Sophie's Room

We are now ready for her to come...

Steve finished painting,
We got the carpets cleaned,
The crib is up,
and we have diapers, clean clothes & blankets.
I went to the doctor yesterday & anytime is safe for her to come now.
I was 80% effaced & dilated to a 2....I'm guessing she'll come some time at the end of April, but you never know.

I LOVE her room!!

Steve did a great job on the wood & paint!

This is the CUTEST quilt my sister-in-law Denette made for me.
She didn't even know my colors & it turned out perfect. We also did a bird theme & some of the fabric has little birds.

I modge-podged some wood letters to spell her name...

This is the crib & cute bird clock. I still have a few more things to do....I found the cutest dresser on KSL for $20.00 that I'll stain after she gets here.

Tyler thinks it's pretty "incredible" too!
This is pretty much what our "Dash" wears everyday now!

Happy Birthday, Steve!!

He kept telling everyone he was turning 25 this year....

The kids made him a birthday poster...

And were very excited to give him his present.

Steve was happy too!

But, I think they actually had more fun popping the packaging!
We had a fun birthday weekend...

Tyler will tell you that he got in a fight with a table at his dad's birthday dinner. He ended up with a nice black eye this morning!

HAPPY "25th" STEVE!!!
We Love You!!

Happy Birthday Tyler!!

April 4, 2007

Tyler was born at 4:44am
and today he turns...

FOUR!!

He has wanted to have a How To Train Your Dragon Cake for his birthday
ever since the movie came out....

He was SO excited that after he blew out the candles he said, "I love this!!"
Tyler was very spoiled by everyone!

He has known about this present for months! It was on clearance and he has waited VERY patiently for his birthday to come so he could finally have it!

Then for his birthday dinner, Zack informed us we had to go to Texas Roadhouse because they sing to you on the saddle. So we went with my parents, Alayna, Shelly & Jazzy!

Our 3 amigos!

Tyler cracks open his peanuts with a ketchup bottle every time we go there!

He learned this trick from his dad!


Me & My cute mom!

Then before bed, Tyler got to open his last gifts from his dad...

It was a big surprise!

It was a real "Incredibles" super suit!
He LOVES that movie & thinks he's Dash. He has been wearing a red t-shirt & red pants as Jammies every night. Now he has a "real" super hero suit!

He also got his own guitar. He has been fighting over Zack's & then Steve made him one out of cardboard, which finally ended the fights. Then he found this one on KSL for $10.00. As you can see by his smile he was very happy!!


We adore this crazy kid!
He brings a smile to our faces everyday... He makes us so happy! Today he kept saying, "Now that I'm grown up, I can do this & this & this.
We love you Tyler Man!!! Happy 4th Birthday!!

We have put our kids to work!

They have been helping Steve get Sophie's room ready.

Tyler, Zack & Steve

Tyler even put his hat on just like his dad!

Libby was a great help with sanding.

Even Mickey got in on the action.

Here was the first step...

Then Steve got up all the wood work & has started sanding, caulking & priming. This has turned into quite a time consuming job....but it's going to be SO cute when we are done!

I'm hoping we get all the painting done by next week...then comes the fun part of decorating!
I think my nesting face is kicking into high gear...clutter always drives me nuts, but it's really starting to drive me crazy! Our upstairs has been chaos for a few months now. We've moved Steve's office to the loft & the boys got bunk beds & wanted their room to have a space theme. So hopefully we'll have pictures of everything done soon!!

Iceskating fun...

Last Saturday, we took the kids ice skating for the first time...they LOVED it!

All ready to go...

Libby

Zack

Tyler

Steve's a good teacher!



Zack & Tyler getting used to it.

Libby did really good.



Zack did good too!

Tyler fell a few times...but would always say, "I'm alright!"

Best buds!

Tyler was super happy!





I love these guys!!
Now Libby REALLY wants to take lessons!

Libby's Lucky Day...

Each month at her orthodontics office they have a contest. Last month, Libby took a guess at how many M&M's she thought were in the jar. Then when we went to her appointment a few weeks ago she found out she won! Her prize was a $50.00 check!! She was SO excited. Libby decided to take the check and open a savings account...she is very excited that she even has an ATM card now! I'm glad she is learning how to save her money!!
