Not so much...

 We headed to the zoo that is in Cache Valley and the kids were dying with excitement!!! We got there and ..... DUN DUN DUN... It was closed. So that resulted in Bently having a fun melt down. So we headed up to good ol' 1st dam. I haven't been in a LONG time and it was so nasty. 

I was freaking out with all the duck poop everywhere. It literally coated the ground.  And of course Ry falls the first step he takes right into it. Oh well if its not one its the other right.

 I must explain brody's outfit. When there is snow there is no option but to wear boots. Except for School i put the kabosh on that. And then the HAT. When blake was working in Oregon this crane company gave blake a bunch of goodies. One being the hat. Blake gave it to brody when he got home and brody got so attatched to it. He loves the dang thing. He's cute!

Everytime ry would start to go for a rock blake and i were so paranoid he was picking up poop!!



BUBBLES....

"umm mom, there are bubbles everywhere in the kitchen?" Brody

"What???" Me

ummm yes I guess i put the wrong stuff in the washer????!!!! OOPs!

Bent turns 4!!!

 The Birthday table!

 Cake

 Kryptonite Juice, and Hulk Cups

 Wolverine sugar straws, and cupcakes!

 Bently!!!! SUPERMAN!!!

 Bowling for Villians!! Preston Got the first strike!

 Look at Addy's technique. WOW

 And Bently!

 Their prizes for bowling!! Superhero coloring books!

 Next game was the Emblem chase. I had super hero emblems taped all over the walls downstairs, each in a different color and they were supposed to find as fast as they could all of their emblems!

 Ready Go!!!

 And a super hero puzzle prize for that one!!!!

 Blakes job throughout the party. Ry was being a beast!!

He was throwing tantrums and getting into everything!!!

 After bent opened presents, they all played and had a great time.

 Cake!!

 After they opened presents we found a note from THE RIDDLER. He had stolen ALL of their goody bags and left riddles in order for the kids to find them. So off we went to find the goody bags!

 Whew we found them, that tricky Riddler. Here is preston checking out his Hulk Pop Rocks!

And then cake!!!! It turned out to be such a great day and I think they all had a lot of fun!! We missed all those who couldn't be there!

My Bently from the day he was born was a little trying. He was collic and reflux, bad ears, you name it he had it. BUT along with the hard, he was so strong and independant. He crawled at 8 months and walked at 10. He has always been very determined. He has a lot of the same personality as his dad. He likes to be home. Whenever we go anywhere he always asks when we are going home. I love that he is a lefty. He is very sensitive and loves all things boy. I can't believe he is 4! Time goes by so fast! We love you bent! Happy Birthday!

RY is 2!!!

My baby turned 2 yesterday!!!

I just can't believe it!

Time has flown by so fast.

At about monday of last week ry came down with a nasty cold. Soon after that it moved into his chest and then the fevers came. We had many sleepless nights and lots of tub time during the night.

We laid low and tried to get him feeling better.

Since we have the latest church ever.... I cooked some lunch and made a cake. after lunch the boys sang to him and he opened his presents that the boys got him!!!

He was so excited and would of eaten the whole cake had we let him!!!

IT was a great day!!! Even with the post nasal drip from ry!

(I will post pictures tomorrow)

Riley is the sweetest little boy. He is the most amazing sleeper and was shortly after he was born. I was so lucky!!. He is blond and has out of control curly hair!!! He is stubborn but pretty easy going. He entertains himself well!!  The thing about having all boys is they all play well together!!! You can never have enough cars right??? He adores his older brothers!

We are so blessed to have him in our life and I can't imagine it without him!!

Happy Birthday my little Ry!!!
