We celebrated Abbi's birthday the night before we went to Moab with the Roberts family. She got lots of presents, cake, and lots of love. We celebrated with the Warner family in Moab and hopefully I can get some pictures of that. Abbi had so much fun indulging into her piggy cake. Warner also had a cake of his own that he decorated and enjoyed. Happy birthday Abbi!!!

Happy Birthday little Abbi Rae

It's true our little baby is ONE this Saturday. We will be celebrating in Moab with family. I remember the day she was born. It seems just like yesterday. I was so excited for this baby to get here I went to the hospital three times with false alarms thinking she was coming. She is such a delight to our home. She loves to get up and walk. I can't hardly believe it. Most babies crawl because it's easier. Not this girl. She would rather stand up and try to walk even though she can only go 4 or 5 steps and then falls. She LOVES LOVES LOVES her big brother. He can make her laugh like I've never heard before. She is just a delight to our home. Happy Birthday Abbi Rae.
I loved this picture where she was pointing her toe like a little dancer. She's always on her toes like this. YUMMY is all I can say!

Future photographer?

Warner has this new obsession of taking pictures with the camera. I find him hiding under blankets with my cell phone taking pictures of himself. We have so many pictures of our keyboard, and then there's all the ones like you see now. He uses my old camera for a toy. We just keep batteries in it and the flash just keeps him thinking he's taking pictures. We love this kid and his imagination. It's so much fun seeing him grow up and how creative he is becoming.

What a mess


I remember the day that I figured out Warner loved Spaghettios and remember blogging about it. I decided to try them out with Abbi since she loves ALL food. These were a hit with no doubt. I hate the mess, but love how she has so much fun eating every last little Spaghettio on her plate. She seriously loves her food and everyone Else's for that matter. I hope she's always like this.

Nascar Baby

Ryan was invited again to Nascar in Vegas this year. It's officially a boys trip and will happen annually. He was so excited. I was excited because his driver Tony Stewart switched team which meant we got rid of the orange clothes. I'm not so sure about the red though? We'll see it's his first year on the Office Depot team so the clothing can only get better. He has so much fun doing this. They stopped in St. George and rode motorcycles. He promised he would take it easy since he has two kids and one on the way waiting for him at home. Well according to his friends he was reliving his child hood and tore it up. I'm just glad I wasn't there to watch. I would've had a heart attach. Were glad you got to go and loved it. The kids and I enjoyed our weekend at the sisters house. It's fun for us to go to American Fork and have Costco and Target right around the corner!

A lot to catch up with

Look out my little blog. I am finally feeling more like myself again being in the second trimester. I have a lot to catch up on so please don't hate me. Our little family loves this blog and the book we make with it each year, so we don't want to leave a single thing out!!

Just a days work

When I wake up in the morning I love to lay on my brothers lap while he drinks his chocolate milk and shares his favorite blankets with me. He's such a great brother who loves me so much.
I don't rest for long....my new favorite thing is to climb in the book basket and pull everything out. I look through all the books before throwing them on the floor for my mom to pick up.

That's right....I'm pretty impressed with my new trick. My only problem is I can't figure out how to get out of the basket?
Not only do I love doing dishes I LOVE pulling out all the pots and pans while my mom is in the kitchen cooking, she says she doesn't mind tripping over me or all the bowls because she knows I am helping. I have so much work to do in a day, it's amazing that I take time for my naps!





Happy Birthday Ryan


On Feb. 15th we celebrated Ryan's 35th birthday. Because it fell on a Sunday things were really hectic. With my stake calling Ryan is pretty much a single dad at church for the first four months. So he headed off to church with the kids, went to his meetings, came home for his requested roast dinner and a german chocolate cake, then back to church for more meetings. We celebrated again on Monday with family so he could sit down and enjoy himself for a moment. Plus I took him to dinner at Sagebrush grill that Friday night with some friends then we sat in the hot tub till all hours of the night. We hope you had a happy birthday!!! We love you so much!
