

Expanding our family is one thing that we are super excited about this year. Yes it is scary to think about financially and were are we going to put the baby in our apartment but. It will all work out I am those kinds of people who look at things like "things happen for a reason" and if the lord thinks we can handle another baby then it is meant to be.

31 feels old especially with my babies growing up but with family and friends to share it with hopefully it will make it even better and I hope it makes me feel younger lol.

Here is to another year of love and happiness,
Thanks for making memories with me

And so it begins

I am now 7 weeks pregnant and the last week has been nothing but nausea and vomiting I guess it has been a while and I forgot what pregnancy was like and it is kicking my butt. The last 4 days I haven't been able to keep anything down that I've tried to eat and I am hungry. My last 2 pregnancies I've had nausea with vomiting but it hasn't been as bad as this one at least I was able to eat lol.

I've tried to tell Tyler if I have to live off of crackers so does he since he did this to me lol. Yeah that didn't fly with him. But we are excited that we are having another baby, it is amazing how your body goes through so many changes and how a little tiny human being in your body can make you sick but bless your life forever.

Everyday Kenzie and Braxton want to check to see how big the baby is and what it looks like. I am happy that they are excited with us and want to have a little baby in the house it will only strengthen our family and are love will grow stronger.

2 wheeler

Today was an exciting day for Braxton he learned to ride a 2 wheeler yep a 2 wheeler. He did it before he turned 4. What a proud parent day for us to see our little boy growing up and doing amazing things. Even when he kept falling he still got back on and tried again until he got the hang of it, which is something he should be proud of, we are all proud of him even though he kept falling he kept on trying until he figured it out.


Way to go Braxton


Try, Try again




AND YOU DID IT

Surprise

The last few days I have been feeling tired so I woke up today and I felt nausea's. So i decided to take a pregnancy test thinking nothing of it, just that maybe I'm just not feeling well. I had a dollar store test which I have never used with my other 2 kids but hey why not use it.

So I took it and it had a dark line and a really faint line but I wasn't sure if it was positive because it was a dollar store test. I sent a picture to Tyler who was at work and his response was "when did you take that". Haha I asked him what he thought and he told me he wasn't sure so I said I would buy a digital one to make sure.

The longest day ever waiting till 8 for Tyler to get home but he finally got home and I took the test and it took for ever, longer than 3 minutes that it said it takes. So I figured it was a NO. finally it popped up with this.
Yep we are having another baby due in April!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We told all the kids in a fun way I recorded it but it took a little longer than I thought but it was fun telling them....

An Amazing Husband

It has been so busy this week that I am trying to catch up on my blogs.

Anyways last Saturday Tyler was asked to help a family move that was in our ward so on his day off at 8 a.m he went over helped them move for about 3 hours came home went to the store to get bacon he decided to make pancakes and bacon for his family, he also surprised me with flowers.

Then around 1 he took Ashleigh to go clean the court house (our side job) while I dropped off the kids at my mom's house and then met them over there to help out. After we got done we went over to my mom's house so Tyler could set up the swing set that my parents bought for the kids. So while he did that the girls BBQ burgers for lunch. 3 hours later he got everything done that he could (there where some screws missing to finish).

After we got home he wanted to take me out on a date so we walked to Kmart got a few things for Braxton. and picked up candy so we could take some to the movie's, we decided to see transformers.

At the end of the day I thought to myself how lucky I am to have such an amazing husband that even on his day off would work hard to help out people and his family and also have time to take his wife out on a date.

I love my life and my Husband!!!!!!

Zoorassic Park

Last Saturday Tyler decided that we should take the kids to the zoo to see the new Zoorassic themed park. Jerica, Jennifar, Brock and Karson joined us. We arrived there around 11:30 and boy was it packed we had to park far. Also If you have kids and want to go and get kids in free go to Les Schwab and they have coupons for buy an adult ticket get a child in free it saved us $21.00. We like saving money in this house so it was perfect for us.

They have so many dinosaur's around the park and some of them were life like and as big as they were back in the Jurassic time's. We were able to see all the animals, we watched a neat bird show, we brought a picnic lunch and ate there also.



The kids enjoyed it I thought for sure Kenzie would have been scared of the dinosaur's but she loved them. They really loved the one that shoots out water from its mouth and the T-Rex that one was big.

It was a fun day and we love summer here and can't wait to do more fun things with the family.

Bitter Sweet ending




I have been trying to potty train Braxton for quite some time on his own terms because it is just to frustrating if the child is not ready and finally he is in underwear he has been in under wear for a few months now I have just been to busy to catch up on my blog. He is still wearing diaper's at night because he wakes up with a full diaper every morning. I don't know how to break that but it will happen sooner or later.
Why you ask a Bitter sweet ending because my baby is growing up and wears big boy undies during the day and it just breaks my heart to no how fast they grow up, and start becoming independent, which is a good thing . It just seemed like yesterday I brought him home from the hospital and look at him now wearing big boy undies and going potty all by himself. But on the upside it will save us money from not buying diapers as often.
