Seriously my baby is 10 months old already, time has really been flying by, in just two months he will be 1, that's crazy. I love him so much more everyday, he just fills me with so much joy, every time he smiles he seriously lights up the room, his smile is so big and with his two little teeth it just melts me every time!
Iam seriously slacking in the picture and updating department, this move is making me crazy. anyways here are some things about kiptin for the past month:
He has been standing all on his own and sometimes even dares to take a step or two before falling back down to the ground.
He walks all along the furniture to get where he want to go.
He is getting his 3rd tooth, top right one.
He talk and talks like we know just what he is talking about, so cute.
when he hears music he just starts bouncing and singing.
He is about 23 lbs
He is a busy body, always on the move, usually into things he shouldn't be of course!
He has been saying Mama and Dada for about a month now!
MAMA was his FIRST WORD!!! love him for that!
He loves kaylin and talks to him all the time as if they have their own little conversations going on. its really cute.
He waves HI and BYE
When he gets excited he holds up both hands and waves them up and down while yelling and laughing!
He loves...apples, all kinds of fruit, frozen yogurt pops, eggs, bread, and lots more...he is an eating machine!!
He is learning so fast and is growing way too fast.
This is crazy. We may be out of our minds or at least nick is out of his mind for wanting to move us to cedar city at this time of year???? but part of me is so excited for a new family adventure to start!
We decided to make the move to cedar since nick will be heading up a company there and I don't see why I would ever want to make him drive 2+ hours every day back and forth, that's 2 hours of him not being with his family/boys/wife..I couldn't do that to him or the boys.
I LOVE living right here in the home we bought right before we got married, its the only place we have ever owned and lived (except when we lived in Hawaii of course) but this house is our first house, our life started here, our boys were born and came home to this house, we have so many great memories here. I LOVE my neighbors, I LOVE kaylins preschool and he LOVES it so much and is learning so much that i hate the thought of him having to leave it, I love the ward we have always been in, I love living by my family, but its time for something new.
We are buying a house in cedar in the only place i love there which is making this a Whole lot easier..the one this that is making it pretty easy to move is the new SPACE and ROOM TO BREATH i will have and we will not be so crammed in a little space anymore!
This will be a big change for me, and i don't do very well with big change...i really don't like the snow and even more I HATE TO DRIVE IN IT, but nick cant be more excited to have it snowing right in his backyard, and its nice to see him excited about it. I have to look at the bigger picture through this whole thing..my family is everything to me, i will do anything for us to be together more and make more memories together and this is just one of those times..and that makes me excited!
I was not ready to let go of our first place as I'm pretty attached to it even though i do want a bigger house, i just don't want it to not be mine anymore so after i begged nick and pestered him over and over we decided to rent it for a while just in case we head back this way, i can come back to this house!
Here is to a new Family Adventure!
Happy 9 months old to our little kipper snack!
Kaylin started his 2nd year of preschool today! He was quiet in the morning but once he got home he was telling me all kinds of story's of how fun class was and all the cool friends he made! I love that he like's to learn and is very smart. He said he love's his new school much better then his last one which makes me very happy to hear, he said earlier that he cant wait for the next day of school. He came home and asked me when his show n' tell day was for him and I told him its on Friday, the next time you go to school is your show n' tell day, then he ran in his room and brought out a truck of his and said "this is my best truck ma, I'm going to show this one to all my friends on show n' tell day"....he cant wait!
I cant believe next year my baby will be in the big kid school, its so sad but so much fun to watch him learn and grow everyday!
I'm majorly behind on posting...
Last month, August 8 we celebrated our 7 year anniversary together!!!
This year nick decided to take me back to sea world where her proposed to me...I have been wanting to go back every anniversary since we got married and it was awesome and such sweet memories there!
I cant believe 7 years have gone by since I married my high school sweetheart, my best friend! Nick is so amazing to me, he really makes me a better person and is my right hand. I love him more and more. He is the BEST Daddy ever and our boys adore him!
I have learned over the years that married life is hard, fun, trying, a blessing, pure happiness, warming, comforting, and really hard work, but its all worth it, all the hard times and for sure the happy times. We have worked really hard to be where we are today and it seems life just keeps getting better and better for us. We have really learned (still learning) the past few years what life and marriage is all about one word works the best FAMILY that's all that matters, not the little things, not material things, not money, its just being together, making it through every day together and working towards the end goal of being together for eternity as a family in heaven!
I would never give one thing back or change a thing cause I have really grown from all the challenges in life and know I'm a better person for them.
We have two amazing little boys in our live who and absolutely EVERYTHING to us!
And I have a husband who is everything and more to me and life just couldn't be life without him. Happy Anniversary Honey and here is to an eternity of many more!
I love you so much!
I am amazed at how time seems to fast for me these days. I just posed that kiptin was 7 months and now another month has passed us right up.
Kiptin is such an amazing baby, he is happy and so smart. He has learned so much this past month...here is what he is doing now at 8 months...
*He loves Pears, anything pear he will eat or drink
*He loves playing with is brother and try's really hard to do everything he is doing
*He LOVES attention, all eyes on him or else!
*He started crawling EVERYWHERE he got the army crawl down about 6/7 months and the past month he has mastered the crawling stage of life.
*He sits on his knees and bounces, and laughs
*He is pulling himself up on to stuff and standing there, yes I would have to say
walking is in his really near future.
*He is for sure a binkie kid (unfortunately) he loves that thing.
*He has to have moms attention as soon as I walk through the door, if i dont stop and say hi and give him hugs and kisses he throws himself down on the floor and cry's until i get him or he crawls over to me and try's to pull himself up my leg!
*He is a mommy's boy for sure! (love him extra for that!!)
*He is very solid..I love his chubby legs and rolls he has, but they are fayding away fast now that he is on the move all the time.
*He still wakes up for one feeding sometime in the night (not good for mommy or daddy)
*He is in size 4 diapers now, kaylin only made it to size 4 so kiptin will for sure pass him up, (it does make it nice though that i only have to buy one size and they both can wear it, kaylin only wears then to bed, thank goodness!
*He is just awesome in every way!
I sure love him to death, he is such a blessing in our life's he makes us all happy!
I love you so much my little kipper snack! happy 8 months.
Since we left for our family vacation and we were in San Diego for his bday I bought him the YUMMY piece of triple chocolate baby tiger cake (ok ok maybe I enjoyed the cake a little too much probably more then he did) but i forgot a candle so we (or just me) just sang to him and then he made a wish and bit the cake...
It's stranger and stranger as every year comes when nick turn's a year older cause I still remember him at 15 years old when I met him and now 11 years later he is still my best friend and more handsome then he was when I first saw him! He is the best dad and husband anyone could ever have...he is so perfect for me and such an amazing dad...I truly know I am one LUCKY girl to have such an amazing guy in my life, no one has to tell me twice when they say that cause I already know its true. Thank you for all you do for our family Nick, as kaylin would say....I SURE LOVE YOU!
Kiptin is doing so much at 7 months...he is so much faster then his brother, but I am sure its so he can keep up with his brother! He has been scooting everywhere and is becoming very mobile now...yikes for me! I love this little boy so much, he is such a great blessing to our family and to myself...happy 7 months kiptin!!
Kaylin got really spoiled this year..he got 2 parties, one was before his actual bday with his friends and cousins at a water park and the other was on his bday with some family that couldn't be there for the other one!! They were both really fun. Daddy and I bought him a digital camera because he is taking after his mommy and liking photography..he would walk around the house with one of our really old film cameras that didn't work anymore and take pictures so we thought it would be a perfect gift and one he would really use all the time...he love his camera and takes pictures of everything with it!
Kaylin turned 4 years old today! I cant believe how the years have really flown by. It is very strange to us that we have a 4 yr old...kaylin was just so tiny when he was born, only 5 lbs and 17 inches and now he it so big! He is the a big part of our family and the first one that made us a real family, he is our world and I could never life with out this kid, he is still my little snuggler and is such a mommy's boy (ok maybe thats just when he gets hurt or when its bed time, other then that he is now taking after his daddy) We love him so much....life would never be what it is with out him in it with us! We love you so much kaylin...happy 4 birthday!!!
I got to take kaylin on a fun little date night with just him and I on July 2.
We went out to Tuacahn and watched the Musical "Tarzan"...can I just say one word...AMAZING!! We were definitely not disappointed one bit, they did such a phenomenal job on that play. We had such a great time together.
Kaylin is my soft hearted boy like his daddy so when the baby was crying kaylin got all upset and was wanting to know what was wrong with him, then the cougar got Tarzan's real mom and dad and kaylin just lost it and started to cry and was wondering what happened to the baby and if the cougar got him, I calmed him down and explained to him it was just a play and he did a little better after that, he still got upset a few more time when Tarzan's monkey mom was sad but he soon was laughing again.
From start to finish was so awesome, the monkeys looked so awesome with their costumes they were outstanding, and they came flying over your head and we got 4th row back from the stage seats so it was like we were right on stage and they were right in our face..it was so cool, and they were jumping on ropes, it was just crazy the amount of creativity that was put into that show, By FAR the best show I have been too.
At the end of the show we got go and meet the actors, kaylin really wanted to but when it was our turn to say hi and take our pictures kaylin kind of got a little scared of them being that close to us so we got our picture with the monkey's and then he wouldn't stand by Tarzan and Jane and Little Tarzan so he wanted me to just take a picture of them for his book so he could save it.
I love little date nights with kaylin, he makes a perfect date!
Love you big boy!
