Once In A Lifetime...

I am so glad that my dad decided to take a "boys trip" and go to the BYU game! What they were hoping for was to be able to see the new stadium, enjoy each other's company, and pray we could play well and not get killed. What they got was an incredible game with BYU playing amazing and being able to witness one of the biggest games in BYU history! Ryan says you have to see this thing to believe it...you can't even imagine how big it is! He says you could see individual freckles on Max Hall's face!I have to say I am a bit jealous I wasn't there but so glad my hubby was! He says it was the greatest sporting event he has ever witnessed! Thank you Dad! You are the best!

Go Cougars!!

We were up all night sick and have already been to the doctor this morning but you had better bet we will be watching the game tonight! Brady and Easton have been practicing saying "Go Cougars" for weeks now and the BYU shirts have been hanging in their closet ready to wear! Ryan is in Texas with my dad and brothers and we will be watching from home! Hopefully BYU can at least play well and keep it close!! GO COUGARS!

Here it is...

Everyone keeps asking me to post belly pictures. This is not really my thing but I figured what the heck. So here it is, my fully clothed belly at 32 weeks. I can't believe I still have 8 weeks to go. I delivered Brady and Easton at almost 33 weeks so I kind of feel like I should be done. It is a weird feeling but I am thrilled that everything is going so well with this pregnancy!

And just for fun...here are my cute boys! I love them to pieces!If they look abused I promise they are not. They are just 2 crazy boys who run everywhere, trip, and loose their balance :)

Crazy Days!

On Saturday Brady and Easton decided to go outside to mow the lawn with "papa". I was upstairs and all the sudden heard the boys screaming and crying. I came running downstairs to find out that they had both been stung by wasps. Oh you would have thought someone had died. It was so traumatic. We googled what to put on it to make the sting go away. Here they are laying on the couch with the paste. Did I mention they had the flu at the same time?!?Kelsey's boyfriend (who is basically a part of our family) got his mission call last week to Campinas, Brazil. We are so excited for him! He is such a great kid!Here are the boys eating pizza at the opening of the mission call! This may look like dirt to you but to us it is a big deal...this is our hole for our HOUSE! They finally dug it and we are so excited! They are telling us we will be in the middle of November and we are hoping they are right! It should be a fun few months for our family!

Friends Forever...

My good friend Heather was in town from Texas so we planned a get together with a bunch of our high school friends. Usually when we plan this there are at least a few who can't come but this time pretty much everyone made it! It was so fun to get together and hang out for a few hours. Luckily my parents house is huge and the kids played all over. There were 23 kids under the age of 6 and 3 of us are pregnant. Can you say crazy!!! I am lucky to have such great friends new and old! I love these girls to death and I am so glad we still stay in touch and see each other every once in a while.

Potty Training

This is what we have spent the last week doing. It has been kind of a headache but Brady and Easton have done better than I thought they would. I am so proud of them. We are still working on it and wearing pull-ups when we go in public but we are getting there! My goal was to do it before the baby comes and I think it is going to happen! I am just glad my parents have been out of town this week while we have been working on this and had a few "accidents" on the floor!! Let's just hope it sticks!

Summer Fun!

We have had a great summer! I signed the boys up for private swimming lessons. The first few times were horrible. They screamed and cried the whole time and it was so sad. They finally started to get the hang of it and loved it. We would have the same conversation on the way there every day and they were so excited to get their stamps at the end! I am so glad I did it and will be doing it again next year. They can't really swim but they are great at flipping from their tummy to their back and floating. It is great! They loved their stamps!Brady and Easton loved to show off their stamps when we got home so if Austin was at my mom's when we got there Renee would have to get a marker and draw a smiley face on Austin's hand so he had one too. One day all the girls were upstairs cleaning and Ryan was downstairs with the 3 boys. They got into the drawer with the markers and tried to give themselves more stamps! They colored all over themselves and got a little on their clothes. My mom was trying to get them to do "hear no evil, speak no evil, see no evil" She thought it was hilarious. Good thing she has a good sense of humor!Renee's older kids were at Grandma camp so Renee brought Austin and Summer to my mom's and stayed a few days. We decided to take the little boys bowling and they loved it! It was so fun! We even let the boys eat dinner there which they thought was pretty cool! I love these boys! They are so fun and make me laugh all the time! We have loved the summer but we are excited for fall, the cooler weather, and football season!
