My baby is ONE!

Karver,
Hi my sweet little boy. I cant believe you are one. This year has gone by so fast, I feel like you were a baby for only a short time. Now you are on the go 24/7, trying to keep up with your older brother whom you adore so much. You have such a sweet little personality and will give a big cheesy grin to anybody that gives you some attention:) You love to give big open mouth slobbery kisses and I cant get enough of those, and you love giving them...half the time we don't even ask and you just go in for the kill! You are such a good sleeper, you love your naps and you know the minute it's time for bed..it must have something to do with your mother being OCD about a schedule:) You're not the best eater in the world but I think I'm just use to your brother being a little piggy all the time! You're not big on cuddling which makes me soo sad, I want to rock you before bedtime and you just want your crib..maybe its my singing?? You're favorite thing in this world is your bath! I have never seen a kid splash like you do and be so proud! We have to cover ourselves from head to toe in towels otherwise we are soaked! We love you so much Karver and love the special spirit you bring into our home. Thank you for putting a smile on my face everyday! Happy Birthday little buddy!

Thankful..

I'm always so thankful for my sweet boys, but there are times when I'm just overcome with emotion because I feel like the luckiest Mom in the world to have the oppertunity to raise these two boys. I could have never imagined the joys of motherhood and the heart strings that are attached. These boys can make me smile, laugh, or cry at the drop of a hat.  So today I'm just so thankful to be a Mom and not any Mom, a Mom to two of the craziest, funniest, busiest, sweetest boys in the world!

 

Marriage...

Kooper: Daddy what if I marry Mckenna? (Mckenna is his cousin)
Daddy: You can't marry Mckenna because she is your family.
Kooper:Well should I marry Londyn?
Daddy: Sure.
Kooper: What do you do if you marry?
Daddy: You get to live with them forever.
Kooper: EEWW!! SICK, I guess I dont want to marry.

St. George & Eggs!

When we were in Utah we went to St George for a couple of days and enjoyed the sunshine. We had such a good time. Julie, Craig, & and the twins came down and I also brought all 4 of my nieces to help with the kids. My kids love all of their cousins, so they had a great time. The crew...

Karver was in HEAVEN! He loved his little floaty, and just splashing in the water.
Tayah and Kooper
Brylee and KarverAnd then of course to top the weekend off we colored eggs. Kooper was so into it, it was so cute. Don't I have such a cute hubby?!? I kinda like him;) HAPPY EASTER!

My Cute Mom...

I just love my mom, she is always doing fun things to get everybody involved and when it comes to Holidays she always goes all out! She had an Easter Egg hunt for all the grand kids and then all of the " big kids" got to do a hunt with lots of sweet prizes and of course it was a total hit! After the egg hunts we had pizza and dessert. I love being able to spend time with our families, it's so nice to be closer to home!My cute Mother in law, occupying Karver so I can take pictures! Love her!My cute prego sister (yes she is 25 weeks and sooo small), Ryan her hubby, and my cool husband getting so excited for the "adult hunt"Bad picture, but all the kids watching the adult hunt from the deck.I had to take a picture of this yummy dessert I made for the party, so easy and sooo good!

Easter Party...

We were able to go home for a little over a week during Easter, we had such a good time seeing family and friends. My friend Julie and I decided to have a little Easter Egg hunt for the kiddos, luckily the weather cooperated and the kids had a blast!Waiting patiently for the party to start.Yummy food!
Kooper and Julie's twins...impossible to get them all to look at the camera at the same time!I love Karver in the back ground, eating his carrot and loving life:)Ready...Set....GO!!!So excited, his face says it all!Checkin' out the goods, and Karver still gnawing on that carrot!

Last day of Pre School:(

I loved Kooper's preschool this year, I was so sad to move because I didn't want to take him out of his school. His class had a little party for him on his last day, he loved it! His teacher just emailed me telling me how EVERY single day at snack the kids talk about how Kooper has moved, and then 2 of the little girls always talk about how there are no mountains where Kooper lives now. SO cute, I love that they still talk about him!Kooper and his teacher Ms. Sherry. She is the nicest lady you have ever met, we miss her so much!Kooper and Ms. Ronnie. Every Wednesday was "lunch buddies" and Kooper would bring his own lunch and would get to go to Ms. Ronnie's class room for an hour. He LOVED lunch buddies and especially Ms. Ronnie!Kooper's first little girlfriend..Issie:)His buddies!

Fuzzy...

At Kooper's pre school in Colorado they have a little friend named Fuzzy and it was Kooper's turn to take Fuzzy for the weekend. We wanted to do something fun with him so we decided to take Fuzzy and the boys to Colorado Springs to this fun arcade/pizza place/rides...pretty much everything you can imagine and 10x cooler than Chuckie Cheese! We had such a good time, Kooper was so excited to go back to tell his class all about Fuzzy's weekend.Kooper and Fuzzy...They had the cutest little bowling lanes, it was perfect for Kooper!Had to watch from the sidelines...wasn't tall enough:(Even Fuzzy got to go for a ride!Every one loves some skee ball... Especailly when you go to throw it as hard as you can and you let go a few seconds too soon and that hard ball goes backwards and about hits a poor little kid in the face...notice the ball below going the wrong way. Yea, it was BAD! Loves the orange slice, best part of the whole trip!Poor little Karver is so tired....long day!
