Catch up

So....it's been a long long time since I posted last!!! Lots has changed in that little while!! Jason and I got married on Oct 10. It was a perfect day, with only a few small hiccups. But I guess it wouldn't be a wedding without a few things going wrong. The kids looked absolutely adorable. I promise to post pictures as soon as I get them. Thanks so much to everyone who was a part of our special day!!!

Jackson has wrapped up his fall football season. It is so much fun seeing how much he improves each time he plays. He makes me giggle how competitive he is and watching him interact with his friends. When two 8 year olds chest pump each other, it's impossible NOT to laugh!!

So I"ve decided to wrap this blog up and start a new one. So as soon as I get that one up and going I'll post the new name. I've decided to make this one into a book to have for scrapbook purposes, so if anyone can remind me how to do that I'd sure appreciate it!!!

Hope everyone is enjoying the fall weather we've been enjoying! I hate cold, but love fall. It's by far my favorite!

Stay tuned for the new blog address!!!

The Naughty, Crazy, Oh So Loveable Miss B....

I love this little girls so much!!! She is wild and crazy and naughty and silly and sassy and we'd be lost without her!!! She has the funniest expressions and makes us laugh every day!! I have always wanted a little girly girl and boy did I get one!! She loves dresses!! Her favorite color is pink, she even points to anything pink whether it's on the tv or in a store and yells "Pink!!!" She loves her babies, and carries them around with her all the time. She continues to be my least pickiest child and will eat just about anthing...although she does not like fish sticks. She loves ketchup and yells when she sees it and needs some on her plate. She loves shoes and is very particular about which ones she wears. She loves to get her hair done and does a great job about sitting still for me so I can style it. She loves necklaces and bracelets and rarely leaves the house without a few of them on. She is a very friendly little girl and is always waving and saying hi to everyone. She loves Cinderella...and I mean LOVES her. We bought her a Cinderella potty chair and she carried it and hugged it all the way home!! I'm hopeing it'll be the jump start we need to potty training!!! And yes, she still loves her binki....what can I say.... She is talking a lot these days and one of my favorite things that she says is "MaGa"'. That's what she calls my mom. She yells it and gets so excited when she's talking to her on the phone. I just love to listen to her babble.

These pics are from yesterday. I was zoning out on the computer yesterday morning and finally clued into the fact that she kept saying messy baby. I glanced over and said oh no Brooklyn....and started laughing. I had been watching my friends foster baby, and Miss Brooklyn decided that her baby doll needed to eat just like babies. So she proceeded to feed her prunes. She did a pretty good job, only a little ended up on her dress and the carpet. It was pretty dang cute to see her pretending.

And this is Miss B after she gets into my purse and goes straight for the lipstick. She loves lipstick and lipgloss. I'm telling ya, girly through and through.

I think she is pretty dang adorable and would be lost without her. I'm so happy that I get to be her Mommy!!! Love Ya Miss B to the moon and back!!!!

Summer is over.....

Could it be that the summer is over?!?!? It feels like it hardly started!!! We've got one more trip planned for this coming weekend as our final goodbye to the warm lazy days of summer and hello to the structured life that school brings. We're planning on heading to Bear Lake on Saturday, which I am super excited for!!! I think the kids will love it!!!

Jackson started 3rd grade today!! His teacher seems awesome, so we're both really excited for that. He picked the desk in the front row right smack in the middle. Such a good choice for a little boy that is going to be working on his listening skills this year!!!

Kaden was a little sad that Jackson was gone today, and was in fact crying today when I called him this morning. But his frown turned upside down when he realized that the babysitter has some special plans for while the big kids are gone!!!

So the kids are doing great!!! Jackson is signed up for flag football this fall, so that'll be good for him. Miss Brooklyn is her usual happy, naughty, loving self!!! I'll try to post new pictures soon.

And by the way, these are my new favorite treats!!! I got them at Cosco after being encouraged to do so by my friend Maggie, and can I just say, that they are seriously so yummy!!! And the best part, they're only 150 calories per pouch of yummy strawberry goodness. Although I must confess, I've eaten 2 today. Get some, you'll love them!!!

Summer Catch Up in Photos.....

So this summer has been soooo much fun, and it's sad to see it coming to an end, but getting back to a routine with school and such will be nice. I wanted to share a few pics with everyone. A couple are from the 4th of July, a couple from our birthday cakes for the birthday boy and princess from last month, and a couple from my try at a science experiment of sorts. It was for the receipe for Goup, but it did NOT turn out like it said it would at all!! But the kids had fun making a mess with it anyway!!!

This was last weekend, all the kids and Jason and I went to the local trampoline gym for a couple hours. The kids had a blast and were very worn out!!

Goup!!!
