Living the Crazy Life!!

I keep telling myself that I am going to be better at this blogging thing now that I am done with school but that has yet to be the case. Sorry!! Since my last blog we have gone on vacation to Mexico, Utah, and moved into a new home! Life has been very busy with moving and selling and chasing two kids around. Well sort of two. Mya is on her way to crawling and Kaden is potty training. It has been very eventful around here to say the least. Mya watches every movement of her brother. She is growing up way too fast. I wish she would just be my snuggle bug but she has other things in mind. She is now five months and Kaden is almost three. Here are some pictures of some of the latest happenings. Since it has been almost two months since the last post I have lots of pictures!! I will be posting our Utah trip in the next day or so.

Our new home!! We feel so blessed to find a home that better fits our needs with our growing family and Brent working from home. We have room to grow and are excited to make new memories with our family here.



Mya and I cooling off in the pool.

The view from our condo into the Sea of Cortez.



The two trouble makers Kaden and Kameron. They are best buddies/cousins.



Deep Sea fishing at four months old!!



Brent catching a Dorado or Mahi Mahi depending on where you are from. Weighing in at 51 pounds and 58 inches long. He was so excited, it was fun to watch him real it in.





Me catching a rooster fish. These are the neatest fish and fun to catch. These guys you let go back into the sea. They are not good for eatin just fun to catch.



Kaden fishing with daddy, he had a hard time sitting still but got excited when daddy caught the big one.





Me, Jim, and Brent caught these Jack Caravell fish they were in a school and we each reeled one in they were strong little buggers we released these ones too.




Brent had his birthday in Mexico and we had a fish fry and ate Key Lime Pie his favorite. Happy Birthday honey we love you so much. You are a great husband, and father to our beautiful children.




The last day we spent in Cabo on a Catamaran and went snorkeling and kayaking it was a lot of fun!

Slacker Mom!!











Yeah I know I have been a slacker Mom with the blog lately. We have had a lot going on. I am finally finished with school and can be a full time Mommy. I am so excited to spend more quality time with everyone in my family. Here are some pictures Brent and I took of the kids. It was nap time for Kaden so we will do his again but they turned out pretty cute of Mya. This is my first attempt in photography....hopefully they will get better!

Our Latest Adventures

The weather has been great down here in Phoenix and we have been enjoying the fresh air now that Mya is a little older. We were little hermits for about four weeks then I couldn't take it any longer! Kaden loves the park especially the slides!
Kaden got to take his Momma Ju and Papa Lee to his favorite park a couple of weeks ago.
Mya's Special Day. She was blessed on Sunday March 1, 2009, also her Papa Lee's Birthday. Sorry the picture is a little blurry.

Our precious little Mya in her cute blessing dress. This dress was hand made by Brents Grammy we feel very special to have such a special gift from someone who means a lot to our family.



Daddy's Little Girl! I love this picture it is so precious.

Kaden's little sister...he loves to hold her...but he says "mommy I want to hold him!" He is such a good big brother and always makes sure she is okay and if she starts to cry and I don't attend to her within his time limit he lets me know. I love being a Mom of two it is so much fun and challenging at once.





Last week Kaden, Mya, and I got to go on a boat ride with my Grandma and Grandpa and my Mom and Jim and Brady it was a lot of fun! Kaden enjoyed Papa Jim's binoculars!


Spring fever! The weather has been very nice and we bought a kite for Kaden and he loves to fly it.


Buzz Lightyear to the rescue!

The Latest Happenings...Kieth....Kaden...Mya

Brent's brother Kieth arrived home from his mission in Germany/Austria. Way to go Kieth we are so proud of you!
Brent's family except for the in-laws. I had to stay home with Mya she was only a week old.
Mya after a warm bath. She loves the water!

Four Generations. My Grandma Anna, Me, My Mom and Baby Mya!


My Grandma Anna and Mark came to visit us and while they were here we got them to play the Wii. Maro Kart and Bowling it was a lot of fun!

Daddy's Little Girl.... She loves to snuggle up to him at night.


Showing off the tongue. Kinda cute!


Funny Face!


Happy Valentines Day! Love Kaden. He has been such a good little boy and adjusting well to all the new changes in his little world. He loves his baby sister Mya!



This sleeping position is just like her daddy's it cracks me up when I find her or Kaden doing something just like one of us.... usually it is Brent.

Kaden had this great idea to stack the sprite! I have to admit it was pretty creative I was just keeping my fingers crossed that one didn't fall and explode everywhere. He loves to stack things.

Baby Mya has arrived!

Baby Mya made her entrance into the world January 25, 2009. She weighed in at 7 pounds 5 ounces, 20 1/4 inches long. We had quite the delivery experience. We were lucky to make it to the hospital...she came out ten minutes after we arrived. No epidural nothing I wasn't even in a delivery room yet and out she came with a real loud scream!! I scarred a few new moms who were across the way being that I was just behind a curtain. I have to admit though if I could have all my babies this way I would it is far better than 12 hours of labor like I had with Kaden.
We are all doing well and are adjusting to having 2 and one that is Capital TWO!!

Mya's going home outfit isn't she cute!!

Kaden's first experience holding baby Mya....not too sure!



Proud Daddy of his new baby girl!



Oh don't I just look cute!! Not really but this was the best one.


All bundled up waiting to get released from the hospital.


Our adorable little girl with her first bow!



Our prescious children. We feel so blessed to have them in our lives.



The full belly of milk look!


Adorable Baby Mya at one week old.

The Holidays

The holidays have come and gone and we had a great time with our family. This was the first Christmas we spent at home and we had a great time. My whole family was here and we had a great time spending time with one another. We are getting ready for our next adventure of having a new addition to our home. The decorations are out and the baby stuff is in now all we need is the baby!! Kaden and his cousin Kameron made little Christmas decorations with the help of their Grandma and Uncle Brady. They are a reindeer and a Santa. They were full of sugar this day if you cant tell.
My handsome boys all dressed up for Church.

Partners in crime these two were quite the pair during the holidays. They had a lot of fun playing together. As you can see Kaden is into his orange. The kid eats these like they are candy!! It is pretty funny except for the diapers that follow!!



Every Christmas Eve my family makes gingerbread houses we had fun this year because my Mom had glue guns instead of frosting to construct the house with so we could decorate a lot more without it tumbling down. We went with the retro 70's house!!


Santa also came to visit us on Christmas Eve!! Kaden didn't want anything to do with him that is why it is a picture of Brent instead!



The mischievous duo in their matching Christmas PJ's.



Christmas morning setting up the car city.



Another one of Santa's gifts!!


Kaden on his new scooter. He has no fear he will purposely make it crash!




My belly makes a good pillow these days. Kaden has been quite the little snuggle bug!!
