First dance performance 2011

Brylee had her first dance performance of the year at the new Madison High School the other night. She did great! We are so proud of our little dancer. I'm so glad I'm having another girl so I can do this all again:) Its so fun. Good Job Brylee!

Some Progress!

We are FINALLY trying to finish our basement. YAHOO! We have filled all the nail holes in the bedrooms and are ready to prime and paint and carpet. This bedroom will be the toy room for the kids. It will be so nice to move some things downstairs and make the upstairs more livable:)

Christmas 2010

They each got what they REALLY wanted this year!
I am slowly catching up on my blogging. I wanted to just post these pics from Christmas, and this is about all i took. I don't know what is wrong with me lately but I do not take very many pics like i used to.

These two were so fun for Christmas this year. They each were old enough to enjoy it and understand a little more about it. I just remember being SO tired on Christmas eve and yet I couldn't sleep good because I was so nervous Brylee would be up in the middle of the night from excitement and then make us all get up. And I was really excited to see the kids reactions this year! It was so much fun and they both got pretty spoiled. Payson has just wanted a Buzz lightyear and Thomas the train set. He got both and lots of other fun things. Brylee wanted her American girl doll and Art stuff....oh and a wallflower from Bath and Body works for her room;) She told me that if she had her own air freshener she would keep her room clean...YEA RIGHT! hahaha. It does smell pretty good in there now, so thanks Santa for that great stocking stuffer;) Broc's parents came to our house this year which was so great because we didn't have to haul all our stuff home after opening gifts. It was nice to just be home. It was a pretty low key day, with an amazing meal from Broc's mom and just being with family. Love the Holidays!

Salon Christmas Par-Tay!

I work with some fun girls. I am lucky that I get to go to work and know that I get to hang out with friends all day! It makes for some fun times. We went to Craigos again this year and did our little gift exchange. I got the new Victoria Secret perfume (Bombshell) which I love! Thanks to Audra who had my name:) There is never a dull moment with this group. I am thankful for my job. Not only do I have awesome co-workers but I have some AMAZING clients. It's going to be hard to even take a month off when I have the baby...I will miss seeing everyone but the break will be so nice and much needed!

Christmas Pics

These are the Christmas pics my friend took for our cards this year. I love them. If you didn't get a card I am sorry, I tried to send them to everyone but I ran out and tried to get them to the family and friends we never see. I will post about Christmas soon! I know I am so behind. This pregnancy is getting the best of me;) I am almost 31 weeks though now...YAY!

Happy New Year!!!

Counting down to Christmas!

Christmas is only about 2 1/2 weeks away. The kids are so excited and they are loving having the tree up and the house outside all lit up too! I love the spirit that comes with Christmas time. I always love this time of year! Baking, decorating and just being with family....oh and shopping! We are so excited to see our kids on Christmas this year, they are at fun little ages. It's kind of bittersweet to me that this is the last Christmas we will have just having these two....but it's so exciting to know we will have one more special spirit with us next Christmas:) I am counting down the days to Christmas also because that just brings me closer to my due date. I am already getting miserable and I can't imagine what I will feel like in just under 3 months!

November was SO busy. I did more hair in that month than any other month this year I think. I was at work 5 days a week some weeks and being on my feet that much was tough. We had a wonderful Thanksgiving with both sides of the family and we got to meet our new nephew, Logan. My brother Brian is a new proud dad of the cutest little boy!

It also got very very cold in November so I had to get Sophie a sweater to go outside because she would go out and just shiver and would NOT go potty all day. She held it forever because she didn't want to go out. We have her trained really well in the snow now though....at first she hated it! Now she runs out and pottys and runs right back in because she is so cold. The sweater helped her though and she looks so cute in it;) It's so bad how much I baby this dog but we love her and she is so great with our kids.

October Happenings...

October went by so fast. We had a busy month between school, spud harvest, parties and me and Broc busy with work. I am so thankful that Broc has been busy, such a blessing. Here are just some pics I never got around to posting. Brylee had a fieldtrip to the straw maze with her class, which me and Payson were able to attend to help out. It was so fun but showed me that I could NEVER be a teacher like my mom is;) It requires more patience then I am capable of. I will just stick to doing hair:) We also went to our friends annual Halloween Party. Broc is a "Doctor" (funniest shirt ever if you can see what it says) and I am just a Devil. Being prego on Halloween makes it a little harder to dress up. All in all I am just glad that October is over and we are now halfway through November. That just means this baby is that much closer to being here! We are doing alot of work to get ready for her to come and we can't wait to meet her!

Other Halloween Fun...

Brylee and her friend Paityn at school
Brylee's whole kindergarten class
Above is pics from last monday night. We carved Pumpkins with the Pena's for Family Home Evening. Sadly enough we have never carved pumpkins with our kids before! So sad i know, but they had a blast! Thanks Pena's for having us over!

Happy Halloween 2010!

Above is Payson's Pumpkin and Below is Brylee's.
These two were so cute for HALLOWEEN! I think Payson is sick every Halloween though:( He didn't feel up to doing much. He put on his costume and went out for a bit after alot of convincing. He was Batman and Bry was Pinky Pie from My Little Pony. This is the first year Brylee has actually been into it and loved dressing up! Maybe it took letting her pick out her costume....

This is the night before at her school carnival. It was really fun! They put alot of work into it.
My sad sick little Batman:( Broc had to sit in the car with him while we were in the carnival because he had a fever.
After the trick or treating, before we headed to Gringos to eat with our friends!
Hope Everyone had a Happy and Safe Halloween!

It's a.....

Here I am at 19 Weeks....I am now 20 weeks and I think I have doubled in size over a week. I did have my ultra sound today and we took the kids and made it a family event! I have only gained 11 lbs, which surprised me but made me so happy! Everything looked great.....especially the part where she said "your having another girl!". It made me tear up and it made the whole thing seem more real knowing what the baby is:) Brylee is SO excited to get a baby sister and Payson is just excited to have a baby. Broc is a little scared about having another girl but I think he will be wrapped around her little finger when she gets here. And I am way excited to start getting things ready for our new baby girl!!!:)
