He drove his four wheeler into the ground.. he was crazy on that thing. So crazy that we decided to get him a motorcycle - you know because that makes total sense? lol!! He has become a little pro - chance will not admit that the letting him win has very quickly turned into not being able to keep up with him. We were both very surprised at how quickly he got the hang of it. This kid is pretty amazing - he is pretty much great at anything he tries!! I am jealous :) <br />I guess racing is pretty serious business for Parker!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ao2IuCpNbA0/T0hMHHwVbdI/AAAAAAAAB3k/vUGdB2mHAZU/s1600/IMG_4844.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-Ao2IuCpNbA0/T0hMHHwVbdI/AAAAAAAAB3k/vUGdB2mHAZU/s320/IMG_4844.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5712899812544048594" /></a><br /><br />Elley has taken over the four wheeler. She cruises around in her cute pink racing gear that she got for her birthday . Although she is more concerned about finding rocks that look like baby dinosaur eggs. Seriously - though how cute does she look in her get-up!!!

My kids know how much he means to me and so they find little ways to involve him in our lives. The sweetest of which is when my little Elley Belly carries a little turtle around ( the turtle is like the mascot of our family- my Grandpa and Grandma loved them) and talks to it like she is talking to my Grandpa. When she sees me watching her she says," Mom, I miss your Grandpa so much- and I love him just like you!!" <br /><br />I sure do love being the mom to this sweet little girl.. she is even cute when she is sleeping ....<br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BK4yNnLcp6s/TzbqhHRWhpI/AAAAAAAAB2c/19iH12XR498/s1600/IMG_0257.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 239px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-BK4yNnLcp6s/TzbqhHRWhpI/AAAAAAAAB2c/19iH12XR498/s320/IMG_0257.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5708007432347092626" /></a>Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433664253625764665noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8859240431543257927.post-57884175738001999362012-01-06T08:49:00.000-08:002012-01-06T08:58:43.211-08:00This pretty much sums it up...<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FtHk1fsvMOo/TwcmU1h6ZcI/AAAAAAAAB08/UqFuLzpRVhQ/s1600/IMG_4704.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-FtHk1fsvMOo/TwcmU1h6ZcI/AAAAAAAAB08/UqFuLzpRVhQ/s320/IMG_4704.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5694562393241839042" /></a><br />Our Christmas was filled with lots of presents,excited faces,family,presents, food.... and oh ya PRESENTS....LOTS of presents!!!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433664253625764665noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8859240431543257927.post-87535644852009579662011-11-06T11:13:00.000-08:002011-11-06T11:26:35.473-08:00Some October fun...We have been busy busy busy this month. It was super fun - but I am super excited to move on to Christmas. <br />We got to see a lot of our favorite friend Boo- she came over and made some fun pumpkin wind socks with the kids. She quickly informed me that is is not a windsock but a pumpkin octopus, and that they are real because she has seen one. I will tell you you are a liar if you try to tell me there is any other kid on this planet with a better imagination then her :) <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-niE3soM9IrM/TrbciqGG5UI/AAAAAAAABu4/Sypje19EwCA/s1600/IMG_4615.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-niE3soM9IrM/TrbciqGG5UI/AAAAAAAABu4/Sypje19EwCA/s320/IMG_4615.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5671963268693288258" /></a><br />Here is my little princess in her Ariel costume.

<br />Elley has the same pre school teacher that Parker had. When we went to back to school night she showed us her wall of fame - there was 12 students pictures and Parker was one of them. I guess he made an impression on her :) I think he is part of the reason she did so well - he told her all about the fun stuff she would do in preschool. He told her " Mrs. Leeesa is so nice she will give you lots of hugs and kisses and give you bandaids when you get hurt." Thanks Park!! She was such a big girl - she hung up her backpack, found her name badge and went to play with her new friends. She has got this pre school thing down!! Love you Elley Belly!!

<br />Elley has been trying to convince Chance and I that she is ready to drive the four wheeler all by herself. So this is her first time driving it - she was so brave. She cruised around for hours and cried when it was time to stop. She is such a tom boy - she has begged to "pracise" every day and is getting pretty good at that thing.

The night before as I was laying out his clothes I thought about the 7 years I have had with him and I wished I would have spent more time loving and hugging him. I seriously questioned everything. It was so hard.. am I crazy? Just say no so I feel better :)
<br />I did not sleep that night .. just so worried that I was losing him.. I know he is 7!! I am totally out of control. When I dropped him off I thought ok so I just leave now and you take care of my son for 7 hours.. I am so not ok with this!! I tried really hard to stay calm and pretend like I was not battling with myself, I must have done a really bad job because he said '"Mom, am I ready for this? I don't think I am ready for this yet!!" I felt horrible!! I said "You are totally ready .. you are going to learn so many cool new things and make so many friends.. they are so lucky to have you in there class. I am just sad because I will miss you. but I guess now we will just have to cram more fun things into the time we have together after school!"
<br />I love him beyond words..it's so hard to let him go but pretty cool to watch who he is becoming.
<br />
<br />Here he is.. he really wanted to wear these sunglasses on his first day.. me and Chance tried to explain to him that they are SAFETY glasses not SUN glasses but he was not having any of that..

My son is 7!! <br />Here are some funny thing about Mr. Parker:<br />He loves girls.. he has started telling me when he thinks a girl is sexy... I am very disturbed by this.<br />He loves to swim.. and he is so good at it. He freaks his Aunt Loren out when he dives under and hold his breath. <br />He loves Wrestle mania.. he tries to wrestle anyone who will go for it<br />He is becoming such a good reader and is super good at math<br />He is obsessed with Michael Jackson music.. his favorite song is "Beat it" <br />He is a very passionate kid.. he cries when he hears about animals being hurt or people who don't have homes- he has passed this trait on to his sister.. when those sad commercials come on about homeless animals they both ball there eyes out. <br />He is a great big brother.. bossy but great!! He loves to be the one to teach Elley how to do something new.. but if she doesn't do it the way he told her then we have a BIG fight on our hands. <br />He is very observant.. he will be the first person to notice if you do your hair different or change the rug in your house<br />He is such a lover.. he loves his family so much and makes sure that you know it everyday!!!<br />He may be 7 but he will always be my little man.. <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NBg2iYy_L0Q/ThtP1TCjKnI/AAAAAAAABfo/wj1vGPSL14g/s1600/IMG_4168.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-NBg2iYy_L0Q/ThtP1TCjKnI/AAAAAAAABfo/wj1vGPSL14g/s320/IMG_4168.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5628179936392194674" /></a>Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433664253625764665noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8859240431543257927.post-54145120432544361162011-06-15T21:17:00.000-07:002011-06-15T21:32:32.023-07:00Our summer so far....Lots of swimming..... <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZ_3XBzsyYE/TfmGWO7chxI/AAAAAAAABe8/zaVuh49tIr4/s1600/IMG_0069.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 205px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-fZ_3XBzsyYE/TfmGWO7chxI/AAAAAAAABe8/zaVuh49tIr4/s320/IMG_0069.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5618669726644078354" /></a><br /><br />Our back yard campground- this was super fun!!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uNWlFhEpupk/TfmGVXq9CPI/AAAAAAAABes/4_jlEzDMe3c/s1600/IMG_0073.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 239px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-uNWlFhEpupk/TfmGVXq9CPI/AAAAAAAABes/4_jlEzDMe3c/s320/IMG_0073.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5618669711810955506" /></a><br /><br />Elley started dance class.. she looked so cute in her leotard.. lets hope we can make it through the whole class next time with out a melt down :) Parker starts hip hop class next week - I will post pictures it is going to be awesome!! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KMOvSSoRmUA/TfmGVl-wQRI/AAAAAAAABe0/GnqFkvIAOtI/s1600/IMG_4079.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KMOvSSoRmUA/TfmGVl-wQRI/AAAAAAAABe0/GnqFkvIAOtI/s320/IMG_4079.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5618669715652100370" /></a>Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433664253625764665noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8859240431543257927.post-37848750408389732122011-04-25T17:55:00.000-07:002011-04-25T18:00:17.690-07:003 years ago TODAY.....I said" I DO" to my best friend!!

SHE IS 3!! What? When did this happen? When did she gets so big? I am struggling a little with this idea.. lol if you can't tell!!<br />I am so excited that I get to watch this sassy little lady grow up... but a little sad too!! Here are a few fun things about our sweet Elley Belly:<br />- she LOVES to dance.. and she is pretty good at it too<br />- she LOVES Justin Beiber( juttin beaver as she calls him) her favorite song is " Baby" and she knows all the words<br />-She thinks her brother is the coolest thing on this planet<br />- her best friend is her Boo(Brantley)- they are so in love with each other<br />- she is OBSESSED with animals... she cries when we talk about the animals who don't have homes<br />- she is a Big Cat expert.. seriously she can tell you anything you ever wanted to know about a lion,tiger,leopard or cheetah<br />- so of course her favorite tv channel to watch is : Nat Geo Wild<br />- she loves spicy food <br />- she sucks her tongue when she gets tired- It's cute but will probably get her sporting a cool retainer in a few years<br />-she can not go anywhere with out her blankie and bear.. I have to wash these things like every other day.. she watches them spin around in the washer the entire time- I am lucky if they get a turn in the dryer <br />-she is so sweet- she seriously has the softest heart, she cries if she thinks you are mad at her<br />- she loves her daddy and tells him he is the best daddy ever almost every day<br />-she still sleeps in our bed.. but I honestly don't think we would have it any other way!!<br />-she has a very strong sense of family- every toy she has must have a mommy, daddy and baby .. s<br />- she is better at running her Dad's IPad then I am.. sad really lol<br />- she can count to 12.. and knows almost all her colors<br />and SHE MAKES ME SMILE EVERYDAY!! She is my best friend.. and I love her more then words.. she is the best and we are so lucky we get to spend our lives with her!!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433664253625764665noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8859240431543257927.post-8320376787596466522011-01-22T10:36:00.000-08:002011-01-22T10:39:29.038-08:00I love you.....<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tuxNSJNlaZA/TTsjy07YTjI/AAAAAAAABO4/jyiuInoy0qk/s1600/IMG_3664.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tuxNSJNlaZA/TTsjy07YTjI/AAAAAAAABO4/jyiuInoy0qk/s320/IMG_3664.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5565081120654511666" /></a><br />Yep..

It was so fun!! We started so many new traditions as a family this year.. and I can't wait to try them out again next year!! I am so glad I got everything done for Christmas in early December .. it was so nice to spend so much time with my family - and not wrapping presents and shopping. If I said the kids got spoiled .. it would be the biggest understatement ever.. it will seriously take me weeks to find places for all there new stuff!! I am feeling pretty lucky to have such an awesome family!! I am very grateful for my mom .. we had such a great Christmas Eve with her.. we watched Christmas movies, drank some fun drinks, and had so much fun. And I could not ask for a better mother in law.. she always makes Christmas morning so special.. she is so giving and I am always blown away with all she does for us.<br /><br />Elley's fav toy this year... her cool new Car- She freaked out the minute she saw this thing!!!

I sobbed pretty hard for 30 minutes thinking about how big he has gotten. I was remembering the day he was born and how I felt when I first laid my eyes on him. There are not words to describe that moment. I was so scared when i found out that I was pregnant with him - I was 21 but so not ready to raise another human being .. I couldn't even take care of myself. But he honestly saved my life.. it scares me to think of where I may have been had someone not trusted me to take care of him. I had no idea what I was doing..and there are a lot of things I wish I would have done differently . I am a much better mother to Elley now then I was to Parker at her age. Thanks for being patient with me while I figured it out Park you are my best friend and I love you so much!!!Lyndseyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15433664253625764665noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8859240431543257927.post-83859775330116354512010-06-03T21:48:00.000-07:002010-06-03T21:54:47.678-07:00Some fun Lake Powell Pictures....Soaking up some much needed sun..

She is seriously the funnest kid ever. Don't get me wrong I love my kids and think they are pretty dang fun - but this little munchkin beats them all. She is so sweet and has the cutest personality. I told her "Brantley your party is so fun" and she said" Linny - party is mine not yours and Elley can't play it's mine" They are very competitive and every time we come to visit Brantley walks Elley through the house and says" No Elley you can't touch that , That's Boo's not Elley's" She seriously spends the first ten minutes we are there reminding us that we better not touch her stuff. Lol!! But she gives the best hugs and kisses. I never knew it would be so awesome to be an Aunt- but when she calls me and says "Hi, Aunt Linny!" it is a whole other level of love I didn't know I had!! We are so lucky to have her - even if she is a little Diva!<br />I am sad that most of these are blurry - of course I forgot my camera so I used my I phone but didn't clean off the lense obviously. <br /><br />She is always making us laugh - she had to put on everything she got as she opened the presents. She is quite the show off and will do just about anything to be the center of attention. <br />And just in case you can't tell by her crazy outfit she is obsessed with Abby Cadabby!<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tuxNSJNlaZA/S5ruP8IJmhI/AAAAAAAAAwc/1IPp01vwuAo/s1600-h/IMG_0244.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_tuxNSJNlaZA/S5ruP8IJmhI/AAAAAAAAAwc/1IPp01vwuAo/s320/IMG_0244.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447928656863795730" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tuxNSJNlaZA/S5ruPLa9uOI/AAAAAAAAAwU/LZvnBrYl6mw/s1600-h/IMG_0249.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_tuxNSJNlaZA/S5ruPLa9uOI/AAAAAAAAAwU/LZvnBrYl6mw/s320/IMG_0249.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5447928643789371618" /></a><br />The pink chair is the gift I made her - it has turned out to be her new favorite thing.
