Chase Field

The two above pics are in the clubhouse (locker room).

Hanging out in the dugout!

The kiddos are checking out the awesome stadium with the roof open. It was so hot that day!

We went last year to Chase Field. Every year they have a little fan fest for everyone to openly come and meet players, play on bouncies, check out the locker room, and just play on the field, ..........fun little tradition.

Ava's Valentine's

Ava had fun this year making Valentine's for her class. She wanted to look "special" at school that day and told me she wanted her hair to look like Taylor Swift on the side. Crazy how much she knows.....

34 weeks

So my last pregnancies I never took pics of my growing belly and I kept saying that for the next pregnancy I will document my growing belly......ummm totally hasn't happened. Who has time to constantly take pics of themselves especially when you feel like crap most of the time and aren't wearing much makeup? So, here is my attempt at showing you how huge I am so far! I chatted with my doc and he possibly said he would induce me if I wanted to a week before!!! Yep, that would be nice!

Birthday post

Yes, my hubby had a birthday over the weekend! The kids made cute cards and we made a cake for him. He is the greatest husband ever and the best father!!! Happy Birthday!!!

sledding and bowling

Ava and Lillie...they ended up bringing the same jammies...had to grab a pic.

This is just before Ava crashed into a big hard ball of snow and scratched the side of her face up. She wasn't too happy.....

The last weekend in January we went up to our friends cabin again near Payson to play in the snow!!! The kids love the snow and had so much fun. We also decided to check out the town of Payson and the kids went bowling for the first time! Ava tried to throw it a few times, but then decided to pull out the kiddie cheater thing to help out....is there a name for those? I also tried bowling and the last time I actually went bowling was the day I gave birth to Brec and I really didn't want to go into early labor in Payson this time, so I was using a kiddie ball with barely any weight and I could barely even fit my fingers in the holes. Let's just say my score wasn't so great!

Good times with the fam...........after this pic some small town dude told us where we could go to get some great pizza, and called it "off the hook" a billion times and some other funny phrases. It ended up not being "off the hook". Seriously it was no good!!! Small towns are funny.

January.......

This is Brec in his jersey when the Cardinals played a couple weekends ago. He had to be like dad wearing a jersey. I thought it was pretty funny that he was wearing heels, so I had to grab a pic......

We moved Brec into a big boy bed that same Saturday the 16th. He kept saying "big boy bed?" like in a question. He is doing good and pretty much stays in his bed until we come get him, unless we close his door as punishment if he is crying then he will jump out of bed and open the door and then get right back in bed and continue crying until we come in. Silly kid. He still wakes up in the night......it hasn't always been that way, only since 5 months ago he has had issues with sleeping and wakes up in the night and usually an hour before his normal wake up time, which again since 5 months ago he decided 6:30 would be his wake up time. So, it has been frustrating!!!! How do you get a 2 1/2 year old to sleep through the night?

As we all know, it rained like crazy and these are the pics of the kiddos out in their jammies jumping in the puddles in the grass! Actually, Ava has half her clothes on. I think my neighbors would have thought I was crazy if I let them lose in the front yard.

And.....Ava at school. They do a little program for the parents every once in a while so she got to show me all about the arctic region. She loves school. I can't wait until she is in kindergarten all day because she is always bored and always asks what we are going to do everyday, and the next day, etc. It drives me crazy!!!
