Boots are made for walkin'

Tye LOVES Kadon's boots. In fact I don't think Kadon will EVER get them back. He wears them night and day. He won't let you take them off unless you promise to put them back on.

Brothers

These boys are "thick as thieves"! They are THE best of friends as well! Nothing makes a mom happier than watching her children play with and serve each other. Kadon is a very good big brother! He teaches Tye how to do things and is very patient as he learns. He loves him so much! He loves to read to him and snuggle either in bed or while they are watching a movie. He truly treasures his little brother. Tye is so enamored with Kadon. He will do whatever Kadon says and tries to do whatever Kadon does. When Kadon is gone playing at a friends house Tye sulks around the house asking for "budder". I hope they always cherish each other as they do now.

Sundays are SO fun here....NOT!

 We had a really rough day at church. Kadon could NOT sit still or even whisper. He wouldn't listen and he was very defiant. As you can see in that bottom left hand corner. Usually this is not a big deal but Daddy has been working like crazy and is hardly ever home (cause work is CRAZY busy) so the boys stay up until he gets home so that they can spend some time with him. Well we had one of those late nights and this little boy couldn't take it. Grow up if you were disrespectful during sacrament meeting you had to come home and sit reverently on the couch for 10 mins. Well he had already had problems in Primary that I had to be called from my class to come and sit with him (10 mins) then for every time I had to stop him from doing something he shouldn't I added 5 mins. As you can see minutes quickly multiplied... 35 mins= NOT a happy boy

 Tye on the other hand was angelic. We came home, I laid him down and less than 5 mins later he was out.

With only 10 mins left this dude succumbed to sleep.... 

It was a rough day but we made it through and we were all a little wiser from it.

Lots and LOTS has happened...

 We are a baseball family, through and through. Our summers are not complete without at least one baseball game a week. And at those games this little dude always gets a ball. With a face like that though, who could resist.... :)

 Sometimes Daddy's need a timeout too. Both had to sit there with their nose on their knee while they were thinking about what they did. Oh the joys of BOYS :)

  Can't EVER resist a 'photo op' with this cute Mister! 

 Here the Boys are watching and learning about possibly on of the greatest movies of ALL time. Yes, that would be 'Princess Bride'. Right here they are being educated about the R.O.U.S's. Kadon really got into this part and was yelling at Wesley to "get 'em, he's behind you, look out."

"Holy Batman!?"

We went to the kids read fair down at the Gateway with the hopes of seeing some superheros. Well we only got to see Batman. By the time we got there they were starting to close down and we caught Batman just as he was leaving. Kadon was so excited Tye wasn't too sure. But as long as I was holding him he was just fine. {Isn't Tye's face so priceless!!! Makes me laugh every time I see it.}

Take Me Out To The Ball Game!

The boys enjoying watching the game.

Tye being silly with Mommy.

Family Photo!!!

Daddy teaching the boys about the finer things in life.
We love Baseball in this house! It is America's sport and also our family's sport. Nothing like takin' in a game, eating hot dogs, nachos and cotton candy. Oh and I can't forget the dippin' dots!

"Pider-Man"

The boys got to meet their favorite superhero!

This is how I feel most days.... but won't have it any other way!

Big Boy Bed!!!!

I think these speak for themselves.

I think these speak for themselves.

Cousins

Tye and his cousin "LuLu" {Lucy}. They love each other. whenever they are around each other they are never apart. As you can see LuLu has her leg draped over Tye's and their heads are close together. Cousin love.

{HEART}

What can I say....My boys are pretty HANDSOME!!!! I absolutely love these pics. They truly captured each of the boys personalities. And I have to say the ones of them together make my heart burst. You can see how much they love each other and what they mean to each other.

Guess who is binky free???? This little dude!!!
Yay, little buddy!

Mommy's Helpers....

I think this about explains it all...... And what you can't see is the mess they made when they "helped" me with the laundry by dumping their dirty clothes on the floors of their rooms. Couldn't get made at them for that. After all they were just "helping" me by reminding me to do laundry. Love these 2 boys!!

Happy 2nd Birthday Tyler!

Can't believe our little guy is 2 years old! Time sure flies when you are having fun! Tyler is such a sweet boy. When you look in his eyes you see wisdom beyond the ages. He has a desire to learn and will keep trying until he gets it. He NEVER gives up on himself. I hope that through life he will continue to have that same confidence in himself. He is a very smart boy. He sometimes struggles with things but can and WILL figure out a way around it. Tye's smile lights up a room. His eyes shine with such love and faith that it truly is humbling to be his mother. Tyler has taught me so much. I love him so much and am grateful to get to be his mommy.
We had a party for him at the park on Father's Day and got to celebrate it with Mari. What a fun time we had! We are so grateful for her and for the unconditional love she has for Tye as well as us. She is an example to us. We love her so much.

"Hello?!"

Tye loves to call "Bopa"(grandpa) on the phone. He will walk around on his play phone saying "hello Bopa". Such a sweet boy!

They are just growing up too fast. I grateful everyday for these two amazing boys.

Brothers. I love watching these 2 play with each other. They are so fun! There is such a difference watching them play together verses how they play with others. They love to jump on each other, wrestle each other to the ground, push each other around on the bikes or doing quiet thing together. What a blessing these two are in my life and in each others as well.
