Why I started this darn thing in the first place.


I started this blog over a year ago...inspired by my SUPER CREATIVE and WITTY friend Abbie. Her blogs cracked me up and were so enjoyable to read. I wanted to have my own funny stories to tell, really...I did. You see...some of us are just NATURALLY funny. Abbie...that is you. You have my favorite blog on this site!(though I know you've had to take a break these last few months, understandbly so). I am afraid that I just don't feel like my blogs meet up to yours Abbie...which is okay:) I have now made this more of a family update sight, lol with an occasional funny story here and there. And truely, aren't everyone's blogs about their kids pretty much anyways? So I guess I am not to far off. I just want you all to know that my intentions are to be funny or whitty or creative. I am trying...really I am:)
Basically my life is consumed with my 3 year old boy Logan who wakes me up in the morning and says, mommy...it a BOOTiful day today(even when it's raining). He tells me everyday, Mommy...I love you...and I love you more!!! He dances like a rock star which I ADORE because I love to dance too and who can't dance how ever they please in front of a 3 year old. They don't care what you look like, LOL! Latley for breakfast he wants a juice and a string cheese....that is it. Doesn't sound very yummy to me but what the heck...at least it's kind of healthy:) His favorite things right now are the kittys at blue Gram's and he wants a kitty, a doggy, and a fishy. And he reminds me of this 30 times a day:) And in the bath the other night he was trying to stack some toys together and they fell over and he said, "Gosh Darn it." Not sure who he heard that from(ME). But I need to be careful what I say now, heehee. But it was pretty, gosh darn cute:)
Peyton consumes my other half...she is needy...a GOOD needy but needy non the less. She slept in our room for 5 months and 1 week. BUT now she has officially been her for four nights and is doing AWESOME! Logan wasn't in his own room til he was 1 so we are making more progress this time around, heehee. She LOVES greenbeans, bananas, and applesauce. It is so fun to be feeding her solids! I started early this time around, but little Pey Pey has been a head in everything else so far, why not start her early:) She looks super good in light pink and I always put bows on her! She is a sweet baby who is always smiling and giggles like CRAZY at her brother, daddy, and me. I just love it. Hope you all will be at PCBC sunday to see Peyton sporting her Bronco Cheerleading outfit. She is still cheering for them even though they didn't make the superbowl:)

I wish it would come and stay but that will be another day.......







We so enjoyed our nice weather. Peyton went to her first park that she actually go to enjoy. She LOVED the swing:) I will have to take Logan to more parks with swings this summer...yes...it is rare here in Tillamook:) My mom is so great with how she plays with Logan. She was sliding down the slide, and giving Logan underdoggys on the swing. I am so blessed that we live so close:)
My kids are doing lots of new things....Peyton is sitting up by herself and I know she can totally roll over on her own , she just hasn't yet. Logan is going to Awana every Wed. Afternoon and he loves it. Another huge thing that has happened for us is Logan can officially peddle. I worked with him ALL summer... and hard!!!!! And during Christmas him and Collin had snuck out to play outside and I look over at the basketball court at Mike and Debbie and low and behold...Logan was peddling!!! That goes to show...don't worry about your kids so much and when they will start to do things. Sometimes they will just figure it out on their own.
Anyways...Logan was peddling around our house on his TINY tricycle! He looked super funny because he is WAY to big for it. I mentioned to Sarah that we were going to buy Logan a bigger bike and she was like, I HAVE ONE:) So....Logan is sooooooo loving his new bike. THANK YOU AUNT SARAH!!! I am not sure where he got this idea but he asked mommy and daddy if when he started riding it better...if he could do jumps and make it fly in the sky:) TOOO funny:)

I never thought I would be a huge fan...........


When I first saw commericals for this product and what it was erasing and cleaning, I didn't believe it. There is no way that little pad can do that...no way. But now....I am confessing that I am in love with this product! One of the ladies we clean for had one...I thought, what the heck, I will give this "magical" cleaner a try! And people...it WORKS! This thing really rocks on soap scum and stains! I have yet to try it everywhere in the house but I am going to buy this and keep it under my sink at all times! I couldn't believe how awesome it was!!!

Just Makes my Heart Happy

I have experienced so many amazing things with having my second baby. I love being a mommy of two. Having both of my arms full is such a wonderful feeling. But I think my favorite part is watching Peyton look at Logan. Now, Peyton Loves me and she adores her daddy too...but when her little brother walks up to her, her eyes light up like I have never seen. Everytime, it gets better. Everytime, she looks at him with more and more love. He can make her laugh by just talking to her...she just adores Logan with everything in her. And Logan just adores her too. Watching my childern love each other has to be one of the best feelings that I have ever felt:)
