Alayna's first taste of cereal...

We've started feeding Alayna baby foods a whille back and I've been meaning to post this pictures because they are soooo cute!Better late than never right.....! She has also tryed green beans, bannanas and peas now too. I've been making it myself even though one of my LAME friends told me that "its too much work and its just as easy to buy the baby food jars" That is not true! The baby food jars are like $.50 each and you can get a whole thingy of carrots for like a dollar and it makes a ton of babyfood and you just cook it and thow it in a blender, it takes like five minutes and no preserivtives and its kinda fun. I hate people like that!!! Grr!!! Okay moving on!


And guess who started riding his bike without training wheels??? Yes, I know, I have the most awesomest three year old ever!! Masen amazes me everyday! I think I was at least five when I learned to ride a bike but I'm not too cordanated....And Masen has only had that bike for a few months! He has only had a few wipe outs. I'll post some pictures soon I promise. The kids were over last night and Waylon kinda broke Masen's seat so Masen needs a new seat. I told Jeremy we should just get him a real bike that doesnt have plastic tires but we'll see.
Well heres Alayna.......
First taste of rice cereal and Milk

Here we go!

What was that!?!!!

She hates it.

Daddy saved me!

I know I've been slackin'.....

Yes I'm still here! Life can get so busy with two kids and a hubby. Its super easy to get behind on things, I feel like my house is always a mess and theres always something that I need to do but I guess thats just what happens when your a mommy. Anywho heres some of my favorite pictures from the past few months that I've been meaning to post....

Heres the newest babies Alayna, Gauge, and Kenzi

Renon came up with Gauge and my dad gave him his blessing so we since we had all the grandkids together we couldnt pass up on pictures.

January 18, 2009

So today was Alayna's two month check-up. She weighed in at 12 pounds even and 23 1/4 inches long and that puts her in the 80th percentile which means she bigger that most of the chicks her age :) But big is beautiful! I love love love her chunky checkers! Masen is getting so big also! I've been working with him a lot more know and hes learning his colors and his ABC's. I can't believe that he's grown up so fast!

"I'm Itchy, I'm Itchy!!!"

I took Cosmetology in high school, I have my licence but I only use it to buy hair product. I've never felt confident doing men's hair cuts but for some reason I'm the one that cuts all the guy's hair in my family. I always remind them that its at their own risk but they always come back so maybe I don't suck at it as bad as I think I do. OR maybe its just because I'm free. Now just thinking about lady hair cuts scare me because I havent done one in years!

Anywho Brian brought over my nephews for hair cuts and they were so good! BJ sat real still even though he always has to remind me about the time I cut his ear..... and Waylon did very good! Normally half way threw the starts freaking out screaming.... " I'm Itchy I'm Itchy!!!!!" lol they both impressed me so much, I can't believe how big theyre getting!

Masen has never EVER sat through a hair cut. Last time I had to wrestle him on the ground and we rolled around the kitchen floor until we were both covered in hair. But after he saw the boys get their hair cut I told him it was his turn and he took his shirt off and climbed up in the chair all by himself! He was scared at first when I turned the clippers on but I showed him that they don't hurt and he was fine. Masen didnt move or cry the whole time! Afterwards I gave all the boys a fruit snack and told them how proud I was! Its crazy that I find so much happiness in such a simple thing!

Waylon's face is cracking me up in this picture!! Ha!

just a picture...

The boys left to the sand dunes so for the rest of the week its just me and this beautiful girl.....

Can you belive shes already six weeks old!!

 I told her to stop growing but she listens like her daddy :)

look what I did.....

Okay its a little sloppy but not bad for my first time embroidering ever! I always wanted to learn and thanks to my wonderful mommy in-law I at least know how to do it even though I need tons more practice but I had to show this off even if its on a old dish towel :)

Santa baby!

We took Masen and Alayna to see Santa the other day at the fire house. Masen was super excited to meet him but when we saw Santa, Masen was scared and just clung to Jeremy's leg! He wouldnt sit on his lap but as soon as we walked out the door he said he wanted to go see him again :) Alayna was a perfect angel and was happy to get her picture done but we'll see what she thinks of him next year.
