I have finally updated my blog! Having my computer down for 2 weeks makes for a lot of posts! There are like 5 new ones so scroll through them all :-) Plus remember to give me your e-mail cause we are going private some time soon!

MY HOUSE!!!

Welcome to my house.

It has been too cold outside to get a picture of the front so you will just have to come see me to see what outside looks like!! It took me so long to get these posted cause we didn't get the furniture until last week and then my computer died. Better late then never.

Living room...
Kitchen...Dining room with my new table...Master bedroom...Boys room...
I would have cleaned it but then you wouldn't have gotten the feel for the room!The girls room...
The "library"...Kids bath...

There are a few more rooms that weren't put together yet so you don't get to see those either. We are still working on hanging pictures, decorations on the wall, and I want to paint the kids rooms. We love our house! The boys fnally have enough (too much) space to roam and play. They actually go to the basement by themselves now and love their "fort" (toy closet under the stairs). Feel free to come and see us!

Bowling in Idaho

I took the girls to Idaho with me for the weekend and we had a great time. We missed Taylor and Braxton and every time Kam asked where they were it made me miss them even more!

We decided to head out on the big town Saturday and ended up at the bowling alley. We had a great time and love being home with everyone! Can't wait for the next trip home!Em, Mom, Grandma, and Maeley Kyler, Amber, and TayleeGrandma

Call and Aves fast asleep

My Aves as a boy

As soon as I got to Emily's to have my hair cut Aves blew out of her clothes! I didn't have time to run back home (cause I live so far away now) so we borrowed some of Kyler's PJ's. I wanted the picture because I have a picture of Brax when he was little in pink because of the same thing! If you didn't know any better you would think I had an awfully cute boy!

Bowling

Last Monday, the 18th, we took the kiddos bowling. It was a blast and the place was super nice and family friendly. It took us 75 minutes to play one round with all the kids! They all whopped Em, Sar, and I. We should have had the bumpers too :-)Waiting for the balls to come backTay and Ty helping Braxton bowl

The girls were great and slept the entire time we were out!

2 months old already

Time flies when you are having fun, or going crazy! These two girls have added so much joy into our home. We love them and can't believe how big they are getting. They had their 2 month check up a few weeks ago and both are doing great!

Avri Girl:

Head: 39 cm - 59%

Length: 23 inches - 76%

Weight: 10 lbs 11 oz - 48%

Aves is very impatient and a lot like Braxton in personality. I am in trouble!! She sleeps mostly through the night, waking up once or twice to get her binki back in her mouth. She goes to bed at 10:30 or 11 and gets up at 6:30 to eat and then sleeps until about 10. She has the prettiest blue eyes and the poutiest lips when she cries. It took about 6 weeks but she is wearing 0-3 months clothes and nearing 3-6 months clothes. She loves to eat and is very good at feeding herself. :-) She already has a few nicknames, Aves, Avri Girl, Baby Aves, Ave and my sister. The boys just love this girl and are always in her face. She has a sweet little smile and tries to talk.
This little girl is a true blessing and miracle in our lives!

Macallers

Head: 37.5 cm - 20%

Length: 22.25 inches - 47%

Weight: 9 lbs 3oz - 13%

Call is such an easy going baby, just like Taylor was. She sits and looks around at everything and doesn't want to miss a thing. She was like that in the NICU too! She opens her eyes wide and her eye brows go sky high! She is a great sleeper and loves to be held. She only likes the big ugly green binkis that we got from the hospital. Thank goodness they make them in purple and pink now! Since we keep the girls on the same schedule she eats when her sister eats! She also sleeps mostly through the night until she decides she wants her binki but for some reason she can't keep it in her mouth and usually whines for it for an hour before going back to bed. We have to get them out of our room!! She has dark blue eyes and brown hair. 0-3 month clothes are still a little big on her but she is growing into them. She also has a few nicknames, Callers, Callyers (the boys), Call, Mac, Macallers, girls friend. We do like our nicknames! The boys are once again always in her face and try to get her to smile. They love their sister!

Macall is a huge blessing and glad she came with her sister! I am not sure she would have come to our family other wise.

We love you girls!

Da Boys

Over the weekend I took the girls to Idaho and the boys stayed home with dad. As much as they drive me nuts some days I sure did miss the little guys!!!Brax
Tay We made pudding one night and they had to lick the whisks.
They are best buds and best enemies no matter what they are playing!You have heard of Where's Waldo but what about where's Braxton?My boys are the weirdest sleepers!
As we speak (or type) they are asleep in their closet again! Strange kids!!!

"Row, row the boat Mom!"

They are sitting on a suit case and using guns as paddles.

LOVE THEM!!!

Good news is that creepy took her blog off the Internet, bad news is I am still going private. With Justin's job and my small kids I think it is best! Until I make it private I will keep updating my blog so still keep a look out for a few more weeks :-)

My cute little Macall
Baby Aves

The boys love their sisters and are always asking to hold them

Sorry guys!

Hey! I have never wanted to go private but I have some creepo taking pictures and posts from my blog. She has now set her blog to be private so I can't see what exactly she took but I have had comments from a few other people that are in the same situation! I need e-mails and I guess this will have to do for a while. Hopefully I can get rid of her and open it back up but for now we are going private!!
(If you are a lurker please leave a comment and I would gladly add you to my list. Just explain who you are first :-) )

P.S. I HATE stupid people that ruin a good thing for others!

Computer down

The Wii

Today the boys wanted to play the Wii with Kamdon. I told them they had to pee on the potty before we could play so Brax took off his diaper and peed on the potty. It is so frustrating because he knows what to do he is just lazy and doesn't like underwear. I got some pull ups at Target so we will see if that will be better for him. Taylor still won't have anything to do with the potty. On our way home from target we picked Kam up to come and play. We played Mario Kart and Cars racing. Kind of funny watching 3 year olds playing video games. Kam is better than me :-)

Major Catchup

Over the past few weeks I have been getting things ready to move, cleaning, moving, more cleaning, and unpacking. I have neglected by blog and my readers that wait for me to post each day :-) Be ready to catch up because I am in catch up mode! Tay

Brax

The boys love their new room but even more they love their closet!! We find them hiding in there and today I found them sleeping in there. Silly boys!

We have been busy with the house lately that I haven't felt like blogging. I also started working on my blog books again and realized I haven't taken many pictures of Avri and Macall yet so I thought I would catch up a little today. Avri

Macall

The girls both hate these binki's and love the ugly green ones (that you get in the hospital). I really don't like the green ones and the other day at church I saw a little girl with one and it just was so ugly that I decided I would give them a try again today. Avri is doing good with hers but Macall just gags on it and won't keep it in her mouth. They are sweet little girls.

And of course my two trouble makers.

New Years Eve

We celebrated New Years with Holverson's and Browning's this year. I love having my family close again. We ate yummie food (of course) and had fun with poppers and sparklers. We celebrated a little early (9:00) and then everyone went home and we went to bed. I have never been a late night person but now with kids I am totally boring at night!! All the kiddos with Justin trying to get the sparklers going.Braxton liked his sparkler until it got too close to his hand and then it got hot.
Taylor was a little hesitant about his sparkler. I think he remembers being burned on the 4th of July. We had a great time and love partying with family.

Justin's aunts came to visit us over the holidays and Evelyn brought the boys these sticky window stars. They soon found that the stars could stick any where.

Something to remember

We were driving downtown the other day and the boys were jabbering back and forth to each other. I couldn't understand or hear much until this.
Braxton to Taylor: No, you are Mickey Mouse. I am Pete. (the big naughty kitty)

Taylor: Ok, I am Mickey Mouse.

Braxton: Yes, I am Pete.

Taylor: Mom is the duck (Donald).

Braxton: Daddy will be Goofy.

Love my kids!!!
