Christmas Pics

So since I have been so busy and neglected to post anything about christmas I thought I would just post some random pictures. We had a great Christmas and New year and don't want it to go unnoticed.

All 7 of my parents grandkids. Chad 14, Shane 11, Cameron 9, Gracen 7, Ava 4, Brody 7 mos, and Ryan 5 mos. What a good looking brood.
Brody's first time opening gifts- He enjoyed the paper more.


Christmas morning- Bright and early.

Brody eating a tag. .
Ava and Gracen practicing there "skills" with singstar. But you know I schooled them both!

9 Months Stats



Brody had his 9 month check-up yesterday and the stats are in : Weight= 26 lbs height= 31 1/4 in.. He continues his trend of being > 95% in size. He is crawling all over the place and trying to say words. He is still happy and laid back thank goodness. His eyes are still very blue- so we are thinking they should stay that way and he suddenly has tons of hair.the last 9 months have flown by and my baby is getting so big. He brings so much joy to all of us with his bright smile and I am thanful everyday that he came into our lives.


Fun on the slide.

Look at that Smile

In this one it looks like he is beating Ava up.

It's The Big "5" for AVA


Five Years ago today my precious little baby girl was born.I remember that morning very well at Banner Desert when I first laid my eyes on her.
Those five years have seemed to fly by. Today she is a spunky, stubborn, beautiful Diva. And everyday I still find more and more I love about her.Like how she loves to sing along in the car to songs with me, has the most endearing grin, can hold her own against her 9 year old brother and is becoming quite the learner.I always new I wanted a daughter because of the wonderful relationship I have with my mom and I look forward to seeing what kind a person she will grow into.Plus the clothes I get to buy!!!!


Here she is tonight at Applebee's Hamming it up!
