Kylees 3!!

man i'm a slacker. Kylee had her 3rd Birthday nearly a month ago, December 5th. She loved her pink cake. We just had cake and ice cream at gramma Bells with all the cousins. She is getting so big and heres the proof. These are her 3 year old pictures. She absolutely loved getting them taken. I guess she has had lots of practice. She kept saying, I want to do another one! in between poses.

She is such a Sweetheart!

Thanksgiving Vacation

It sure has been a while. We had a blast for Thanksgiving. Our Holiday started on the 17th. We left for Arizona, Monday morning bright and early. It was a very long trip, 12 1/2 hours to be exact. The kids slept for a while and did waaaayyyyyyy better than I thought they would be. Any way we arrived to Mesa at 6:30 and man that last half an hour is torture. We were so happy to get there. The next day we just rested and went to the park. After that I don't think we had another dull day. Our days were full of shopping at the huge malls and everywhere else. Heath could only handle a half day so most days he came with until after lunch and then went home (so the kids could nap) and dad would pick us up after work. I got most of my Christmas shopping done which was great cause there are very minimal places to shop in good old Vernal.

Friday Heath took me to San Diego for our anniversary without the kids. It was really hard for me to leave Kortnee she is only 7 months old and I have never given her a bottle so I didn't know if she would take one. I was a wreck until the first time she ate after we left. I took a pump which was awful and only made me miss Kortnee more. Anyway we went to Sea Port Village when we arrived. Later that night we went to the beautiful San Diego, Temple.



Oh my heck it is so amazing, that is definitely the prettiest temple I have ever seen. I'm a little sad that I wasn't sealed there, but we did get to do sealings.


The next day we went to Sea World, which was so fun we loved the dolphins and Shamu. The rides were really fun too.


The dolphins were my favorite. I got to feed them and pet them. It was so exciting!

We went back the next day and then went the Beach after. We gathered sea shells from the beach It is so beautiful, I am excited to take my kids there I know they would have so much fun. Anyway then we drove home for 6 hours, I was antsy the whole way, I couldn't wait to see my babies.
The next day we didn't waste any time, we were right back to the stores, Me and mom are troopers. Tuesday mom was sick with the flu thing, I guess Kaleb had it on Sunday while I was gone. Well, I knew someone had to have it on Thanksgiving and it wasn't going to be me. The rest of the crew got there Wednesday night so we went out to dinner. Of course, the next day being Thanksgiving I got to wake up with, Yes, the flu thing! Lucky me, I didn't eat any thing until Friday night. I had some soup, Oh well, I lost like 8 or 9 pounds.



That night we celebrated Kylees B-day and Kaleb was so excited to sing the "Happy to" song.



Then headed out to the Indoor Speedway (Go Karts). It was way fun. I think Heath came in second place.



When we got home me and Mere got the camera out and that made everyone act crazy.



We had to teach mom how to take skinny pictures. You can't really teach Ben anything! haha

Anniversary

We got married in the Mt. Timpanogas Temple on the beautiful morning of November 12, 2004. Little did I know what I was getting myself into! haha! I'm totally just kidding. I love my husband with my whole heart. I couldn't ask for anyone better. He has given me the life I always wanted, we have 3 beautiful children and a good relationship with each other. One thing that we do that keeps 'US' happy is every week we go on a date without the kids, thanks to my mother-in-law who is always willing to watch the them. Thanks Susan. It is so nice to go out without the crying and craziness. I enjoy the time that I get to spend alone with Heath.


What a handsome man!

What a beautiful day, I can't believe it has been 4 years already.

Last night I was looking at these pictures and I told Heath " I can definitely see why you married me. haha" JK but man, do I wish I looked like that again. And I thought I was fat then.
Good times!

Great Memories!


I love this picture because Heath is looking at me like he just adores me and loves me so much. I can honestly say he still treats me like a Queen, the same as when we met, he always tries to do things to make me happy. I have had a few trials in the past few years and Heath has always been there to help me get threw them. I am so lucky and blessed to have a great husband like him.

Why Do I Even Try?

I am wondering why I clean my house. I clean it and then 2 or maybe 3 seconds later its a disaster area again, its piontless I swear. Same with laundry, it never ends, I mean NEVER! I can get it all done (so i think) and the next day, no not even the next day that night, there is another huge pile. What do you do? There is always another mess to clean, food to cook, kids to bath, clothes to wash or fold, fights to stop, or a doctor to see, or bigger clothes to buy, or something. Its never ending, I swear I am going crazy! I need help!! AAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!

Meet the Flinstones


Heath and I dressed up as Betty and Barney Rubble. Kylee and Kortnee were Pebbles, and Kaleb was Bam Bam, which is perfect cause he loves to go around and hit things. Our freinds were Fred and Wilma Flinstone and their boys were the Dinosaurs. We went to the Halloween party at the church. We won the costume contest they had! We had so much fun!

This is the whole clan! I made all the costumes except the Dinosaurs and Wilma. It was a lot of work but it was definitely worth it. Don't we look cute?!

Me as Betty and my friend Rachel as Wilma

Halloween!



We made Halloween cookies and man were they yummy!

Poor Kylee we went to Trick-or-Treat at the library, she was so excited. So we get there and she started to run and tripped. That ruined the rest of the day. She had blood running down her chin. Her tooth cut her lip on the inside, and she also scraped her lip, face and her hands. I felt so bad for her.

Losing Baby Weight..... Finally!

I am proud to say I have joined Weight Watchers. I am excited cause I have only been doing it for 2 weeks and I have already lost over 5 lbs. I think this is such a good thing for me because I never realized how much I really eat. You think you eat pretty healthy but then you look at what portion sizes should be, and how many points little things are. Then you realize how bad stuff is for you. I shouldn't say bad, but a lot of points. I have been exercising in the mornings as well and I can tell a huge difference from that too. I cant wait to be able to look good in clothes again and feel as good about myself as I did when I got married. I would definitely recommend weight watchers to any one, even if you just need to lose 2o pounds. I think its awesome! I will keep you updated.

OUCH!!

So, my kids had been sick for almost a month, I finally decided to take Kaleb in cause his eyes were all goobery. When I got to the doctor I had the feeling to get Kortnee seen too, so I had them both checked. I'm sure glad I listened to that Motherly Instinct because Kortnee had an infection in her left ear. Kalebs eyes were both infected and both ears too! I couldn't believe it. No wonder they weren't sleeping very well. Anyway, you know how it goes, they are both on antibiotics for 10 days. Can't wait till they are all better. Poor babies.

Our Little Angel (one of them of course)

This is Kortnee's 3 mo. picture. Its a little late considering she is almost 6 mo. but I just had to show her off cause she is so cute. She is getting so big and she is so happy.

Carving Halloween Pumpkins

For F.H.E. we went to Rachel and TJ's house to carve pumpkins. We each made a pumpkin dessert. I made a Pumpkin Roll and oh my heck it was delicious. Thanks to Rachel A. for the yummy recipe.


We stripped the kids down to their nothin's so they could get down and dirty. We had so much fun!!
Kylee helped me carve a ghost but went we were putting the pumpkins in car it fell out and broke.
These are the finished product. This is definitely fun only once a year.

How old are you?

Kaleb may not talk but he surely knows what you are talking about. Since his first birthday, when you ask him how old he is he will show you on his hand. He knows a few words in sign language, but he is very hard to communicate with. He likes to scream and cry for everything. If he is in trouble and he knows it he likes to give an "I'm innocent," look. Its not fair cause he is so cute and then I question myself if he really does understand me, even though I'm sure he does. He's frustrating sometimes but he is a crack up. He is always making us laugh... and testing our patience.

Sisters





So I decided to try and do curlers in my girls hair. It took a lot of patience from Kylee (and me) to get them in but it was all worth it in the end. Look at how cute she looks! It was a little too curly sue so we had to put it up. haha! Kylee wanted Kortnee to match so we did a few in her hair too.

It didn't work as well as Kylees but its fun to encourage the big sis wanting the little sis to be like here because I know that won't be the case for very long.

Ellie Came to Play!






Ellie came to our house to play! We had so much fun. Usually Me and Ang stay up all night talking but this time we disciplined ourselves so we actually got some sleep. We got some cute girls in the bath. What a fun couple of days. We need to definitely do it again.

Kortnee Sue


Our sweet sweet baby! Kortnee is getting so big she is always so happy. She hardly ever cries, she only fusses. She is really easy going and loves kisses. She talks more than her brother, Kaleb. We love to tickle her to hear her laugh. She is so much fun, I don't know what we would do with out her.

Chicken Little?







Kalebs Double!

What do you think?

I'm a Princess


Kylee has this new thing she does. She comes up to me and says in small humble voice, "Mom, I'm a Princess," like she is stating a fact. I just have to laugh and say, "Yes, Kylee, you ARE a princess!"


Here's the proof. She loves to play dress up and have her hair done all cute and her fingernails and toenails painted. But of course they have to be her favorite color, pink. Oh, and don't forget the make up!

Our Family

Well, I have no idea what I'm doing but here goes nothing. Heath and I have been married for 4 years, on Nov. 12. Man the time has flown by. It seems we have been married for 8 years considering how much we have grown. We have 3 babies, they're not triplets, but I say babies because they are all under 3 years of age. We have Kylee who will be 3 in Dec, Kaleb will be 2 in Feb. and then our newest addition Kortnee, is 5 mo. Don't worry we didn't plan it so if you think I'm crazy I didn't chose this, well plan it I should say. It is pretty crazy that I can juggle it all and the most crazy thing about it is that I'm only 22. I got married right out of high school and didn't waste any time. Heath is working and mentally preparing himself to get back to school. It's really hard to balance school, work and spend enough time with the kids as well as the wife. haha.
