Christmas

Jared woke up before any of us. He ended up going into the living room and played with his new bike. After playing awhile he came in to wake us up. He told us that Santa brought him a new bike and same with Conner. I was really excited so I woke Conner up. We opened stockings first. Then we opened all the presents. The boys did really good waiting turns and helping each other. I forgot to take a picture of them in front of all their toys. Jared got some thundercats toys his favorite is the sword. He also got transformers and a scooter. Conner gave him Ironman toys. Conner got a ball pit, dump truck, pirate sword, and some other stuff I can't think of. Jared gave him Cars 2 cars.

After opening presents we went to church. It was nice to remember the true meaning of Christmas. Conner wasn't very good so Bryce had to take him out. All Jared wanted to do is talk about his toys he got. After church Bryce made us a nice breakfast.

Christmas Eve

Great Grandpa bought Jared and Conner a shot gun. They were in heaven with them.


Conner loves Brylee. He likes to follow her around and say "Baby" I am really glad that Justin and Amber are putting Brylee at the same day care.

We went to my parents for a little while. We opened a present and read the story of Jesus while Jared showed us on the play mobile toy. My mom made soup so we ate a little but not much since we were eating at Cathy's.

We went to Cathy's to eat dinner. The kids had fun playing there. I forgot to take pictures.
We came home and read the story again. Then opened one present. Jared helped make cookies for Santa. They also fed the reindeer.
Jared and Conner got matching PJ's . I wanted them to match in the morning.
Jared made reindeer food at Trudee's house he was so excited to feed them.

Conner didn't really know what was going on.
Jared was sad because he wanted to eat a cookie and I wouldn't let him!!!

Bryce's Work Christmas Party

Conner didn't want to look at me when I wanted to take his picture, he wanted the candy. I don't blame him.
Jared told Santa that he wanted a real sword.

Bryce's FOP had Santa and a movie. Conner has never been to the movie. He watched about 45 minutes then I ended up leaving with him. They played "Aurthur's Christmas". Jared really enjoyed going.

Bryce had to get the candy for Santa to hand out. He went to Sam's club he got king size candy bars and suckers. He picked out $300 worth of candy. They ended up handing out hand fulls to all the people in the movie theater.

Conner's Birthday

Jared was scared to go down the big slide. He made it to the top then wouldn't go down. I ended up climbing up there to help him. He went again and wouldn't go so I climb up again and just pushed him down. After that he would go by himself.



Conner was scared the first hour. He wouldn't even sit on my lap in the bounce house. He would sit on the little table. Then a lady came in to decorate a Christmas tree he was over there trying to take things off. Jenny helped chase him while I talked to Ashley's aunts I haven't seen in a long time.
I took the day off. I invited Jenny, Cade, and Payton to go to Lowe's extreme sports. When we got there a bus pulled up with tons of high school kids. We decided to go to Jumping Jacks in Springville. We were the only ones there for the first hour. Then Jared's best friend from day care showed up with his aunts. They had so much fun together.

After jumping jacks we went to lunch with Bryce. Conner ate 7 chicken nuggets and some fries. I think he was pretty hungry. Bryce ended up taking the rest of the day off with us.



Conner makes the funnest faces sometimes.
Justin had a dutch oven dinner he had to go help out with. So he brought me Brylee to watch. She was good at first then she wanted to be held the whole time. I needed to finish the cake so she had to cry a little. Conner woke up from his nap saw Brylee he came and laid by her.

Jared wrapped Conner's present all by himself which was shocking. He was so excited to pick it out and give it to him.
My parents gave Conner this little wagon that Conner and Payton loved getting rides in.


Jared and Cade helped open gifts.


Monkey cake!!!
At the party we ordered pizza and bread sticks. I ordered way to much of course. I think Conner had a great birthday. I am glad to have him in our lives. He brings joy to our family. It wouldn't be complete without him.

Conner is starting to talk more which is nice. He loves to play cars with Jared or anything Jared is doing he wants to be doing. Conner loves his big brother.

Christmas Tree

I went black Friday shopping with my sister-in-law Sarah. I finished getting all Conner's toys. I didn't get home til 3 am started at 8 pm. For those that know me I go to bed around 9. The next morning Bryce let me sleep in til 9. We did a few things around the house then set the tree up.

This year we decided not to put ornaments on the Christmas tree. Conner is into everything. We had our tree up one day and he has already broke it.

Thanksgiving!!!

Brylee is 6 months and Bryce has never held her. He really doesn't like to hold other peoples babies he is afraid of dropping them or something. So Aubree just handed him her so he could hold her.


He loves sticking out his tongue for some reason.
We had to change his shirt because he played in the toilet!!! I wish he would stop doing that but he loves water. He loves throwing things in the toilet too.
Jared and Cade dancing on the table. Jared has some moves I am not sure where he learned them at.


Bryce loves Thanksgiving he calls it "Turkey Day" on our way to Cathy's house we were talking about if he was on patrol what we would do. I said I would have to cook Thanksgiving dinner. I laughed and said then I would cook a ham instead of a turkey. He thinks that is wrong that I wouldn't make a turkey on Thanksgiving.
