I'm Back!

Well I said I would get better at this, I still have not done what I said in my last post! Right now I'm in a part of my life I think the Lord wants me to know how far I can go before breaking. It 8:30am and I have all ready had a crying moment. I am struggling with alot of stuff, from my dad and husband, to money, job, life....

My boys are doing great! Tripp is 18 months old and Brackston will be 4 in less than a month.

Tripp is a handful he is full of life. You have to keep the bathroom do shut or you'll have stuff flush down the toilet that you did not want flushed. He loves to bite, hit, pull hair. But he is to cute that you still have to love him to death. Thank you family that watches him everyday! Tripp loves animals. He is starting to like coloring, reading. He loves to follow his big brother around and do whatever he is doing. He can't wait to be outside, Yesterday he kept hitting at the door and crying to go outside and it was only 50 outside with snow still on the ground he did not care at all he just wants to be outside!.

Brackston right now is so into dinosaurs he knows all of there names and what they eat, if they are warm blooded or cold blooded. He watches a show that is called Dino Dan. It is a boy who studies dinosaurs in his back yard. I think I will put on a Dino Dan Birthday Party for him. He mostly knows all of him letter when he sees them, and sounds of them all. He loves to read! Grandma Bird took him to the library and she went upstairs to check her book back in and Brackston stayed down stairs where all of the kids books where. He had a pile like of 30 books. Grandma told him he could pick out five of them. Yes 3 out of the 5 where dinosaurs books.

Jeff and I are doing great. Right know I can say we are closes than we have been in years. We have started to read the BOM together and Pray as a family and couples. I don't want to have this stop, because I think it has helped our family a lot! I believe that is what is helping our family to be closer.

I promise I will post more updated photo's!

Last Month! (May 1st -16th)

Well were do I start, I think I will start from the latest thing and work my way back.

May 15th
Fireman's Ball. Jeff and I went to this Fireman's Ball. We had a blast. I can't wait to go to next years. It was nice to see the guys just be themselves. I would defiantly spend the money and go again next year. We danced and won some GREAT gifts. Can't wait to use them. ARS 4hours cleaning, 6 months gym pass to Gold Gym, 1 week of Yard Care, and Four Wheeler Bag, 7 days at the Sports Academy, Dinner at Fire House. Then My wonderful Husband had a hotel room for us to stay at also. My Parents had the boys. Thanks Mom and Dad for taking the Boys.

May 14th
My dad and I through on this surprise party for my mom's 50th. We had all of her friends and family meet at the Blue Bird Restaurant at 6:30 and my dad had her at the restaurant at like 6:45 and she walked in with a surprised look on her face. She could not believe that we through this all on without her knowing it. I thought that she would find out because Melissa had her invation out on her counter and my mom picked it up and Melissa tackled her for it. We had like 40 people there it was great.

May 13th
Bro's Birthday we went out to eat because if we didn't my mom would of known there was something up. Because we always go out to eat for Bro's birthday not my mom's. We had fun. So right know Bro and I are the same age for two months!

May 12th
I PASSED MY PACK TEST!!!! It consist of 3 miles in 45 mins with a 45lb pack on. I thought that I was to fat and out of shape to do it. I had no warning on it or training but I did do it. YEA! Also Tripp SLEPT through the Night!!! I gave him Cow's milk before bed I didn't feed him. So the next night I feed him and he was up 4 time crying. So I believe I am going to stop breast feeding him. SAD!! I didn't want to be done but it is making him have a belly ache.

May 9th
My mom and Dad spoke in church for Mother's Day. Lets just say that I have never heard my Dad speak in church or even bear his testimony! It was great. Pat Lewis also spoke in church he had a letter from Tim as the other speaker it was great!! Also We got to Talk to Tim on the Phone! That was Great loved every second of it. I can't believe that he only has a year left. Tim Started to Cry when Brackston got on the phone and started to talk to him. I hope that he did not get to home sick for talking to us.

May 8th
Was Health Days Breakfast. The Fire Department incharge of the Breakfast again this year. We had a good turnout. Then after the Breakfast I took off to Salt Lake with my mom for Miley's Birthday she turned 2 I can't believe where Time Fly's. Brackston and Tripp Both went with us down there. Brackston loves to play with Kayden, Daniel and Miley. Then I went back up to my in-laws because Jeff's Sister and Brother and his wife was up for Mother's day. We had alot of fun with them. We had a little cookout thing and then we played some games. It's alot of fun when they come up.

Stuff that has happened the last couple of weeks that I am not for sure on the dates.
-Tripp started to pull himself up on furniture.
-Brackston is back sleeping in his own bed. My parents go him the Dragon Blanket to go on his bed if he would sleep in his own bed. So he is sleeping in his bed now. Not on the floor in are bedroom.
-Tripp has a tooth!
-Tripp is Tongue Tide just like I was.
-Brackston Loves to feed his brother everything. He tells me that it just little bits not a lot mom. He is so funny.

That is what is happening at my house the last couple of weeks!

Brackston does not need glasses!!!

I took Brackston in to have his eyes checked on the 28th, because he has been blinking and squinting his eye when he watches TV or just sitting there. Well what we found out is that he has really bad allergies in his eyes. He showed no signs of allergies that I thought but I was wrong. We have to give him drops in his eye twice a day until allergies season is over.

Tripp started to drink cow milk on this month and he is doing great a totally different baby! Yes and he is only 6 1/2 months old. But it is all worth it. He sleeps better during the day and will play on the floor. I will just have to make sure he gets his vitamins and fruits and veg's like he is supposed to.

Also he had a huge wind storm this week where trees blew down. My grandparents house (Murray's) they had 5 HUGE pine trees that fell and make a huge mess in their yard. Jeff on his day off went up there and spent like 10 hours on cleaning it up and that is after 1 whole day of working on it. they still probably a days worth of raking up the pine needles.

Tripp is Crawling!

Tripp started to crawl on Friday I can't believe it. My Baby is not a baby anymore.
He is all over now. Brackston does not know what to think. Tripp is in all of his stuff. He keeps telling him no no Tripp that is mine this is yours.

Brackston for my dads birthday took him to the new dragon movie and he loved it. It was a 3D movie and he wants it on DVD. But he tells us that grandma and grandpa will but the movie for him.

My boys are just getting to big!

Brackston Turned Three! I can't believe my big boy turned three on the 5th.

The 3rd he woke up and said mom I changed I asked him what he ment about changing he said again mom I change and his voice got a little stronger. I started to laugh and again I said brackston I don't understand then he held up three fingures and said MOM I changed. I told him that his birthday was not for a couple more days and he said no mom I changed last night!

The night of his birthday he were getting ready to go to Mcdonald and play in the play area with some family and Friends. (Payden, Abby, Boston, Carter of course Grandma's and Grandpa's and Uncle Bro and Aunt Me Me was there.) I was wrapping some of his birthday gifts and he seen the wrapped presents and said Mom I need to go to the gardage I said what for his reply back was I need to get the Christmas Tree.

Tripp is doing great! He is setting up all by himself and rolling and scootin backward to get to places. I took him to his six month check up he weighted 16 1/2lbs and was 26 1/2 inches long. Still everyone that sees him says that he looks a lot like Timmy. He loves to play with his big brother, Brackston will take his trucks and drive them on Tripp's body/head and he will just laugh and laugh. When Brackston leaves the room Tripp will start to cry.
Tripp has learned that if he puts out his hands someone will pick him up. That is the new things in the last week. Tripp still is not sleeping through the night I am so tried of getting up every 2 to 3 hours two be the human binkie. I love him to death but I do wish he would sleep.

Jeff and I are same old same old. We are hoping to go down to eagle mountain to see Alison and Deans baby this weekend. Both of are kids are finally feeling good and don't have a snotty noise and a cough. So we are going to try to make it down there.
