The Uintah's with Fam!!!
Thanks to mom and dad we were able to get away over UEA weekend and it was a blast. We headed up to the Uintahs and stayed in a cabin. It was amazing and so fun!!! Aunt Jonie is one of his favorite people in the world. Poor girl was sicker then a dog on the trip but we sure enjoyed having her

Yes this is snow. Buggie really loved it and we had a really hard time getting him back in the truck

The four wheeler ride was a different story. He wasn't to thrilled about the helmet. We had such a fun ride. We went on a 40 mile ride and saw some of the most beautiful scenery ever. It was so cold but so worth it.

This is so dang funny. Look at his legs and how he's leaning into the couch.

Our Little Fireman!!! He was so skeptical of trick-or-treating until he discovered you got goodies. This picture is so cute of him. If you look close you can see his cute grin. He was so happy and he'd say "trick-or-treat" Cute little boy!!!

We really had a lot of fun with the little fireman this year. This was the first year where he was really old enough to understand what was actually going on. You will notice that he had to have his favorite blankie along for the ride.

Finally!!!! We have a place to call our Home again!!

This has been a long time a coming as we've been in for a month but I am happy to report this is the cute little place we call home!! Buggaboo has had some major changes... as their is no longer a grandma upstairs as well as he's in a big boy bed!!! With a month to settle in I am happy to report that the transition wasn't that bad for the little guy!!!

The joys of being two......

Lately the little guy has been telling me when he goes to the bathroom in his diaper and so Jed and I decided it was time to try big boy pants. We attempted it for one day and man oh man little boys in underwear is just one of the cutest things. He looked so grown up!!!! Well he actually was doing really well sitting on the potty until he had an accident in his underwear and it scared the heck out of the poor little thing. While we were having him sit he decided for once that he would pose for the camera and I just have to post the picture because it is one of the cutest pictures of him so here it is......Something else about my little guy that you'll find is that he is always carrying around a blankie of some sort (well theirs four in particular that he is ubsest with but anyways) so one day I decided to wrap the blankie around his shoulders and he thought it was the funniest thing. He kept saying more momma more.

I am really in love with the two stage. He is definately becoming a little person rather than our little baby. He'll correct us when we say something he knows isn't the right word, like the other day I said, "look buggaboo theirs daddy's car." and he replies, "no momma truck!"

Camping Pictures

So I obviously am a blog retard. I couldn't figure out how to get these picture on my pioneer blog and so three tries later their finally here. This little guy absolutely loves the wheeler. He was playing on it while we were preparing dinner

The sunset right before it was completely dark

The family around the campfire

This little guy never made it a mile on the wheeler

before falling asleep. He was so funny about them.

Pioneer Day Here We Come!!!

Just a heads up it's a long one.

Pioneer day in Utah is a great excuse to get the day off of work and just getaway. My sweetheart was able to finally have a weekend off and so we packed up the truck, grabbed the dog, and little guy, along with Aunt Jo and Uncle Ryan and headed for the mountains. What a great adventure.
We started off on Friday morning and thanks to my sweetheart we camped in probably the best camping spot here in the Northern part of the state. It was incredible. We were very secluded with no other campers to disturb us, along with miles and miles of 4wheeler trails. Way to go babe!!

Then on Saturday we headed for the famous Bear Lake. My sweety absolutely dispises the water but packed up and headed over the mountain for the day. We had so much fun!!! We tried to teach Diesel how to swim and he had no freaken clue what to do it was hilarious. He actually tried to jump up on me to save himself from drowning poor dog.

Little buggaboo was in heaven between the water and the sand, he also had a surprise visit from Grandma and Grandpa which just totally made his day. It was just fun all around.

Our vacation came to a short pause on the way back up to the campsite......Jed's truck had the water pump go out in it. Thanks to an amazing couple in Idaho, we were able to get back to our campsite( which I might add was 15 miles of offroad terrain and was completely out of their way) while Jed headed home in a tow truck.... 5hours later he finally pulled up to the campsite with two yeah thats right two flat tires in his dad's borrowed truck.

While Jed was gone we had a little adventure with a chipmunk and Diesel. By the time we got back from the lake a little family of chipmunks had climbed into our wood pile. Well Buggaboo discovered it and brought it to diesels attention which brought out the hunter in him and he just had to have it. Well he's definately a city dog and had no clue how so I helped him along and the little thing decided that my leg was a safe haven, the thing actually climbed up my leg and was to my knee before I realized what was going on. I had pants on and it somehow climbed in them. I thought I was a woodsy kind of gal but as soon as I felt the little bugger on me I freaked out like any girl would and ran around throwing my leg all over the place until he was off!

We made the best of the situation and Jed and Ryan headed back down the mountain again for new tires. Needless to say our weekend turned into quite the adventure but we are all home safe and happy. Poorer than the average camping weekend but happy!!

Here are a few fun pictures of the weekend.

July Holidays are the Best!!!!
We have had such a fun year this year with fireworks, beaches, demolition derby' s and all the other fun adventures that the summer allows.
This past weekend we took a huge chance and tested Brock out on a boat. He was a little skeptical at first but absolutely loved it. He is in love with the water all around this year and so we thought it was time to stretch our luck. That same night we took him to a Demolitian Derby that goes on here in Cache Valley. Knowing our little guy and trucks we thought it would be a great Saturday adventure and it was a big success with him. He was in Heaven all around. He's been talking about it now for the past few days and he'll say, "trucks boom boom," then he'll add a hand motion showing the smoke going up in the air from the impact of the vehicles. He's so blasted cute. It's been so fun having the little guy around. He recognizes things so well. We went to the swimming pool here in the Valley and he saw a car just like daddy's and he got all excited thinking daddy was there too and he said "Dada!" and wanted to go over and see his daddy in the car.
We sure love the fun holiday season. Brock has just loved the fireworks this year and thinks thier so cool!!! When he wants to see them he'll go boom boom!

Our Home Away From Home!!!!!

Poor little thing, didn't get to eat food for three days so we gave him his favorite spaghetti and as you can see he enjoyed it greatly!!!

This was a couple days before going home. He was being more and more like himself. He absolutely loves his blankies!!The little Mister had to have another surgery on the 13th of May!! We were down at Primary's for a week. Ironically they decided to send the poor little mister home with a fever and throwing up which in turn made us end up going back down. He ended up having an infection caused by the surgery and he was completely down and out for another week. The poor little thing never lays around and watches T.V. but this is all he did. Thank goodness for Animal Planet, and an incredible family that stood by us and was there through the whole thing.

My Mother in law is a Godsend!! This year so wanted all the girls to get together for Women's Conference down in Provo at the end of April first of May and it was amazing!! I was strengthened and rejuvanated. I learned so much about marriage and family it was amazing!! Thank you Jane!!! On the second day we went to the Tulip Festival at Thanksgiving point. Buggaboo loved it and he absolutely loved being with Grandma and Aunt Jonie for two straight days.

This is us just having fun!!

Buggaboo and his "D" that's what he calls him since he can't say his full name.

Here is the little Mister just liven it up in the amazing hotel that we stayed in. Marriott! It was incredible.

Here's the buggaboo saying hi to his cousins as they search for eggs

This is all the cousins, we told buggaboo to smile and he folded his

arms like it was time for prayer. In the background I hear, "That boys got

to much church in him!" Hah hah babe!!! We're trying to teach him how to pray.

We took Buggaboo to baby animal days!! He didn't know what to think

of the baby chicks and ducks but he was in heaven with the horses, cows, and pigs. As you can see he climbed right in with no mommy or daddy!! Way to go big guy!!!

He is such a character. He loves to smile for the camera and then see the

pictures but as soon as you ask him to smile he pulls hilarious faces like this one.

He's getting ready to do his first ever Easter Egg Hunt!!!

Easter 2009

Easter was a blast this year as you can see from the pictures. Our Buggaboo is just a joy to have around. We took him to Baby Animal Days and ended up running into the cousins there. He loved the pony ride the most. We thought for sure he was gonna freak out cause he had to have a helmet on and everything, but he was such a big boy he got right up on the pony and absolutely loved it. He cryed when we tried to get him off. Funny boy!! Easter Egg Hunts weren't quite as fun.....he thought it was somewhat boring and just wanted to play with all the other kids.

Officially 2!!!

Well our little guy is officially two! He had a blast on his birthday. We bought him some helium balloons and had a truck cake and this was heaven for him. He is still under the weather because of his disease, he had to have yet another round of botox on this past tuesday. We went down for a check-up cause he's still struggling and they put him on the schedule for surgery. This is becoming crazy!! Two surgeries in two weeks time poor little guy!!

Well Happy Birthday Buggaboo! Momma and Daddy love you bunches and we're so lucky to have such a fun character in our little family!!!

Enjoying the Newest Snow Storm

We have had such a wonderful month thus far... Crazy to think it's almost over with only a week left. Our Valentine's day was so awesome!! Jed and I went to dinner the night before and then on Valentine's day we spent it with our little guy! Jed is such a sweetheart. He got me the prettiest flowers this year. A dozen red, and a dozen yellow. He said the yellow was to tell me that not only am I his wife and love, but also his best friend (what a sweet man).
The week after Valentine's day we got dumped with another snowstorm. This means that Brock and Diesel just have to go out and play in it because it is their favorite. So we got all bundled up and headed out. Brock had an absolute ball as you can see from the pictures, and the dog was just elated to be out there. He followed Brock around everywhere. It was so cute I just had to share the pictures. The pictures of the dog are hilarious. Jed spoils him rotten and knows I hate it when he puts him on the bed, so here he is with Jed. The dog is of course on my side of the bed but he was nice enough to put down a blanket. Then one of Brock's favorite things to do is give Diesel luvs so I snapped a good one of it.

Another round for the little guy!!!

Here's the little guy trying to make the best of the situation

Brock had to go in for another round of Botox injections into his sphinkter muscle. Due to his Herschsprung's disease. Poor little guy absolutely hates hospitals now, the second we walked into the hospital he started screaming. The surgery went really well and the doctor was out talking to us within 30 minutes. Little did we know that they had left a gauze pad inside him and that the next 24 hours would be pure craziness. He started acting really wierd and I felt like something wasn't right. As I was giving him a bath I noticed something hanging out of his behind that I knew wasn't right and so I started pulling on it. It kept coming and coming and at first I thought it was his intestine. Well as I started looking at it more I realized it was a gauze pad. The poor thing no wonder he wasn't acting normal. He's had the surgery before and so we kind of knew what to expect and when he wasn't acting the same I knew something was off. Well I called the doctor's and their explanation for it was a lack of communication between the doctors and the PACU. What???

Brock

This is our little guy and his new puppy! He got a Great Dane for Christmas and they are best friends. Brock will wrestle him to the ground and it is so cute. The dog is only three and a half months old and he is already as tall as Brock. The rest of the pictures are just fun ones that I shot during the Christmas holiday. He got spoiled rotten... he already had every man's dream.. a jeep and a truck.

Here is the big graduation day with my amazing family!!! My sister Serena is such a great sister she flew in from North Carolina for the big day, and my big bro. Chris came as well with his family. Jeds family is so great each and every single one of them was there. Thank you so much for all the love and support!! I love all of you!!!!
