When it gets quiet...go check!!


The other morning I was in doing laundry, when all the sudden I realized the boys were being extra quiet! That usually when I know that they are into something! I walked into the kitchen quietly and saw this..............So of course I grabbed my camera! They were both in their cowboy boots and into the Cheetos! Cheetos for breakfast?...the breakfast of champions!?!



I love the mess Cheetos make! FuN!

Then they saw the camera and had to throw a few poses in there!! Got to love boys!!!

Austyn has been my quiet one!! He has just recently began talking in sentences, but only when he has something important to say or if he really wants something. I was in my room this morning and he came in and said,plain as day, "My want some fruit naks..pa pa pa pa pleeeeeease!!" I was laughing SO hard!! He has never said pa pa pa pleeeease...EVER. That is something that his brother always says when he really wants something bad, so needless to say, he got such a reaction out of me that it is now his favorite thing to say!! It is so dang cute!!

Dino land



Living here in beautiful dinosaur land had been quite a change for me!! Even though I grew up here, the Wasatch front seemed like home to me! We have now been here for 2 1/2 years and I am FiNaLlY starting to settle in! I forgot how much there really was to do here. We have lakes, mountains and dinosaurs right in our back yard!! The small town living is finally starting to make sense to me again! Even though Vernal isn't such a "small town" these days. I am actually glad that my boys will have a similar childhood as I did. We spent every waking moment of summer at Flaming Gorge on the boat! And if we weren't there, we were on the mountain camping. They will even go to the same elementary school that I did!! Its pretty nostalgic!!
Dave recently had a few consecutive days off so we decided to take the boys to the dinosaur museum. They love it there, even though they have been there alot, they love it just as much as the first time! I guess its just a boy thing!!

Austyn never looks at the camera!! arg!!

What can I say.....Ayden loves getting pictures taken of him!!

As you can see...the boys were THRILLED to get more pictures taken!!

Best buds...for now!!



I just needed to share some precious moments with all of you!! Ayden and Austyn have been best little buddies lately, which could change tomorrow, but for now I am quite enjoying their new found love for one another! Don't get me wrong, they still have their moments! I have been hoping that they would be best little buddies ever since Austyn was born...they are only 17 months apart! Ayden has stepped up to the plate as a big brother, he shows Austyn the ropes. He even talks him into doing stuff that he knows will get himself in trouble. The other day I walked into the kitchen and Ayden was hoisting Austyn on to the counter, directing him where I keep the marshmallows! I just sat quietly and watched! When I finally said "do you think that you should be doing that young man!" Ayden replied...."Austyn did it!" That is his usual reply now.....to EVERYTHING!! Austyn did it mom!! He is only 3. Isn't that a little early for blame shifting and lying to start!?? Anyway, I am just enjoying them being close, hope it lasts forever!

SUPER-MAN

I had to post these funny pictures of my two supermen!! Dave was throwing them in the air the other night, so I grabbed the camera. If you look close they both have very frightened looks on their face. But they always say "do it again daddy". They can't decide if its fun or terrifying! None the less, they are always begging for more! Ayden then wanted a cape like superman, so we quickly fashioned him one out of a hand towel and hair clippy!

I now know, if it doesn't work out for them to be doctors, or lawyers....they can always save the universe!!!!!!

Camping Trip

I had to post some pictures of our last camping trip. I think it just might be the last one of the year. It always makes me sad when summer is over, but I know that means fall is on the way. Fall is my favorite season. I love the cooler weather, the leaves changing, and all the holidays to follow!


Ayden and his bow. He loves it! And he is actually a pretty good shot considering he is only 3. It does concern me a bit, it shoots SO far. He is really good at only pointing at the target and not his little brother!!


Check out Austyns teeth in this picture! He had to have caps on all his front teeth because they had no enamel on them. He looked so funny until we got used to the whiter, bigger teeth. He will eventually grow into them....I hope!!!
