Sienna with straight hair

I went back to Utah with my parents for the week of Veterans Day and Aaron flew up on the weekend to hang out with us! Can I tell you how much I love Utah?? I would move there in a heartbeat! (if i could bring all my girlfriends with me and get my husband a great job!) The leaves were all over the ground and it was cold! Not 80 degrees like when I got home! I got to wear my cute sweaters and UGG boots and loved every second of it! For our family it felt like Christmas so we put all our Christmas stuff up!! (Mostly because Sienna won't be with my family for Christmas and they are coming to Vegas for Thanksgiving so my mom put it up for her!) I will put pics up of that later but while I was there we straightened her hair which I had never done before and it was way cute! It still just wasn't my little crazy without her curls! I think Austin will have curly hair too because it curls over when I spike it up! And Sienna is eating brownie batter in one of those pics! She is a choc-a-holic like her grandpa and they always eat it together! Austin is just as bad! My dad can't resist giving him bites of his chocolate ice cream either! There is no hope for my kids! It's in their genes!

santa claus is coming to town...

I was just yelling at Sienna for kicking her brother and she looks up at me and says "Santa Clause isn't going to bring you any toys if you are not nice to me!!"
Yea Sienna I wish Santa came for moms! =) The things kids say!
The whole Santa threat works great! Aaron is on his cell phone calling him daily- let's see how long it lasts though!

Halloween Weekend!

We started off the weekend going to pick up my mom from the airport! We were all so excited to see her! (my parents moved to Utah a couple months ago if you didn't know so she came to see us!) Sienna was so excited to see her 4-wheeler at grandma's house!


On Halloween Day Sienna and I went to her friend Aiden's party in the morning and then at night we went to our wards trunk-or-treat!





My mom with her favorite people on earth- no joke! They are all best friends!

Check out all that candy! She hasn't stopped eating it since Friday night!



Sunday night we had dinner with Grandma & Grandpa Albright! We had yummy soup and cheesecake!




Overall we had a fun weekend! Now it's time to start getting ready for the holidays! Sienna is getting to be so fun and actually understand what's going on a little bit! I just wish time would slow down a little!

Halloween Fun

Last Saturday we went to the ward I grew up ins Halloween Party. This is quite the event with lots of candy, bounce houses, a haunted house, and some yummy food! It was a lot of fun and we had lots of friends there so we had a blast! Sienna loved every second of trick-or-treating and hasn't stopped climbing on the counter to eat some all week!! (I can't get mad at her- it keeps sitting there taunting me too!)



Austin & Carson- best friends already!

Austin ready to get some candy!

Maybe one day I can get both kids to look?? Prob not but let's hope!



Hanging out with one of my best friends, Katie Jane



This is for Amanda since she couldn't be there due to Sophie's birth! Congrats Amanda- love ya! Your girls looked darling!

Me, Kate, & Whit with our little kiddies!

Grayson- this one is for Kinsey because she hasn't joined the blogging band wagon YET!

That Poor Lady...

That is what people were thinking about me today at the grocery store as I was trying to get to the front of the store and BOTH kids are screaming at the top of their lungs. I was at the doctors for 1 1/2 hrs and about to kill myself and thought to myself "I will just run in real quick even though I know both kids have about had it" BIG MISTAKE! I can't even tell you how many looks, laughs and "I'm sorry's" I got! I can not handle 2-almost 3 yr olds anymore!!! That's all I have to say and the STUPID DORKY Princess, Dora, Winnie the Pooh CRAP they have all over the store so your kid who needs a nap can throw a tantrum over because they are not getting it! THE END

Deer Hunt 2008!

Every year Aarons family all gets together and goes to stay at the cabin for deer hunt in October! Aaron just wanted to stay home this year and chill, but I made us pack on up and head up to Beaver after much persuasion! I love Aaron's family and we have so much fun! The men all go out hunting morning and night, the girls hang out talking, watching movies, watch the kids, do whatever we want and eat some way yummy food! This year we had a lot of fun and Sienna loved every second with her cousins. She woke up at 6 vegas time the morning we got there and stayed up til 10 pm with no nap in between! Even though Aaron and I and BOTH kids have to smash into a full size bed because our kids refuse to sleep in their own beds at wierd places- it was worth it! Even though every time we go there we say we are never going back because of our lack of sleep;I know we will be back this summer!


All the new babies born this year! All best friends already!

All the cousins! We don't even care if they look just as long as we get a picture!

My crazy lady

9 months old!!!

Today my little bug turns 9 months old! I know every mother says it but I feel like time is flying by! I feel like Austin's first year is going by 5 x faster than Sienna! I guess with each child you get busier and so does the time! I never knew I could love someone SO much! Austin is getting so big lately! Some things for my joournal are:
*LOVES any and every food out there! sees it and starts waving his arms and yelling
*crawls EVERYWHERE and is starting to pull up onto things
*can pick up all his own food even if it is tiny pieces
*loves to give kisses and kisses on command now
*loves his sister and laughs hysterically at her (also loves to pull her hair)
*has one little toothie
*loves to crawl after a ball around the house( i swear boys are just born with a love for sports)
*waves back hi and bye on occasion when you wave to him
* is so chill and really just entertains himself
*loves his tongue and always sticks it out
Basically Austin is NOTHING like his sister! He really is very calm and only cries when he gets hurt or is hungry and/or tired! I just lay him in is bed and he just goes right to sleep. HEAVEN!
I love you Austin and can't imagine life without you! The Lord knew I couldn't handle another crazy kid and so he sent me you, my little angel baby!! Now off I go to get Sienna- she's being way too quiet for her own good! As I just yelled her name she yells back "Your daughter is up here mom!" As in upstairs getting into who knows what!

Wii.....

So we won't go into the details but Aaron got a Wii for his Christmas and has opened it early to play. I was just beyond thrilled with his purchase. ha! It is really fun though once he made me play! Anyways- Sienna loves to do anything and everything her daddy does and tonight was no different! While he was playing Mario Kart she had the extra steering wheel out too and was getting all into it as Aaron races like she is playing too. As she is steering she is saying "freakin game!!"over and over. I couldn't help but take a picture of her in action!
