My Boys

My two boys in their Michigan attire! Weston is such a daddy's boy. He is attached to Brett's hip when he is home. The other day I was trying to let Brett sleep in so I was trying to fib to Weston and tell him that daddy was at work but the little bugger is so smart he knows what daddy brings to work and he saw his daddy's work jacket and computer bag and kept pointing to it saying "daddy fogot!" Then the smart little guy decided to go check to make sure daddy wasn't home and snuck upstairs when I wasn't looking and found his daddy!! It is so cute the bond Madison and Weston have with their daddy. I couldn't ask for a better "daddy" for my kids and for a better husband.

So Brett's sister Bridgette loves to tease Weston about Brett! So she will grab Brett's arm and say "MY DADDY"!! Weston does not take kindly to that and will get this mean look on his face and yell at her "Bidette yet go now wight NOW!" and go running over to Brett and try to take her hand off of him. This is him pointing at his daddy saying "MY DADDY!" This time Weston went as far as to sit on Brett's shoulders and wrap his legs around Brett's neck and then wrapped his arms around the top of his head and just sat there wrapped around his daddy's head yelling "MY DADDY MINE!!" We were all laughing so hard. The best part is is the I FINALLY got the whole thing on video!!!!

Halloween, Wes Birthday, & Thanksgiving!!

One of our date nights! My sister in law did my makeup since I am makeup challenged!! We have been doing a lot more date nights which has been so nice! They are even funner now that I have not been having morning sickness!

This is the best picture that I got on Halloween! We had so much fun! We went trick-or-treating with my best friend and her husband and 2 girls and my sister in laws and their boys! We went around my moms neighborhood and actually made out with a good amount of candy! It was fun too because my brother and his wife and two kids were at grandma's so we all got to go together! It was so much fun watching the kids running up to the doors and seeing their excitement when they got candy!! Weston however was actually more interested in asking everyone to see their dogs then to get the candy!!

This is my cute little two year old!!! He turned 2 on the 7th of this month! Its so crazy that he is so big!!! He was 5 lbs 13 ounces! now he is 29.5 lbs! he is over the 95th percentile for height! He is a comedian. He loves making people laugh and if you aren't laughing at what he is doing then he will continue to try new things until you just bust up laughing at him! He just has the funnest personality. He is just about the same size as Madi which makes for some pretty funny wrestling matches!!

He is stuffing the ENTIRE cupcake into his mouth! He learned that one from his daddy that's for sure!! hehehehehe

this is what was left of the smashed cupcake! The rest surprisingly made it into his mouth! Well minus a few crumbs here and there!

Thanksgiving we went to grandma and papa's to eat! My dad is a proud owner of a backhoe!! And Weston loves the thing! He wanted in it as soon as he saw papa by it! Brett put him in it one time before and he loved it! He is fearless which is a good but bad thing all at once!

She however was absolutely terrified to get in the backhoe. I had to lift her up and Brett had to grab her and hold her and talk to her for a minute before she calmed down. Then he started moving the bucket and all of that and she actually started enjoying it and having fun and helping move the bucket around!

Madi was such a huge help!! Uncle Nick was putting napkins on the table and Madi went and started helping him!

Our  neighbors have this tree that loves to shed in our backyard...... Leaved in the fall and these annoying seed petle looking things in the spring.... But this fall it worked out really well because the kids loved playing in the leaves!! I have an amazing husband that got up with the kids and let me go back to sleep for a while and he took them outback and raked leaves and let them jump and play in them forever!

Weston is looking down like what happened to my legs!?!? hahaha!! These two are so funny! They love to come pat my belly and talk to the baby. I am excited to see them with the baby! We might find out in a couple weeks what we are having! I'm excited!!!

Michigan!!



So Brett and the guys in the Reeves family all met up in Michigan this year and wet to a Michigan football game!! He was in heaven when he was there! His aunt and mom came to the game too but other then that it was just all the guys in the family! It was so nice because the plane ticket and game tickets were bought for him so it was expense free for us!! Thanks Randy and Bonnie! If he could live in the "Big House" he would! Poor guy was sick though when he was out there so he didn't get to be as wild and crazy as he would have liked to be... But that's okay he still had fun!



The "Big House"

This is Ryan, Brett's brother. When these two get together its like being around two 12 year old boys lol! They are so funny though and so much fun to be around! I'm sure these two enjoyed "guy time!"

Here is my handsome man at the game!

The fire hydrants are even decorated like football players lol!

Look how cute my baby girl is!!!! Speaking about babies.....................  I'M PREGNANT!!!!! YUP THAT'S RIGHT!!!!! BABY #3 IS ON THE WAY!!!!! MY DUE DATE IS MAY 16!!!

TOO MUCH FUN!!!!!!!

Forth of July at Grandma and Papa Snow's!! So much fun eating homemade ice cream and cookies and BBQ and Watermelon! I LOVE SUMMER!!!!!

This is the new scene here at the Reeves home! My sister in law lives with us and she has 2 little boys 11 months apart so its like I have triplets in the house! We have a 3 year old a 2 year old 21 month old and a 1 year old! CRAZINESS!!!!

He is such a goof!!!!! This is the new smile I get now when I tell him to say cheese!!!

I wasn't playing in mud mom!!!!

We had all of Brett's siblings here for a few days but Ryan couldn't be here with us so we decided to Skype him!! We laughed for hours it was so much fun and entertaining!!! I miss getting all of the siblings together in Brett's family! They are so much fun and there is just never a dull moment! Every second is filled up with laughing and talking and just having a good time together! Lets do it again soon you guys! This time Ryan be here lol!!!! (By the way that is a ninja turtle hat he has on lol!!)



So we played a game called "True Colors" it is freaking hilarious when played with the right people! And this was the ideal crowd to be playing with! So this was one of the questions and everyone had to vote on the person or people that are most like this. The results........................

These two won! Everyone put one vote in for Brett and on in for Bridgette! I swear we laughed for hours about this!! Oh and Bridgette got Brett that pin he is wearing and it says "This is what awesome looks like"!! They claime to be the "most awesome people in the world" lol!!! So much fun!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My baby.....My sweet sweet baby boy........ We took down the crib that made him still seem to me like a baby and moved him into a big boy bed..... So sad!!! I may have teared up a little.....





He is now officially in a "big boy" bed........ how sad!!!!!!!! What happened to my tiny little baby!?!?!? He talks so much now its crazy. He uses complete sentences and can communicate with us so wells its crazy!

My best bestie in the whole wide world came to join the family fun and played "True Colors" with us! We decided to have a competition...... Rachelle, Desi and me.... Rachelle took the painful clip off first then there was us...... Two stubborn competitive girls......

  

I am not as stubborn as my bestie but I had to give before her my nose was seriously killing me! I swear the tip of my nose was going to fall off!!! Look at our poor noses.......Someday I will be more stubborn Desi!!!!!

The crew!!!!!! Minus Ryan :(

I'm telling you never a dull moment!!!!

This is the oldest nephew on Brett's side. This is my sweet little Jaden... He is not so little anymore..... but Madi loved him and followed him around everywhere. He is such a good big cousin and helped out so much and played with the kids like crazy!!!

So we have "dance parties" at my house. We hook up Brett's computer to our TV and have cool designs on the screen and stuff and this is Madi being the DJ. She is so cute!!!

Who knew you were supposed to color on yourself with markers!! Its the new fad!! lol silly Madi.

Me and Jaden he is only 8!! He is so tall!!!!

Father's Day

This is my best friend and the love of my life. He is the best father and husband. Everyday when daddy gets home all I hear is screaming and then a bunch of giggling! Finally after the kids have tackled and played with daddy for a few minutes he is aloud to get up and come say hello to me and then off he goes back to lay on the ground and be the "playground" for our kids! He is so amazing with them! He loves them unconditionally. He changes diapers, bathes, reads to them, puts them to bed, and a ton more things. I had to have a cyst removed out of my wrist a few weeks back and it was a surgery that I had to be knocked out for. He sat by me keeping me company and keeping my mind off of the surgery until they took me back (may I just add that whatever the heck they gave me gave me the giggles so bad! I even woke up giggling and it wasn't laughing gas it was something to "make me not nervous") He brought me home that day made sure I ate and put me to bed! He took care of me and our kids for 4 days straight and did not complain once! He not only had to bathe and dress the kids and himself he had to bathe and help dress me! I couldn't grab anything and couldn't really use that hand for a few days it sucked! He was absolutely amazing though! I seriously am so lucky to have a husband that is willing to do anything to help me and the kids and lightens my load. I am so grateful to have him in my life. I am so grateful that he is the father of my kids. There are so many guys out there that just want to make babies and then leave it all to the mom to do everything else. Brett however loves to do things for his kids and with his kids. Thanks babe for everything you do for us. I love you with all my heart. You are our rock. You truly "sons first hero and our daughters first love". XOXOXOXO 

DISNEY WORLD!!!!!!!!!

That's right we went to Disney World in Orlando, Florida this past week! It was so warm!! It was a little too humid the first couple of days but then we started to get used to it! I am so lucky to have awesome parents that save up money so every few years my whole family can go on vacation together and have fun together!! We had so much fun but I am so glad to be home recuperating from the traveling and the go-go-go that this vacation was!! The kids actually slept really well at night and the poor things had to take naps on the go... Anyone that knows me knows that I do not like having my kids on the go sleeping. I like them to get their full naps in so there is no grumpy kids in the evening. It didn't turn out too bad though at night time which was surprising. You could tell every night at dinner that the kids were just done and worn out from the day. So we would bring them to the hotel give them baths and put them to bed. They would of course think that when mommy and daddy said its bed time that that meant it was PLAY TIME!!! The play ride back was oh so exciting with a hyper 1 1/2 year old wanting EVERYONES attention and wanting to run up and down the aisle and not wanting to sit still or even let his eyes halfway close!!! So yes I had the screaming child that people want to throw out the window!!!! Its okay we survived and thankfully the people that sat around us were not grumpy people. Weston is such a little attention getter. He would say hi to everyone and if someone didn't say hi to him he would scream to get their attention and then say hi again until they said hi back! I was surprised his arm didn't fall off with how much waving he did the whole week to every single person that walked by! He seemed to really like the trip though! Our first day at the park we went to the Magical Kingdom and we had perfect timing because as soon as we walked up to the big castle the little Mickey Mouse show began so Madi got to see the princesses and Mickey and his whole gang on stage singing and dancing! Madi was so excited to see the princesses!! I swear that girl does not show much excitement over anything!!! The only way we can really tell if she liked something is if she continues to talk about it for days after! We went to Epcot another day and Madi and Weston got to say hi and hug Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Pluto, and Goofy! Weston freaked out with those characters it was kinda funny!! Okay who am I kidding it made me laugh!! Madi wasn't too sure with the first character but everyone after that she would give big hugs to and stuff it was so cute!! Later that night she was in bed and all of a sudden got really sad and told her daddy, "Daddy I didn't give Donald hugs! I need to go give him hugs!" (Brett replies) "Sweetheart you did give him hugs you gave all of them hugs today" "No daddy not Donald I need to go give him hugs!" It seriously was so cute! She had this sad little pouty tone in her voice and everything and she seriously was so sad because she didn't hug Donald! (by the way she did she just didn't remember!) We also went to Sea World! This was Brett's first time ever going! It was fun and by far all of our favorite place! We watched the Shamu show (which by the way the trainers stay their distance away from the whales and no longer get in the water with them because a trainer was killed a year ago by one of them...) But it was still awesome to see them and have the kids be so close to them and see them and everything. We saw as Madi would say "mingos" (flamingos) and all types of fun things!!! The last day in Florida Brett and me and our 2 kids and my dad headed to the beach and everyone else headed to Universal Studios! We had fun on the beach and it was nice to just lay back and relax the last day there and just enjoy ourselves in our own slow pace. Madi is too much like me and is scared of the ocean and Weston had so much fun going out in the water with Brett and he loved the waves until they splashed his face! Over all though we had fun getting nice and sandy and being able to be on the beach was amazing! I can actually say for the first time in a very very long time my kids were very healthy there! The humidity helped Weston a ton with his breathing and Madi didn't cough all night and slept so good! We have cool mist humidifiers in their rooms right now but obviously they aren't doing the trick!  Oh and Weston had his 18 month old check up today! Here are his stats!!!  Length 35" he is way above the 97 % line he is way above the curve which makes his daddy so proud! lol! Weight 25lbs 50% which means he is tall and skinny!!! Head circumference 49.2cm 75% which means he is tall skinny and has lots of brains lol!!! Oh and to my not so good surprise he has a double ear infection! I had no idea! I thought he was healthy!! But nope that couldn't be the case! At least we caught it though before it got really really bad. He never shows signs of an ear infection its weird. The times that I have thought he had one he didn't! And when he has had them it is a surprise for the most part. Oh and I almost forgot to put in one of the best surprises that I have had in a long time!! We have some very very good friends that have been like second parents to me growing up. They used to be my parents neighbors in Vegas and they have known me since birth and have treated me like their daughter! Well we get to the hotel after traveling all day and all of a sudden I hear a familiar voice I turn to see the person who has this voice and there they are! Mike and Gail totally surprised me and my siblings! My parents planned this a few months back to have them meet up with us out there in Florida and somehow my mom didn't spill the beans on accident and neither did Gail! It was such an awesome surprise! We haven't seen them in a couple years and so it was so awesome to be able to spend time with them and have them meet Weston for the first time and everything! Hopefully one day we will live closer together so we can party all the time!! Well enough of the rambling I'll post some pictures now!

These two cheese ball crack me up some days!!! Weston loves to do whatever Madi is doing and Madi loves to boss him around so it is a pretty good thing they have going!!

On the little tram thing on our way to The Magical Kingdom on our first day there!

The huge castle behind us! I believe that Walt Disney himself had a little apartment inside of it! I don't think I would want to live in that castle unless it was completely sound proof from the outside world!

Madi watching the show on daddy's shoulders!

The Sword in the Stone!

I love this picture! This is a little look into the relationship of these two cousins! Madi trying to tell Kai what to do and Kai shrugging his shoulders like well I guess I should do it!(really tho these two get along some days and others well lets just say it could definitely become a cage match very quickly!)

This is what I saw the whole trip. These cute little eyes looking up at me just begging to be picked up and held..... (these eyes are going to get him a lot of girlfriends in the future!)

Pointing at his yummy food! These kids loved eating as much fruit as possible there! It was just so hot and muggy that fruit was so juicy and delicious!! He also loves chicken nuggets!



This is at Epcot it was so cool they did an amazing job on these bushes! There was I think all the princesses and everything sculpted into the bushes all over the place! They had amazing detail too!



At Cocoa beach in Florida! It was about 45 minutes away from where we were. It was either Cocoa or Daytona and we decided to go to the least touristy one because by this time we were just done with all the people everywhere! These two are such good buds! I absolutely love this picture of the two of them. There is nothing like seeing your husband have such an amazing bond with his kids.

FYI swim diapers keep water from seeping in and blowing up the diaper but it sure as heck doesn't hold liquid it! Poor Wes was soaked by the time we got to the beach! So I put a regular diaper on him and let him run around like this for a little!

Papa showing Wes how to dig and get dirty in the sand! I'm seriously so grateful that I live so close to my family. I had such an amazingly close bond with my dads parents and I will never forget the things I learned from them and the love I felt from them. I love that my kids are so attached to their grandparents. Weston is a total Papa's boy and Madi is 100% grandma's girl! I cant wait to be able to see Brett's family more and have my kids know them so much better. Thank heavens for Skype so my kids can at least know what Brett's siblings and parents look like and sound like!!

Chillin with Papa!

Papa trying to get Madi to go closer to the water! She is just as bad as I am poor thing! Its okay she had fun building things and playing with her papa.

Weston loved the water!! He went out with Brett and was having so much fun playing in the water! I'm pretty sure Brett is thankful that at least one of the kids is daring! And I'm glad Madi is chicken like me so that I have a good excuse to stay out of the deeper parts of the water!!

Look how awesome these look!!
