2 months...



Peyton is 2 months old! She really is such a good girl! She smiles at us all the time! She is a good eater! She is sleeping better at night (only waking up once)! She really only cries when she is tired or hungry! Being the 4th child she is learning to go with the flow! She doesnt always like to be in her carseat but she is a trooper! We are constantly disrupting her sleep to go take/get someone from school or run errands. She is starting to fill out! She does like to be held but mostly just wants someone to look at her and smile!








Cornbellys...

Around the beginning of October we decided we wanted to take the boys out for a fun fall activity. We ended up at Cornbellys. Probably not the cheapest place to go but there was a ton of stuff to do! We were there for several hours and didnt even get to everything they had! It was lots of fun and I think the boys enjoyed themselves but I dont know if we will make it a yearly tradition or not!

Clay reliving the glory days!




Oh Brody!

Not sure what this was called but all 3 of the boys loved it! They probably would have played on it the entire time if we had let them!

Clay trying to convince Cohen to come jump with the older 2! Once he got in he loved it but he was a little distracted on the way in!



Poor kid face planted so many times because he was so small and other kids would just run by him and he was lose his balance! But he never cried and had so much fun! 







Oh the corn maze. We did this after we had been there a while! We thought we were going in the 'shorter' end, but somehow managed to get caught up in the long version! It was starting to get hot, people were tired and we just kept walking and walking and walking! Not the most fun we have ever had but we made it out! Cohen was a real trooper! He was so tired and just kept walking even though I know he wanted to be done!

Random October activities...


 I do not like Cohen taking my phone, but I do love finding pictures like this! Classic Brody!
 Every day Cohen asks me to take his picture by this school sign! He is becoming such a stinker when we walk to/from school. He doesnt like to just sit in the stroller and enjoy his surroundings. He is either running (out into the road even) or plopping down on the sidewalk and making me pick him up and carry him while pushing the stroller! So fun!
"Just ran several errands with 3 of the 4. Not a great idea and not sure why I always think it will be different this time! I was totally sweating by the end and there was lots of whining. We stopped at Chick-Fil-A for lunch. Peyton started crying in the drive through line and Brody was screaming that we werent going in! I pull up to the window and the girl that was working said the car in front of us paid for our meal! What?! I almost cried it was so nice and unexpected! There is still good in the world! Thank you to whoever you are!"
Before one of the BYU home football games Domo threw a party over by Thanksgiving Point. It was so much fun! There was a ton to do and Cosmo made an appearance! They had about every food truck there, inflatables, the BYU stunt team, flag football, dancing, prizes, balloon animals (weapons), face painting, just to name a few things! The boys could have lasted all night but Clay had to get down to the football game! It sure was fun!
 Cohen spent most of the time going down this slide over and over and over again!


 Watching dad play flag football!


Love finding my kids sitting in a pile of books reading!
 Watching Conference!
 First smiles!
My 3 boys!
And my girl! Love her little smirk!
I do not wear animal prints. It just isnt me! But someone gave me this dress and I love it on Peyton!
The boys have made friends in the neighborhood and walk to/from school with them! It sure is fun watching them all interact!


Jack wanted to participate in Reflections and entered in the photography category. He came up with the theme/idea for the picture and then I took the pictures of him with his brothers! These are the outtakes! Love them!
 For BYU Homecoming they do a free pancake breakfast and we drove down to BYU and met Chad and Colleen! We couldnt stay for the parade but had a good time!
Peyton had her 2 month check up and was a champ! She weighed in at 11lbs and was 21.25in long! She is starting to fill out!
Walking to/from school! It was particularly windy this day! Peyton did not like all the wind (it made it pretty cold too) and it was quite a workout pushing a double stroller up the hill against the wind!
 Walking home after dropping Brody off at school. He likes to take it slow! Unfortunately Peyton is usually screaming because she is hungry!
One Sunday after church Brodys teacher informed us that she was telling the kids that Jesus loves all the little children. Brody responded, 'I am not little, I am big so Jesus doesnt love me.' Not sure where we went wrong!!
