Little Man

Here is a short clip of Trayger walking.  He just decided this week that he wanted to try something new. 

Grandma and Papa

Grandma and Papa came and visited us in February. It was great to have them here. The kids love to play with them and just have someone besides Mom and Dad to talk to .



Crew kept hiding when we were trying to take the pictures but you can see his little face in the hole.


Trayger just warmed right up to them and I am sure if he could talk would have wanted to go back to Idaho with Grandma and Papa, just like the rest of the kids.


Trayger even fell asleep with Papa. He was either really tired or just likes Papa.. (or Both)



Thank you both for coming. It is always so fun when you come and we are glad you make the sacrifice to come and spend time with us all.. Even if we get you sick every time you come :) We love you guys!

Smile!

Trayger is such a good baby.. he has a smile for everyone, and everything.
He was a little sick this week and even after throwing up he is smiling and laughing.
He is 7 months old now and just a spit fire! He does not like to hold still and LOVES food.
He loves Azlyn, Crew and Creed. His face just lights up when they talk to him. He has to
be so happy because everyone is always smiling at him.

Pure joy!

When you have not had family to live by for a while the meaning
of a "Family Christmas" just makes you happy.

We are so blessed to have such a wonderful family
and it just makes me happy.


The kids had such a great time playing with each other, I
don't think we even had any squabbles at all.

It was great fun to be around Pops and Vovo.

This is Thad (helping) with the kids presents from Santa.
He was just trying to get it out to the package for them.

So many cousins and just happy faces.. Thanks Mom
and Dad we had such a great time for Christmas.

Trayger and Pops...

I am so glad that I was able to spend time with my Grandma.
She is an amazing lady and I love her example. She is soon to be 91,
she is still sharp as a tac and just a ball of energy. She tells it like it
is and you never have to wonder where you stand with her.
I just love you Grandma.

BEAUTIFUL. we really missed Lisa being there with us,
but we will all be together in JULY!!
I just love all the family time we had during the holidays.
It really makes you appreciate having family around.
I just LOVE my family.
Over all it was a fantastic Christmas. Can't wait for the next one.

What fun!

This was one of those fun time we wish we had more of. We went with Jeff and Tyla sledding on Monday after Christmas. It was warm and the kids had a blast, well I am not sure who had more fun. Thad or the kids.

Trayger was a good sport, he fell asleep on the sledding hill so I made Crew lay down and I put Tray on top of him to give my arms a rest. It just goes to show that when kids are tired they will sleep anywhere.

Thad was in HEAVEN.

Crew had a rough day with his face getting rubbed in the snow, but he was a champ and got back on the tube and went again.


Azlyn was so brave she went down the hill all by herself. She really surprised me.
We all had a great day and it was even more fun because we got to be with family. Thanks Ty and Jeff.

Sunshine and Happiness

Just learning to crawl. This was about 3 weeks ago

He was not very happy that SOMEONE didn't give it to him.

But after a unorthodox way of crawling and a little hard work


He got it. He has not slowed down ever since and I realize my house is NOT baby friendly.

First post of the New Year

Ok have so many pictures to post that I don't know where to start... So if the next 6 posts are just pictures then that is way... Just so many to share







Creed and his friends Cohen and Eric.


We were at Creeds Christmas program.


Creed was practicing his songs on the way to the program

Even Trayger got into the Christmas spirit. He just forgot to get dressed.


My four little people!! I just love them to pieces.
