Yes im still alive.....

Okay so I know im the worst blogger ever and im super sorry. I just feel like my life has been super crazy with the Holidays and everything. So alot has happend since I posted last. Braxton is walking...well now he is running!!! :) He started walking about a week after his birthday its so much fun to see him get around. He is very much a mama's boy and dont get me wrong I totally love it but it is hard at times when im trying to get stuff done and he is following me around saying " mama mama" it can be hard but I do love it!!! He has been talking alot yeterday while we were driving I said to him " love you" and he said it back and of course I started to cry my little baby is growing up before my eyes. He is at such a fun age right now talking and walking and he is very stubborn and he knows what he wants. For about the past month he has been throwing little temper tantrums and while it is very hard at times it is also very cute to watch! But lets just hope he grows out of those fast. So that is an update on our little man... Ben has been busy with work and we are thankful for that and hope that it keeps up. He also had his 24th birthday yesterday!! It was alot of fun we went to Red Lobster with the family. Now Me....well I have been good just been super busy...well I feel like I have been but that doesnt always mean that I have been... But anyways I have just been working, on Jan 1st I started working from home and I LOVE it and I also have been trying to get caught up on my scrapbooking and it feels so nice to start getting caught up. But here is a quick update on the fam and I will be posting some pictures soon very soon....PROMISE. We hope you all are doing well and I will try to be better at updating this darn thing.

Ahhh Cute!!!!

So...two days after Braxtons actual birthday we had a birthday party for him at our house with family and Friends. These are pictures of the house all decorated in the "Prince theme" it turned out so cute. Next i will post pictures from the party.....

HELLO

Jungle Jim's

CAN WE SAY FUN!!!!!! For Braxton's birthday Ben and I took the day off so that we could hang out with our little man on his first Birthday....so to start off the day we had to take him to his 1 year appt which went really good its so hard for me to watch him get his shots but he did so good. He is such a champ. But he weighed in at 19.8 pounds putting him the 8th percent and for his height he is in the 51 percent. He is just a little guy weight wise. Then it was off to Jungle Jims...as you can tell by the pictures we had so much fun with Munchie and we won SO many tickets. Thanks to Daddy. We love you so much Braxton and hope you had a great Birthday we cant believe that a year has gone by.

Pumpkin Patch!!!!!!!!

Braxton had his first trip to the pumpkin patch! It was so much fun we went with my Mom and then Ben's family and Braxton's cousins. We put Braxton in the wheel barrel and it was so cute he just loved it. We got some nice big pumpkins and a small one for munchie. So this next week we will be carving them. Ben wanted me to go buy one of the pumkin carving books so that we could carve some cool ones. We will see how they turn out. I will post so pictures! We cant wait for Haloween this year with Braxton it is going to be so much fun.

Finally Done!!

So last thursday Me,Ben,Braxton and my Mom went and looked at our house and to our surprise it was ALL done!!! We were so happy to see eveything all done and cleaned and it was our first time seeing our carpet. We loved it. So now tomorrow Monday the 20th we have our final walk through then on the 22nd we should be closing. We cant believe it is here. We are so very very excited.

Slacker...I know!!!

Okay I know that I have been so bad keeping this updated but this summer has just been crazy. So our little Braxton is now crawling he started doing that on August 26th...Mine and Bens 3 year anniversary!!! Wow how time flies! We have just been enjoying our little Munchie is is growing so fast. At his 9 month appt which was on the 22nd he weighed in at 16 pounds 8 0z which puts him in the 3rd % for his weight. What can I say he is just a little guy. This morning Ben and I went in his room to find him standing up in his crib ( which is a first and scared me out of my mind) but he was just standing there thowing stuff of the edge!! Such a boy!

On another note our house is coming along great!! We went and did a walk through yesterday and we are so excited the date they have told us that it will be done is October 15th! Wow that is so close!

I just wanted to give you all an update....enjoy the pictures!!!!!

LLOYD CAMPING TRIP!!!!

Here is our expensive tree!!!

So over this 4th of july weekend we went camping with the Lloyd family up to Strawberry! We had so much fun just hanging out and just relaxing. I was alittle worried about taking Braxton camping for the first time but he did GREAT and was so cute and so much fun. We are so glad to be back home. May I also add that it was a VERY expensive trip for us.... We can thank Ben for this one..... Here is the story...On Friday the 4th we were all just hanging out and Ben got this great idea that he was going to cut down a tree... we all just sat there laughing as he was over there wacking away and it was so funny that is till saturday afternoon when the ranger pulled up to see who had cut down the tree Ben says "oh that was me" so she went on to say that it is against the law and that it is a $200.00 fine for that.Wow we didnt know that!!!! But anywho in the end Ben walked away with a nice yellow ticket and a $225.oo ticket!!! Enjoy the pictures!!!!!

Rough Night.....

Alright... so Braxton has always been a great at going to bed at night. He has been sleeping through the night since he was 3 and 1/2 months old and he does great I just lay him in his bed after his bottle and he just talks himself to sleep or falls right to sleep. But not the other night... we fed him and went to put him in his bed and he was just screaming his little head off. But I just walked away thinking that he would stop and just fall asleep but nope he just kept on going so I would go into his room and pick him up and as soon as I did he would just start to smile at me...so after about 3 times of that I was like I cant keep going in cause he will never stop...so and hour later of on and off crying he finally gave up and went to bed. When we went upstairs to get in bed this is how we found our little man. It broke me heart. But he has been good since. We love you so much little buddy!

Summer Fun!!!!

Okay so here are the pictures of Munchies first time swimming... he was so cute. When we first got him in he was a little scared but soon he was just so relaxed and started to fall asleep in his cute little float toy. It was so much fun and we are so excited for this summer to take him to do lots of fun stuff with him. He is at such a fun age right now and we are just loving it so much!
