THE HANEY FAMILY STORY

Way Beind on stats

2011-11-18T21:38:00.002-07:00

Well I am so behind on my blog. I don't think I have posted any of Kayelee stats. So I can remember how fast I mean slow she grew. At birth she was 7lb 7 oz.
at her two week apt she was 7lbs 6oz that's the 25%, her height was 20in that's the 45% and her head was 13 3/4 that is the 25%.
Her 2 month was 8lbs 11oz that's the 10% her height was 20 1/2 in that's the 20% and her head was 15in that's the 30%.
At 4 months she was 10lb 8.5 oz that's the 5%, her height was 23 1/2in that's the 25%, hear head was 16 3/4in that's the 90%.
At 6months she was 12lbs 2oz that's the 3%, her height was 24.5in that's the 10%, and her head was 17in that's the 75%.
So as you can see she has not gained weight very fast. Just like her sister. She is also just like her sister in the fact that she will not bare weight on her legs. It will be interesting to see if she will be like her sister and not walk till 18 months. At least that why I think Addy did not start walking will 18 months was because she would not bare weight on her legs and because she just did not have enough muscle to keep her up. She stared rolling over about the second week in August. She did that to get around for about 1 1/2-2months then mid October she stated scooting. She is sitting up pretty well, every once in while she will tip over and go crashing down. The first time she scooted really well instead of just kind of going in circles she scooted from the middle of our living room all the way down the stairs. Yes she fell all the way down them. I felt so bad for not having the gate closed. She was fine she cried for only a second or two. I kept on a close watch on her eyes. made sure they reacted to light which they did. so for now she is still just a growing, and making us laugh every day.

First Time Eating Solid Food

2011-11-18T21:25:00.002-07:00

Back on September 10th I decided to give rice cereal to Kayelee for the first time. She was not impressed at all with it. It took her a good two weeks to learn how to eat with a spoon. she would open her mouth but would keep her tongue up like she was going to suck something. It also took me about 2 weeks to learn that she ate it better mixed with my milk then with water. (I know a little more info then you wanted but since I am also using this blog as a scrapbook/journal deal with it:))

Not so good

Here is what she looked like at the end of it

First Day Of Kindergarten

2011-09-22T19:05:00.002-06:00

WOW my baby boy is in kindergarten! I can't believe it! Jace had his first day of school on the 29th of August.

eating breakfast at school!

Addy with the Mckinly cougar. Jace was already sitting down with his class so we weren't able to get his picture with the cougar.

Bee Sting

2011-09-22T18:56:00.002-06:00

Back on the 21st of Aug. Addy was coming in the house from playing outside and got her first bee sting. Unfortunately it was on her lip. It immediately started to swell up. I called my mom because she is allergic to bee stings, to see what happens to her when she gets stung. She told me and also said to call the dr. I called and they gave me some tips on what to do. Luckily she doesn't seem to be allergic to them. The dr. did say because she was stung on the lip that it would swell a lot, but it only lasted about a day.

Sprinkler Fun!

2011-09-22T18:41:00.003-06:00

Having some fun in the sprinklers on a hot summer day.

being goof balls

Our New Pet

2011-09-22T18:32:00.002-06:00

The first part of August our neighbors moved and were unable to take there dog with them. So they gave him to us. He is a german short hair, and his name is Tebow. We decided to leave his name the same and not change it. Dan and the kids were so excited to get this dog. Dan has wanted to get a hunting dog forever! So now he has his hunting dog, the good thing is he was pretty well trained when we got him, so all the hard work for training him was pretty well done.

Bear River City 24th Of July

2011-08-20T19:55:00.005-06:00

Every year Bear River City does there 24th of July celebration. It is so much fun! I look forward to it every summer. They have a bunch of different booths and activities for the kids.they have a baby show witch we put Kayelee in. She didn't win but that's ok. I think she is cute! I did it for the fun of it and not for the winning aspect.

Waiting for the parade to start. and Tyler being a snot and not letting me take his picture.

haha got it.

My cute nephew and sister in law in the parade throwing candy.

Addy doing the fish scramble. (catching a trout with your bare hands)

Jace doing the fish scramble. Jace was so scared to even try to catch a fish. I don't think he even put his hands in the water

Addy getting ready to catch a bunny

Jace getting ready to catch a bunny. luckily neither of them did. I did not want to take a bunny home.

Addy getting ready to ride a sheep. because our camera is stupid and takes forever to take a picture we didnt get one of her on the sheep.

here she is after getting pulled off the sheep. I had them pull her off just after the gate opened so she did not get stepped on like Jace did when he rode a sheep.

With her aunt Julie coming to her mom.

4th Of July

2011-08-20T10:56:00.003-06:00

Over the forth of July went camping with Dans family up at Indian Ridge it was way fun! I wasn't to good at taking pictures of this trip. We had a ton of fun we had a scavenger hunt, and treasure hunt, and a swimming pool for the kids. the kids had so much fun. it was fun to watch them in the pool especially when the water was cold, and hadn't warmed up yet. Dan and the older kids slept in our tent, while me and Kayelee slept in the back of the van on an air mattress. I was a little worried about sleeping in the tent with her. I was worried that she would wake up the other two kids and that it would be to cold in the tent for her. I knew the van would be warmer and I wouldn't have to worry about her waking up the other two kids.

Swimming in the pool up in the mountains. (yes they are in their underwear we didn't know that grandma was going to bring a pool.)

Kayelee did a lot of this during the 4th. I am so glad I bought this little swing for her. It was so nice to just let her have her own space for a while instead of always having to hold her.

Addy, Jace, and Landon playing in Grandmas trailer.

A Day At The Zoo

2011-08-18T20:02:00.006-06:00

The end of August we decided to go to the zoo. We also decided to invite Dans cousin Kistina and her kids to come along. we had so much fun! the have some dinosaurs that the kids had fun seeing and getting scared by them.

on the train ride

seeing the first dinosaur, Jace was a little nervous that it was going to eat him. but we assured him that the dinosaur was not going to eat him.

Growling back at the dinosaur.

Riding the wooden horses

It was pretty cool we went to the little room by the elephants and the baby elephant was right by the glass window. the kids thought it was pretty cool to see the elephant that close.

Jace T-Ball

2011-08-07T16:29:00.003-06:00

Jace was able to play t-ball this summer. He had SO SO much fun. it was so fun and amazing to see how much he learned and grew from the first game to the last game. T-ball was so much better then soccer just because it was so much warmer.

Sleeping Addy

2011-08-07T16:24:00.002-06:00

I while back found Addy asleep downstairs like this.

After I took the above picture the flash went off and she moved up on the chair.

uh-oh

2011-08-07T16:19:00.002-06:00

I don't think I will be letting Addy bath Kayelee anytime soon by herself (not that I would.)

Kayelee's Special Day!

2011-08-07T16:10:00.002-06:00

Kayelee on here special day. Dan was able to give our little Kayelee a name and a blessing June 5th it was such a special day for her. She was so good during her blessing. and after her blessing we had a little luncheon at our place. It was a good day it was really hot outside. It turned out to be a good day. I did forgot to get pictures of Kayelee with my family, and my 4 generation picture with both of my grandmas. so other then that is was a very nice day!

Kayelee

Preschool Graduation

2011-08-07T15:54:00.003-06:00

Jace graduated from Preschool back on May 25th. He did such a good job on all his parts! I really can't believe that he starts kindergarten in less then a month.

2 Months Old

2011-05-29T17:51:00.003-06:00

Holy cow my baby girl is already 2 months old. That went by way to fast. Kayelee at two months old you are so much fun. You are changing every day. You are starting to really enjoy your baths, but you HATE getting lotion put on. I am not sure if its just from getting out of a warm bath and then being cold or that you just don't like it. We have tried keeping half your body covered, that works sometimes but not all the time. You had your first smile on 5-6-2011. We have yet to get a picture of you smiling you don't give them out every often. Hopefully in the next few days you will smile for us and we can get a picture of it. You are sleeping better at night finally. For the first few weeks of your life, the only way you would sleep was next to me. I would always start you off in your bassinet that is in our room. But after about 30 min of trying to get you to sleep in your, bed I gave up and just put you in with mom and dad. You are also starting to be awake more through out the day. Your brother and sister LOVE you so much they love to help with you and hold you. You LOVE your binki you have taken it pretty much since the moment you came out. When you are being held you would rather be held upright more then cradled. When you take naps you like to be in your swing. I am working on that to get you to sleep in the bassinet. When you were on the bili lights you did a lot better then your sister did. You had a couple of hard times in it, but for the most part you did really well. You are just like your brother and sister and still just tiny at 2 months old you still fit into your newborn cloths.

I meant to do this also at one month old as well, but I forgot. so sorry there is a lot of jumping around.

Kayelee on 4-1-2011

New Born Pictures

2011-05-23T16:23:00.016-06:00

Here is Addisons preschool pictures and her class picture. Her first day of preschool was picture day(as well as St. Patrick's day hence the green) and they failed to tell me this. If I would have known it was picture day I totally would have sent her in something a whole lot cuter.

2011-05-19T10:33:00.006-06:00

Soccer

2011-05-19T10:06:00.003-06:00

Jace was finally able to play spring soccer this year, here in Tremonton kids can't do sports till the year before they go into kindergarten. He had so much fun! He missed his very first game since we were in the hospital having Kayelee. He did such a great job, he almost scored a few goals each game but every time the ball was stopped. Hopefully at fall soccer he will be able to score a goal or two. It was kind of funny out of all the soccer teams, on Jaces team there were two Jaces and two Haleys. Kind of weird how that worked out.

It had been raining earlier that day and in between games Jace and another teammate found a worm in the grass here they are looking at it and trying to get it out of the grass.

getting ready for the game to start.

Jace is the one in the orange hat

getting ready to through the ball in. Its kind of funny to watch Jace through the ball in he throws it into himself.

Kick it Jace!

Addisons Surgery

2011-04-19T16:44:00.006-06:00

Yesterday (4-18-11) Addison had to have her tonsils, and adenoids out, and tubes put in her ears. She was the same as Jace and would stop breathing at night. Addy however was a lot worse. Her tonsils were touching each other.

While I was in labor my brother and sister-in-law brought us up some balloons from the kids. Since the hospital has a ban on no kids can be in the hospital under age 14. After I delivered and were gathering things up to take to my room, we noticed that the blue balloon was half the size it used to be. The balloons must of known what we were going to have.

Addisons 3rd Birthday

2011-02-23T21:21:00.004-07:00

Sunday my baby girl turned 3 years old! Since her birthday was on a Sunday I decided that I would do a little family birthday party for her. It was way fun! We just had Hamburgers and hot dogs, salads, chips, and of course cake and ice cream for dessert.

Oreo Cookies

2011-02-23T21:11:00.003-07:00

The other day I decided to let the kids have a little treat after dinner. I had some oreo cookies, and well you can't have oreos without milk. I think this may be the first time they have had oreos and milk. I usually hide them from the kids so there is more for me and Dan. They have had just the cookie, but I really can't remember if they have had them with milk before. So here are a few pics of them with there cookies and milk.

Addy And Bye Bye Binky

2011-02-11T22:42:00.005-07:00

Today we sent Addisons binkies to the binky fairy. She did really well with sending them off she did not have a problem with letting them go at all. Even when we put her to bed tonight she did not even cry for a binky. She did so much better then I thought she would, she was so much more attached to her binky, then Jace was. Way to go Addy we are so proud of you! You are now an official big girl!

She has been having a lot of fun playing with her pony, giving it medication, giving it a shots which is actually a thermometer, and listening to the heart beat.

I also wanted to post the video of it, but our computer for some reason wont ready the cd. I will have to see if I can record it off the t.v some how, or try and see if someone else can figure out how to get the video off of the cd.

31 Weeks

2011-02-06T20:31:00.003-07:00

I decided to get some more belly shots since its been, about 3 months since the last time I had belly shots taken. The pictures were taken my personal photographer Jace.

30 Week Ultrasound

2011-02-06T20:10:00.004-07:00

When I went in for my 28 week apt. (I think it was 28 weeks) I was measuring a week in half big. so to be on the safe side my Dr . wanted me to get an ultrasound to see if the baby was big or if I could have extra fluid. Everything came back fine with the ultra sound. It was so fun to see the baby again. It was really nice to be able to have Dan there for that apt. He was able to finish work early and able to go the the ultra sound. I hope I remembered everything right on the ultrasound pictures.

My Little Chef!

2011-02-06T19:55:00.002-07:00

At preschool a couple of weeks ago Jace made homemade bread. He came home and told me all about it. How he followed the recipe and help make it. He was so excited to come home and eat it. Since then he keeps asking me how I make things and whats in them. So I tell him how I did it, and what was in it. He asks if I have a recipe for it. And if he can have a copy of the recipe. Its so fun to see him learn new things everyday in preschool. I LOVE his teacher she is so amazing! Last week she did a little test with them to see how much they know. Jace can count to 16 she had the letters A-J and Jace could name and recognize them. He needs practice writing his little a he writes it backwards. So we have been working on that, and he is getting so much better. Jace has also started to read, I can't believe my 4 year old little boy is reading. He has started out with the sight words. He knows all the ones he has been working on, which are- mom, be, you, stay, a, tip, see, pig, I, like, my, little, come, my, dog. I am amazed at how fast he is picking up reading.

Jaces Plan

2011-01-10T19:39:00.002-07:00

So this is a video of Jace telling me how he is going to trap Addison and get rid of her. I promise he really does love and care about his sister. I think she must of just been on his nerves today. A few minutes while after this video was taken he changed his mind and said he wanted to keep her.

Jaces Owie

2011-01-10T10:20:00.002-07:00

Last night we went to my parents house so Dan could see if he could get my parents tv to work. While we were there Jace tripped over my feet and hit head on the foot rest of the lazy boy. Dan picked him up and noticed he was bleeding. We got him into the kitchen and got the bleeding stopped which only lasted for a min or two. We also put an ice pack on it to help with the swelling. Luckily the cut was not very big or deep so we didn't need to get stitches or anything like that.

This one was taken this morning look how much the goose egg has gone down.

Shooting With Papa

2011-01-04T12:57:00.002-07:00

Yesterday we took Jace shooting his new gun with papa. However Jaces gun you need a key to unlock the bolt and we left home without it. We did not realize this until we got to the shooting range. We were able to rent a 22 gun for Jace to use. He really liked to shoot the one we rented because you are able to shoot a bunch of rounds before you have to reload. Jaces gun is just a single shot so you have to reload after every shot. The pictures are not the best cause since I am pregnant I am not allowed in the range, so I had to take pictures behind the glass.

Putting On Makeup

2011-01-04T12:47:00.003-07:00

Nana Barnes gave Addy some makeup for Christmas, she has had so much fun with it. The other day I was in the kitchen doing something. Jace and Addy came in and told me they were going to put on make on each other. It was pretty cute to watch them play together and have fun.

There is no picture of the finishing job of Jace it wouldn't show up in the camera she did not put enough on his face for it to show up.

Christmas Night At Nana Haneys

After my family had there Christmas party in Logan we drove to Payson to spend time with Dans family. We got there and the kids opened there gifts. Jace got a 22 gun and Addison got a Mattel sing a ma jig. No picture of Addy with her toy. They were both pretty excited about there gifts.

Jace shooting his new 22

If you can notice in this picture Jace is left eye dominant. We have some work to do with him in getting him trained to use his right eye. Right now Dan just stands behind him and helps him aim and holds his left eye lid down. We have also thought about getting him some safety glasses and blacking out the left eye.

Christmas 2010

2011-01-03T23:40:00.006-07:00

This year for Christmas was so much FUN! The kids were so fun to watch them open there gifts! they both got probably way to much, but I don't care I got some sweet awesome deals on everything I bought. I was able to get so much that there birthdays are all done. The kids both kept on saying that they wanted Santa to bring pillow pets. Jace wanted a dog and Addy wanted a purple cow in her words (which is the unicorn.) A pillow pet is what always stayed the same for Jace it never changed. The animal did which was my doing because he wanted a polar bear this is not a pillow pet brand which did not matter to me, but I did not want him to have it since it was all white. I knew it would get dirty fast and easy so with a little convincing I was able to change his mind to the dog. Addys always was the purple cow so that was easy. They both got tons and tons of cloths which they both really needed, so that was nice that they got that. Jace actually
seemed excited about getting clothes, and Addison just liked to open gifts.
As santa was getting the gifts from dad and mom out from the tree he bumped it and broke the base (that had been braking for the last 3 years.) Thankfully santa was able to fix it and it lasted till morning when Maggie ran into the tree and bumped it then it was a goner. Oh well at least it lasted till morning.

My poor broken tree if you look to the left the glowing blue corner of the chair is my star. I did not dare put it up on the tree and risk breaking the fix job we did.

Christmas Eve 2010!

2011-01-03T23:27:00.003-07:00

On Christmas eve we went to my aunts house and had a great time as usual. We ate soup and bread bowls and had a great time visiting and playing the chimes well trying to play them that is. We did get better at playing them when we stopped singing. I wasn't able to get a picture of Jace playing the chimes, he was sitting in front of me or we were playing at the same time. So you will have to pretend that you see Jace playing the chimes.

Addison helping Julie play her chime

Addy playing one all by herself

I LOVE this picture of Addy and her Grandma Great! I LOVE my grandmas smile in this picture!

Crazy Funny Girl!

2011-01-03T23:21:00.002-07:00

My funny little girl, a few weeks ago I went and checked on Addy before I went to bed and this is what I found. She had got some of her babies and stuffed animals, the ones I had that are hers now, and she had laid them all around her. She is such a funny little girl, it cracked me up when I saw this.

Bear River City Christmas Dance

2011-01-03T23:05:00.003-07:00

I took the kids to the BRC Christmas dance this year to dance and meet Santa clause. They had fun dancing and playing. They both loved to dance it was so hard to get good pictures of them they were both moving so fast.

My Little Stinker Butt!

2011-01-03T22:59:00.003-07:00

Addy LOVES make up! We were at Grandmas house and she got into her makeup, and put on some mascara all by herself.

Haney Baby #3

2011-01-03T22:34:00.004-07:00

On November 24th we had our ultra sound for baby number 3! every thing went really really good. Since Dan was still in training for his new job he was unable to be there for the ultra sound so my mom came with me. Me and Dan had decided a long time ago when we were pregnant with Addison that the next time we got pregnant we were not going to find out what we were having since we now knew we had one of each. So we suck to our guns despite what some family thought of us not wanting to know. So one of the rules of my mom coming to the ultra sound, was she was not to find out what we were having, or she was going to have to sit in the waiting room. She agreed and was able to come in with me. I have to say not finding out what we are having has been so so so much fun! Its been so much more fun then I thought it would have been. I would totally recommend that everyone not find out what they are having.

The first ultra sound picture is of the babies profile it has the cord up by its face and hands. It almost looks like the baby is holding on to the cord, but the u.s. tech the cord is behind the babies fist.
The second picture is more of the front view of the baby and again the cord is up by its fist.
The third picture again is a profile view, with the cord up by its fist.
The 4th picture is a profile view of the baby and he/she is sticking out its tongue.

If you click on the pictures it should make them bigger so you can view them better.

I hope I got the tongue, it is at least in the right area. I can't quite remember where the u.s. tech said it was. I guess that will teach me to forget something at my in-laws house.

The Surgery

2010-11-16T15:05:00.007-07:00

On the 10th Jace had to have his tonsils, adenoids out and tubes put in his ears. He had to have his tonsils and adenoids out because he would stop breathing at night. On Wednesday he did not have to be to the Hospital till 10:45 he was one of there oldest kids that day so he was one of the last kids to get his surgery done. Also Tuesday night he could not have anything to eat or drink after midnight. So I kept him up as late as I could which was 11:00. Then I gave him some food and drink and let him go to sleep. He woke up at 9:00 that morning, I was hoping he would sleep a little longer but thats alright.

Jace after we got him dressed in there scrubs and slippers. He was doing really good and excited to have his surgery until we had to get him changed. I think he just started to get scared.

Now he is happy and coloring his book they gave him.

his ankle bracelet

these were the only two pics, I could get with him with his doctor hat on.

After getting back from recovery. He did not like the iv in him he kind of woke up two or three times and asked for this thing out of his hand. I just told him we could not cause it was giving him medicine to feel better. He was fine with that and left it in for about another hour.

My Fractured Elbow

2010-10-12T22:18:00.004-06:00

On Sunday the 26th I was out putting the hose out for our tractor sprinkler I was walking backwards, and I tripped over the new tree we had just put in. I tripped over the stake and rope that was anchoring the tree and fell backwards, and I think I caught myself with my elbow. I heard a break and wasn't sure if it came from me or the tree. Since I did pull the tree down with me. I looked over the tree and couldn't see anything wrong with it. I went in the house and started reading over my primary lesson for that day, and as time went on it started to hurt more and more. I told Jace to go and get his dad. When Dan got upstairs I told him what happened, and I thought we needed to go to the insta-care. I was not going to pay $100 co-pay for an er visit when I can go to the insta-care for $25. I knew I would be fine riding over to Logan, plus it would be cheaper in gas and a co-pay then an er visit.

The insta-care did x-rays, but they were unable to see a break or anything because of all the fluid that was around my joint. They decided since I was in so much pain that they would put my arm in a splint, wrap it in ace bandage, and in a sling. They told me to call this Orthopedic surgeon and get an apt. with him in the morning and they would be able to help us and tell us more.

So Monday I called over to Dr. Murry and got in that afternoon. by that time a radiologist had looked at my x-ray and had found my break. Dr. Murry showed us where it was and what they were going to do for me. They left it in the hard splint that the insta-care did. They said they don't like to cast elbow joints because you lose mobility so fast. Since I had it in a splint that I could take off I was to exercise my arm daily.

This first x-ray is the one the insta-care did. where the arrow is pointing is the break.

this was today's x-ray 10-12-10 this was after two weeks being in the splint. We met with Dr. Murry today and he said if I am home try to keep the splint off and just keep it in the sling. If I am to go out of my home put it in the splint and sling. Then slowly stop using the sling, and the splint.

Oh and in case you wanted to know or even cared this is my first broken bone.

My Little Duck Hunters

2010-10-12T22:11:00.002-06:00

Dan took the kids and Maggie out duck hunting a couple nights ago, this was Addys first time duck hunting. I think she really enjoyed going and had fun with her dad and brother. To bad they didn't see anything that they could shoot. Jace really likes to go duck hunting with his dad as long as they don't have to walk way to far.

2010-10-12T22:10:00.001-06:00

Bangs

2010-10-12T22:04:00.003-06:00

A few weeks ago I wanted to see if Addy had enough hair to pull back in a full pony tail in the back. she had just enough hair kind of. Her hair is still so short in some places that it takes a lot of hair spray to get it to stay. I also decided to see if I could do bangs. they kind of turned out like 80s bangs but I couldn't get them to go any other way.

I like this picture cause you can kind of see her little dimple.

Poor Jace

2010-10-12T21:37:00.002-06:00

A couple of weeks ago Jace tripped and hit his tooth. After he Calmed down I looked at him a little better and noticed that his front tooth has been knocked back. I called the dentist and they said to bring him in to make sure it did not effect his root. I called Dan and he was able to come home and take Jace to the dentist. They got back from the dentist and the dentist gave him a dollar and let him pick out a couple of toys, and his dad got him a slushy. The dentist said that the root looked good and that it shouldn't effect his permanent tooth, but it will most likely turn dark. which I noticed yesterday that it is already turning dark. Sorry the pictures are blurry on the little camera screen they did not look blurry, so sorry you get to look at blurry pics.

here you can see it has been pushed backed. it was even with the other front tooth.

a front view

again a front view and his sore lip where he bit it.

Messy Addy

2010-10-12T21:32:00.002-06:00

I gave Addy a Chocolate doughnut a while back and a big glob of frosting came out while she was eating it, and landed on her cute little face. She thought that was the funnest thing that she had that frosting all over her face.

Jaces First Day At 4 Year Old Preschool

2010-09-09T22:01:00.003-06:00

Jace started his first day of 4 year old preschool on Sept. 2 he loves his new teacher, and she is such a wonderful teacher!

Hurt Toe

2010-09-09T21:57:00.002-06:00

The other night Jace was running to his bed and stubbed his toe. I made sure he was ok and put him in bed. I went to check on him a little later, and he had his foot propped up. I thought it was so funny. But he must have just closed his eyes, cause as soon as I took the picture he woke up and said, hey mom did you just take my picture?

Riding Rides At The Fair

2010-09-09T21:44:00.004-06:00

The kids had so much fun riding rides at the fair. We went the first night and it was a mad house. if it wasnt for each ride only being one ticket, we would have left and done it another night.

Jace going down the slide, for some reason Jace looks a little scared in this picture. I promise he really did like it, he asked over an over to ride the slide again.

Addy and Daddy

Jace being a goofball waiting in the huge line for the kid roller coaster.

This picture is kind of blurry, but I loved Addys face in this she loved loved riding the rides she would scream and yell on every ride.

Jay Laughing

2010-09-09T12:44:00.004-06:00

This is my cute little Nephew Jay. I just love his laugh! He had so much fun with this little game we played. And yes I know it sounds like I am really hitting him hard with this blanket but I promise you I wasnt. The camera was just so close it picked up every little sound.

Mesa Falls

2010-08-11T10:50:00.003-06:00

The day after we saw Yellowstone we stayed the night in Driggs Idaho. Then the next day we meet up with Dans family at Mesa Falls. it was a good time we had lunch walked around the falls and had a good time with family.

Photos From My Phone

2010-08-10T18:01:00.002-06:00

Dans step brother has this bungee tramp thing so we put addy in it to go for a ride. I think she really liked it.

Jace getting some funny gas before getting his filling filled, his first one ever. He did not like getting his teeth worked on. he doesnt mind the check up apt. but man o man he did not like those drills and all that in his mouth.

the kids found this hammock at Smith and Edwards

Yellowstone Day 1

2010-08-10T12:02:00.005-06:00

The weekend of July 24th we went with Dans family to Island Park and Yellowstone. We went a day earlier then everyone, I wanted to see Yellowstone and take the kids to it. I had never been to Yellowstone before. so I wanted to go and drive around and see things I knew we would not see with Dans family.

a mama elk and her baby

this was my first time seeing real Lilly pads

Jace and Addy at the continental divide. there was this little lake by it.

two huge elk

eating some dinner.

at the dragons mouth

there so close to the pathway. some people got so close to the buffalo trying to get back down the path.

This little baby deer was so fun to watch. It was running all around and playing. it was so so fun to see these guys in there element. I could have watched the deer running and playing all day.

Jace and Addy at one of the hot pots I liked how this one was green. it matched Jaces shirt so I had to take a picture of it.

look at how close this buffalo was to our car. We could have stuck our hand out the window and touched it.

This picture does not show beautiful the moon was reflecting off of Yellowstone lake.

Jace At The Archery Range

2010-08-10T11:05:00.004-06:00

A little awhile ago Jace got his very own bow. its an old one of Dans that he had when he was little. Jace LOVES his bow he could shoot it all day long if he could. I just wish he could shoot it in our back yard. but I guess that's what you get for living in a city.

shooting at a deer

Thats where he shot it

shooting at the bobcat

Lamb Days

2010-08-10T10:50:00.003-06:00

Camping (lots and lots of pics)

2010-07-16T11:37:00.011-06:00

the weekend after the 4th we went camping up Logan canyon it was way fun! the kids had so much fun and got so so so dirty. Its a good thing that we had a shower to hose them down with.

look at all that dirt. this was after we just got to our camp we didnt even have all of the car unloaded yet by the time Addy got this dirty.

So cute what good kids they are.

This Girl Really Will Eat Anything

2010-06-19T00:25:00.002-06:00

Addison will eat anything and I mean anything! Dan bought some seaweed to snack on. Addy just thought she had to have some, so Dan gave her a little piece. She gobbled it up fast and asked for more. And every time for the couple of days we had the seaweed she wanted some. I finally decided to get a picture of her eating it. I think its nasty, well I have never tried it, but it smells nasty.

Another Tub Post

2010-06-18T23:55:00.003-06:00

I got this idea from another one of the blogs I follow. all you do is go to the dollar store buy some glow sticks, break them up and toss them in a dark bathroom. the kids LOVED it they could have stayed in there for ever playing.

Kids In The Tub

2010-06-18T23:38:00.005-06:00

We were at Helens a few weeks ago, and I bathed the kids in her jacuzzi tub. The kids thought is was pretty fun, to be in the tub with the jets going. They both loved to put there backs on the jets, and feel them hit there back.

Hogle Zoo With Dans Family

2010-05-26T12:31:00.011-06:00

About a month ago Dans sister and her family came to Utah from Florida and were able to spend some time with us and Dans other siblings. So one day we decided to go to hogle zoo. We also had Dans cousin and her family meet up with us as well.

Jace feeding the Giraffe its not a very good picture, but its all I have.

3 Year Old Preschool Gradution

2010-05-26T12:07:00.003-06:00

Jace graduated from 3 year old preschool. well kind off, his teacher only let her 4 year olds going into kindergarten walk and get a diploma. So I think that I will make a diploma for him my self. For the record I did not like her as a teacher, I fell like Jace did not learn anything while in her class. I kind of wish I would have dared to pull him out, but i was to big of a chicken to do that. I am just glad that he will be with a new teacher next year.

Addy Has A New Room

2010-05-26T11:22:00.006-06:00

Just some ransom pics of the kids having fun, while having a hot dog roast with some of Dans family.

Camping In The Back Yard

2010-05-02T14:17:00.006-06:00

On April 17th Jace wanted to sleep in the tent. So Dan got it all set up and everything ready for him and Jace to sleep in, me and Addy slept in the house where it was warmer and where our beds were. Before they went to sleep Dan dug a pit to roast marshmallows. The kids loved being able to roast marshmallows. They did sleep out the whole night witch I was surprised about. I thought for sure they would come, in the house in the middle of the night.

4 Year and 2 Year

2010-05-02T14:06:00.002-06:00

I am so late at posting this, but the kids had there well visits clear back in March. Jaces stats are his weight was 38.6 lbs that's the 75%, his height was 41 1/3 inches and that was the 75%, they either forgot to right down his head circumference or they didn't do it. Addisons stats were weight 24.0 lbs that's the 20%, her height was 33 inches that's the 45%, her head circumference was 18 3/4 in that is the 55%. and just so you know Addisons 18 months percentiles were weight 10%, height 50%. so she went up in weight. yeah Addy! and down in height boo. well hopefully this means that she is starting to gain some weight.
