Kids at wedding

She had the best photographer in the world, he did a great job!





Beautiful Bride

My sister had waited for that day for so long and I think it turned out just the way she wanted. She was an absolutely beautiful bride!

Enjoying US time

Here are some pics of Brian and I dancing at my sister Kim's wedding. We had a chance to have some us time after the kids left. I'm glad the photographer got some because I didn't have time for the camera.

Grandpa's 4 wheeler

Brian's step-dad has a 4 wheeler and we try and take the kids down to see the llamas (sp?) when we are there. The kids love it, they have about 15 on this farm almost across the road. Parker loves to ride or should I say drive just like his daddy.

Misc pics

Working on his swimming...

Being brave by putting his face in the water...

Loves his bath toy Aunt Kimmy and Uncle Christpher got him for his b-day.

Memorial Day

I know it's past, but I just remembered that we took pics of the kids in the lake on Memorial Day. We were at his parents and they wanted to go in the water although it was only 63 in the water. Kayla was showing him what you can do with mud too as you can see by all of it on his life jacket. Parker wanted to go swimming,but we didn't want them to put their heads under water because of the temp. He loves to swim though and Kayla is doing great at swimming. Despite her fear just last summer. She wants to swim without her lifejacket too. Huge step for her. We are proud of her. They go swimming on Wednesdays for daycare at the high school. She is excited. I'm going to go up there her first time and watch her.

YEAH FOR THE POTTY!!!

This morning I was going to the bathroom and Parker was in there with me. He got in the closet and got out the potty seat and wanted me to get off the toilet. By the time I was finished he had his pj pants off and trying to get his diaper off. I set him up there and was showing him that he needs to push his wee wee down when he goes pee, so of course he was doing it too. So smart. Then he started to push I thought for sure he was just making the noises, but no he wasn't. He went poopy on the potty!!! I couldn't believe it. Of course then he was all excited and clapping because I was just about in tears because I was so excited. I was yelling for Kayla to get the camera. After we got pictures done it was time to get off. He didn't want to. Kayla thought that was funny. So I let him sit there for about 5 minutes and finally got him off. We had to go wake daddy up and tell him. We were all so excited. I think this was more exciting than his first steps because he got the seat by himself and knew what he was doing. He picks up on things so fast these days, it's almost scary. We shall see how long this lasts. I am going to get the potty chair out today. YEAH FOR PARKER!!!!!
