Our Little Peanut

We found out on Christmas that we are expecting baby #3! We are so excited to add to our family. I had an ultrasound earlier this week and everything looks great. Little Peanut is right on track! The official due date is 9-1-11 although my doctor says he would prefer to induce me a week early unless baby decides to come before then. He's afraid if I go into labor I might not make it to the hospital in time :) Brock can't wait and he is convinced he's getting a little sister this time. I'll be finding out as soon as possible and I'll keep everyone posted!!

Clark Planetarium

Brock has been really interested in space lately so we decided to take the boys to the Clark Planetarium. It was really cool and they loved it! There were lots of things to look at and some fun hands-on exhibits too. It was a really good Saturday with the family.

This is Brock with an astronaut from Utah. He thought that was pretty cool.

Moon-walkers! This shows what the surface of the moon is like.

Brock "floating" on the moon!

Cute little Martians! This is what the surface of Mars is like. Apparently even Martians like the Jazz :)

Brock wanted his picture by Jupiter. He says it's his favorite planet because it has 63 moons! His knowledge of space and planets is pretty amazing. He has been teaching me lots of new things!

Christmas 2010

Sawyer got a new ride for Christmas! He figured it out right away and loves it! He had a hard time getting all of his presents open because he was having too much fun to stop playing!

Brock loved opening all the presents! He was getting frustrated with Sawyer being so slow. At least that made it last longer!

Brock got the Lotso bear that he wanted from Toy Story 3, a Leapster with some games, a D Will jersey, Toy Story playset, Legos, Monster truck Mater, a game, color wonder and a movie. He also got some gift cards from grandparents so he could pick out whatever he wanted and some spelling blocks and coins.

Sawyer got a Buzz Lightyear 4 wheeler, Jazz jersey, Toy Story Duplos, some cars and tucks, an Aquadoodle, Moon dough, color wonder and a view master. He also got gift cards from grandparents so he could pick whatever he wanted and a wooden ball/hammer toy and some coins.

It was so fun to watch the boys open their presents! They are at the perfect ages for Christmas. They loved everything!! We had a great Christmas, hope you did too!

Sawyer is 2!!!

My sweet little Sawyer turned 2 on December 19th. I can't believe it!! He is such a fun little boy. It seems like he has grown up a lot in the last few months. He is learning so much! He loves being the center of attention and is developing quite a personality! It seems like he is constantly making us laugh. I am proud to say that he inherited my sarcasm gene :) Ian isn't so sure that's a good thing! We just love having him as part of our family.

This is him modeling the hat that Uncle Shane got him! He had such a great time opening presents and loved everything he got!

Since Dustin, Shane and Sawyer all have birthdays so close together we did a combined party this year. I made all the boys a balloon cake. Sawyer LOVES balloons so that was the theme.

He actually did pretty well with the cake and didn't make a huge mess.
Happy Birthday Sawyer, we love you so much!!

Happy Halloween!!

Brock the Rockstar Vampire and Sawyer the Pirate

They had lots of fun dressing up and getting candy! We went trick-or-treating on Friday at Ian's office and at the grandparents houses Saturday. The boys looked so cute in their costumes!

This is me doing my best Madonna impression! I love piecing everything together to make a fun costume. It's rare for us to dress up for Halloween so it was really fun!

Here is Ian as Bret Michaels, my Rock of Love! He wore this to work on Friday. He got lots of compliments on it. He made a great Bret!

Back to Preschool!

All ready for school. He is so handsome and looks so grown up!

In front of his preschool. He did so good and is looking forward to a fun year!

Brock started his 2nd and final year of preschool. He is going to the same school as last year and he is so excited about it! He loves his teachers. There are more kids in his class this year and according to him some cute girls :) I know everyone says this but I can't believe how quick my little man is growing up! I am so proud of him, he is such a great kid!

Fiesta Days 2010

We went to the car show at the city park. Brock and Sawyer loved the little Mater!

Carnival! Austin and Brock on the pirate ship!

Brock on the Indiana Jones ride. You have to go through an obstacle course and when you get to the top there is a slide to ride back down. Looked like a lot of work to me but he liked it!

Makenna, Sawyer, Brock & Austin riding the car. They were so cute!

Brock & Sawyer on the motorcycles. They loved the carnival! Sawyer is a little adrenaline junky! He loved all the rides and didn't want to get off. He had a huge grin on his face the entire time.

Emily & Sawyer watching the parade. Such a fun tradition!

Austin, Brock & Sawyer watching the parade and of course, waiting for candy!

I love celebrating Pioneer Day in Spanish Fork! I have memories of the celebrations when I was a kid and I love that I am making those memories with my own kids now. It is something I look forward to every year. We went to the rodeo too but I didn't get pictures of that. Brock was so excited to see the real cowboys and clowns. Sawyer had fun too, even though he spent most of the time out of his seat! It was great to have lots of family time. If only we could get summer to slow down...
