Logan turned 2 years old today, and yes they will be terrible. Just this last week he has gotten into so much trouble. He is now throwing fits in the grocery store. YOU know the ones where there screaming at the top of their lungs and everyone is staring at you. He started telling me, No, and when ever he doesn't get his way he is crying. Good things he so cute.


Logan does have the cutest personality. He is so funny. I always just watch him and laugh. He loves to dance. One day he'll be on Dancing with the Stars. His favorite show is Curios George. So I made a really cute cake for his Birthday (yes I made it). I think I'm going to have to start calling him Curious Logan, because everytime I turn around he is into something. I cant keep up with this kid. As a matter of fact right now he is sitting in the middle of KitKats and is covered in chocolate. Oh my gosh!Ok, So this picture was supposed to have Logan in it but he did not want his picture taken.

We Love you Logan, Happy Birthday!!!

My little dancer

So tonight as I was trying to get Logan to bed I was watching Dancing with the Stars, and everytime the music came on Logan jumped up and started dancing. He would try to do whatever they did, my favorite was the shimmy though. The video doesn't even do it justice. I was laughing so hard. All this time I've always wanted a little girl to take to dance and all along I've had a little boy sitting next to me waiting for the music to be turned on.

AAAggg! Ya so on my last blog I mentioned Logan loves to draw on himself, well I just turned around and Logan has colored all over himself and the TV. Better go.

Kiddy Tag


Cute little Logan got tagged so I'm going to tell you five things you may not know about him.
1. He loves to draw on himself. Whenever he finds a marker its a garantee that he'll be covered.
2. He finally started talking. Yea!!

Last weeks update

I have been really bad this week and I have not blogged. I did however get on every day and read all your blogs, I just really havent had anything exciting happen. Which in my life is good. I took Braxton shopping on Monday to spend some of his birthday money, and he bought a skeleton halloween costume and a fishing pole-you know the one they show on tv that shoots the cast out. I don't even know how to fish, hopefully somebody will take him. Before we even got home Braxton had his costume on. When he got out of the car he ran in the backyard and scared all the kids playing. Logan was a little jeolous so I had to dig out one of Braxtons old costumes, The Skunk. It was so cute Logan was so excited he kept saying "unck, unck". They've been dressing up everyday. Wednesday Braxton had his soccer game. They did ok. He is just not the aggressive type, when the ball is coming he runs the other way. On Friday Braxton went on a campout with his friends from church. He said he had a great time. Me, Logan and Cooper sat home and watched curious george all night. Which brings me to my next topic. I cannot wait for all the new shows to start. I have been watching kid shows for the last few months. I have actually started to get my kids to bed earlier so that by the time they start I can start having some time to myself to sit and watch what I want to watch. My favorite shows are- Greys Anatomy, Ugly Betty, One Tree Hill, Dancing with the Stars, Brothers and Sisters, The Secret Life of an American Teenager, and The Practice. I cant wait!!!

How I've kept my SANITY

This last week I've been asked a couple of times how I've been able to be doing so well and still be laughing. Well, my only response is because of all of you. I have never been surrounded or have felt so much support and love from everybody until now. First of all my great parents for helping me out with the kids, and calling to check up on me and make sure I'm doing ok. My dad who helped me get on a budget. I never relized how much money I was spending, mostly on eating out. I have always said that its cheaper eating out because most of the grocerys I bought would just be thrown out because we wouldn't use them in time. This week I actually ran out of bread. I was in shock. Now when I ask my kids if they want to go to McDonalds they tell me they would rather eat at home. I actually tried to bribe Braxton and said we could go inside and play on the toys, but no he wanted a grilled cheese. Next, my great in-laws. Thanks Vicki for giving up all your Saturdays to wake up at 6 in the morning and come watch my kids. They have been so great. They have sacrificed so much for me and my boys to have a great life. Some day in some way I will pay you back for all your generosity. Also thanks Ted and Sindi for being there to talk too and watching the boys. I am so thankful.
I cant forget my friends for calling and checking up on me and always offering to help me in anyway they can. You are all so great. I love you. Thanks Sherice for being such a great friend, you helped me out when I was in need. Sometimes just going to get your hair done and talking is all you need to make your whole week. I love my two friends Erin and Jen for running with me and helping me burn off all my extra steam, and a few calories. I look forward to it all day long.
My ward and nieghborhood have been great, Bringing me dinners unexpectantly. Somebody showing up when I need to talk, not knowing why they came over. They just said they were thinking of me and thought they would drop by. Marcel for helping me with my kids at sacrement the few times I'm there, and always offering a helping hand. Thanks to everyone who helps keep an eye on Braxton when he's out playing and I have no idea where he is at. I figure he'll come home eventually. Thanks Erin for letting him spend the night on a school night so I could make a little extra money (that doesn't sound so good, I went to work, at Primarys). I couldn't have picked a better place to live.
Since, I brought up work I have to let you know these are my councelers. Everytime I go I get 12 hours of 25 women telling me their trials and helping me realize I'm not alone. It is amazing how much people go through, and for some reason when its just a bunch of women we talk, about everything. These guys have gone through all my rollercoasters with me over the past 8 years. They have been there to cry on, laugh with and discuss all my frustation. I have had so much drama they love to come see whats happening in my life. They know they'll always get a story out of me.
So you can see, this is how I survive because I know that everyone is willing to help me in what ever way they can. They are all so amazing. I am actually at peace with everything thats going on and I am thankful for everything thats happened in my life. I have three beautiful children that I love more then anything, I have the best parents, in-laws and friends anyone could ever ask for. So thank you for everything you guys do for me I love you all.
So I forgot to thank my wonderful sister and brothers. They are the best. There always looking out for me and helping me all the time. I love you guys very much.

Kangaroo Zoo

Kangaroo Zoo was a blast. There was so much for them to do. All the kids were saying that this was the funnest day of their lives. They are so funny. Me and Erin didn't have to do anything we had a little host that took care of it all. Little Logan as I mentioned before thinks he's five so he didn't want to play on all the stuff for kids under 4, he had to go on all the big slides and I had to help him climb up all the blowups so I got my exercise. I was exhausted by the time we were through. The boys got some really cool presents, and we had an awsome skeleton cake. Thanks Erin!!.

Happy Birthay Braxton



We celebrated Braxtons birthday yesterday. He woke up in the morning a little grumpy as he walked down the stairs I started singing happy birthday and dancing. I did get a little grin from him. At school they made him a book, which he loves. At night the family all came over and had cake and icecream and of coarse opened presents. Today we are going to the kangaroo zoo with all his friends. He is having his party combined with one of his best friends Eathen. Me and his mom will be taking 16 kids. Ahhh. What were we thinking. Braxton is now 6 years old. I cant believe it. He has been a wonderful son. I always get comments from parents how sweet he is. He will do whatever any of his friends tell him to do, which he learned at an early age having his cousin Lexi boss him around. Its not always so good though because lately he's been doing things he's not supposed to and he always sais so and so told me to do it. Braxton may not be the smartest kid on the block but he sure is funny. He is always cracking jokes. I just have to look at him and I laugh. His teacher at school tells me the same thing. Braxton has tons of friends and a few girl friends. I keep finding out all these girls he's kissed (that goes along with he'll do anything anyone tells him to do). For the most part Braxton is a great kid and I'm sad to see him grow up so fast. We have had some fun times. We love you Brax! Happy Birthday!!

Cooper




Cooper is almost 4 months old and is getting cuter everyday. He is laughing and smiling. When he wakes up at 6 o'clock in the morning he always has the biggest grin on his face and everytime I change his diaper he just laughs. He's getting a little better at not being held all day, but he still needs tons of attention, which might be hard being the 3rd child and all. For some reason I can not get enough of him, I just kiss him and love him all day long. Maybe because he's my last I just have to soak up every minute. They grow up so fast. Heres more cute pictures!!!
