a poopy day

So everyone knows that we all have poopy days. Well mine was today. Woke up this morning and threw my back out. Great!!! Then i had the worst stomach ache in the entire world. So my morning was wonderful. Then we had lunch and i was going to get the pool out, but realized that I needed a couple of more ingredients for dinner. SO we go in to town and i thought, i think i could handle a jr bacon cheesburger from wendy's. So i get it and the bread was soggy. I can't eat soggy bread. (just a thing with me) So i didn't eat it. We go to walmart and get the stuff, come home and a storm is blowing in. And i mean blowing. So the wind is so strong which means no playing outside so we are inside. Does the wind ever stop. So needless to say the boys are stir crazy, i'm onery... and we are all bored. oh and i forgot to mention that my sweet bently is TRYING to not take naps anymore and still working on his molars. why today? And ps that dinner that i was going to make... doesn't sound good anymore so i am going to get a pizza. wow sorry about the overload and oneryness, but what a day. You've had one similar right?

Yesterday however was perfect. We went up to blake's aunts house to hang out. It was the perfect temperature and the fresh air can't help itself but make you feel good. Plus the best company ever.



Here is brody and Bently feeding all of the critters up there. Birds, Marments, squirrels, chipmunks, and who knows what else will come to eat.
My little bently has a great fascination of puppies. He loves them and honestly I think Sierra had a little thing for him. And brody really.
Feeding the squirrels peanuts.

Brody and Paula filling the birdfeeders.

Thank you paula for feeding us and just letting us come up. It was so relaxing. Paula's friend Kibby came over and brought her chocolate lab! Cutest dog ever, and i must mention that Paula saved his life. I never wanted to leave. I know i was so bummed earlier but tomorrow is a new day and it has to get better. Maybe i will run away to Paulas!! :)

LEFTY LEFTY

So tonight blake and i are watching our crazy boys play. Brody has this soft baseball and is throwing it against the wall after it bounces off bently will run and grab it and then throw it back to brody. So this is repeated over and over. Well when bently grabs it he will pick it up with his right hand and switch it to his left, then throw it.
After that was pointed out blake and I kept paying attention and guess what.....



We think we have a LEFTY!!!


He drinks with his left. Everything with his left.


How does that happen? I mean what makes your body know if you are a lefty?

Either way, I love it. Bently is such a different boy who has learned everything at a quick pace and has always surprised me with everything that he does and knows. I love my little lefty!!!

Father's in my life.

Well since this sunday is fathers day, I must give a shout out to the fathers in my life.

I have a wonderful dad, that has been such an example to me. He is one of my best friends, and i love him dearly.


I have a FIL who is amazing. Who has raised an amazing son who i am blessed enough to be married to. He has taught his son responsibility, honor, the gospel, good work ethic, and much more. He is such a dovoted father to his kids. He is so good with his grandkids too. My boys love him and Randy is having a constant battle of juggling all of his grandkids.


And then there is the father of my children. Where do i begin. I never new that this amazing father was in blake until he held brody. The whole night he just smiled. Blake is seriously the center of my boys life. They love and adore him. Brody tends to be more of a mommy's girl, but hates when blake is gone for a long time, and freaks out when he thinks we are leaving him. Bently is blakes little buddy.


As soon as bently was mobile he always wanted blake, even over me!!! Blake has a way of making them laugh, and they get to play rough with him.

Not only is he an amazing father, but a wonderful husband. I love him more than anything. He makes me laugh all the time and still makes me feel like i am Beautiful.
I am so glad that he is such a great example for our children. Teaching them the gospel,
how to work, and how to treat their one day wife.
I am so greatful that i have all of these amazing men in my life. I am so blessed with what i have. Thank you blake for all you do and i hope all of the fathers in my life have a great day tomorrow.

So when this came out of my garage...


I wanted to jump in front of the thing. But as i watched them ride away i saw that blake was only going 2 mph and his legs were squeezed to keep him from moving.



Look how cute his hands are on blakes legs. Totally just enjoying the ride. chillin!!

strike a pose



Check out that sweet wind hair!!

I guess that is what is to be expected with boys. I know i talk about it all the time, but boys are just so hard core, dirty, gross, stinky but oh so cute. There is just something about watching my boys with their daddy. Melts my heart. I am very thankful for my boys dirt, farts and all. :)

little randoms



I have been known to do stuff on a whim and hope they turn out, but this time it turned out ok

.You know those "do it yourself highlight kits" well i was feeling frumpy last week (due to the fact that i am growing out a HORRIBLE hair cut) So i picked one up and did it. Blake didn't even notice so i guess it wasn't that bad.

In exciting news brody has a new bed!!! minus the nautical theme of course. It is a twin but it makes brody look like an infant. He loves it though. In a couple of months i will start to work on his comforter, but i have a lot on my plate (project wise) right now. isn't it cute. The deal breaker is the drawers underneath. It will help that i can put all of the clothes in the drawers and maybe not have a dresser in his room. More room for toys most likely. but i am happy with it.

I wish i had more interesting stuff to talk about!
