Time Flies....

I suck at updating this blog but I am attempting to catch up a little. Most of the time I put picutres up on facebook because it seems to be alot easier to upload the photos. Since I havent even uploaded pictures in a few months I figured I would start here. Past few months have been busy. Aiden is doing awesome. At the moment fighing taking a nap. He pretends he doesnt know how to crawl but I know he does. He runs around like crazy in his walker. Maybe he will be walking by his first bday?? He is definitally a daddys boy and since ryan is in paris he has voiced how much he misses his dad. Thank goodness he will be back next week. Here are some random pictures for the billion that were taken over the holidays.

Oh how I love Christmas....

Quick update

Since I went back to work I have slacked on the postings so here is my attempt to try and catch up. September went by so fast and we were so busy I can barley remember what we did. October has started out the same way. We have had some weddings and birthdays to celebrate. Family came in from out of town. The weather finally started to cool off. It makes walking the dogs and Aiden a little more exciting. We can actually go on a walk during the day. Aiden loves going outside. Here are a few pics from the craziness of the past couple months.

Gary, Aiden, and Gabriella enjoying the jumper at Gary's bday party.

Going down the slide for the first time...woo hooo

South Dakota Wedding Fun!

Last weekend had my first trip away from all of my boys. Two of my good friends got married in South Dakota and it was pretty awesome. The wedding was amazing and I must say Aberdeen wasnt to shabby. If I dont move to Oregon one day South Dakota has a chance!! Congrats to the Bauders one of the greatest couples I know! I was in charge of video so I dont have as many pictures as usual.

Anne and Mikey

Steph excited to be out of the hotel
Levi always trying to get into our pictures haha!

Random Pics

Here are just a few random pictures of the past couple months. July kept us pretty busy and it went by very fast. August just started and I cant believe in a week and a half I have to go back to work. I am happy and sad all at the same time. Summer has been awesome though doing who knows what whenever I want! Aiden has had some fun too. He grabs and plays with everything. His favorite is touching everyones face and playing with his dinosaur. He pretends to roll over but isnt quite there yet. I think he is going to walk before he rolls or crawls, that kid has some strong legs. He loves to play in his baby einsten center. I can seem him learning everytime he sits in it. Today he got to play in a jumper for the first time and I have a very strong feeling that he is going to enjoy that the most.

Erin and Cody got to make a quick stop for the night to hang out and meet Aiden. It was so awesome to see them even if it was only for a night. Best part is we have got them hooked on Buzz too!!

Just a fun day hanging at the pool with some of his Favorite people.

Just another day haning with Dad. We missed him when he was in Paris and glad he got home safe and sound.

Out to dinner for My Mom and George's Birthday

Aunt Tish and Uncle Matt getting some Aiden love.

Happy Birthday!!


He is not of fan of rice cereal AT ALL. Pretty much cries the entire time he is supposed to eat it.

Yesterday(Aug 6th) in celebration of his 5 month bday he got to try carrots..first time was unsure but second time he loved them...well at least better then the cereal.

Probably wondering why I am always taking his picture hahah

Hanging with Buddy and Jake in the backyard.

Getting smart

My little brother Drives...watch out!

My brother Matt is now offically a driver. Scary I know. He was so excited that he passed(luckily) that he came over for a visit. I just hope he remembers to watch out for school zones.

BBQ fun

A few weeks ago we had a bbq for no reason other then to just hang out. There was a lot of food, some Wii action, and of course Buzz! I decided not to post any pictures of the boys because they were making fun of my hamburgers. :) Next time dont put me in charge of food prep. I am in charge of games!

Ok so I swear the burgers were alot bigger before they put them on the bbq!

Rach at them! You just had to cut the buns in half and presto good to go!

4th of July

Another fun filled 4th of July here in wonderful HOT Vegas. We actually spent most of it indoors. Thank goodness. A few years back Amber decided it would be fun to go to a Parade and well we all practically melted so now we keep the traditions alive and all just hangout inside until it is time to check out the fireworks. Ryan is in Paris, he always has to miss the 4th celebrations. Aiden and I bbqed at the house and the Coopers, Glovers(in spirit cause the kids were sick) and the soon to be Bauders came over and we enjoyed some food and good company. Since Eric's little ones were sick it was up to Gary and Mike to cook the food. Everything would of been fine and dandy but the propane tank decided to go out. That seems to be our luck lately. Luckily we were able to cook most of the food. There was a burger that probably made the moo sound but I decided I would eat it..or at least try. The kiddos played some video games and Gabriella made sure Buddy and Jake had someone to play with. Aiden seemed to be so excited that it was the 4th of July he didnt want to go to bed. I blame growing spurts and teething! He finally fell asleep at around 1030pm and managed to stay asleep despite the neighbors shooting off fireworks.

Anne and Mike hanging with their favorite little guy
Gary hanging out and still doesn't believe me that a 4 month old can teethe!



They were in charge of keeping Buddy away from food...he managed to get a hotdog or two as usual.

Wondering why the food stopped cooking?

Hotdogs made it some burgers did not

Ambers famous cupcakes

To end the evening no one can resist the game BUZZ!
