Everyday Life

I really need to keep more updated on my blog. Carson is growing and changing so fast that some of my pictures seem outdated after only a few weeks. We really haven't been up to too much. Just everyday life.

Here he is at two months. Just starting to smile a lot.

So sleepy!


Daddy and Carson


Carson loves the bath!


All you have to do is smile at him and he will almost always give you a smile in return.


Look at that smile! That makes all the hard work worth it!


The kid LOVES his Bumbo. And I LOVE that he LOVES his bumbo. It is the only way that I am ever able to get ready in the morning or make dinner at night.




We also had a birthday a few weeks ago. Rick celebrated his last birthday in his twenty's. We splurged and I took him to Ruth's Chris. We had heard a lot about it and Rick had always wanted to eat there.


The food was seriously sooooo good. The steak was seasoned just right and literally melted in your mouth. Delicious! (the sign to the restaurant was bright and didn't make for a very good pic)

And then of course Tyler and Logan are just as crazy as ever.

These two turkeys thought it was absolutely hilarious when I closed the shower curtain on them while they were in the bathtub. They laughed forever!

The boys have these little lacrosse sticks. They like to lean over the couch and pretend that they are fishing with fishing nets. Pretty clever.

Tyler and Logan behind bars. It's cute when they are little. It won't be so cute if it happens when they are older. :)

Tyler and Logan wanted to have a sleep over on the floor in their room one night. I checked on them before I went to bed and found them like this. Sleeping peacefully surrounded by a mess of toys.

This was them first thing in the morning. It cracks me up how Logan always sits right next to Tyler even though there is a lot of other couch he could sit on. He is Tylers little shadow.

Our TLC. It wasn't planned that our kids initials would spell TLC, but it is kinda fun that it worked out that way. And it is definetly true that they do all require A LOT of tender love and care.

Ricks dad came out for another visit. The boys love having visitors come stay with us. We spent one of the days at the train park. The boys love to ride the train! We are looking forward to many more trips to the park now that the weather is cooling down and we are FINALLY getting into our nice seasons!

Carsons Blessing

Today at church we blessed Carson. He looked so cute in his little white suit. Rick did a really nice job with the blessing and Carson was wide awake but quiet through the whole thing. This was the first kid we didn't have any family here to stand in the circle. We just kept it small and simple. It was a good day.

Carson all ready for his big day

Our attempt at a family picture. Easier said then done. This isn't a very good picture but it was after a long, hot day and no naps!

One Long Month

Well, it has been so long since I have blogged I don't even know where to start. The past month has been a bit overwhelming with a lot going on. Obviously the first thing to happen was Carson being born. Adjusting to a new baby is definetly overwhelming in and of itself. A week after he was born, my mom passed away after a long hard battle with cancer. We went up to Idaho to be with family and for the funeral. It was like being with two extremes. Being with my baby who was just starting his life and then being with my mom who had just ended hers.

Here is a picture of my amazing mother. I always thought she was very pretty. She was a great example to me of strength and courage and patience. She never complained and I never saw her get angry. I honestly could not have asked for a better mom and I was always so proud that she was my mom. She is very loved and I miss her everyday. I find comfort in the fact that I know that she is in a happier place now and that I will see her again someday.

One thing about a funeral is that you get to see a lot of family and friends that you haven't seen for a while. Here we are with a lot of the cousins from my moms side of the family.


Below are just some random pics from our house from the past month that I am finally getting around to posting.

This pic is a little blurry but this is how the boys looked when they came to visit me in the hospital. All the nurses and doctors smiled when they saw these two walking through the hospital. They kept looking at Logan and saying that he was too little to be a big brother.

Here is a pic of Carson working on his tan. :) He had jaundice so he had to go under the bili blanket for a couple of days.

Here is Carson at one week. His binki covers half of his face. We are just thrilled that he takes a binki since our other two never did.

Daddy and Carson. I thought that was so funny how Carson fell asleep all sprauled out on his daddys tummy.

Our TLC. (Tyler, Logan, and Carson). I am really starting to feel out numbered by all these boys around here. I still can't believe that they are all mine. I don't feel old enough to have three kids and a mini van.

I can't hardly put Carson down because every time I do the other two boys are all over him. They are always wanting to hold him and give him kisses. Carson is still warming up to his loud, crazy brothers.


We also had some visitors come down to Phoenix

Rick got a new calling at church and had to be ordained to a high priest. His dad and brother Rob came out from back East to do the ordination. It was a quick trip, they were only here for the weekend but we were glad they could come. This is a pic of Rick with his dad.

So because we have had a new baby, a death in the family, and visitors come to our house, our lives have been pretty busy. Hopefully things will calm down a little bit now and we can try and get back to normal, whatever that is.

Keep scrolling down to see an update about Logan's 2nd Birthday!

Logi turns two!!

Logan turned the big 2 years old on the 25th of August. He is so cute and is starting to talk a lot. He is so much fun to have in our family. Below are some pics of his big day!

The boys running through the car wash first thing in the morning.


Eating their birthday breakfast. Doughnuts and chocolate milk.



Logi opening his presents.



Logan playing with his new train set. This train has had a permanent place in our living room for the past week.

Logan finally got his beloved Buzz. He was so excited and has taken it everywhere with him, including the dinner table, the car, and to bed every night. (He tried to take him in the bath tub but I wouldn't let him)

Blowing out the candles

Logan diving into his cake.

Logi and his Daddy getting in the party spirit!

Happy Birthday Logi! We love You!

Random Happenings

I've really been slacking lately in the blogging department. June came and went pretty fast. We spent our time trying to survive the heat. Some highlights of our month were another trip to Idaho and going to the Yankee/ Diamondback game. We had a great time doing both of these but unfortunately we did not get pictures of either of these things.:( Other than that we have just been swimming almost everyday, going to movies, museums, the zoo, and just hanging out. Here are a few pictures that I did happen to take.

I love this picture of the boys at the pool

Logan loves to swim but he doesn't like us to hold him. So we got him some floaties so he could learn to do it on his own.

My boys LOVE Toy Story so we were so excited when Toy Story 3 came out. We took a little family trip to the movie theatre. Here is a picture of my boys, Rick, and our friend Melissa waiting for the show to start. And just in case you were wondering, Rick balled through the whole ending of that show. I couldn't help but laugh.


We spent one morning at the Tempe Beach Park splash pad. The boys had a great time.

After splashing in the water we had to take a break and get some sno cones. FYI: Sno cone shacks are very rare in Phoenix

We braved the heat and took a trip to the zoo one day.

The kids were exhausted after all the excitement of the zoo and from being out in the heat. This is what they looked like before we even got out of the parking lot.

My boys love going to the Childrens Museum. Tyler especially likes the pretend grocery store.

And they love the pretend pizza kitchens.

Here is Logan washing Tylers dishes for him. Gotta love being the little brother.

Logan fell asleep on the couch one day while I was making his lunch. This never happens so I had to take a picture of it.

A random close up of Logan that I thought was funny

Doesn't he have the cutest face you have ever seen.

Here is a picture of Tyler all ready to go to his first sleep over. He seemed so big and mature that I almost cried when he left.

Anyway life is good here. We are just counting down and getting everything all ready for our new little guy to arrive. 25 more days to go. Hopefully less. It would be so nice to come a little bit early. I'll keep my fingers crossed.
