So SORRY!

Ok, so sorry about those videos...this is what happened. Since we have dial-up, I went to my mother-in-law's to work on these videos. It took me FOREVER to get them up there and listed. After I put them on there, I went to Walmart to do some shopping and then we went to visit Chris at work. In the time that it took us to do that OVER 200 people had looked at the video of mykenzie, 11 people had made comments and one person had made it their favorite. Chris and I freaked out and deleted all the videos we put on there.

We have since learned that you can make them private and still be able to put them on the blog. So keep checking and hopefully sometime soon I'll be able to get them back on there...I'll post a blog to let you know :)

Jayden Learning to Drive




This is so cute...jaxon and mykenzie never did this! He cruises all around the house with cars....mater, lightning mcqueen and doc! This is the one he found at grandma's house.

Mykenzie On the Scooter




Now that Jaxon's on the bike, Mykenzie finally gets a chance on the scooter! Can you say, BIRTHDAY PRESENT?! I've already got it picked out!

Jaxon's Latest Thing




You have no idea how hard we had to try to convince him to actually give this a try! Three days and he has it down pretty well!

Inspectors Jaxon and Mykenzie

This year's theme for summer story hour is called Solve It! It's all about mysteries and discoering things. Anyway...they give away a "prize" every week for the kids who come. Last week they gave away these mustaches...they were SO funny. The kids had a blast with them. (Of course, they didn't really last longer than the one night!) Jaxon tries them as eyebrows!
Mykenzie gets a little crazy!
I just LOVE jaxon's smile in this!
That mustache almost looks real on jax...kenzie couldn't quite get it centered
Kind of reminds me of uncle doug...something about the funny smile half hidden under the mustrache
Hmmm....looks like she's trying to make it twitch
eyebrows again!

It's Good to be Back!

I think I'm joining Lisa Michelle's group....Hi, my name is Nicole and I'm a blogger addict! Kind of kills me to not blog for so long...however...this little drought just might have to continue for a while...we've been BUSY! Chris' mom had her surgery last week and this week the kids and I are helping her out around the house in the mornings and by the time I get home in the afternoons, taking care of my house is about all I can do! We are alive and well with TONS of pictures to post...keep holdin' out for us...we'll get back to our regularly scheduled blogs soon!

Treats!!!!

This is one of Chris' favorite candies. Every now and then they have them at Walmart for cheap and I buy him a few boxes. I just polished this one off...sorry Chris. I guess I owe you one!

Mykenzie's Moods

Our little princess Kenzie is what one might call a "girlie girl". She is all about girls stuff, pink and purple ANYTHING and she is as moody as...well let's just say she can give me a run for the money! Here is a display of Mykenzie's moods this morning.....

Benjamin is HOME!!!!!

Benjamin is finally home! We are SOOOO excited to have him back. He's changed a little...filled out some and he TALKS now! His flight was supposed to come in just after 8 on friday morning. We left home around six and headed down. We got to the airport just before eight, but stupidly followed Rod (chris' dad) and missed the parking and had to circle around again. By the time we parked it was just a little after eight. We got in the airport and...his flight had left early and arrived early and we missed it! He came down the escalator and the only ones there were his mom and sarah! oh well. we went out to breakfast in kaysville and then we all headed back to Janet's house to hang out and visit. We had a very late lunch and then went home to get some sleep...here's a few pics. the RM
