The Ranch

We love going to to ranch. Last weekend Burr put up rain gutter on his uncles homes there, so we took the boys for a night. There are a couple of tire swings down by the basement. This is one of Brekken's favorite things to do at the ranch. Brock loved it too. He laid back, kicked his feet up and was ready to relax.

Life is Rough

Hair blowing in the wind

My baby is climbing

Brock started climbing the stairs last week. He is getting so big and really fast. I was in the kitchen cleaning up while the boys were playing in the family room,(so I thought) I looked over and didn't see Brock. Usually when I can't find him he is in my bathroom playing with the bathtub faucet. I went to look but no Brock. I was walking through the house calling his name and when I got to the stairs and looked up he was hanging out at the very top just smiling at me. SCARY! I guess its time for the gates.

Here we go again!

Ummm yep! That would be two lines people. I am pregnant. We were planning to try in September but somehow didn't make it that far. Oh well! We are excited and I am very nervous. I have had a few freak out moments. Crying and thinking I can't do this, Brock is still too little, Brekken is not potty trained, how am I going to do this. Thank goodness we have 9 months to prepare ourselves. I am only just over 6 weeks but I'm already feeling fat and sick.

Indoor smores

I made indoor smores with Brekken the other day. I wanted something sweet so badly we made a special trip to the store to get all the ingredients. Brekken is a great helper when it comes to making a treat.



Brekken did all the pouring into the bowl.


He also helped press them into the pan.


And of course someone has to lick the spatula.

Into everything!

Brock is at the stage were he is curious about everything. He is also into everything. We have a bottle drawer in the kitchen that he gets into everyday and pulls out everything. Every time I am doing dishes he is right there climbing into the dishwasher or pulling out the dishes. I love this stage when they explore but it sure is tiring.

Bath time

My boys love Bath time! I used to think it should be a way to calm them down at the end of the day but I sometimes put them in there just to play.


Brekk had fun with the bubbles. He loved this mohawk.


Brock loves to stand in the bath every chance he gets. I'm afraid he is going to slip and crack his head open.

Brekken saw his hair and said, "I look like a girl". I gave him a bubble beard and he said he looked like Santa.

Two adorable boys

My friend Ashby did a photo shoot with the boys last week. She is so talented. The boys were suprizingly being very well behaved and we got a ton of great shots. Here are a few of the ones I love love love. Thanks again Ash, I miss you already.
