2 Week Stats

2011-06-21T13:41:00.005-06:00

Logan had his 2 week appointment on Monday June 20th. I can't believe he is already 2 weeks. His stats were as follows...

Birth: Length-21 inches

Weight- 8lbs 11oz

2 week: Length- 22 inches- 87%

Weight- 9lbs 6 oz- 85%

I really love this little boy. He has been such a good baby. I'm sad he is growing so fast.

Happy Birth-Day Logan

2011-06-03T21:24:00.008-06:00

Friday June 3, 2011 started real early at 4:30 am we headed to the hospital. They got us all checked in then by 6:30 am they started the pitocin and the Doctor broke my water. By 7 am I was in labor.

With all my births I have tried to not have an epidural but with the pit the contractions are really intense and with my other 3 by the time I reach a 6 I ask for the epidural. Jadan it never worked and I delivered him without but was unprepared for it. So with this delivery Danny and I prepared and talked a lot about doing it without the epidural.

I got to a 6 and thought I'm close I can do it. By the time I was to a 8 I wasn't so sure I was going to make it. But I held off but by the time I was to a 10 and ready to push I thought I was crazy not to have and epidural. We had to wait for Dr. Dewey for about 15 min and they didn't want me to push because the baby was still to high. This is when Danny told me it was pretty funny to listen to me. But Danny and my Mom help me with the pain along with the wonderful nurse. Dewey finally showed up and told me to start pushing. After pushing 6 times it was 10:57am my little boy had made it here and I could hear him crying that is my favorite part about giving birth. He was such a cute little guy. We hadn't decided for sure what to name him yet. But after seeing him Dan and I looked at each other and said Logan. So Logan it was. They took him over and weighed him he was a good size baby 8lbs 11oz and measured him 21in long. He was a strong healthy baby.

I'm so thankful to my Heavenly Father for sending my this little boy I know he was meant to be part of our family.

Christmas Jammies

2010-12-25T11:49:00.001-07:00

This year I was thankful for our Christmas Jammie because Jadan and I need them all day to try to get feeling better. Poor Jadan sick on Birthday and Christmas.

Brooklynn and Jadan have a Birthday

2010-12-21T10:51:00.001-07:00

Wow can you believe that my baby turned 4 and my other baby turn 6! I'm so blessed to have these sweet spirits in my life.Brooklynn had a sleepover with her Rylee and Savanna and they got to go to Church with here on her birthday.

Brooklynn is so smart and fun to be around. She can write her name and enjoys doing it on my walls :) We are working on that. She goes to preschool at Grandma's and loves it. She knows her ABC's and how to count to 14. She loves to dance and sing. Sadly she has my singing voice but I let her sing anyways. She is a great little sister and loves her older brothers. She is so sweet and loves to tell you I love you Mommy and Daddy about 30 times a day. We love this girl.

Jadan is such a joy. When he smiles your heart melts. He is in Kindergarten and love his teacher Miss Miller. He know all his ABC's and there sounds. He is a friend to everyone and wishes they would all be his friend. He loves primary and thinks he has the best teacher ever. ( I would agree she is such a blessing to bad the year is almost over.) He is in karate which he loves. I love it because it is helping him with some of his problems.

Sadly I have no pictures of Jadan's Birthday he was so sick and so was I.

2010-07-12T08:52:00.003-06:00

Poor Jadan was playing out side when all the sudden he came in screaming. It took Danny and I some time to find out why he was screaming. He had bugged a wasp nest and got stung 4 or 5 times. One right on his lip. Can I say ouch! His lip looked so sore. He was so strong about it and only screamed and cried for a little bit.

Happy Birthday Jadan

2009-12-21T10:05:00.002-07:00

My little guy turned 5 today and had his first Birthday party. We had the party at Grandma's house so we could invite his friends from preschool. He had tons of fun.

I'm so thankful that my Heavenly Father sent me this very special boy that makes me laugh everyday. He is so funny he like to say I'm so funny. His favorite things are Damwichs (sandwiches), Lighting Mcqueen, and playing on his bike. He has learned so much this year how to count to 6, all his colors, how to cut, how to write his J, and trace on a line. He is growing way to fast some times I wish you could slow them down and get to enjoy them a little longer. I love you my little brown eye toad! Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday Brooklynn

2009-12-05T09:52:00.000-07:00

Wow where does the time go? My little girl turned 3 today! She is such a joy I'm so thankful Heavenly Father sent her to me. One of my favorite things she does is tell me she loves me all day wrong (long) then she gives me a hug and a kiss. It's a good thing she does that it helps me get over the times when she is not so cute! This year she started preschool at Grandmas, Her favorite color is pink, she loves her brothers, loves playing mom and dad when she can get her brothers to play, and can walk on her toes. Happy Birthday Brooklynn!

Fall

2009-10-05T13:22:00.006-06:00

We took a trip up the Nebo loop during conference I find my kids listen to conference better in the car then at home. We loved seeing the fall leaves, the cows, and the river. This time of year is when the Mountains look the best. What a wonderful Sunday afternoon.

Cameron took the picture above and below. He does a pretty good job :)

Bucket swings

2009-09-19T18:03:00.005-06:00

I walked out back and found my kids doing this with all of Danny's empty paint buckets. I'm sure it was my cute neighbor girl that came up with the idea she never seems to surprise me with what she comes up with to have fun.

Onion Days

Cameron is excited about the snake and being a first grader.

Brooklynn's new LOOK!

2009-08-16T16:11:00.004-06:00

I finally did it after 2 1/2 years I cut her hair. Not a little off but about 7 inches! I was sacred at first but I love her new look.

I forgot my camera so no pictures of her first hair cut and I didn't save any of the hair. Danny told me that is what happens to the baby of the family. But here is a picture of her before and after!Before

After

July

2009-08-11T09:57:00.003-06:00

July was a crazy month for our family. I started getting sick the end of June and by July 4th I was real sick. I went to work the morning of July 4th and after work I went home and was in bed freezing. I had a fever and couldn't get warm. I stayed sick for 3 weeks after that. Danny had to do Mom and Dad stuff and when he couldn't be Mom my Mom and sister became Mom to my kids. I was to sick to take care of them. The Dr's couldn't seem to find out what was wrong other then a UTI. I'm finally doing better but I am sad because I missed out on my kids lives for 3 weeks. The boys had swim lessons I have no pictures and the family doing 4th of July and 24th of July stuff I have no pictures. Danny did take a couple of pictures of the kids playing downtown at Provo's freedom festival (just don't look how they are dress Danny was being mom!) Here is hoping Aug. is a better month for us!

Cameron's T-Ball

2009-08-11T09:37:00.004-06:00

Cameron Played T-ball for the first time this year. I'm sure if he liked it that much. He sure gave us a laugh. When he played catcher instead of catching the ball he would fill his mitt with grass. When he was in the out field he would eat his mitt. When he was up to hit he would take forever to hit. Maybe next year he will grow to like it better. As his mom I just think he look cute dressed up in the baseball stuff!

Golding Family Reunion

2009-06-29T09:46:00.010-06:00

This past weekend we had our annual Golding Family reunion. This year they went camping up Hobble Creek. We didn't want to stay over night this year so we day camped. I liked this better because I got to have a shower every day and I was able to clean my kids up. Which was import because they got so dirty!

We had a fun spending time with my Mom's family. I love when I get to see the Goldings.

We went swimming, played games, roasted marshmallows, and just had fun catching up with each other. Brooklynn loved spending time with Kevin's family. I think Jacob and Jamie might of got tired of her because she loves her Jacob!

Here are some pictures of the crazy bunch! Sorry about the video at the end I was laughing so hard!

Stars

2009-06-29T09:35:00.004-06:00

We got a new toy this summer and the kids wanted to sleep under it. I wasn't to sure about it but growing up we slept under the stars all the time. So I let them, but they are to young to do it without Mom or Dad. Danny said he had a bed inside so I got to sleep with them under the stars. We had a lot of fun. The next morning Cameron asked if we could do it again tonight. I said maybe in a week or so. My back could only handle one night a week.

Graduation time

2009-05-31T10:02:00.012-06:00

It was Graduation time in our family this past week. Cameron from Kindergarten and Jadan from his first year at Hidden Treasures Preschool or should I say Grandma's preschool. I'm so proud of my little boys they are growing up so fast and learning so much. Cameron can now read, do simple math, write his name, and write all his ABC's and 123's up to 10! Jadan can write his J, knows most of his colors, can count to 3 but what I most proud of with him this year is I can almost understand everything he tells me and others. Way to go boys!

Here is a slide show Cameron's Teacher made. Jadan has one from each of his preschools but they are to large of a file. I'm so thankful for the time the teachers took make these for the boys.

What a great looking Boy.

Cameron's class preforming at the graduation. Cameron hates to preform in fact instead of singing he ate his tie and yawned. I'm still a proud mom!

Getting his Diploma
Proud GrandparentsCameron and His wonderful teacher Miss Miller. We will miss her!

I'm have to admit that I'm forgot my camera for Jadan's Graduation I will post pictures later of him when Aunt Heather E-mails me a copy! Put I wanted to show you the wonderful book that Miss Carol aka Grandma made for all her preschool kids. What great love she has for them. I'm glad Jadan gets to go to Grandma's school.

Way to go boys Mom and Dad are so proud of you!

Cute Brothers

2009-05-31T09:51:00.003-06:00

I Just love when you walk in on your kids getting along and helping each other out. These 2 are becoming such good friends. Cameron really is a great older brother he looks out for Jadan.

Jadan Did It!

2009-05-11T07:49:00.003-06:00

So I ran over another bike. I wish I could teach my kids that they can't leave the bikes behind my car. The bike was ok but the training wheels didn't survive! I guess that meant that it was time to teach Jadan how to ride his bike without them. We started on wed and I thought this is not going to work, he is not ready, he is only 4. But Cameron and Jadan worked on it together for the next couple of days and now Jadan is a pro! Thank you Cameron for being such a great big brother and way to go Jadan!

And Brooklynn couldn't let her brother out do her so she learned how to pedal her bike this week!

Way to go my little one!

Jessica this is for you!

2009-04-20T11:17:00.003-06:00

Aunt Jessica was sad to not see Cameron in the Easter post. I should of taken a picture of him in bed sick. So here you go Jessica just a week later!

Easter

2009-04-13T10:28:00.006-06:00

Brooklynn did not want her picture taken just ask Mackenzie and My neighbor Cindy

Finally I got her to smile but you can tell she has been crying!Jadan showing Colton his sucker- I think colton was just trying to get Jadan to give it to him!

We had a good Easter. We had to miss egg hunts this year because Cameron was running a fever all weekend. He was a sick little guy. This was sad because he was sick on Christmas too!

So Saturday we just stayed home and watched movies. Except Danny and he went skiing.

On Sunday morning the bunny came and gave the kids New church cloths and some candy!

After that we were able to go to church. Aunt Kenny and Colton came and went to church with us. I was able to teach primary this week which was a blessing the kids teach me more then I think I teach them! After Church we went to my parents house. It was not only Easter but my Mom's Birthday. Happy Birthday Mom I love you more then I could tell you. You're my hero you're the best Women, Grandma, Mom, and friend in this world. I love being your daughter.

After my parents we went to Carolyn's house for great dinner and family time with the Bird's. I do have great in-laws.

Cameron was still sick and didn't do much but sleep all day. He went with us to My Parents and Carolyn's house but didn't do anything but sleep.

Thank you to our families for the great Easter.

Easter

2009-04-13T09:26:00.004-06:00

I 'm so thankful for Easter holiday for reminding me of the great sacrifice that Jesus Christ made for My family and me. We are so lucky to have had General Conference last weekend followed by Easter. It gives us time to grow closer to him and gain a better testimony.
I'm so grateful for the Savior and all his love for me. I'm so grateful to be a member of church and the blessings and trail it gives me. I know that he loves me and is there for me if I ask and do the things I need to in my life. I'm so grateful for the wonderful ward that I attend and the wonderful sisters in the ward. I could not ask for a better ward. I'm thankful for the scripture that I can feel close to him if I spend time reading them. I'm thankful for prayer and knows that he will listen to me and answer my prayers. This year I've learned how grateful I am for the temple and the blessings of the temple and only hope that one day my family will be able to be an Eternal Family. I love the Savior.

Cameron

2009-04-07T09:39:00.010-06:00

Happy Birthday my special guy!

It's is so hard for your Mom to believe that it has been 6yrs. It seems like just yesterday that the doctor placed you in my arms. I thank my Heavenly Father daily for giving me you.

I'm so amazed how much you have learned this year. How to read, do simple math, and how to care more for others. Daily you amaze me with things you know. You're doing such a great job in kindergarten.

I love how sweet you are. I love the jump hugs you give Dad and me. I love watching you gain a testimony of the Church. Cameron say close to the church it will bring you great joy as you grow.

I enjoyed watching you play soccer this past year, learning to swim, and climbing everything possible my little spider cam!

You're a wonderful bother that loves his little brother and sister. They love you and look up to you. I love the example you are to them ( most of the time) Please keep that up.

Dad and Mom Love you! Happy 6th Birthday!!!

2009-03-17T16:05:00.003-06:00

2009-03-09T14:27:00.006-06:00

Cameron got a camera from his Grandma that didn't work real good but Cameron has loved taking pictures with it and some of them are not to bad!

What we been up to!

2009-03-09T10:46:00.004-06:00

Here is what the birds have been up to the past couple of months!
I started back to work a couple days a week due to the painting business being slow. I hope that things pick up because life in our house is not easy with me working. I'm sure we will get use to it and life will get easier. Danny gets to help with the kids a little more he has learned schedules, how to do homework, and cook dinner (I think the kids eat a lot of Mac and Cheese!!) But he is doing a great job and the kids love spending more time with dad.

Cameron was Student of the Month in January way to go buddy!

We had to buy a new computer after Pc laptops couldn't seem to fix out laptop don't even ask me about that. It makes me real mad lets just say don't buy a computer from them! I'm just glad to have a computer back after 3 months of not having one. Thanks mom for letting me use your computer.

My cute niece got married. Welcome to the family Ethan! We love you Mandi.

Sorry Scott I had to post the picture of you wearing Brooklynn's flower you look great :) Jadan and Brooklynn loved the food. Cameron can we ever get you to smile in a picture????? We really enjoyed spending time with family that we haven't seen in a long time. I still can't believe she is married I remember when she was 5 and I took her everywhere.

I got another calling at church! Assistant girls camp leader. I'm looking forward to going back to camp after 1o+ years. Wish me luck :)
Not much more has been going on with us birds - the kids have just been kids!

Painting

2009-01-09T10:39:00.000-07:00

So I finally got Danny to paint my front room and kitchen. I love it! But look what we lived in for 3 days.

I still think that it was worth it! Thanks honey!!! :)

Christmas 2008

2008-12-28T15:33:00.005-07:00

This year was a great Christmas. On Christmas Eve we made cookies for Santa. The hole time we were making the cookies Brooklynn kept saying "Santa coming to our home." She said it about 30 times. Danny and I just thought she was excited. We later found out that was not the case when we were up all night with her. She got up about 5 times crying and when we went in her room she told us that she was scared that Santa was going to get her. After making cookies we watched a movie together and then read the Christmas story. I love that our family is getting old enough to start making traditions. The kids went to bed and Danny and I had fun spending time together waiting for them to fall asleep. The next morning the kids got up. Poor Cameron still was sick and didn't really get to enjoy Christmas morning. He had a double ear infection. He spent most the day in bed except for when the drugs made him feel better. We got to see what Santa brought the kids. Then Had a very yummy Breakfast. At Breakfast Jadan had us all laughing. We had eggs over easy and when Jadan made the yoke come out he started crying that his egg had a hole in it. You had to be there but we laughed and laughed. After breakfast we opened presents. We let the kids play ( that includes Danny he loved Cameron's gift form Santa.) After playing we headed over to Carolyn's house where we enjoyed spending time with Danny's family. Then after that we went to Autumn's house where we got to enjoy time with my family. Lets just say we are partied out but loved spending time with our family.
On the 26th we went to Temple square to enjoy the lights. The kids favorite part of the trip was the trax ride up. My Dad's favorite part of the trip was the two flat tires on the way home with a added bounce of a ride in the tow truck! Ok that wasn't his favorite part but did it ever add to our evening. Watch out for the pot holes by Lehi!!!!
On the 27th we went Sledding with the Goldings. This was so fun. The kids loved going down the hill. We could not get Jadan to stop sledding. The min. he got up the hill, down he went again. Today is Sunday and I am taking a break from doing anything but relax. I'm thankful for this time of year when we get to spend time with family and take time to get closer to our Heavenly Father. I hope we have a wonderful 2009!

My Baby Boy

2008-12-21T13:12:00.005-07:00

Wow Jadan Is 4 today! He is such a special boy with a big heart. I just love him dearly. He has grown up so much this past year. He is finally talking and his sense of humor is starting to show. You think he looks just like his Daddy he also has his dad's sense of humor. He looks up to Cameron and wants to do everything he does. He loves to do draw and read books with Mommy. He loves Spiderman and Lighting McQueen. He loves to learn and go to school. He goes to Grandma's Preschool which he just loves and His other preschool is fun because he gets to ride the bus there. I love you my little brown eyed boy! Happy Birthday!

Snow Dogs

2008-12-19T18:48:00.008-07:00

Finally we are able to put Max to work doing what he was made to do! He is now over 100 pounds and able to pull all 3 kids with no stress. At one point we had the two boys and the two neighbor boys on and he was able to pull them. The kids love this and every time it snows they beg Danny to take them sledding with Max. We had to retired Sandee she is just getting to old to help pull. She runs in front of Max and is helping us train him better, we started last year when he was just a puppy and not big enough to do pull them on his own.

We also loved just playing in the snow when Max was tired of pulling the kids. Brooklynn was really enjoying having the boys pull her! What a little Diva!

Cameron built a cave!

We all had fun! Even I played in the snow and I really dislike being cold! I think I'm getting old!!!!!

My little helpers!

2008-12-19T18:31:00.003-07:00

I'm so thankful for my two little helpers. They made my task of making neighbor gifts real easy. This is the first year that I have had Danny's help doing Christmas stuff. In years past he has been real busy painting. But you know that painting has slowed up just like everything else. Brooklynn was so cute helping Danny glue and laminate. I couldn't cut fast enough for her. What fun the three of us had while the boys were at school.

Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer

2008-12-09T19:23:00.006-07:00

The kids and I decided to make Rudolph tonight. All we needed was 3 cute kids, 6 feet, 6 hands, paper, glue, and some red glitter. With all these supplies we had a great time and made some real cute Reindeer.

My Baby Girl

2008-12-05T10:11:00.006-07:00

So today my little girl turned 2. I can't believe that I have had this special blessing in my life for 2 years now. She is full of life. She keeps me going. Getting into my makeup and just about anything she can get her hands on. She is a very messy child but we love her for that! She loves he daddy or should I say Danny because that is what she calls him. She loves to sing who let the doggy out. She loves her brothers. She is also a little mom to every baby she sees I guess she is all girl in that area. I'm so thankful to my Heavenly Father for sending me Brooklynn 2 years ago. She is one of my greatest blessings. She has touched my life in so many ways.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BROOKLYNN!

Her makeup job!

Playing Mom and dad with Jadan

Messy face!

A Dog, a Cat and A Hamster!

2008-11-27T09:41:00.002-07:00

On Wednesday we decide we needed to keep our kids entertain. So we went to an early movie. We went to Bolt. I wasn't to sure about seeing this because I can't stand Miley Cyrus but I like John Travolta so I was ok seeing it. I know it's only the voice of them but still Miley! I ended up loving the movie. When we got in the movie house Spencer told us we had to go all the way to the top seats. It was a good thing because Grandma spilled the popcorn and Brooklynn spilled the drink. So by the time we left it look like we had been there with 9 little kids and a Grandma. So go see Bolt it's cute.
Sorry about the picture it is with my Cell phone.

Family Pictures

2008-11-10T09:38:00.003-07:00

We took family pictures back in August but I'm just getting around to posting them. They turn out ok if you don't look at me!

My Little Family

Brooklynn 1, Mom 30, Dad 34, Jadan 3 , Cameron 5

My Mom and Dad boy do I love them!

The crazy Pitcher bunch!

Lets see if I can spell everyones name right and name everyone! Heather, Jared, Savanna, Jessica, Robby, Spencer, Colton, Mackenzie, Jaxon, KayLee, Nate Melaya, Grandma, Grandpa, Danny, Spencer, Olya, Autumn, Rylee, Brooklynn, CaraDee, Jadan, and Cameron.

Halloween

2008-10-31T08:25:00.000-06:00

We had a great Halloween. We started the day by going to Cameron's school. Were he had a parade and a party. Brooklynn went with me and was scared of Cameron's teachers costume. After, we went to Jadan's preschool (Grandma's) We got to see baby Colton dressed as pumpkin. So Cute! We went a visited Aunt Rhonda then headed home and did some trick or treating. I think we covered everyone in the ward. Jaxon and Savanna joined us in this fun and I loved watching little Savanna trick or treat. As we were trick or treating someone told Cameron that he was a Bird kid Cameron said "no I'm Iron Man" I had to laugh. If you asked Brooklynn and Jadan what they dressed up as Brookie would tell you a witch but it sounded like a bitch ( oops!) and Jadan would tell you a crow because he couldn't say scarecrow. We sure had a great Halloween.

My Clown

2008-10-29T18:30:00.000-06:00

At Jadan's favorite preschool they made Clown costumes which Jadan just loved. He is such a fun boy with such a fun spirit about him. He told me that he was going to be a clown for Halloween instead of a crow.

Spider Cookies

2008-10-25T17:51:00.005-06:00

The kids and I made spider cookies- Just for fun! Cameron was so excited to make his that he didn't want to eat it. He asked me if he could eat mine instead. ( I had to let him of course!) All the kids spiders turn out cute. Cameron eating my cookie!Jadan what a ham- I used my phone to take the picture and Jadan just can't hold still so the picture didn't turn out. Oh Well! Still a cute boy!

Brooklynn with the cookie all over her. But when does she eat that the food is not all over her? What a doll I have have.

My Monkey

2008-10-23T18:36:00.000-06:00

I really wish I could keep Cameron out of the trees. When we go to Grandma and Grandpa Pitcher's house he tries to climb every tree. I think he can climb every tree. It would be ok if he would stay low but he climbs up high. I just hope the next thing I take him to the doctor for will not be a broken arm.

Red Ribbon Week

2008-10-22T18:17:00.000-06:00

Cameron's school had red ribbon week- Say No To Drugs! He had such a fun time. Monday they had to wear red, Tuesday they got to wear Pj's to school, Wednesday they had crazy sock day, and Thursday they had crazy hair day. This was Cameron's favorite day. He made me take pictures of his hair. He said he looked like a fish. What a great school my kids get to go to.

Only one Month!

2008-10-21T13:48:00.003-06:00

So there is only one more month until Twilight the movie comes out. I can't wait to see it. I hope they did a good job, sometime when they make a book into a movie they get it all wrong. I not sure about who they picked as Edward. When you're reading the book I think you make up the characters in your mind and my Edward is nothing like Robert Pattinson. Maybe I'm getting old but I pictured him looking a little older. My Cousin Staci had the perfect Edward picked out. If I could remember his name I would post a picture of him. So one month to go girls!

Our trip to the Red Barn

2008-10-18T10:24:00.005-06:00

The kids and I decided that we wanted to take the Pither family to the Red Barn. So we called them and we all went to Red Barn. The kids loved the hayride, I enjoyed it because we went just as the sun was going down which made for a pretty ride. We all had fun picking a pumpkin. Cameron had a swollen face from his fight with the door so the pictures of him don't look like him but he did find the perfect pumpkin. He was looking for one that was bigger then him. I told him he could only get one that he could carry so he tried all the big ones until he could carry it. Jadan was looking for one that was cute, he found one that was cute. Brooklynn loved hunting for a pumpkin. Danny and her looked for a long time but they found one. She can still tell you which pumpkin is hers on our porch and we have 10 on the porch. Danny and I enjoyed spending time with our little pumpkins I think Heavenly Father sent the perfect pumpkins to us. The rest of the Pitcher bunch had great fun and found the perfect pumpkin for them.

Cameron was Tagged

2008-10-14T10:54:00.006-06:00

Okay, so now there's a game of kiddie tag going. Cameron was tagged, so here are 5 fun things you may or may not know about Cameron.

#1 By the time Cameron was 2 1/2 he could tell you every Thomas the Train name and color. This is how he learned his colors. He would play with the trains almost all the time when he was not playing with them he would be watching the show on TV. ( I'm glad he out grew that show!!!!)

#2 When Cameron was born the Doctor Called him a Cute Girl about 3 times finally the nurse said um Doctor Dewey I think that baby is a boy. Danny had already whispered to me that he was not a girl. I think that the doctor was very tired it had been a long night for him with several babies born. ( Tell me he looks like a girl!)

#3 Cameron is a dare devil- He loves to try new things. He scares me half the time. I think he gets that from his Dad.

#4 He can climb just about anything and loves to do it. He is all boy. He climbs my walls, door frames, anything that is up high. ( I guess this is why he just had to get his head stapled up-but he was just walking when that happened???)

#5 He is my sweet heart. He always has a jump hug for mom and tells me he loves me. I think he is mommies boy. He is so cute with his little sister. She thinks he is King of the world. He always take Jadan with him when he goes to play. He is my sweetheart and a pretty good older brother.

k so now I tag-
Chance W.
Spencer B.
KayLee H.
Lilly A.
Colton P.

Watch Out For That Door!

2008-10-04T17:30:00.004-06:00

So I got a call on Friday morning from Cameron's school. The lady on the phone said that I might want to come to the school and get Cameron because he had cut his head.

When I got to the school I couldn't believe how bad he had cut it. The nurse said that he was on the way out to recess and tripped and hit the door. OUCH!!!!

When I got home I went to my very wonderful friends and asked if I should take him in for stitches. After a little bit we all agreed that it need to be looked at by the doctor. When I took him in and the wound was cleaned out I was glad I took him to the doctor. This is how it looked! OUCH!!!

This is the 9 Staples he got! OUCH!!! As he was getting his he numbed he told the doctor that he hated him about 10 times and to please stop your hurting me. This made me cry I hate when my baby is hurting!

This is his swollen head-OUCH!!!

This is my not so happy little boy!

I hope this will be the last time I have to take any of my kids in for staples! OUCH!!!

My Hero

2008-09-29T18:56:00.008-06:00

I Really love my Mom. She is my lifesaver almost daily. She is always there for me. I know she is close to my Heavenly Father because she always know when I need her and what to say. This past year has been really hard for me and every time I turn around she is telling me it will be ok, or helping me with my kids. You name it she is there. I often wonder why I got sent down to such a special family with a wonderful Mom. I hope I can learn to be as good as a mom as she is.
So the Saturday night she asked all of us girls to go with her to Women's Conference. I'm very grateful that she did. I loved spending time with her and my little sisters ( I missed Jessica- it's not the same without her). But I needed the talks that the sisters shared in Conference . I felt the spirit so strong. I loved that President Uchtdorf reminded me that I do have talents. I know that sometimes I think that I'm not very talented compared to my family and friends. I left that night with new goals and felt better about myself.
I thankful to my Heavenly Father for my HERO MY MOM!

My Dancing B Monster

2008-09-29T13:37:00.004-06:00

I was out buying stuff for our wards Ghouls Night Out. My kids were done by the 4th store. So I told them we would go to the dollar store and get a toy if they stayed with me and didn't touch anything. Well at the $1 store the boys got guns and Brooklynn got shoes, skirt, and wings. When we got home she but them on and started dancing. It was so cute! What a girl. When she does cute things like that how could I call her my little B Monster?

I've been Tagged by Aimee Stevenson

2008-09-20T21:35:00.003-06:00

The Rules:-Link the Person who Tagged you- Mention rules on your blog- Tell about 6 quirks of yours- Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same- Leave a comment to let them know.

Quirk #1 - I hate stickers! I have a hard time buying new clothing because they have the inspected by sticker in them. I have to check them 4 or 5 times before I wear them. Same with my kids clothing. I also hate when my kids teachers send sticker home with them. I know I need to get over that one.

Quirk #2-I have a gazillion (well, almost) pairs of shoes in my closet, yet I always find myself wearing the same few pairs over and over.

Quirk #3- I can never do anything simple. I have to go the extra mile which is a huge STRESS in my life.

Quirk #4- I can't go a week without talking to my Mom or Sisters at least once. I must know what is going on with them. I have to visit my parents at least once a week most of the time more then that!

Quirk #5- I am a total worrywart. Danny thinks that I just need to relax and let things go. I worry about everything. Stupid things like a snake being in my bed.

Quirk #6- I have to take a bath at night and morning because when you sleep you sweat. Danny thinks I have a lot of Monk in me. ( You have to watch the TV show Monk to understand that.)

Now I'm going to tag the few people I know that blog- Mom, Mackenzie, Loralee, Kim, Cindy, and Jessica. I think that is everyone that I know that blogs!

Mommy is Sick

2008-09-17T08:08:00.003-06:00

So over the weekend I was sick with the stomach flu- Danny had kid duty. I walked out on them playing-I'm not sure what they were playing put they we laughing like crazy. They had pillow cases on there heads and chasing each other. I was worried they would run into a wall. Danny told me not to worry they could see. I think they were ghost! It was funny watching Danny try to entertain the kids. What A great DAD!

Trying to Cook!

2008-09-17T07:55:00.003-06:00

So anyone that really knows me knows that I don't COOK! My poor husband and children need me to learn how. So the other night I was trying to make meatballs for dinner because Danny said he wanted them with spaghetti. I thought how hard could they be. So I started making them and Jadan said Mom I'll help you make them be yummy. So I helped him wash his hands and he helped me mix. Danny said we need a picture of this Mommy is cooking guys. Well he grabbed the camera I thought it was a cut picture of Jadan helping me cook. Did the meatballs work out????? NO! I think I know what I did wrong I'll have to try again some other time.

Rain, Rain, Rain!

2008-09-10T10:50:00.004-06:00

It was raining yesterday. I really love the rain. I walked into the front room and found my kids watching the rain. It was so cute so I snapped a picture of them. When they saw me with the camera they told me they wanted something to do.

So we played a game-then I thought lets go puddle hopping!

This is my kids puddle hopping-I joined in of course-I'm sure my neighbourhood thought I was crazy.

Brooklynn was not sure if she liked being wet

When it was time to go in a rainbow appeared

The kids showing me how wet they got!

What a fun time we had playing in the rain!

Jadan's first day back to preschool

2008-09-04T10:34:00.001-06:00

Jadan gets to go on the bus to preschool. He thinks it is the best thing ever! I'm not so sure about it, but the school he goes 2 is helping with his speech. I can now understand him when he talks. I so proud of him.My little Danny!

Cameron's First Day of School

2008-08-28T11:05:00.002-06:00

Wow where has 5 years gone. My baby is going to Kindergarten. He was so excited to go. I was so scared to send my baby to school. Would the teacher treat him right, would kids make fun of him, would he make new friends, and what would I do without him? Well he is doing wonderful and loving every minute of it and I am doing fine after a few tears. Cameron Mom is so proud of you and wants you to love every experience that life brings you.

2008-08-23T11:26:00.000-06:00

My cousin Jamie invited us to come ride her horses at he parents house. We had so much fun. A bunch of us Goldings came and let our kids ride. Even some adults got on!

Jadan loved riding. We had a hard time keeping him off of it. When he was on them he would say giddy up horse.

My Cute Cameron

This is my kids hero. Not the horse-Jacob.

My wonderful Aunt Calleen made it on the horse!

Brooklynn was so cute she sat in front of the camera and said CHEESE!

Shirts for Pants

2008-08-03T10:46:00.000-06:00

The Boys decided that it would be funny when I asked them to get dressed to put their shirts on as pants. That came in just a laughing so I got my camera of course.

Fire! Fire! Fire!

2008-08-01T11:00:00.000-06:00

This is a fire by our house that we watched grow and grow. It was so close that we could smell it, hear it, and take pictures from our porch. Cameron loved watching it but Jadan was scared. He kept telling me huge fire 2 close to home.

The Birds Went North?

2008-07-30T11:10:00.001-06:00

What a weekend we had with the Bird family. I can't believe how much fun we had. We spent two days at Bear Lake then headed for Lagoon. Danny even had Mom doing things I had never seen her do before like riding seadoos and the white roller coaster at Lagoon. It was great spending time with the Birds!

My Cool Uncle Frank

2008-07-05T11:02:00.000-06:00

Cameron has been wanting to ride a Motorcycle forever. So on the 4th of July Uncle Frank had his Harley and Cameron asked if he could go for a ride. Of course Jadan wanted to go 2! They got to ride from Grandma bird's house to 7-11 to get a treat.

My New Family Member

2008-06-30T09:46:00.000-06:00

My Cute little Nephew has made it to the world. He came a month early but weighed almost 8lbs. They named him Colton Spencer Pranger he came to this world on June 27, 2008.

Here is Cameron holding Colton for the first time. He had a hard time with Aunt Kenny having a baby because he was Kenny and Spencer little boy, but I think he really loves Colton.

I love holding this new family member he reminds me of my two little boys so much.

Our Trip 2 Timp

2008-06-13T10:19:00.001-06:00

Danny Decided that we needed to take a trip up to Timp Caves. What was I thinking letting him talk me into this. I made it but it was a hike. Would I do it again anytime soon? I don't think so, but we did have fun as a family! You can't see the kids in this picture but Cameron and Jadan loved this arch on the way up. When we got to it Cameron said Mom look we made it to the Cave!Danny was so cute with Brooklynn. He held her little hand all the way up! Jadan needed almost as many breaks as Mommy did.This is us cheering that we made it to the cave! Can you believe it?
The boys in the cave.

Pictures of the cave. It was really neat inside. I'm glad we made it up!

I was so proud of Brooklynn, she walked all the way up and down at 1 1/2 years old! I had more trouble then she did at 30 years old.

My Family- We really had fun spending time together as a family. Even with the hard hike!
