Colton is 18 months!

My little Man is 18 months! i cant believe he is almost 2 where has the time gone. We went to the doctor today for his shots and he cried for just a little bit he was so brave, they gave him a otter pop cause he did so great, he was so excited and ate it so fast. He is such a fun guy, he is such a flirt and knows it. He loves to be mommys big helper he always throws his sisters diapers or his own away and says trash and runs to the trash to throw it away. He is learning new thing and words everyday. He loves his baby sister so much he always puts his hands out and says baby that means he wants to hold her, even though it only lasts for a few seconds it is priceless to see his little face light up. He has a mouth full of teeth and some are still making their way in. I love that he understands me when i ask him if he wants something he will nod his head and if he doesnt i get nothing so funny. He can say more than 20 words, and still learning. He loves to give high fives and nuckles. Even if he is scared of someone he will still give them a high five it is funny. I love Colton so much and i am so lucky and blessed that he is all mine. We love you colton.

Mya's big day!

On May 16th we blessed our beautiful little baby girl! she looked so pretty. She was great during the blessing, she was asleep and once the prayer was over she was wide awake. Weird how that happens but i was glad that she didnt cry at all. My dad gave her the blessing and it was the best blessing i have ever heard, he did an excellent job. We are so blessed to have this wonderful baby girl in our lives. She brings so much joy into our home. I couldnt imagine life without our little angel. I am greatful to have such great family who was able to come and support us.

Also mya turned 2 months. She is smiling like no other but when i pull out the camera to take some snapshots she is not about to smile (little turkey). She is such a cuddly baby. Colton did not like to be cuddled so i am taking advantage while i can. She seems to be a tad bit of a mammas girl the only other person that she will allow to hold her is daddy. Everyone else she will cry within seconds, it is kinda exhausting but i love it, it makes me feel needed. Colton is becoming to have a love for her. He LOVES to hold her he thinks he is pretty cool when she sits on his lap it is so cute. Just this morning he was laying on his back and we set her on his stomach and she threw up on him he tried to stop it from coming out, it was funny he didnt know what was happening. We are so greatful for the opportunity to get to raise these 2 sweet babies heaven father has given us such wonderful blessing and we are truly greatful for that.

Her stats:

Weight: 10lbs 7oz (37th percentile)
Height: 22 inches (33rd percentile)
Head: 15inches (31st percentile)

She is still small but is growing and the doctor says she looks great, which is a blessing. Here are some pictures from the blessing and just hanging around the house.

My other baby!

Ever since we have brought mya home colton has become quite jealous of her. He climbs in her swing, bouncers and bassinett and thinks he is the baby. He is determined to be the baby still. Granted he is only 16 months and really still is a baby he wants to still be called the baby. Hopefully he will get over that and still know that we love him regardless that mya is around. It is challenging having 2 kids but it is getting better. Just trying to get into somewhat of a schedule well if you can call it that is hard. But colton is getting better with her and loves her a lot more than when he first saw her. He cant wait to see her in the morning he runs right over to her and wants to kiss her hair, i dont know why he does that but i think he likes the way her hair feels on his lips, weird i know but it is cute to see him love on her. He tries to help me burp her while i am feeding he pats her back and then laughs cause he thinks he is so cool and such a big helper (which he is) he loves to throw away her poopy diapers and then will give me a high five and then knuckles it is too cute. We love our crazy bug.

1 month old!

My little angel is 1 month old! i cant believe how fast time flies. She is such a joy to have in our home. colton is such a good big brother but gets jealous a lot when i am feeding Mya and holding her instead of him. I sometimes feel like i dont spend enough time with him but once i fully get a grasp on having a new baby, having 2 kids to take care of i will get better at being a good mom. Mya is soo sweet and precious. She is always laughing and smiling in her sleep. I always wonder what they think and dream about at this age. she is still a small little peanut but is growing each day and beautiful as can be. We are so happy to have her a part of this family we are truly blessed to have such wonderful babies. we love you mya and cant wait to see what you can do next. i realized that most of these pictures are of her sleeping, but that pretty much what she does and loves to do right now. Love you baby girl.

Easter Weekend!

Easter was fun this year cause colton knew a little more about what was going on. We went up to heber for my moms 60th birthday party. It was so much fun we rented a huge cabin that was able to fit all 37 of us and it had a lot of things to do there. i spent a lot of it inside cause i didnt want Mya to get sick cause it was cold there. But i was able to capture a lot of fun moments. There was a zip line that all the kids couldnt get enough of, even my mom went down it that was funny to see her going down it i think she even screamed, what a fun mom and grammy. That night we played family feud the in laws against the smith family, And we lost boohoo! but it was so much fun it got heated a few times but we had a blast.
Colton and andrew spent a lot of time playing on the playground and in the sand volleyball court and just running around. He loved it cause he was able to be outside a lot and had open range. Everyone just loved him and how happy and how he smiled all the time. i am so glad to have such happy babies. saturday morning was an early one for us mya woke up at 4:30 to eat which woke up colton so he was alive and wasnt about to go back to sleep. So we let daddy and Mya sleep while we went and played with the neices and nephews that we awake and they just loved to play with colton. colton is lucky to have such wonderful cousins who get on his level and could just play with him for hours. A few hours later (well a lot later) we had the egg hunt. Colton was so excited to get the eggs but wanted to eat each one as we went but he did a good job. Mya was a good baby let anyone hold her and slept a lot so she didnt really do much. We had to leave after lunch cause andrew had to work that night. We had so much seeing family that we havent seen in a long time, and also a shout out to my amazing mom we love you and happy 60th birthday!
We went to andrews moms on sunday and just hungout with his family, watched conference, and ate a ton of food. I just love spending time with family. Hope everyone had a great Easter! here are a few pictures of the weekend.

Crazy Colton!

Our crazy Little man is 16 months. He is so much fun to have around our home. He is into EVERYTHING like always and is a typical boy. He is such a good big brother, every morning when he wakes up and sees his sister he gets so excited and wants to hold her and kiss her it is so cute to watch. He is learning that he has to be soft with her and is doing really good. He will come and sit next to me and eat a snack while i feed sister he thinks he is pretty cool when he does that (i think he likes the snack more than anything.)
He is alway keeps us laughing it is never a dull moment with this crazy maniac. He loves to flirt with any girl he sees and is always so happy. For some reason every night he comes really alive and is crazy, he will chase around our dogs and think that it is the funniest thing in the world he laughs so hard that you cant help but laugh with him. He is really obsessed with airplanes, he will stop whatever he is doing and point up in the air when a plane goes by. When we go on walks and they fly over us he gets so happy and waves to them as they go by.
He loves to help me with whatever i am doing especially the dishes. He loves to throw away baby sisters diapers and helps with the laundry and his new thing is sweeping he thinks its pretty awesome when i let him have it and goes to the kitchen and pushes it around. Everytime i have to change his diaper i say lets change your bum and he runs to his room waiting for me and also for bed i say lets go nigh night and he runs to his bed. Everytime he hears the bath he is trying to strip off his clothes, once we help him he runs naked to the bath and trys to jump in. I just love this little man to pieces i could go on and on about him he is just so fun. Here are some pictures of him crazy as always.

2 weeks already!

Today my little princess is 2 weeks old! She is such a good baby and is doing good. Since she isnt really doing much since eating, sleeping and pooping all over me, she is such a joy to have in our home besides all the sleepless nights. I love all the noises she makes and smiles and laughs. Colton is such a cute big brother he loves her now and wants to hug and kiss her all the time. Sometimes he is a little ruff but that will get better. She went to the doctor today and her stats are:

Weight: 6lbs 7oz (5th percentile)
height: 19 1/2 inches (20th percentile)
Head: didnt get the measurement but (13th percentile)

So i am not use to seeing these numbers. I am used to seeing through the roof numbers, colton was such a big baby and mya is so itty bitty. but i guess that it is a good thing right. We are so lucky and blessed that we have this sweet baby girl in our home, we all just love her to pieces. well here are just a few pictures of our little girl.
