Our cowgirls!

During the South Jordan town days they had a kids rodeo with muttin busting, and stick pony racing. So we got up early and signed them up that morning! Aspen was super excited about riding a sheep and Dallas even told her that they could go to Reams and pick out a new pair of boots before the big event! She looked so cute all decked out in her Cowgirls best!







It took forever for her time to come, and I think that watching everyone before kinda freaked her out a little. So when her time came she wasn't so sure she still wanted to do it. But after some convincing and bribing she got on and road with dads help.






Irelynn did the stick pony racing! She road that purple pony like a champ and took 1st in her age group! It was so funny watching all the little ones. She got to keep the purple pony and also got a silver dollar for winning!Way to go Irelynn!

SUmMeR!!!!

We are so glad that summer has finally made it to our state!! We have already been so busy with all the fun outdoor things that summer has to offer. We've been to the pool like 5 times, park like 5 times, had numerous BBQs with family and friends, volleyball games, rodeos, hikes, fishing, and camping trips and late night summer walks and bike rides! Oh the joys of being together with the family and going and doing things together! I really don't care if I'm prego forever, I don't want this warm weather to ever go away!

These girls are little fishes!



They could be at the pool at day!



Then again so could I!



This girl has mastered her bike with OUT training wheels!




Yesterday we went on a short hike up to this cool waterfall!

Happy 3rd Birthday Little Miss Irelynn!!!


Last week our current baby in the family turned 3! I guess since she looks like a 3 year old and acts like a 3 year old it's time for her to be 3!! But the thought of it makes me sad:( the last year went by way to fast! I can't believe that she is going to be starting pre school in August.

Irelynn has always kept us on our toes. There is always a funny story for me to tell daddy when he gets home from work about what funny thing Irelynn has done or said that day...ie: "Mom why don't black people have skin?" or " Are you going to poop the baby out tomorrow mom?" or "when I get big I'm not going to buy milk at the store...I'm going to get it from my boobs cause they are going to huge when I'm a mom!" Yes she is quite the little thinker, and she has an answer for everything! Recently she has told me that she wants to be a teacher when she grows up and that she wants to go to collage far far away:( This for some reason made me cry when she told me this (couldn't be the pregnancy hormones!) but the thought of them growing up and moving away made me super sad. I guess thats why everyone says you better enjoy them while their young, cause it goes by fast...I find this statement being more and more true as I look back and wonder where the last couple of years have gone...? I need to stop and take it all in a little more. ...for instants. Yesterday I just sat outside the girls door and just listen to their conversations about lava girls with super powers....and then when I couldn 't sleep last night I went in their rooms and layed by them taking in every little bit of them I could, their smell, their soft little sunkissed skin, the way they both push their bottom lip out when they sleep and just watching them breath in and out....pretty soon they will be to old for me to do these things and I'll just be that wierd mom.


This year Irelynn decided that she wanted a lady bug birthday party! It turned out super cute and lucky the weather that day was perfect! We set up the bounce and had a little kiddie pool and slip n slide.






The big girl even got a new BIKE for her birthday!



Irelynn is quite the little daddys girl. She is super sweet but also has a trouble maker side!

(just like daddy)

They share a special bond and he always seems to have the trick to make things all better for her. I love to sit back and watch them interact with each other. It just makes me beam, I'm so proud of my family. I love you all so much!

The Spring catch up post!!!

So I've been super bad at posting...Maybe it was beacause I felt like SH** the first 13 weeks of thsi pregnancy?!?! Thats right for those of you that didn't know(which I'm sure you all know) We are expecting our 3rd baby GIRL!!! So far the little kicking bean's name is Hudsyn ___ Frame. We can't really think of a middle name yet. This pregnancy has been my least favorite so far due to the fact that I fetl like crap for the first part and then after that was over I got super bad head aches and I've been super tired with NO ENERGY, but that might be do to that fact that the sun doesn't want to show but more then once a week.....This has beent the longest winter EVER!!!

I think I'm about 19 weeks here! I'm huge...I guess thats what you get with baby #3


Easter came and went. It was filled with the same family get togethers and egg hunts. The girls were more excited for the Easter Bunny then Santa this year. Waking up at 6, 7, and then us finally letting them go up stairs at 7:30. I love the holidays more every year as the girls get older and they get more and more into it.













Our little Miss Irelynn through us for quite the loop May 1st. The day started off with a nice Bees game. Filled with Cotton Candy, Shaved Ice, Churro, and Hot Dogs. So when we are on our way home from the game it didn't surprise me then Irelynn told us her belly hurt. So Dallas layed on the couch with her and rubbed her belly. Then Irelynn looked up at him and said " Daddy My belly hurts cause I ate a magnet in the car." Um Of coarse Irelynn ate a magnet the girl eats rock and dirt!!! Shortly after that she started throwing up and Dallas and I decided to take her to the Dr. to make sure it wasn't stuck....We went to Riverton InstaCare and sure enough it was stuck in her esophagus so they sent us to Primary Childrens. After we get to up there ,they inform us that it is not a magnet and that it is a battery and they needed to get it out ASAP! I was super freaked out about all the what ifs, but they were able to get it with a scope and it only did minimal damage to her esophagus. After a 24 hour stay in the hospital and only 7 days of her not eating. I'm happy to say we made it through our first catastrophe!




This is that Battery....Look how it is already black and corroded.



Our Big Girl Aspen Kate just finished her first year of Preschool! I don't know who was more sad me or her. She was grown up so much in the last year and has become quite the miss smarty pants. I love going over what she's learned and practice new things with her. We are so Proud of her. During the school year she grew 2 inches and gained 4 pounds!! She can't wait to start again nest fall in the 4 year old class and be in the same class as her "BOY FRIEND AIDEN".








Well hopefully I will be better posting now. Heres to good weather and a great summer!!!

The Holidays 2010 part 1

Well the hollidays came and went so freaking fast this year. The girls really got into the holidays this year. Although Santa was still not a hit in person, they sure loved the gifts he brought them on Christmas! Children bring such a magical spirit to the holidays. It is so fun watching light up at the thought of Christmas....This year we enjoyed going and seeing the Zoo lights, the Temple lights, the lights at Thanksgiving point, along with numerous family Chirstmas parties! No wonder it went be so fast. We were so busy we didn't get a chance to realize it was here before it was gone.









We also went to the lighting of the tree in South Jordan. It was a fun time they had live Christmas music, a santa, a carriage ride, and ice skating.







Temple Lights with the family!







Aspen also had a Christmas Performance with her pre school. She had a special roll as a Pretty Doll. She did Awesome, She knew all the songs, hand motions, and had a smile on her face for the whole time. She made us very proud!



Like the big BOW?!?!
