Fathers and Sons


Kyle took the boys to Fathers and Sons this weekend. They had a lot of fun. Bradley was so excited all day getting ready. It was really fun watching him. (By the way, this is Kyle's new truck. He likes it a lot. We got it a while ago. He sold the wonderful Impala. I would totally get one of those again. It will be severely missed :( But this truck is nice and it is very nice and essential to have a truck.)

Exercise Ball


The blessed exercise ball!!!


When Bradley was born he was very very fussy. Kyle had a huge exercise ball to do exercises for his back. We started bouncing Bradley on it when he would cry. It was a miracle worker. It would calm him down immediately. It would also put him to sleep. So when Ethan was born we still used it but it ended up popping (yes, I popped it okay sheesh). So we got this blue ball. It was to small. We never used it. So when Zack was on his way we saw this 75 inch exercise ball and had to get it. I am so glad we found it and only $10 at Ross :)

Mothers Day


Mother's Day was great. It started out by Kyle and the boys making me breakfast which was very good. Then I opened the presents they got me. They got me a digital frame. It is really cool. I like it a lot. (Thanks Kyle :) )



After Kyle and the boys went to church (I stayed home with Zack) we went to the cemetery. It was nice. We always have the hardest time finding Kyle's mom's grave site and we always end up calling Kemp to figure it out. We are bound and determined to remember it next time. (Even though I am having a hard time remembering right now what it is. I think it is between 7th and 8th street and 5 trees down. I am probably wrong:) )


After we went to the cemetery we went to my mom's house for dinner. My mom and dad made dinner for us. It was really good. It was a very nice mother's day.

Mornings


Lately Bradley and Ethan have been waking up and going out and watching Sesame Street. I woke up this morning and they were both laying on their blankets on the floor with their teddy bears. It was really cute and funny.


They have been so sweet and helpful with Zack. I love them so much.

Graduation 2

Kyle finished school like in October but his graduation was today! It was really nice. I am so proud of Kyle for finishing (and envious:) ). He is starting his masters tomorrow! So this was actually a celebration of the begining of his masters and end of his 6 month break! jk
Way to go Kyle!
Kyle walking across the stage. They just called his name.

Kyle on the big screen shaking Brent Richardson's hand (the CEO) and getting his "diploma" (which is actually already framed and hanging on our wall in our office:) )
The graduation was at the Glendale arena. It was nice.

At the begining of the graduation they told the story of this couple that had sixtuplets and that GCU is giving them all full ride scholoships. They will be the class of 2029! They brought them out on to the stage. It was cool.
Kemp, Daniel, Richard, Dad, Zack, Mom and I were all there.
Can you find Kyle? (hint: he loves me :))

He Graduated!!!
At the end they had confetti, fire stuff and lasers. It was really cool.

One Month

Here is Zack. He is one month old now. Crazy! That went so fast. He is going to be up running around with Bradley and Ethan before I know it. Time just flies by. It really does. Anyways, he is doing great. He is waking up like 2 to 3 times a night at like 10:00, 2:30, and 5. That is really good. The only problem that we are having is sometimes he wants to stay awake but when that happens I just put him in his swing and he usually falls back to sleep pretty fast. During the day he is wonderful. I just wrap him up in a blanket and lay him on my bed and turn on my fan and he falls asleep all by himself every time. That is really nice. He has been a great baby. He spits up a little bit but nothing compared to Bradley and Ethan. It only takes him like 5 mins. to eat. He is doing great. He is growing like crazy. It is so much fun having him with us. It is really funny. I was totally expecting to be stressed out and totally busy when he came but for some reason I feel like the most "with it" I have ever felt. Weird, I know. I think a lot of it is because my recovery was very very good and fast and he slept so much and compared to being pregnant I have tons of energy so I am able to do things :). But I figured out a schedule that really works for me and that has just been great! I wake up at 7. From 7 to 9 I get the boys bathed and dressed. From 9 to 11 we clean. From 11 to 12 I play with the boys and do something that they want to do. At 12:00 we eat lunch. From 12:30 to 1 the boys play in the loft and I clean up lunch. At 1 they take a nap! That is my day. And Zack just follows along with the schedule great. He has been such a great baby. He is so sweet. I love having a little new baby again. It is so much fun! And then to know that he is going to grow up and be like Bradley and Ethan that is very exciting. I love my boys so much. It is so much fun having a family and watching them all grow and learn something knew everyday. I am so grateful that I have the opportunity to have these boys.





Pictuers

So I decided to take pictures of the boys today and well by the time I got everybody bathed and dressed Zack was tired (go figure) so it is just Bradley and Ethan. I will try to take some of Zack later. I thought they turned out cute though. Bradley did very well. He really enjoys it (well at least for a little bit.) Ethan is a bit more challenging but what can you do :).






Out Takes :)

These are the toys that they love right now. Bradley learned how to do a puzzle that he loves. He did it all day yesterday. It is that puzzle book next to him. Ethan loves all books right now and he love to have me read them to him over and over.. and over again. :)
Sweet boys. They have so much fun together (a lot of the time:) )

funnies

Ethan is praying that this will be over soon.
So Strong!!!
Happy Ethan
"Ha Ha Ha!!!"

cuties

With Ethan I have to get any shot that I can. But he sure looks cute.
Bradley being my perfect little model. He will go in any position I put him in. He thinks it is fun :) Down side, he only holds it for like 5 seconds so I have to be quick :)
Strike a pose
"Yeehaw!"
