Baby Quincy

Our sweet sister has the sweetest personality. She is one loved little gal. She is so content all the time. Brayden sure has beat the poor girl up. He has bit her, pulled her hair, and hit her in the head with a frying pan. He has never been able to open doors and the other day while she was napping he figured out how to get in her room. I was blow drying my hair so I couldn't hear her crying. When I turned off the dryer I heard her screaming her head off. I ran in her room to find Brayden in her crib. He had her picked up with her belly over the railing trying to get her out of the crib. Poor little thing. I am just glad I got there in time before he actually pushed her out of the crib. I don't think he was doing anything intentional to hurt her though. I think he was just trying to play. It freaked me out! It makes me feel like the worst mom ever when stuff like that happens. I feel like I am not protecting her. He is so fast! Colby and Carter are very good about watching him so he doesn't hurt her. They are my little helpers.
Love that smile and those chubby cheeks!


Crazy hair! It is always sticking straight up.

Her brothers just adore her. Even though Brayden beats her up from time to time, he still is very cute with her. He is always kissing and loving on her. He just doesn't know how to be soft. The twins love her so much! Especially Colby! Most of the time he would rather sit and play with Quincy then go play with toys. She has really gotten fun lately. She talks and coos  so much! She is by far the best baby I have had. She started sleeping through the night about 2 months. She is so stinking sweet. Love our girl!!!!

Merry Christmas... (just a little late)

Yes I am finally blogging about Christmas. Better late then never right?! Santa came Christmas Eve morning because he knew we wanted to go see the family Christmas Eve and Christmas morning. It was so nice of him to make a special trip just for us. ;) Uncle Sam and Aunt "Meanta" and Grandma Gail came to watch the boys open up their presents. It was fun to have them here. It took us until about 2 in the morning to put it all together but it was well worth it. The kids were so thankful for everything they got. They were so cute!

Lucky boys!

Sweet Colby
We just had to get Brayden a kitchen.
Cute baby girl with her new toy.
Brayden and and his cute cousin Carson in their new Elmo jammies.
After we opened presents we headed to my parent's house and had fondue and watched a Christmas movie. The next morning we went to Gail's house to see everyone. We love Christmas time and I am sad the holidays are already over. That went by way too fast!

Carter's stuffed animals

Every night when I put the kids to bed Carter has like 10 stuffed animals he puts all around him. They are always in the exact same order. He ALWAYS knows when there is one missing and he has to go search for it!
Not the best picture but this is him arranging them.
This would be the finished project every night.

This is a random picture of him watching a show with all his stuffed animals. I think this was right before he took a little nap. He looks very tired! Kids are so funny. It's so fun to watch their unique personalities!!


Catching up!


 We recently moved into a cabin! Well it was in November so not too recent. I have not been the best blogger lately. It doesn't help that I lost a whole sim card full of pictures. BOO!!!! Brayden's birthday was on there along with much more! Oh well! The kids love the new place. It has a big play room in the basement that they spend all day in! It also heats with a wood burning stove which is so fun to them. Here is some fun pictures I have taken as of recently of Mr. Brayden Buggy. My big two year old boy!
He LOVES this baby. Drags it all over! It has actually saved baby Quincy because now he has his own baby to take care of.
                                                               




He loves to cook. All day every day he pulls out my pots and pans and pretends to cook. Usually he is "making pizza." This would be his lunch mixed with all the apples out of the fruit bowl. Soooo busy!




Always being a goof ball!


Words Brayden says/ funny things he does.
-If ever he is mad at anyone he says, "Daddy did that." Or Mommy or whoever made him mad.
-He calls both Colby and Carter "Catew." They are always the same person. He can't tell them apart. Sometimes he will get mad at one then, not remembering which one made him mad, he will reach over and hit the other boy. :)
-He says the letter "F" for "S." Ex. Sire for fire, sood for food. Etc.
Anytime he says thank you he follows with your welcome. "Dank you, yo wacome."
-Any time I sit down he says "I sit by you."
-He calls Quincy "baby durl."
-He loves Colby and Carter. He follows them everywhere and copies everything they do.
-At night we say "don't let the bed bugs bite." Now not only does he say that at night, but any time either Andy or I leave some where he says, "Geeka bite you."
-Love you, "yuv you."
-Andy's mom's name is Gail. He refuses to call her Grandma. He will only call her "Dale."
-He still is obsessed with his "dee dee" and his papa!


Love our big two year old! I don't want him to get any bigger! He melts my heart every day!

Heritage Center

We went to the Heritage Center in Logan with my sister and her family and my parents. We went last year with my parents and we had to go back! We for sure want to make this a tradition every year. It is a blast. The kids loved it!
Cute Cousins!

Baby Quincy going along for the ride.

We got to look at anilmals.

Go on a train ride

There was a hay jump the kids loved.

Riding the horse carriage.


Our favorite part was this really fast slippery slide!


Mandy and I even went down. Boy are we brave! ;) We also got very lost in a corn maze. We were too inpatient to figure out how to get out. We finally made our way right back out the in! What a fun night. I have the best family ever!!!

Pictures

We just got pictures of the kids taken and it was a NIGHTMARE! Brayden cried everytime we would try to take them and Quincy was very fussy as well. We actually had to go back and re-do hers because none of them turned out. Colby and Carter have the cutest smiles and they kept doing these silly fake smiles! Oh the memories! ha ha Suprisingly we got some good pictures!
She doesn't smile yet so I don't know how they captured this one! So sweet!
Love my angel!

I love how Brayden's pictures turned out. We started throwing a football with him and thats when he started laughing and not crying!
Carter

Colby

Cutest twin boys ever!!

We had the cutest black dress with a pink flower on it. We found pink ties to match and none of those pictures turned out. This was the best we got!

Andy put some of the pictures together on the computer so it looked like they were together. I thought he did pretty good!

"Mess"

Brayden is my little stinker lately! He is a tornado! He gets into EVERYTHING!! Especially when I am nursing the baby. Good thing he's cute! He also hates messes. If something is a mess he can't stand it. He looks at it and says "mess." ha ha  The second he makes a mess he wants to clean it up. Here he is on my kitchen table. He threw the apples and oranges out of my fruit bowl and dumped a whole box of cheerios out! Gotta love almost two year olds! :)
Of course he has to drive a tractor through it!
Funny boy!!
