My family was in town...

Totally out of order but here is a cute picture of Ty in my mom's glasses.

My parents, sister Alina, and my brother Ryan and his wife Meghan and their two children Emma and Jake all came to Utah for the week for Danny's blessing and for some fun. We went night skiing up at Snowbird and the kids had a blast. Ty took to it like he's been doing it forever. "Move Dad!" Drew didn't even have to give him instructions... he just took off down the bunny hill and was ticked when he had to share the ski's with his cousins!
Alina leaned to snowboard.
Meghan and Jake... my camera died before I could get pictures of Jake skiing!
Emma was a little apprehensive... so after a talking to by uncle Drew... she did an awesome job and had a ton of fun.
One day we went up to Strawberry for a fun day of Snowmobiling... even little Danny came along... luckily it was warm and sunny so we didn't have to sit in the car the whole time.


The kids LOVED sledding


Me and my parents
Awesome Ty... he can't get enough of the fun stuff.
The four kids had a great week... Ty was so sad when they left.

Danny's Blessing

We blessed Danny on Sunday and Drew did a beautiful job of it. ...and he didn't change his name to Jimmer... I was a little nervous and very relieved when he said Danny Drew :) My parents and Alina as well as my brother Ryan and his family came out here from Cali and it was so great to have them here for the week as well as for the blessing. We had our small town home crammed with over 60 people... and had a great time with all our family and friends. Danny looked so handsome and grown up in his little white suit and it was a perfect way to spend Valentines Day.

My Boys

To be honest... the majority of the time Ty is just not interested in his little brother. "Go put "it" over there and play with me mom" is something I hear far to frequently. But... there are those sweet moments where he is so cute with Danny and just giggles with him and loves on him... I love it!

2 months old

Danny is 2 months old today and I can't believe how the time is flying. He is all smiles these days and has bee n such a good baby. I consider myself lucky to have had to easy babies to raise... toddlers are a different story :)

I feel great. Although I've been hitting the gym these last two weeks and it is much more difficult than I was expecting. My boobs hurt like crazy with all movement and my hips are still totally out of wack... so I can't work out as hard as I would like too. Sadly these last 20lbs are not coming off like the first 25. I still can't fit any of my jeans so I find myself still wearing my maternity pants and sweats... depressing. Hopefully I'll get there soon!! ...at least I have a cute little guy to show for all of this!

Say "Cheese"

I'm sure many of you have noticed Ty's funny eye... for some odd reason when the camera is on him he smiles and closes his left eye... we have no idea where this came from but it totally cracks me up. I have to take like ten pictures to try and get one with his eyes BOTH open... so funny. I got it on video... totally by accident I was trying to video how funny he is when you ask him what he wants for lunch... a better video of that may follow... but for now... enjoy!

7 Weeks Old

My good friend Sarah just moved back from Florida last week... yeah! So happy to have her close again. She is a great friend that I grew up with in Cali and she is a great photographer... you can go to her photo website on my side bar Smylie Photography... she took some photos of Ty when he was a few weeks old and she took these sweet photos of Danny. LOVE them... LOVE him.

My trouble maker Ty

Leave the room for two minutes and come back to find your two your old wearing nothing but his socks... on top of the counter... playing in the sink... he is always keeping us entertained... and now we are regretting getting those nice new bar stools!! :)
