Its hard to believe...

I live in sunny California. We've had a great start to our new year. My Mom, Heidi, Judd & family came to visit and of course go to Disneyland. (I still can't believe that I can go there whenever I want.) Tyler and Jace had so much fun with their cousins. They are still recovering from all the late nights. The weather last week was absolutely amazing for January. Over the three day weekend Billy's brother Jim had a 40th birthday party at the beach house. We got to head down for a few days and enjoy the great weather and visit with family. I don't hardly remember seeing Tyler that whole weekend!! I still can't believe we live so close we get to do fun things like this!

Jace learned a new trick with his lips!

Tyler didn't want his picture taken, so I took a picture of him not wanting his picture taken!!


Jace loves the beach and balloons but they don't got together very well. He popped so many!!


On our last day at Disneyland, Judd stayed home with the babies and I got to have the day with just Tyler. It started out rough... Tyler had a little accident, well it wasn't little at all. We found a pair of Jace's pants in the car and they fit him has shorts. I couldn't believe they fit his waist. The rest of the day went perfect. We had so much fun. We didn't realize how easy Disney is with just one kid.




I think I mentioned that Tyler loves the princesses!





This is his cheese face!




These two were best and worst friends!! Everyone thought they were brother and sister. They act like it too. They cried when they had to say goodbye!









We took and day and went down to Balboa Island! We found my Mom's corn dogs!! (she didn't want us to take a picture!) sorry Mom you look awesome...remember that lady thought you were are sister!!






















I went to Disneyland on a random afternoon and this is what happened! I still can't believe it!

Lots of birthday fun!

Tyler had such a great Birthday. Then we headed home at nine o clock and got a package from Grandma and Grandpa loaded with presents from the family!! Thanks everyone! Tyler was so excited!!


Tyler got a Ducks jersey from the Monarch family. He loves it!



He's looking pretty tired at this point of the night.


Finger again...!




Tyler could not stop stickin his fingers in it!!




Tyler loved it!!!


I made Tyler's cake this year, really not something I do...thought I would give it a try. I looked really easy. It actually was harder than I thought, but a lot of fun!! I think it turned out ok too!


Even Jace got to play!


Jumpin Jamin!!!


We then went over to his cousins and picked them all up to head to Jumpin Jamin!



Then I took him and Jace to see the movie Bolt!



Opened some presents.

He started the day by waking up at 10:00.

Happy 3rd Birthday Tyler!

I'll never forget the moment this beautiful boy was born. The feelings I felt are indescribable. Tyler was 6 days late but worth every second. We were so grateful to have our first child in our arms. He was such a beautiful baby. I can't believe he is already 3! Tyler is such a smart boy. Some of his favorite thing are, Mario kart for the Wii and DS. Mickey Mouse clubhouse, riding his new bike & daddy's iphone. He loves going to baseball, basketball, and hockey games. He loves his little brother Jacey...(that's what he calls him). He loves to sing songs. Some of his favorites are, "Jesus wants me for a Sun BEAM", Popcorn popping & Do as I'm doing. He loves apple juice, chicken nuggets, string cheese, cheese its crackers, pizza, pears, oranges and fruit snacks! Tyler is more than a joy in our home and in our lives. He is a very well natured kid, loaded with energy, such a big help to Mom, and Dad's buster boy.
We love you Tyler, and wish you a Happy Birthday! Big 3 year old
Tyler Love's his cousin Reece. They are the best of buddies.
We went and picked out his bike a little bit early so he could have it all day on his birthday!

We had a Merry Christmas!


Michelle and Brady's First Christmas together

Classic Christmas morning.






I love that fresh out of bed look!














This is one thing I miss about living in Utah...Days like this. I'm glad I got to see it. I don't miss driving in it though.


The three grandsons.




I love that look on Dylan's face.


This is what Jace did all day long!



Oh he's just the cutest!



Before we left to Utah we got to babysit over night our niece and nephews. We had such a good time. The kids were great!!



One of our highlights from our trip, Billy and I went to Anniversary Inn for no special ocasion but to be together. It was so awesome! I highly reccomend an over night get a way for those of you with kids! Thanks Mom for watching mine!



We had such a awesome Christmas! We traveled to Utah to stay with my parents. The roads were great both ways. (we got lucky) It was so fun to have all that snow! Tyler got to go sledding and built a snowman! The boys were showered with gifts and games. Tyler was a bit overwhelmed on Christmas day. As we were getting him ready for bed on Christmas Eve, I told him when he wakes up he will have lots of presents from Santa. He said..."I already got my present see'...(he pointed to his new Jammie's he had just opened) It was so cute! Billy and I just melted.
My parents were so great to have us for a week. They spoiled us! We are so grateful for family's and the time we have to all be together. That was the best gift of all!! I hope everyone had a great Christmas this year.
