Family outing

We were on a drive the other night and stopped to let the girls see some horses. They were the friendliest horses and they were all flocking around us to get some attention. They were so pretty!

My what pretty teeth you have! We had a friendly Llama come see us too. Llama's are funny looking to say the least!

The beautiful colors of Fall


We went out the other night and looked at the Fall leaves. The leaves are slowly turning here and it is so pretty. As we were out driving we happened to see quite a few deer. When I say quite a few, I mean like 30 of them. They were so calm and just stood there as we took pictures. They never once tried to run away. They were gorgeous! We were probably only a few feet away from the deer as we were taking pictures of them. It was so neat to be so close to them, I have never been that close to one before and I can't believe how pretty they are. Dad you missed out, you would have loved it!

Sunday best


The kids looked so cute for church in their green outfits, so I had to take a picture. The picture didn't turn out so good but they still looked cute.

I got you dad!


Tayson grabs everything and I guess Taylor's nose was big enough for Tayson to grab. He had a good grip on him and wouldn't let go. As soon as you get close to his face to talk, smile, or kiss him he grabs your face.

You get what you wish for!!!!!

I wanted a chubby little baby and this is exactly what I got! I love chubby babies but I didn't realize that chubby babies can brake your bank account. I swear I am always buying new clothes for Tayson to wear. I boxed up his 3-6 month summer clothes about a week ago, but should have done it way before that. I started stocking up winter clothes for him and thought I was gonna be safe to buy 6-9 month outfits.....boy was I wrong! I waited to long to put him in his 6-9 month outfits and so now they fit him almost way to perfect. Shoot! His 3-6 month clothes were way snug, but I wanted to hold off till the colder weather came for his 6-9 month clothes. Luckily the weather here is a little chilly right now so the winter clothes work for now, but I am sure I will be buying bigger clothes soon. I had him weighed today and he weighed 17 lbs. 4 oz. and he is only 3/2 months old. My poor back is never gonna be the same after this little man. Carrying him in the carseat is a killer. Oh, and his carseat is already almost to small for him. I struggle when I buckle him up. I have extended the straps as far as they can go and I still have a heck of a time getting him in. I am sure you are all sick of hearing me talk about how huge he is, but this is the first time I have had a chubby baby so it surprises me to see how big he is. The girls were so little and they were able to wear their clothes for a way long time. So this is all new to me. Here are a few of my favorite outfits.

Random video's of Tayson

Tayson is so smiley and happy and LOVES attention! Here are a few video's of him. He is starting to laugh but it's still so small and new to him, but it makes my day to hear his little giggle. Make sure to pause the music so you can hear him.

1st trip to the Dentist


I know I am constantly putting pictures on my blog, but how can you resist when your kids are so cute! So anywho, the girls had their 1st Dentist appointment and it went to sooooo good. They LOVED it! I think they just liked the one on one attention. I took them to a Dentist office designed just for kids. It was great! They had video games, coloring, computer time, movies, toys, etc..... I didn't mind the wait for once because the kids were entertained and were having a great time.

The girls got bracelets, sunglasses, balls, toothbrushes and lots lots more.

Brynlee did awesome, but after awhile she wanted to come and sit by Kamryn and join in on the fun with her.

I think the girls were loving the bubblegum flavored toothpaste and the raspberry flavored flouride.

Kamryn said her favorite part of the trip was when they squirted water in her mouth and sucked it back out. She asked the dental assistant like 3 times to do it again. What a goof!


The girls were entered into a drawing for a prize and got an award for not having any cavities. Yay!

I caught Kamryn practicing to floss her teeth after I buckled her up and she did a great job, but of course as soon as I started driving the car she pulled all of the floss out of the container and had it everywhere and tied in knots.

1 day vs. 3 months



I wanted to get a picture of Tayson in his carseat every month but I have forgotten to do it, so I decided that I will try to get a picture every 3 months. He is almost to big for the carseat. It is so hard to buckle him up and it is SOOOOO HEAVY. I just about tip over when I carry the carseat, and that is no joke. If I lose my balance, I tip over! Putting him into the car is a workout itself. I literally have to throw him in there. My arms are pretty buff from this kid!

High maintenance!


Brynlee is all girl! She loves sunglasses, purses, dresses and her all time favorite girly thing is SHOES! That girl is gonna cost us some money when she is a teenager.

Girl time

My favorite time to hold and kiss my girls is right after their nap time. They are so relaxed and happy and love to cuddle with mommy. It's pretty much the only time of the day that Brynlee will let me snuggle with her. Kamryn will snuggle anytime of the day. So my favorite time of the day is right after nap time. Taylor came home the other day and caught all of us snuggling and watching the Disney movie Tarzan.

How is this possible????

So I was on the computer today and I smelled something really foul, so I turned my head to see what it was.........and this is what I saw!!!!! AAaaahhhhhhh!!!!!!! Just when I thought it was ok to relax and do a little blog stalking (ha, ha), I found myself cleaning up poop. Needless to say the clothes got washed immediately and Brynlee was put in the shower. Brynlee is the worst when it comes to crapping her pants. She poops on average at least 3 times a day. If it is less than that we are SHOCKED! She is a pooping machine. Between all 3 of these kids I am all diapered OUT!!!!!

OUT with the OLD, IN with the NEW!!!!!!!







I have to give Taylor a hard time about this. I have been trying to get him to buy new shoes for months now. We went shopping in St. George, found a few pairs he liked, but went home with nothing. We have gone shopping twice here in Spokane, and still he came home with nothing. He keeps telling me that he doesn't need new shoes and that he can wear these ones for another year. Ha, I think not! These are way passed a year old already. Don't ya think it's time for some new ones? Me too!!! They are dirty, scuffed, they have holes in them, and the soles are totally worn out. You make me laugh babe, but I am sorry I think I win on this one. YOU NEED NEW SHOES! I could use a little help here people, leave us a comment and tell Taylor that it is time to give in and buy new shoes. I know they can be a little spendy and we have 3 kids that need stuff too, but sometimes you just have to surrender to your wife and give in.

3 months


Look at those big beautiful blue eyes and long eyelashes! Tayson is now 3 months and changing everyday. I can't believe it has been 3 months. It feels like yesterday that I was in the hospital waiting for my beautiful little boy to arrive. And now I am wishing that I was still pregnant and waiting for him to come here. It has gone way to fast and my heart is breaking cause he is getting so big so fast. We sure love this little man and he is such a GOOD baby! He smiles all the time and every once in awhile he lets out a big laugh (you have to work hard for that one though). Taylor told me the other day that he rolled over and a couple of days before that I caught him rolling over. I don't know if it is on accident or if he is trying. I guess we are gonna have to watch him and see. Love ya baby boy!

Fraggle rock

Does anyone remember the t.v. show Fraggle Rock? Well I totally do, and I used to watch it back in the day. Brynlee's hair today reminded me of that show. The good ol' days!

Who needs a hat when you have a bowl?


This morning I got the girls cereal for breakfast, got them in their chairs and then headed for the couch so I could eat my cereal. When I finished my cereal I got up to get the girls cleaned up and as I walked around the corner I found Brynlee with the cereal bowl on her head. She poured the cereal on the tray and put the bowl on her head as a hat. She was ticked when I took it off to clean her up!

Liberty Lake


We took the girls to Liberty Lake the other day. We actually went out to go on a hike and look at fall leaves (the leaves are already changing here), but found ourselves at the lake instead. We didn't dress up in our beach attire because we were thinking we were gonna be in the mountains. but the girls didn't mind and they got in the water with their clothes on. They had a blast and the weather was so nice.


Little beach feet!


What a cheese ball!
