Riding her bike!!



Kinley got a bike for Christmas and just learned how to ride it! Isn't she cute!!!

What a mess


Why must this happen every time he eats. What a mess. And this is mild.

Father's Day dose of reality

Poor Jeremy got a Father's Day dose of reality this year. On Mother's Day I like to take the day off. I sleep for hours and let Jeremy take care of everything. He gets to cook, change the diapers, clean up the messes and give the baths. This Father's Day poor Jeremy did not get the same luxury.

The day started with an early morning at the church to set up chairs. Then he returned home to help me get the kids ready. Both the kids were dresses they just needed shoes. Oh but wait...of course Ty needed a diaper change. He always waits till he has a fresh diaper on to poop. So Jeremy is changing Ty and the kid decided to pee all over the place, luckily he did not get Jeremy just all over himself. So it was a quick change for Ty then off to church.

The rest of the day was good. We got to eat some super yummy fish for lunch. The only downfall to that was the nasty smell in our house for days.

Round about 5 o'clock things changes. Kinley was eating dinner and had WAY to much in her mouth. Bring on the gagging followed by the throw up. Daddy had to clean her up while I cleaned the floor.

Later poor Ty had another problem. The boy is teething and has nasty diapers. You know the kind you can't really smell til you open them and then they smell like death. No one knew until he started crying and prancing around that he was poopy. I took him straight to the tub. His bum was burned so bad he wouldn't even sit down in the water. Jeremy had to come help me hold him so I could get him cleaned and medicated. Poor kids.

So sweet dose of reality. Got to deal with poop, pee and throw up on Father's Day. Daddy's never get a break!!

Crafty?!











Ok seriously what is with me and crafts? I don't do crafts. But for some reason lately I have LOVED them. A few days ago my kids and I made all these with the exception of the hair bow frame. I have had so much fun crafting!
All my kids helped with the cookies. Yummy! Snickerdoodle anyone? They were sooo good. Maybe cause they were made with so much love. My kids rock!!!
Kinley and I made the hair bows together. She loves them so much. Now I need to learn how to make the ones out of ribbon. Oh wow that will be a chore for me. But just like everything else I'm sure I will love them and end up making a ton.
I made the tiles with out any help. I need to get the ribbon on them so I can hang them in the kids' room. They were a lot of fun. I'm totally into mod podgeing lately.
The following day I also made hooded towels to auction at our family reunion. Wow what a busy beaver!! Let's see baking, mod podgeing, painting, and sewing.....who is this girl? Where has Suzanne gone?

Ty





This little man is my baby Ty. He is now 15 months old. We called him Baby Ty when he was first born but now it doesn't seem so appropriate. We have moved on to calling him Ty-Ty. Isn't it funny when someone has a single syllable name you give them a two syllable nickname. Crazy! Usually names are shortened.

Ty is my sweet cuddle bug. This little man loves hugs, kisses and cuddles. I LOVE it!!! The downfall to that is he has to be held to go to sleep and he does not like to share his Mommy with his sister. If Kinley climbs up on my lap he starts crying and runs over to me. Usually she has to share my lap with her little brother. Ty is a total Mommy's boy! It works out great...Ty is Mommy's boy and Kinley is Daddy's girl, Trav is old enough that he doesn't really need either of us.
Ty brings so much joy and laughter to our household. He is a funny boy. Everything makes him laugh. He also loves to dance. Kinley is the bootie shaker and Ty is the bootie bouncer!
He is ALL boy. He loves to make Kinley scream. He's also destructive, dirty, mean and loves to wrestle. He loves to play with rocks and bugs and play in dirt. Oh and did I mention he also likes to eat all those things. Yuck!! Yep, it's pretty gross but we still love him dearly.

Travis







This is Travis. He was part of a package deal when I married Jeremy. He was 7 when we got married and in 26 days he will be 13. That's right people I will have a teenager! Holy crap that makes a person feel old.
Trav is a special person. He came to live with us a few months after Kinley was born. About a year after living with us Jeremy got full costody. He is my son in every way. He was even sealed to Jeremy and I in the temple 2 years ago. He is a great brother to our little kids and a wonderful son to us. He is such a huge help to me. I don't know what I would do without him. I love you Trav!!!
