And then there was an update....

Well you better believe that after 4 months, I'm finally back on the blog. I was doing so good at keeping it updated and then I somehow forgot to update, oops.  Well just a quick update and then some pictures from the last 4 months.
Korbin is growing so fast!  He will be 2 in less than a month, I'm having such a hard time believing that.  He still seems like my baby (and yes he always will be) but he has definitely become a little boy.  He is so tough and LOVES to wrestle.  He doesnt understand why Kyler isnt okay with Korbin tackling him all day long, and he loves wehn daddy gets home so that he can tackle him.  He loves balls of any sort and loves being outside to throw them.  This winter has been tough, he is constantly asking to go outside and doesnt get why we wont go out while its freezing and the air is bad.  He is such a sweetheart and gives the best hugs.  While he is definitely all tough boy, he has such a tender heart to him.  He hates people being mad at him and gives lots of hugs to make it all better.  He is so different from Kyler, it definitely makes things interesting.  He looks up to his big brother so much, most of the fights that I break up between them are because Korbin is trying to play with Kyler and kyler wants to do his own thing.  The story of a younger brother, right.  Korbin is an all over grandpa's boy.  If we tell him that we are going to see grandpa, then we better be getting in the car right away or he gets mad.  He walks right in to grandpa's house and looks for grandpa right away.  He loves that man!  We definitely love our Korbin and are so glad he is part of our family.
Kyler is 3 now!  It is so hard to believe. When he turned 3 he got a new speech therapist, who has been working on some new ideas with him.  Since his surgery last May he has definietly started talking more, we are just working on the eaunaction.  Even though he can be hard to understand, he always gets his point across.  He loves to make people laugh, especially Korbin.  He takes after Jason so much and is quite content doing his own thing.  He loves to play with others but also loves his time alone.  He has the best imagination and will play for hours.  He has been going to story time and has been loving it.  He got to go to little aggies preschool for a couple months and he loved that.  Makes me excited for when he starts preschool next year.  He has a sudden obsession with spiderman, which is really funny because he has never seen spiderman.  He is still our little sweetheart.  Last week during testimony meeting at church, one of the ladies who bore her testimony was crying.  Kyler wanted to go give her a hug.  He seriously melts my heart.  I love being mommy to my boys!
Jason is our superstar daddy/husband!  He is doing great at work.  He just recieved a big promotion last week and has been working so hard to succeed at it.  He is now a team lead.  It meant he had to switch teams at work and get a whole new profile, while organizing his new team plus transitioning his old profile.  He has been stressed to say the least but he is always ready to play with the boys when he gets home and always gives me a break.  He is going back to school in the next couple of weeks, which I am also proud of him for!  He had such a hard time at USU and was not happy there but he wanted to get his degree.  He's been taking a break as he has been looking into other schools.  He is going to be going to Steven's Henager and it seems like it will be a perfect fit.  We couldnt be more proud of him!  I definitely married my perfect man and boy do I love him!
I am doing well.  Baby K is doing well, growing nice and big inside of me, I feel huge!  I am 15 weeks and like 3 days.  We have our ultrasound set for February 6 to find out the gender, and we are so excited.  If it's a boy, then Jason and I are going to have to start agreeing on names because so far, we dont agree on any boy names.  If its a girl then her name will be Kaezli Belle.  The boys have been keeping me busy, plus I have been doing some work for my dad.  I am working on keeping life exciting while being cooped up inside so much (Kyler still doesnt do well with the inversions and the dr advised that I not be outside much either). I was called as an Activity days asst. in my ward and it's been fun trying to come up with fun activities for the girls.  I'm happy and am definitely loving my life!
now for pictures...
Aw, the days of sun!
We got to go to the circus, Kyler loved it, Korbin not so much!

I got to go the relief soceity session with my mom and sister, we had amazing seats.  I loved it!

Sadly I was in a wreck in October, our poor new van had to spend a couple weeks in the shop.

Such a cutie!

We got to try out gymnastics.  Kyler loved it, Korbin not so much.  We are looking to get both boys into it soon.

We rode horses a lot until the snow came.

I LOVE this picture of Korbin!

My big boy turned 3!  We had a fun party and were blessed with a wonderful family and friends that came!

Kyler's awesome pinata his uncle made for him!

Jason's halloween costume.

The only picture I took of Kyler, he was a knight.

Korbin's costume was my favorite!

Kyler and I got to go to hardware ranch with my family.  poor Korbin was sick so him and daddy stayed home.



Ready to play in the snow.

1, 2, 3!

So It has been awhile since I have been on here and I am in need of a MAJOR update! I was going to get on to do that now but the pictures are taking forever so get on to my computer so hopefully I can do an update tomorrow once pictures are on! But I will announce our big news now...
Baby #3 is coming in June!
I have been DYING to announce that for awhile but wanted to wait until after our first appt.  Our first appt was last week and it went great!  Our baby was dancing around like crazy, thus why the ultrasound is fuzzy.  It was so fun to watch but hard to get a good picture.  In case you cant tell but the little stick sticking up at one end is a leg and the arm is across the face on top.  It looks like we are going to have another shy baby!
This pregnancy has been SO different from both boys.  With both boys, I was so sick throwing up at least once a day for most of the pregnancy.  This pregnancy I have been nauseous but my main complaint has been light headness.  The only times I have thrown up was when the stomach bug passed through our home so I'm guessing it wasnt related to the pregnancy.  I have been super tired but that's pretty normal with pregnancy and chasing toddlers all day. And I have been super emotional, poor Jason just hasnt known what to do! It will be fun to find out what we are having in the next month or so.  We are thinking it's a girl but would be happy either way, I mean we make some pretty adorable boys!
I've honestly been scared to tell people because of reactions.  I had a friend on facebook that just announced the gender this past week.  She had multiple people telling her how her family was perfect now that she had 2 boys and 2 girls.  She even had one friend telling her that she better get her tubes tied and keep her legs shut.  I was getting so upset for her.  Her kids are all well taken care of and loved, they are a happy family! I honestly believe that how many kids and when a family has them is between husband, wife and the Lord.  I know some people probably think Jason and I are crazy for having 3 kids in 5 years but we are honestly so so excited!  I've had someone tell me that Jason and I must have been busy and someone else call me a baby maker.  It's so irritating.  This baby was and is very much wanted and we cannot wait to expand our family! 
I mean look how cute our family is!  I am so blessed to be a mommy to such adorable boys and am so excited to add another little one!  I am lucky to have my best friend help me in the crazy world of parenting, he definitely makes me a better parent.  We are just better together. 
Sorry for the rant, hormones :)  
Anyway, Baby #3 is due June 26, 2014 but considering both boys were 3 weeks early I am anticipating an early-mid june baby.  So excited!
Now lets hope pictures loaded and I will do an update soon but until then here is a cute shot of each boy! :)

Jackson Hole

Smetime in July it was planned that my family was going to Jackson.  Then it got canceled and then the week of it was decided it was back on, so to Jackson Hole we went.  We never actually went to Jackson Hole, just camped in the mountains near by.  It was our first time taking the boys camping so I was a little worried but they did great!
Jason wasnt able to get off work Friday, so we left as soon as we got off.  We drove straight there and got to the campsite a little before 10.  Luckily my parents, Ben and Allison had got there earlier in the day so they set up our tent for us.  Kyler fell asleep right before we got there, so Jason, Korbin and I got everything out of the car into the tent while he slept.  When we moved him to the tent he woke up and freaked out that we were no longer in the car.  We had to walk around the campsite and show him the horses before he would go back to the tent.  Korbin thought it was really funny to empty our suitcase all over the tent while we set up the air mattress, such a silly boy.  We got everything all situated and started getting the boys to bed (well Kyler, Korbin had no interest in sleeping, camping was too cool) when everyone else came back (they went to a play in Jackson).  Korbin and I went and said good night to them.  He was so excited to see everyone.  We finally got him to sleep but could not get him to sleep in the pack & play.  Which turned out being okay because it got COLD so he was warmer with us.  
He was still a super happy boy when he woke up the next morning!
Ben was awesome and got the fire going before everyone woke up!
Kyler was warming up to this camping idea!
When we woke up the next morning we enjoyed a little time around the campfire, then we did some exploring and then when everyone woke up we helped make breakfast.
Kyler was in charge of clearing off the table, he did a good job!
Then Jason and the boys set up the hammock.  Look at his cute helpers.
After breakfast, we did some more exploring.  Jason cut some firewood and we took care of the horses.
Kona and fritz were fighting over a bone.
Kyler and I tried out the hammock, we loved it!
I think Ben enjoyed it too!
We went down to the river a lot, the boys loved throwing rocks in.
Or Korbin liked getting in the water.  you will notice many outfit changes, Korbin got dirty A LOT!
Kyler's favorite part was the horses, he wanted to ride them all the time!
He even got to ride with Grandpa!
Just enjoying a snack!
Kyler was such a good helper!
He loved hanging out with Uncle Ben!
Another ride on the horsey!
After lunch, Mom, Dad, Jason and Allison went on a horse ride while Ben and I put the boys down for a nap.  They sadly didnt sleep too long but we got to relax a little.
I got to relax in the hammock and enjoy this amazing view!
Then we went and played in the river some more.
Korbin got to ride the horse when everyone got back.
We were really close to the hot springs so of course we had to go check it out!
Korbin kept trying to walk in the water!
Practicing swimming.
Love my family!
After the hot springs, Kyler helped grandpa feed boogie...that him on top of the horse.
When we got back we had yummy dinner and went to bed.  This time we were smart and made Korbin a bed by us.  We got all the blankets out of the car so we all stayed warm and had room on the bed.
We forgot to have smores the night before we had them for breakfast!  Ben was trying to melt his chocolate so he put a wipe on a spatula and then the cracker and chocolate.  It didnt work out too well.
Korbin was always dirty!
He loved playing in the dirt!
My dad, Jason and Kyler went fishing.  Jason and Kyler didnt stay long because Kyler kept throwing rocks in scaring the fish.   When they came back they brought me flowers.  Cutest thing ever!
After breakfast we went back to the river for some more fun!
How cute is he!
Then we played some games before we cleaned up!
korbin played with fritz while we played games.
Then it was time to clean up, which Kyler wasnt sure about.  He was starting to love camping!
Kona thought our tent was a good place to rest.
After we cleaned up, we headed home.  It was a short trip but so much fun!  We are already planning our trip for next year which will be longer!
Kyler of course had to have one more horse ride before we left!  He LOVES riding the horses!
