Here we are...July, 2011! Just got the internet back after not having it for about 2-3 months. I have missed looking at blogs. It has also made me realize how many things i would like to write down, but when the internet was down i couldn't. for instance-
last night while driving home from provo, Ashlyn was being so good putting on her new lip gloss we had just bought her.
I turned around and said "Ashlyn, you are so GORGEOUS!!"
beaming she says "ya mom, I cute!" (or so i thought that was what she said"
then i say, "OH! yesss, you're cute."
in a softer tone she then said "no mom, like you! I gorgeous like you!!!"
ok, my heart melted right there and i started to get a little teary.
"Mommy, don't cry. I'm sorry..."
I want to remember these things! I don't want to let life get too busy and forget the little things.
Treyden is a lot of fun right now. He is beginning to like to get a rise out of his sister and he lives for it. A typical brother, right?
That is all for now.
Life is good

Birthday Boy!

This cute little boy had his 1st birthday on Saturday.
We had so much fun with family that came to celebrate with us!
Cookie monster was the theme. We had cookie monster cupcakes, cake and shirts that Skylar and I wore.
Treyden is such a joy. I really feel so lucky to have such a sweet boy come into my family.
He is crawling all over the place right now. Starting to stand a little on his own. Walks along the furniture. Loves going up the stairs.
He is such a momma's boy right now. He just wants me to hold him all the time. If I am not holding him then he want me by him.
He says Ashlyn when I tell him to. Not clearly, but he gives it good effort.
He is such a bright spot in our lives!
Happy Birthday Treyden Buddy!

Let's not state the obvious...

ok, i know i'm terrible at this blogging thing, but my goal was to be better. not perfect. so on that note...

tomorrow is February. I can't believe that. time is going by way too fast.

The year has been great so far.

This month we went to hawaii with some of the briggs family members. It was such a great time! We even left the kids for the first time. It was great.

Ashlyn had a birthday while we were gone so we had a birthday party for her when we got back. she is such a fun little girl. She sure is lucky to have lots of people that love her so much.
