Yummy! My first popsicle!

I found mini Popsicle for Tanner. His Sissy gets to eat one almost everyday and he gets so made. I found little mini ones. He was unsure at first but loved them. Of course I couldn't get the sour look on his face because he shad to smile for the camera.

First Day of Preschool

WOW! She looks excited- She really was just think she was sick of the pictures. She loves Ms. Amee her teacher and wants to go to school everyday. She is one of Ms. Amee's crazy kids. Last week she colored a friends name tag black. Oops!

Always Smiles

Our Tan Man loves to smile for the camera. He sees it and gets a big smile on his face. What a looker! Funny how he can look so sweet and the next second be so mad-

Abbi's Second New Bike!!!

Well, Daddy's bike wasn't good enough for Princess Abbi. She wanted a princess bike for her birthday so Uncle Jeff and Aunt Jesse got her one. She loves it. We have to ride it everyday!!!

New Chairs

Thanks Nana!
Nana, in North Carolyna thought these shairs were so cool she had them shipped to the kids. Abbi loves them. I'm sure Tanner will soon. They are chairs that turn into backpacks. Abbi made it a chair, then a backpack a million times!

Peek-a-Boo!

The other day I was getting ready and set Tanner down. He decided to play peek-a-boo with the shower curtain. He thought it was so funny!

What a handsome boy!!! Look at that smile-

Abbi's New Ride

Abbi has the best daddy in the world! We found this bike and Justin decided he wanted to take it apart and fix it up for her.I totally made fun of him the whole time. When he gave it to her I knew I had to shut up. He was so happy and so was she. She loves it and says thank you everyday.

Sedona Trip

As you can see Tanner hated the water. Don't blame him, it was freezing! Crazy Abbi and Dad loved it-
Abbi's attempt to be like daddy and jump off the rocks! I'm in trouble...
Crazy Justin jumping off the cliff. Wonder if he will ever grow up??? I'm sure never- That's why I love him!
Daddy and Abbi playing in the water.
Tanner and I just had fun in the dirt and mud. As long as he didn't touch the water he was happy.
Abbi digging in the mud. She loves to get dirty!

Family Pictures


So, we had our family pics done by a friend that does our babysitting. She is only 15 and what an amazing job she did! Here are some of my favorites.

Zoo Time!

We went to the zoo this week. It was a little hot and Abbi loves to get dirty. She was the first one in! I think this was her favorite part of the day.
OPPS! Her feet touched the cold water and it had been a while since she went potty, so... why not pee in the creek??? Well, that's exactly what she did. I was going to change her and then I just decided to let her get dirty and then change her. I don't think she liked standing in her pants when they got all wet.

Justin didn't work that day so Abbi and I got to go together, just me and her. It was so fun! I loved spending time with her.



We are so crazy. My friends, Jennifer and Bobbi decided to ride together to the zoo. We fit 4 car seats and three adults in a 3rd row seat Tahoe, with a double stroller. It took us about 40 minutes to get everything and everyone in the the car but we finally made it work! I am so blessed that I have such great friends and that Abbi will have amazing friends to grow up with!


Abbi sportin her new hat and shades. Yeh, this lasted about 2 minutes and they were both off before we even made it to see the first animal. Oh well, lots of sunblock!





Fun at Grandma's

We went up to Prescott for the day on Monday. The weather was wonderful so we ending up hangin outside for a while. Abbi stays very busy. This is her laying in the sun.
Grandma has a big swing that hangs from a tree. They both love it. Abbi had a pudding, can you tell?

This is Tanner hangin out. He was laughing and laughing.


We laid a big quilt out for Tanner and Abbi to sit on. Abbi was helping Tanner read this book. What a good sister-



Daddy Time

Grandma Jan and Aunt Heather came over for dinner the other night. Justin's mom brought these big containers that had a bunch of things from when Justin was little. He found his helmet from when he was little. Abbi put it on and they were bumping heads. Abbi thought it was so fun.
Oh please don't let my sweet little angle be a crazy football player! She does have the size and is tough enough and we wouldn't mind her hitting boys...


Spring Training Game

We took the kids to a spring training game a couple weeks ago. Abbi loved it! Tanner, not so much. Abbi got ice cream and blew bubbles. The weather was perfect! We tried to go out to lunch at Chilies with the kids before the game. We haven't gone out for a sit down meal since Tanner was a couple weeks old. Well, we ended up having to get our food to go. Tanner was screaming and Abbi was climbing all over the booth. What a lovley time. Makes me think of that song, "You're going to miss those days." I'm sure when we look back in a year we will laugh. Guess we won't be going out to dinner or lunch as a family for a LONG time.
As you can tell by Tanner's face, he was very unsure of the grass. He was so tired he just wanted to sleep.

Handsome Boy!

Tanner in his Brancos hat. He looks like a little boy in it!

Ice Cream Shakes! YUM, YUM!

Papa and Abbi had yummy shakes together after dinner!



Tanner's New Bath Seat!

Tanner is sitting up now so he wants to see the world! I put him in this seat in the tub and he was amazed. His sister loves to dump water all over his head. He actually laughs! If he only knew what's in store.



Abbi Flying a Kite

Abbi got to fly a kite with herr Papa the day before he left for Florida. SHe kept sayig, "Mom, that is AMAZING!" I love it when they discover new things. The smallest things excite them!
Papa helped us get it in the air and then she got to fly it all by herself! Thanks Papa!
