It's been a while...(sorry)

Wow...it has been a really long time since we have posted anything and I am truley sorry about that. 7 months is just too long.......

Let me go back in time a little....LOL...

Hollye & Brant were here for Easter. We had so much fun. All three kids (Holly, Brant & Dylan) got bikes. They were all excited. We always have a blast when they come see us. They are coming to visit again...YAY!! We get them for a month this time. We didnt get to see them at all last year for summer.. We are SUPER excited.

Dylan is playing T-Ball now. Bryan is the coach for his team. Bryan & Dylan are both really enjoying it, myself included. Its is just so neat to watch him learn....Dylan is also getting ready to start big boy school. (Kindergarten) I tink I will cry...LOL. It seems like just yesterday he was born. He is really excited about it though.

Ty, well he is growing at the speed of light...LOL. He is 9 months old now. He has started crawling.....watch out...LOL. The doctor wants us to have him on table food by the nexy check up which is his year appt. He has 6 teeth now....I just cant believe how fast he has grown. His 9 month check up he was 25lbs. SO CRAZY!

Bryan & I, we are doing great. We have moved into our new house and all of our bills are getting paid....YAY... My Mom & Step Dad were just here for a visit last weekend. We got to go to the Lake of the Ozarks.....we had a blast. It was our Mini Vacation. It is so beautiful out there. I would love to live right on the water....ok I am dreaming now...LOL

Well, Thats all for now. I will try to keep this a little more up to date from now on.

YAY Hollye and Brant are Coming!!!!

YAY the rest of our Family is finally going to be here....for a week anyways....We will be going to pick them up on the Saturday before Thanksgiving.

I am so excited, I finally get to see my daughter in a play. I always get to hear about them but never get to see them.

It has been way too long since I have seen them. The last time was over Easter. I am sure they have grown so much since then. They are really excited as well.

They cant wait to see their new brother and all of their cousins.

I truly have a reason to be thankful at Thanksgiving this year......

Here are some pics from last Thanksgiving......

Brant...... He was so sick last year

We cant wait to do it all again..................

Dylan's Birthday

We had Dylan's birthday party on Sunday. All the kids had so much fun. It was a little chilly and very windy. I need to remember that here in Missouri, you never know what the weather will be like at the end of October........LOL! I really need to plan these things a little better. But all that matters is the kids had a blast. Dylan was so happy that Grandma & grandpa, Aunt Chrissy and all the cousins , Uncle Bill and Aunt mary were there. It really meant a lot to him. He also had a few friends from school there. He told me it was his best birthday ever.........That made me feel good. Thats all I want is to make sure he some awesome memories to look back on when he gets older.

Here are some pictures from his party....

Trunk-or-Treat

Hello Everyone. On Friday night we got to go Trunk-or-Treating with all the cousins. It was at the cousins school. It is where a bunch of cars have their trunks decorated and the kids get to go around and trick or treat. It was a lot of fun. It was also Dylan's birthday and he told me it was the best. That made me feel really good. His "big" party is tomorrow at the park. He is so excited, he cant wait.
here are some pics of our Trunk-or-Treating experience.

Mommy & Dylan Time....

Hi everyone.... Well I have decided that I am going to dedicate 1 night a week to spend just with Dylan. He has recently started to get really jealous of his little brother. Monday, I was off work because of Columbus day and Dylan's school was closed so I got to stay home alone with both boys all day and Ty decided that he just wanted to stay awake all day so he kept me pretty busy. I tried to include Dylan in everything I was doing like, make his bottles and had him help me feed him by holding his bottle in Ty's mouth. That wasnt enough though. Dylan was figuring out that if he starts doing bad things he would get attention. So on Tuesday I decided to take him to the Mills (a local mall) to the NASCAR Speed Park. We had so much fun...... Here are a few pictures from our outing... Plus one of Bill's dog Liddy... she is too CUTE....

Ready set GO!!!!!

A Funny Story...

Well this is just too funny that I have to share it with everyone.

Last night when Ty started crying because he was hungry, Bryan went into the room to get him and Dylan looked up at Bryan and said "Dad, my little brother snorts like a pig."

When Ty gets really hungry he has a tendency to start snorting like a little piglet .... It is just too cute. Once the bottle is in his mouth he is ok again. LOL

I just wanted to share this with everyone. Hopefully I will have more pictures to post soon.

Dylan's Buddies Birthday Party

Well Dylan went to his buddies birthday pary yesterday. Oh my gosh...he had so much fun. We all had a good time. It was at Pizza Street out in Saint Peters. Here are some pictures......
