Black eyes and Anniversaries!

No I do not abuse my child!!! She decided to walk around with a thick plastic cup which she does all the time! She tripped over her feet and this was the end result! To be honest I got a little worried that I may have to bring her to an urgent care because it looked pretty deep and thick but my mom told me to wait and try to clean it off a little so I did and it ended up looking worse then what it really was!

The next day she had a beautiful purple eye!!! Her first shiner!! I just told her she should show all her little friends and tell them if you think this is bad you should see the other kid and if they mess with her she'll give them a matching one!! (i know that's so bad of me!!)

Apparently daddy makes a REALLY good lounge chair!!

We were so proud of her she went down the slide all by herself!! We would clap for her every time so then she would crawl up a little then get off the slide stand up and give us this huge cheesy smile and clap!! She is so funny sometimes!!!

My daughter snuck up while grandma wasn't paying attention to her drink stole it then ran back to the pool and continues to drink grandma's coke!!! She didn't want to drink it any where else but in the pool it was funny!! She is definitely all girl there is NO question about it!!

We just had our 4 year anniversary on July 23 and my cute hubby brought me home these beautiful roses. I made us dinner and made him pick me up a salad from Olive Garden (I was craving the yummy Pepporchinis that they put on it!!! thanks Lucy!! lol!!)

Grandma watched Madison while Brett and I went out of town for a night to celebrate our anniversary. Can I just say my husband did an AMAZING job!!! The hotel was absolutely amazing! It had a huge tub a big shower and a Kitchenette with a huge fridge and everything else you would need a fire place (Brett had to turn it on before we left it was funny) and Brett's favorite part and would have been mine too if I wasn't pregnant it had a hot tub on the balcony!!! The bed was so soft I didn't want to get out of it!! I tried to talk Brett into putting it on the top of our car so we could bring it home but as he pointed out someone might notice us stealing it so I had to leave it..... so sad..... lol!
My dad and Robby drove my dad's 1923 T-bucket car that he is fixing up to a mechanic shop of a guy my dad is pretty good friends with so the two guys can finish up the wiring and everything! I followed them over there and laughed the entire way! Madi probably thought her mommy was losing it! These two boys don't exactly fit in there! This is my dad's pride and joy right now all of us kids that are here have all had a chance to help him work on it. Even our friends!! It is supposed to be Candy Apple Red...... I think it needs to be a brighter red then this!

My dad is 6'4" look at his knee hanging out the side!! I am 5'5" and my legs even seem a little too long to fit in there! My dad is so determined to drive it and as you can see he crammed his legs in there! Look at how squished Rob and him are!Rob was practically sitting on the dad's lap!

Summer Fun!!!

This is my new favorite dress on Madi!! Her Aunt Jaclyn and Uncle Ryan gave it to her and Jaclyn even made her cut little bow! I always swore I wouldn't have a girly girl but I just love putting her in cute little dresses and stuff!!

I got to watch my friend Lucy's little girl Addie for a few hours a few weeks ago and these two girls had so much fun together!! They like to get in trouble together too!! Addie would feed Madi and Madi would bring Addie toys while she was supposed to be eating in the high chair it was cracking me up!!

This is my little diva!! We went to the Lehi Parade and Madi wore a "Future Miss Lehi" shirt and Mandie even brought a little crown for her to wear! She wore the crown almost the whole time and the sunglasses were just for the picture she doesn't like them to stay on!

Desi and I went to my moms to play and the girls found this corner so much fun to sit in and eat their suckers!! It looks like Kylee is telling Madi to ssshhh and keep something a secret!!

So we went swimming at Desi's and Madison was NOT a happy camper!! She hated it!! Then she didn't even want me she only wanted Desi!! So I took Kylee and Desi took Madi and by the way both girls had sun screen on and Kylee got darker and I swear Madi got whiter!! lol!!

My child has this thing with diaper boxes on the couch and then cramming herself into them!! Grandma only had a small one but she managed to fit herself into it!!

The fourth of July my brother Corry and his wife Meg came to play and eat yummy food at my parents! These two are so funny they don't really play together but they sure keep an eye on one another to make sure one isn't getting food that the other one isn't and to make sure where the other one is at all times! Sometimes they will play but Madi isn't into sharing yet and takes poor Kai's toys but don't worry he has figured out if he grabs it and runs she can't catch him so it makes for a lot of entertainment!!

Madi just sitting on her chair the boys were all throwing a ball around so she would just sit and watch then steal the ball and run it was funny!

Sorry I just had to put this picture on here! It looks like Kai is going to explode!! He is freezing poor baby but it looks like he is mad and Madi is laughing at him!! Don't worry we put the pool in the sun and took Kai's shirt off and he warmed up a little!

Madison thinks this slip and slide is so fun!! She would bend over too far and get sprayed in the face and then laugh! She is a goof!

She finally loves being in the pool!! I think we have put her in enough that she is finally liking it!! This is the first time Brett and I have ever seen her shiver cause she was cold!! But she didn't want to get out so we ended up having to bring her inside and put her in a warm bath until she was done playing in the water. Yes she is spoiled rotten!!

The results are in!!!

So for everyone I have not called, texted, or seen we found out today what we are having!!! Drum roll please..........................It's a BOY!!!! No joke we are totally having a boy!!!! Both Brett and I had feelings about it but then I have been double guessing it and didn't want to get my hopes up either way but when we found out I can't deny the fact that I was so happy!! I thought Brett was about to pee his pants and run out of the room and scream at the top of his lungs!! He is very excited!! HAHA we beat you Ryan!! Maybe this will bring you guys luck!! lol! Well I gotta run just wanted to put this on the blog!!

Happy Father's Day!!!

The day we said "I do" and our life together began.

The day he became a daddy and his heart melted for this tiny 6 lb 9 ounce baby girl.

She still has daddy wrapped around her tiny fingers.

I just wanted to say happy father's day to my wonderful loving, kind, generous, thoughtful husband! He has been my rock for the past 4 plus years and I am forever grateful to him. He is my eternal companion and I wouldn't want anyone else. He is the best father to our beautiful little girl. After a long day of work he still has the energy to come home and play and help take care of our rambunctious(sp) little one year old!! He works so hard to support our family. He sacrifices so much for us and spends all weekend nights working then sleeping 8 hours waking up spending time with us and then leaving again. We love him so unconditionally and love all the time that we get to spend with him whether it be 1 hour or 5 every moment with him is amazing. Madi knows when its time for her dad to get home and she walks around the kitchen and looks out the back door and yells DAAAAD DAAAAD!!! Then when his car pulls up out front she jumps up and down and bangs on the back door and squeels and yells and just starts freaking out until he hurries up the stairs and in the house and picks her up. I don't know what I would do without him and am so glad that I have a husband that will do anything for his family and loves me and our children unconditionally. I love you babe!!

MICHIGAN!!!!!

Madison wanted some of Jadens quesadilla and he was so cute and would feed her and he started doing this all by himself and we turned around and saw him doing this. My guess is she walked up to him and tried to snatch his food!!!

She was so scared of the water at first and then she just took off walking and she kept wanting to go deeper and deeper so Brett had to turn her around so they didn't go in too far!!

Aunt Bridgette and Madison on the boat. This was Madison's first time on a boat!! She loved it too she kept pointing at all the sea weed yucky stuff in the lake too!

Madison and daddy relaxing at the back of the boat!

All the cousins minus Landen who was sleeping in the back of the boat. Brett and his brother both have girls and all the girls in the family have boys!! Maybe its to soften Brett and Ryan up!!! lol!! We will see if we are going to be adding to the boys or the girls in a month or so!!

I did not want to get in the water.... I LOVE swimming and stuff but all the sea weed and crap in this lake freaked me out!! It looked like pine trees were growing and some of the time they were right up close to the surface!!! (the only reason i got in was to go pee and the life jacket was to make sure i didn't have to kick my legs in the seaweed!!)

We spent a day with our friends Gail and Mike while we were out there and we went to the zoo and they had this huge park and pond in the same parking lot so we went and talked to the birds and Gail threw them bread. Madi kept saying Bir Bir Bir!!! that means Bird!!

My husband may be white but this boy can freaking jump!!! He can jump as high as a Snow leopard. I didn't attempt this I knew I wouldn't even be able to hit the blue one!! haha!

Madison wanted to try it out so she went up to the sign and stood up on her tip toes it was cute!! She always does cute things but when we try to get her to do it again so we can get it on video or take a picture she won't cooperate!

Us at the zoo. Madi was EXHAUSTED!!!

She wanted to drive grandpa Reeves jeep though so I told her to ask him for one when she turns 16!!! haha she thought she was so cool though moving the steering wheel back and forth!


This is Ryan and Brett. Ryan in the weirdo in the family we don't know where he got his height from!! He is 6'4" and Brett is 5'10" or 11" and the rest are girls! (we love you Ryan!!) But we got him and Brett and Brett's dad matching Michigan shoes so I had to two boys model them for me Brett's dad was sleeping so we couldn't get him in on the picture...


This is the view on the "Lake House" from the lake. Yes this is where Brett's parents live right on a lake.... I am no doubt jealous!! I love it though!! Look how green it looks!! And this isn't even the best of pictures of their property!

This is my cheese ball she looks like she is doing a courtesy laugh at me!! She has out of no where started to say words!! Her favorite it "UP"!! Whether she wants up or down she says it so we are trying to teach her the difference between up and down. Here is a list of words she says;
up
dow (down)
daw (dog)
bir (bird)
dadda
daddy
dad
momma
nu (no)
cacker (cracker)
ba (ball)
when you tell her k lets go nigh night Madi she walks straight to her room no fuss or anything!! If you just hand her her bottle off she goes!! Sometimes when she is really tired she will go in there and whine and yell at her crib or she will grab your hand and take you in there and try to climb into her crib. I'm sure there are other words I'm missing I'll add then as I remember!!!

We seriously had such a blast in Michigan we didn't want to go home!! It was so green and beautiful. Utah looks so ugly to us now!! It is just desert and dry and nothing to look at!! Oh well... I was happy to have my own bed back (no offense Rachelle I loved your bed!!) The only problem was Brett and I are no longer used to sleeping on a queen size mattress. Plus we had to sleep with Madison in our room which was okay the first part of the week and then out of no where she would start screaming and crying and freaking out and we couldn't figure out why!! We think it is cause her top molars are trying to break through.... She had a blast with all of her cousins and kept running after them and stuff. She took way long naps and by the time 8pm rolled around she would pass out!! Well the first part of the week. Anyway I thought I would share some pictures!!

Surprise!!!!!!

Okay so I have been waiting a little while to say anything cause we were waiting until we went back to Michigan so that we could tell Brett's family!!! We are due December 3!!!! So as of right now I am 13 weeks pregnant!!!! We are so excited!!! Especially because this time around it didn't take us over a year it took us half the time!!! I started out wanting to take the slow boat to China getting pregnant cause I was in no rush. Then I thought about how long it took last time and decided that I am ready and if we got pregnant fast it would be a blessing and if it took us a while again then it was another trial we needed to go through. So after a few months on some medicine I decided to start Chlomid and on our 2nd round I found out that we were pregnant!! I was surprised!! So was Brett!! I sat there and stared at that stupid test forever. It was one of those that actually says pregnant or not pregnant. I couldn't believe my eyes and neither could Brett it was amazing!!!! Brett was so cute and that night went to the store to get more pregnany tests to make sure that the one was not lying to us!! It wasn't lying!! So this test is number 2 or 3. I'm sure Brett is very happy because Chomid makes me a beast but who knows if you ask him he may like be better on Chlomid then pregnant!!! haha!!! This pregnancy has all ready been a TON better then the last!!! With Madi I constantly had Migraines and stuff but this time around I have only had 2 migraines and not thrown up once!! Knock on wood!!! I am so extremely tired though!! With Madi I slept all the time but this time around I have a 1 year old to take care of so I don't have time to sleep!!! Well I gotta go just wanted to share our happy news!!!

What a day.......

Does anyone ever have those days where you feel if your head wasn't attached to your body you would lose it!?!? Well.... That was my day!!! We are leaving for Michigan tomorrow and I have been stressing out about getting my house ready getting Madi and myself packed and making sure I have everything I could possibly need on the trip!! yes I am an over packer ask my husband!!! Sometimes on trips I end up using his bag for some of my stuff!!! Poor guy!! All he needs though is a pair of jeans and a few shirts a pair of shoes which he wears and his toothbrush and he is good to go.... You should see my list!! I have a huge one!! Yes this trip I HAD to make a list because I am not only packing for myself I am packing for Madison too!!!! So I went out to lunch with my mom today so she could spend a little time with her grand baby before we go.. I know what you are thinking I see my mom a lot but that's the point my mom is going to miss her cause we are always around!! Either that or she will be taking a breath of fresh air!! haha!! Anyway after lunch I needed to run a couple of errands..... I only ended up doing one of them... partially because Madison needed another nap and I was being scatter brained!! So I finally get home I was on my cell phone got off my cell phone and POOF!!! It magically disappeared!! No joke from my car to my house it magically grew legs and ran away!! I have been searching for the past 30 minutes for it...... I can't find it..... I was waiting for an important call.... I guess I won't be getting it now!! Sorry....... Oh well... Soon Brett will be home from work and he will help me find it!! I swear if I didn't have such an amazing husband I would be lost some days!! Okay most days!!! I lose everything... I can call him and ask where it is and he just takes a guess and there it is!! Its a dang good thing he has a sense of humor.... He seems to find my airheadedness/stupidity pretty funny..... I'm sure if you sat down with him and asked him all the funny things I said and did you would be talking to him for days!!! I love my husband so much and glad he loves me ditziness and all!!! Maybe that's why he married me cause he knew there would never be a dull moment!!! lol!!! He is amazing and supportive and everything I could have asked for in a husband. Well I need to stop procrastinating I should be packing more or cleaning my house right now.... See ya!! There will hopefully be pictures and more when I get back!!!!
P.S. I found it.... Brett got home and we found it.... I looked in this place a billion times.... I even dumped it out... Yes it was in my diaper bag.... I told you I was scatter brained!!!
