2 Months in a Nutshell.

I took my kids to my sisters house because she has 11 baby ducks. My kids had so much fun chasing and holding them. The yellow one that Dawson is holding above was the most popular due to its hair-do!! It has the cutest fuzz ball head!

We took our little family to Disneyland in May. Not only was it their first time but mine as well. They had a lot of fun. Chandler and Dawson both got picked to go on stage and fight "The Dark Side." Dawson got too scared and ended up not fighting Darth Vader but Chandler was brave and fought him.

We celebrated Layla's first birthday in California on the beach!! Can't believe my baby is one!

Me, the birthday girl Layla and my babe!

Ryan and Layla on the beach.

The fam at Disneyland!

My boys at the beach for the first time. They LOVED it! Ry buried them in the sand. Chandler kept telling me the entire week that he wanted to move to Cali because of the beach and Disneyland. He said he was going to move there when he is 16.........funny!!

Chandler celebrated his 7th birthday at "The Little Gym." Why do they grow up so fast?? He had a lot of fun!

It's True.........

that many of you may not know but can definitely believe that Ryan and I are up and moving one last time (I hope)!! I know, I know we can not stay in one place to long it seems. So we are off to the hot, sunny, desert of Arizona. We hope to sell our home quickly and move before school starts mid August. So that is the latest and greatest at our house. Let me tell you how excited I am to pack up my house again. This will be our 5th, yes I said 5th move in nine short years of marriage!!! If I would have known that I would have left everything boxed up until now. So there you have it..........AZ here we come!!

All Smiles!!

Layla and her big brother Dawson. He never
leaves her side and always wants to be in the
picture with her. He loves her soooooo much!


Big Smiles!!

Just cheesing for the camera!

Funny Dawson.....

So the other day Dawson and I were in the car and the song by Kenny Chesney came on,"Everybody wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to go now." So of course I am singing it at the top of my lungs and Dawson joins in with me on the chorus. Well when the song was over he said, "Mom, but I don't want to go to heaven!"
I said, "Well where do you want to go then?"
He said, "Arizona!"
I said, "Well we can go to Arizona but someday we will all go to heaven."
He said, "But I will be scared, cause I don't want to go up to the clouds. It is too high and I will have to hold your hand."
I said, " I'll hold your hand but it won't be scary. Grandma, Papa and Jesus are in heaven and can't wait to see us!"
It was sooooo cute!! Kids are so innocent and honest, I love what they say!

Catching up........

Here is me and my Layla the middle of March! She is 9 and a half months old. She is learning to pull herself up to things, army crawls great, got a top tooth (the one left of her two front teeth). She loves to play with her brothers and never lacks for attention. She laughs when her brothers dance around for her. She rolls her wrists and ankles constantly when she eats and if you are talking to her. She has such a fun personality!!

Here is my sexy husband celebrating his birthday in March! He is not going to be happy with me for posting this picture.......it is like pulling teeth to get him to let me take a picture of him! Needless to say that is why there aren't a whole lot of him on my blog. I love you babe!!!

So here are my cute boys Chandler and Dawson up at Brighton having ski lessons. They took them every Saturday for 5 weeks. Chandler LOVED it and Dawson was a little tired of it after 3 lessons, but they both finished and want to go back. They keep saying, "Mom, I will teach you to ski!!" I've never been but think I will give it a try now that we can go as a family! (minus Layla)

Hair grows back right?? My wonderful husband volunteered to take the boys to get a haircut. Little did I know they were getting their heads practically shaved. All I can say is if he offers to take Layla in for a haircut I will kindly decline:) Sooooooo glad their hair grows back and quick for that matter!! Thanks babe but no thanks next time.
