Some fun pics....


The boys opening up there Valentine's gift!

Bryson flying a kite in our backyard....it never got up very high, but he had a good time running around the backyard trying to get it up in the air!

Coby and Bryson loved the Batman slippers they got for Valentine's Day...this is them showing off there new slippers. Some days I am the greatest Mom!

Bryson's face is healing so fast! He's looking more and more like his oldself. I still get that "ABUSIVE PARENT" look when were out in public. I really wish I could put a sign on him letting everyone know this was a self inflicted wound!

You might be wondering what those "things" are on the table with Bryson...well this little boys loves to make things. He has a ton of toys but the thing he loves to do the most is sit in his "OFFICE" AKA his closet and make things out of paper. So far he has made a toy sled, rings, bracelets, airplanes, kites, a house, and slippers....yes those are all slippers for each member of the family. JD's are the ones furthest to the left that are big enough to be skies! He is so cute! Who knew you could make so many things out of paper and tape!

Tanner woke up this morning with some major "BEAD HEAD" and I couldn't resist capturing it on camera!!

Happy Birthday Tanner!!!









One? Really, my Baby is ONE!!!
I can't beleive how fast the time has gone by...our little baby is now ONE!!! He's walking, say's "Mama", and loves to chase his brothers around the house with his walker! He is such a fun baby, he loves to smile and flirt with people at the store and most of all he loves wrestling with his brothers. They are so cute together...my favorite Mommy moments are when I walk in on them all giggling at eachother!
We love our "BABY EINSTEIN" AKA Tanner! He adds so much love to our little family! Happy Birthday Tanner, WE LOVE YOU!

POOR BRYSON





As most of you heard Bryson took a horrible fall off of our stairway banister. He had decided to slide down on his stomach and fell all the way over the railing and smacked right into the tile floor bellow.
He got his first and hopefully last ride in an ambulance and was in a neck brace for over 24hrs. They had him hooked up to an IV just in case he needed to have emergency surgery (I think for Bryson that was the most tramadic part). He had two CT scans to check for fractures, which he ended up having one small fracture on his scull, one on his sinus post wall, and another one on his left lateral orbital wall! Needless to say my little boy took the brunt of the fall in his face! Luckily the fractures are very small and DO NOT require surgery.
He gave us all quite a scare, but it could have been so much worse!!
After two days in the hospital he is now home and acting like his old self again, and its just a matter of time before he looks like himself again too...I think dad said it best,"he looks like he got in a fight with Mohamid Ali"!
He has learned his lesson the hard way, he keeps telling me "Mommy I won't do that again...and if I see anyone do it I will tell them that thats a big no no's!!"

Hopefully, that is our last visit to the Emergency room this year! I have boys and I know its just a matter of time before one tries another "DARE DEVIL" stunt....just let it be a few years from now...I need time to recover!

High Lights of 2007


Of course TANNER is the biggest High light of '07!! He is such a fun baby...before he arrived I remember telling my family and friends "he better get used to being neglected", I have to laugh at that now...that boy is anything but neglected!! He is such a Mama's boy right now, I honestly think if he was back in the womb my life would be a whole lot easier...or if I could some how surgically attache him to my hip!

Our day at the lake in Colorado was so much fun! The water was of course FREEZING, but the kids had a blast throwing sand and splashing water around! JD and I got to go wake boarding, and my favorite Knee Boarding (Nancy you know what I'm talking about)! We haven't been able to go on any Lake Powell trips in awhile, so it was nice to get out on a boat and just drive across the water...that was a good day!

Buying a house and moving to Texas!!! I am enjoying TEXAS more and more each day, I don't know if I'm ready to call it "HOME"...but you never know! I will always have a special place for Colorado...I miss the seasons, YES even the snow, and many of our friends there!

Bryson starting Pre-School! He was so nervous about not having friends in Texas, so the first day of Pre-School was an exciting day for him, he got to make new friends, ride a horse, feed chickens, pet a dog, and even got stung by a BEE!!! He has the greatest pre-school here...I wish I could go to!!


Soccer Days...that was fun! My favorite was when Bryson would be yawning in the middle of a game! His coach was constantly saying "Wake up Bryson"...needless to say he wasn't the MVP or anything but we had a good time watching him play...or sleep walk...whatever you want to call it!

Driving an hour to Medina, TX to go to a pumpkin patch! The boys had a blast, they loved the hay maze and the giant playground they had there we didn't even pick out pumpkins!! When we got in the car to go home Coby says..."Mom, that was fun"...that makes my day :) I feel like "SUPER MOM"!!!



Torturing 2 out of 3 of my boys to see Santa...awww PRICELESS!!

Being able to spend Christmas with Family & Friends was a BIG high light!!! We had such a good time in AZ, it was actually difficult for us to leave...normally we are chompin at the bit to get home! We could have stayed another week or more! Thanks to our Family's for having such nice accommodations for us! And a big thanks to my Hubby who let me get away and spend some quality GIRL TIME...in a house full of boys good Girl time was very much needed!

Such a SWEETIE!!


Diaolog:
Bryson: "Mom one day I'll grow up and be a daddy?"
Mom: "Yep, one day you will grow up and be a daddy, but you have to get married first."
Bryson: "When I grow up and I'm a daddy size I'll marry YOU cause I love you!"
Mom: "I love you too!"

I didn't have the heart to break it to Bryson that you can't marry your mommy, he is such a sweetie! I hate to think of him as a Daddy size and going off and getting married! I love my boys and enjoy every minute we get to spend together, time goes by so fast! I am such a lucky mommy to have been blessed with happy and healthy little boys! Life is good!
