Patrick wanted to post

Patrick asked me if he could post something on my blog just to let everyone know his secret and he thought that he would tell you with a picture.



If you have any questions let me know cause I think this should explain it.

A good way to tire out children

Yesterday, Stephanie and Caleb came over to invite us to play at the park. We ended up having a great time and since Patrick hasnt been sleeping well lately, it was a great way getting out a lot of energy and taking some great picutres. I got a great work out as well chasing the boys around trying to take pictures.

Rockin' out the holiday

So I finally bit the bullet and got a tattoo. I couldnt think of anything I wanted so I ended up going the with rocker look and got a black guitar. I wanted it simple and rough so here you go.

Just kidding, Jesus and I were bored so I was painting my nails and he decided to paint fake tattoos on my feet. The crazy thing about that color of paint is that its actually red in the bottle but it comes out black. I love it. Any way so when you've been married for 2 and a half years and you finally get the baby to sleep, and you get a second alone, this is what we do. Sad huh? Well other than that I am trying to enjoy this holiday as much as possible. So I made pumpkin Pancakes and hot apple cider. It really sounded good and I felt like little miss homemaker. It also gave me a chance to use our griddle. I love it.

New videos of the Boy!

I hope you enjoy these, I think they're pretty cute.

Music lovers, come forth!

Ok, so as I have been driving my car and listening to the radio or watching tv comercials, I have realized that I am a little behind in the music world. I have just recently discovered Colbie Caillat and Sara Bareilles who's music I just love and I am wondering what else I have been missing. So I am asking all of you to give me some input on new music that I am missing. Do you know of any great new artists? Any music that you just cant do without? I like all kinds of music except rap. So if you would like to open my eyes to anything new please give me input. I love you all and trust your opinions!!!!!! I cant wait to hear!

Holiday Craziness!!!!!

Well its that time again. Time to shop like maniacs. Time to push through the crowds to find that perfect gift, but you know what? Im almost done!!! Maybe this year I can actually get all of my shopping out of the way and enjoy the real reason for the season. I always put my shopping last and I cant really enjoy the the holiday season because I keep thinking did I buy everything for everyone I was shopping for? Did I get the things that they want? Well I am not going to do that this year. I am going to finish shopping this week, get everything wrapped and enjoy the rest of the month for what it is. I am so excited that we have Patrick this Christmas and that he is old enough to enjoy it. Last year he was only 3 months old and he didnt really do much. We plan on taking him caroling and to the lights at calm so this should be a good holiday season.

Ok, Its Time!!

Yes, we did have Thanksgiving this year, I have just been lazy and havent posted anything yet. But we had a great Thanksgiving. My Mom decided that she wanted to fly her parents here from Provo so we got to have our Grandparents here. Ben and Janae also were able to come so we had the whole family here for a big Thanksgiving dinner. It turned out great, even though mom did threaten to order all the food from Marie Calendars, but we all pitched in and and it was spectacular. Here are some great photos from our wonderful week.

Here are some pictures we took while Papa was washing his new bike he won on Ebay
The boys loved helping

I actually dont know who took this picture. We were laughing at funny videos.

We got Patrick the cutest santa hat

Patrick was getting some love from Caleb as they were riding on Grandpas walker

Isn't my Grandpa the coolest. He has Parkinsons and still knows how to rock it!

Stinkin Cute!

Ok so I got this picture from Sarfer and I just had to show everyone just how precious it is. This is when Sar came in 3 days after Patrick was born. Enjoy!!!!!

For the Heck!

Ok, so this blog is just for the heck of it. Nothing is really going on and there are no big events happening now. I just have some great pictures of Patrick that you should see. When you have a kid as cute as ours, you cant help but constantly take pictures. You have to admit it that these pictures are priceless. And you know, I am done buying Patrick expensive presents because he always plays with things we already have like tupperware lids and cardboard boxes. Well here are few pictures of Patrick playing with a box, trying to eat with a spoon (yuck), and wearing my hat. So enjoy.

Happy Halloween!!

So for Halloween, once again, I put it off until last minute. I really wanted Patrick to be a pirate this year, so I was going to make his costume. I ended up just buying black sweat pants and white socks and a white long sleeve onesie which was the easy part. Then I went (Tuesday night blahh) and bought fabric for a vest and sash. So Wednesday afternoon I sat and made a vest and sash for his awesome costume. It wasnt very good but I am very proud since I am not a seamstress. I sewed the vest together and everything. So here are the great pictures from Halloween!This is from when I had him try it on to see if it fit. I love his smile!

Here he is with all of his makeup on. Dad went a little crazy with it.


Here he is running to Papa. He loves his Papa.

For Sar

More fun times

Well, not many things have happened since my last posts but I have some great pictures and videos. The pictures are from Wednesdays Hockey game. Thanks to the Nichols we got in free and we all had a great time. The videos are of Caleb and Patrick dancing to Stephanie's ring tone. They did it for a really long time. The one of Patrick is the funky smile that he does whenever he sees a camera.
