Silly Girls



These 2 girls really are my life.  I love watching them learn and grow and play together.  Yes Taylee will be the death of me, but she is so dang cute its hard not to love the girl.  I love how much they both love Zander (sometimes too much)  McKell is an amazing little Mom, she can help with anything I ask her.  Thankful she was born first haha

3 months and a new cousin

 The cutest baby in the world (yes I am bias) has turned 3 months old already.  He is such a good baby and puts up with a lot.  He has 2 older sisters and lots of cousins that love to haul him around.  Unless he is tired he puts up with it pretty well.
Smiles now
Still isn't sleeping all through the night usually 6 hours at a time
Still will only nap on his stomach and sleep on back
Getting better at keeping his binki in
Jeremy's sister Sabrina had her baby Girl September 4th!  Its amazing how big your 3 month old seems after holding a newborn.  Yes she was only 7 pounds at birth but wow Zander is HUGE!  His 3 sisters and me all had babies this year its a repeat of 2010 just in a different order and everyone is having a boy this year except little Megan will be the only girl.  She will be the princess with all these boy cousins

Pancakes


One day I told McKell to cook the pancakes cause I needed to go shower haha I didn't really think she would, but she did and did awesome!!  She is growing up fast

Peach Days 10K











Oh my goodness this race kicked my BUTT!!!  I know its a hard race to begin with but holy smokes, it was HARD.  I ran most the way going back and forth with a lady pushing her stroller so I knew I HAD to beat her.  I run with a stroller most days and know how hard it is so I wasn't going to let her beat me.  And thank Heavens she didn't. :)  I ran it in 48:09 and took 3rd in my age group.  My sisters came in about 30 seconds behind me, and Vanessa also took 3rd in her age group.  3 weeks to Half Marathon Yikes

Preschool



McKell is in preschool this year with a lady in our ward who teaches it.  She was so excited to start.  Her first day was a success, she met a new friend named Ruby and can't wait to go back each day.

I had a hard time deciding if I was going to put her in preschool since it costs so much.  I thought about it for months and decided I would just teach her and Taylee this year.  Then about 2 weeks before it was going to start I really started thinking about it.  Well as you can tell I decided it was something McKell really needed.  Something just for her that she can go and enjoy.  I am happy with our decision so far and think it will be great for some her time.

Wedding



We had the opportunity to be a part of this beautiful couples special day.  The sealing room was overflowing with people it was awesome.  Brandi looked beautiful!  I am a bit sad Ryan is taking her to Idaho, but hopefully they will be back!
