Cruisin'

Our neighbor Elijah has this little Escalade he always drives Brylee and Boston around in. Logan thought he would catch a ride on the back too. It must have some power to haul all of those kids around! It's also a good thing we live on a quite road, I just love our neighborhood! It gets a little crazy at times!

But they just LOVE it!

Carter was snoozing in the swing.

They have so much fun with Elijah, and we're glad he has such fun toys!

Our first camp-out!!

Yes, you read the title right! We bought a new camping trailer on Thursday. It's older but it has more beds and a lot more room! The last one we had was just WAY to small for our growing family. And we were all REALLY excited about it......

So last night Brylee talked us into sleeping over in it last night. Of course it was just parked on our RV pad but it was still fun. The kids slept through the night, I was the only one who didn't thanks to our uncomfortable bed (Ben could sleep like a baby on rocks ) I however, cannot. So today I am going to get padding because I don't think that my back could take another night of that!

They're just a little excited!

We got up this morning and had breakfast and ventured inside to watch confrence. It was a fun family night!
The kids are SOO excited to go on our first "real" camping trip. Bry never stops talking about it. Boston and Brylee are both so excited to have her own bed! Now hopefully the sun will come out so we don't have to be cooped up inside anymore we have Spring fever really bad!!!

***Oh and if you know of any one who needs a small hunting trailer. It's a 17' 1974. We need to sell it ASAP. It's on KSL Ad #6056697 with some pictures.***

Random pictures and edible play dough

Carter and Logan just love each other. It is so cute to watch them together! Carter is so much fun. And he's turning into such a little squealer! What I love the most about babies is their innocence. Just look at that face!

Logan registered for classes for Junior High this last week. I just can't believe how fast time has flown by. It seems like just yesterday I was sending him to Preschool. I am very proud of the young man he's turning into!

Such happy boys!

I love this picture

Yesterday we made some edible play dough. The kids had a blast playing with it and thought it was delicious. If you want the recipe it's easy I got it off of John and Kate plus 8 (one of my fav's). It's just equal parts of honey, peanut butter and dry milk. I used a 1/2 cup of each.

~And if you couldn't tell they are saying "cheese"!

Picture Tag

This is Boston on Ben's B-day last year playing in a box, he had just turned one. I can't believe how fast time flies! I still just can't believe how little he was!

For the tag you will need to go into the fourth folder of pictures that you have on your computer. Then open the fourth picture in that folder. Post it in your blog and explain it. Make sure to tag four other people. I TAG .... Holly, Michelle, Angie & Lani

Carter's 4 months!

Weight: 16 lbs. ~ Centile: 70%
Height: 26 inches ~ Centile: 83%
Head: 16.8 inches ~ Centile: 61%
The doctor said he looks great! What a big boy! I can't believe how fast he's grown it makes me so sad that he's already so big. It seems like just yesterday we brought him home from the hospital. Now he is rolling front to back and back to front. Soon he'll be sitting up. I wish he'd stay little forever as he will probably be our last. It has been fun to learn his new little personality. He is such a snuggly baby, he loves me to kiss his eyelids and tickle his face. I hope I never forget how very precious he is. I love you Carter!

Our family trip to Vegas!

We went to Vegas to visit Ben's brother Chris and his wife Lani for a fun family vacation. But be for-warned this is a really long post........

So it all started out a little old fashioned at the Wild West town in Bonnie Springs. We got to see a gun fight and a hangin' Chris and Lani

Boston and Bry

Logan and Carter

Me and Ben (he was a little dirty!)

Logan, Boston and Brylee

Ben sneaking in on the kid's picture

Me and Carter ( I love that crooked smile)

They also had a cute little petting zoo

You got to feed the animals and they were very friendly

The kids had a blast!

Carter and me mostly hung out at the stroller. It was more fun too watch anyway huh Carter!

Saturday we headed over to the N. Las Vegas's Dinosaur park. They have the neatest public parks in Vegas! This park had all the toys a normal park has plus a splash park plus a huge sandbox you can search for fossil's and a duck pond with a beautiful waterfall! Common on Utah keep up would ya!




Bry in dinosaur egg

Boston's favorite thing to do was to sit and watch the ducks

I told you a long post.......

Later that day the kids decided it was SOO hot that we should go swimming. Mind you that it was 75 degrees there witch was hot to us, but Chris and Lani's pool wasn't heated, a bit nippy!

Boston and Bry wouldn't get completely in but it was still a lot of fun.

Logan and Ben froze their little tushies off! People kept driving by and looking at them like they were crazy.

At the neighborhood park they had this cute little toy were you spun around the kids played on it for hours.

And the adults liked it too ;)

A VERY special THANK YOU to Chris and Lani for letting us stay with them in their super cute house, for feeding us way yummy meals and for letting us invade their weekend! It was SOOOO much fun, it was nice to get some sun, see green grass and flowers and to see family! Now I just wish that Spring would come to Utah!

What do you think?

So when Carter was born me and Ben both agreed that he had his own look. Maybe a little similar to Brylee, and more like my baby pictures. Sunday Carter was wearing the same shirt Boston had on for his 3 mo pictures so I thought it would take a picture in the same shirt. And as I got to comparing them I thought, oh my gosh, they look SO much alike. What do you think?!

Carter

Boston

My little buckaroo

What a cute cowboy!! I just love that he is such a goofball, he makes me laugh!

These videos are pretty funny. I think Boston might think he's a real cowboy! ;)

My adorable Carter

Isn't he just SOOOO adorable!! This is his 3 1/2 mo picture. I love this age they are happy just to look at someone. He has gotten such a cute little personality. And has become such an easy- going happy baby. He brings such a special spirit into our home and so much happiness to all of us. And how could you resist smiling at this face....

Trapper Peak tubing

For a YW/YM combined activity we did baptism's for the dead and afterwards went tubing on Trapper Peak pass. Since it was on a Saturday I figured I could invite the family! It was SOOO much fun! The kids all had a great time and they didn't even whine once it was really nice. I think we needed an outing like this, for sure!

Even me and Logan went on a snugly ride together!

Okay so this video is hilarious! You have to watch it, it's of Ben and Logan and it should make you laugh. And don't worry they're not hurt. They just got the wind knocked out of them. (Ben was wondering why I was giggling before they even crashed though!)

What's wrong with this picture?

Sleeping children have taken over my bed! For the past month I have woke up, on occasion, in a kid sandwich! Not much sleep goes on after that. When Ben goes to work and sometimes before, the Brylee and Boston have started getting in bed with me. OK I will have to admit this has always been a bad habit for Brylee but, Boston has NEVER gotten into our bed! And luckily Carter has been sleeping 9 hours at night, hooray! So I don't know what is going on. But I have just come to accept the fact that I may never get a full nights sleep thanks to one or more of my crazy kiddo's!

Trisha's b-day

Happy birthday Trisha!

RaNdOm PiCtUrEs

This picture I thought was cute! They all look so stinkin' cute and Logan is such a handsome boy! Carter's first bath in the BIG boy tub!! Isn't he just adorable! (I AM prejudice though)
Boston fell asleep like this on Saturday. Me and Ben went to an afternoon movie for V-day and my Mom watched the kids so they didn't get their nap. So right before we got home he crashed on the couch and man, was he out!
