Get outta here!!

Rebecca was screaming at Dylan because he was trying to sneak in on her picture time!! I don't think she is going to let her big brothers bully her...she is going to be feisty like her mommy. ;-)

Make a Smilebox scrapbook

Above is a little scrapbook of Rebecca from 3 to 6 months old.

Sledding in 2010!!

We have had several snow storms come through Farmington throughout the week....

Tuesday morning we woke to a couple inches of snow on the ground and Ryan's school got canceled. By 10am that morning the snow was melted and the roads were almost dry. Wednesday morning we woke up to about the same amount of snow and once again Ryan's school was canceled. The snow was melted by about noon that day. Thursday we woke up to about 3 or 4 inches of snow and school was canceled. (I'm sure you are seeing the trend this week has had.)

It snowed all day long Thursday, giving us about 6 to 8 inches by late afternoon. It was great because we were able to go play in it after the boys woke up from their naps. We even built a snowman!! He is wearing Jason's hard hat so we called him "Snowman Dad". The boys even gave "Snowman Dad" a hug because they miss their daddy!


By Thursday night it was pretty apparent that school would be canceled because the worst of all the storms was supposed to hit over night. Needless to say school was canceled but we had an even better day!! First we slept in, until 8am, then we cleaned up around the house and got ready to go sledding in Aztec at my parents house. Once at my parent's we ate lunch and got all bundled up to sled. Dylan only lasted about 15 minutes before he was too wet and cold to enjoy it, the snow was up to his knees so he kept falling which didn't help matters any. Ryan would have stayed out there all afternoon and evening if we had let him. He is a crazy man on the sled...going backwards, running and jumping to slide on it, going on his stomach and back. Rebecca was in the house napping during all the fun, but I'm hoping next year she'll get a chance to play in the snow.




We had a WONDERFUL day playing in the snow!!

~Going Away Party~

Since we are moving in a couple weeks I decided to throw a party for the kids to see all their MOMS Club friends before we moved. It worked out great because Monday was a holiday so all the children were out of school for the day. It was nothing fancy just games and a movie for the kids while the moms chit chatted in the kitchen/dining room. It was great to spend the day with so many of our MC friends!! We sure will miss all of the friends we have made here!!!!

(1st Pic)Here are the boys with some of their friends watching a movie. (2nd Pic)Rebecca is being held by Lessie and her daughter, Summer. (3rd Pic)These are just a few of the many friends I have made through MOMS Club!

My Silly Dilly!

After I got the kids out of the bath I laid Rebecca down on the rug in her room to play while I helped the boys get dressed. After I left the room she began to fuss so I finished getting Dylan ready then sent him in to give her "A" toy to play with. Once Ryan was dressed I came in Becca's room to check on them, this is what I found....
There were actually a few more toys on her when I found them but by the time I got the camera out she had managed to wiggle them off of herself.

Of course then Ryan wanted a turn to lay by Becca to have his picture taken as well!

Rebecca: 6 Months Old!!

I am just in shock that Rebecca is already 6 months old! The nine months while I was pregnant went by so fast (most of time I'd forget I was even pregnant) and I had really hoped that things would slow down once she was born so we could really enjoy her first year however that is not the case so far. Not that we don't enjoy everyday, but just that she seems to be growing so quickly!!

She has reached several milestones over the last couple months including; sitting up on her own for short periods, babbling on and on, blowing bubbles, eating baby cereals and foods (fruits and veggies), plus drinking from a cup!! I haven't taken her for a 6 month check up yet but I will very soon so I'll post her stats once I have them!! She is very much a mama's girl, plus she also loves her Yaya(that is my mom). She already has serious separation anxiety if I am not in her sight...I have to trick her by playing peek-a-boo to walk away or leave the room and if I happen to walk past her once I have left the room then all heck breaks loose...she just screams until I come really close to her or hold her.

The boys absolutely LOVE her, taking any chance they can to hold her, play with her, talk or sing to her! They are both wonderful big brothers to Rebecca! She was a very happy baby today so I took some 6 months pictures of her. The one above is my favorite because she was laughing with her tongue out of her mouth and the one below has her beautiful smile showing as well as her bright blue eyes shining!

Ryan wanted me to let everyone know he has decided we should change her name to "Lady Bug Becca"...he said it is much more fitting since I love to dress her in lady bugs and her room is full of them!!
