MY HONEY

For those of you who don't know me well, I do not like being alone at night and Cade is in Arkansas working for the next 3 weeks. This may not be that long to some but I guess I am a tad on the clingy side and that's ok cause he doesn't mind it one bit! Miss you honey! 3 days down - 18 more to go!

MOM MOMENT #1 and #2











Of course there are tough things about being a mom and then there are great ones. I just want to share 2 that happened recently...actually 3 but I only have pictures of 2. One was when Cade took off to Cabela's with Brigham to hang out at the shooting range, I took that opportunity to go do a little shopping at one of my favorite stores called Evan's Frontier Store or Gatehouse and while I'm just walking around slowly looking at everything with Brinley on my hip just I just stop and notice Brinley ever so quietly looking at everything just like me - and then she looked at me and I smiled at her - and she smiled at me as if she just loved shopping with mom. It was tender!




Then next moment was... ya know when your not-so-little-anymore baby stops falling asleep on you... it's kinda sad, so when they finally do because they are beyond exhausted and just don't care anymore that they aren't in their own bed.... I LOVE IT! So here's the picture. Don't ya just want to squish those cheeks!




Then moment number 3 was at the grocery store and while we mothers would just like to get the grocery shopping done in peace by ourselves.... this was a "mom" moment for me cause it was the first time I had put them next to each other in the car cart and it was just so dang cute to see how much fun she was having sitting next to Brigham. You could tell she felt like a big girl and not to mention she wants to be EVEYWHERE Brigham is - so it was cute!



TINFOIL DINNERS

Going up into the mountains for tinfoil dinners (hot dogs for the kids) and s'mores has got to be one of my favorite things. We just went up with a bunch of friends and family; most of which work or have worked for APX ALARM and we all first met when we were newlyweds.....6 years later and here we are with more kids than we can count! Fun stuff!
