Catching up....

Well we are here in the good ol' AZ once again. I'm so excited for this trip. We are here for probably the whole month. My brother gets home from his mission on the 12th and my cousin is getting married in Utah on the 7th so there are so many things for us to be here for and we are going to enjoy them all. I'm just sad that Corey will not be able to be here with us for any of it. He did however help me fly here. On friday, Thanks you Corey!!! It was a long flight but it was so worth it to be back with all the one I love.

Here is a picture of my boys sleep'n

This is the turtle Corey found in the middle of the road. He saved from being run over. We have been wanting to get Dallin a pet and we were patient and now we have a free turtle. It's super cool and Dallin loves it!!! It's black and orange and it's called the eastern box turtle, turns out it's the North Carolina state reptile.

Here are the boys playing in the tub!
Here are the boys playing together...
"this is how you do it brother"

Dallin just found his nose and now this is

what he thinks is fun to do with it..

We went for a bike ride the other day and this was the beautiful scenery and weather we enjoyed, it was foggy and a little rainy but it was so nice!!!
Dallin being a stinker getting on the table and playing in Bryant's swing...


Here are two videos. One is of Dallin doing what he does best when mom isn't looking. I set the camera up and walked away and this is what he did. And the other is of Bryant laughing at Dallin. He ALWAYS smiles and laughs at him. It is so cute how much he adores his big brother.

Random but cute!!!

I thought it was so stink'n cute how Bryant was sleeping I just had to take a picture of him. Sorry bout the side ways picture. What an angel (when he actually does sleep)
Goofy boy!!!

Messy face!!!

Memorial Day BBQ

For Memorial Day we had our new friends over to our pool for a bbq. We had a lot of fun. They are such a wonderful family and we really enjoy hanging out with them. Here are a few pictures.

Here's cute Bryant

Here is Joanna and her son holding the boys. They really love the kiddos and as you can see the kiddos love them too.
Here is Dallin and Carlos lounging by the pool.
Just chill'n
Corey took Bryant in the pool, it didn't last very long. It was pretty cold!!
Mommy and Dallin.

Despite the way Dallin looks in this picture he really did love the pool.
Joanna bought him some bubbles, he loved them!!
Daddy and Dallin in the pool.
And that was about it for our Memorial Day. We spent several hours by the pool and had the sun burns to prove it!!!

Got...?

My Aunt Valerie got Bryant this super funny shirt. As soon as I opened the package and saw what it said I started laughing. I love it!! It's so funny cause I totally feel like a human pacifier most of the time. Bryant really loves his mama!! He's too cute in it to.
And there is even room to grow.

Savannah, Georgia

Well, were back from our trip with Corey. We had lots of fun. I feel kinda silly writing about every trip because they're always pretty much the same. We get there and spend most of our time in the hotel. We don't really have the time or money to go do anything really neat.I mostly go so we can just be with Corey, even if that means sitting in a small boring hotel room. We do however find things to do. In Georgia I guess they have alligators. Pretty scary!! We decided to walk to dinner and as we were walking there we saw what was left of what we believe to be an alligator on the side of the road. Pretty crazy!! We probably won't be going on his next trip with him because we are going to be coming home (to Arizona) at the end of next week. We're pretty excited to see everyone. See ya all then!!!

Here we are outside of the restaurant.

Crazy monkey!!

I think Bryant was mad cause he wouldn't look at me and he wouldn't smile, huh that is so not like him.
Here's the big guy on the bed, I think I'll have to take a picture of him on every bed now since I think I have this same pose for every hotel we stay at.

Here is Dallin playing with the coffee machine.

Here's Bryant and I on the bed.

What a cutie Pie!!

Corey takes Ramin Noodle with him on his trips so we ate that too. He heats up the water in the coffee maker and puts it in the cup of crushed up noodles. It works pretty good.

Oh yeah we watched Animal Planet A LOT!!!
Well, anyways that was our pretty uneventful yet pleasantly spent trip to Savannah. We sure are glad to be able to spend time with Corey. I'm also glad that he gets to see and spend time with the boys, I think that is important.

My Little Little man has found his voice...

This is so dang cute!! Bryant loves to experiment with his voice these days. Whenever we are in the car he is always finding a new pitch to try out and then sometimes laughing at the really fun ones. Him and Dallin almost speak the same language now and they talk to each other in the car too. I love looking back and seeing them smile and talk to one another. Here is a funny video of what Bryant loves doing the most. It cracks me up!!! Oh and today I think we are going to go on another trip with Corey. I like traveling now I think. I'll tell you how it goes when we get back. This one will be for two days, wish us luck!!

Fun Bike Ride

Tonight I went to take the boys for a bike ride but as soon as I got outside I noticed it was raining. It was only a drizzle and the boys were already loaded up so I put the weather shield thing over them and decided to go out anyways. I thought just in case I would stay close and just go around the complex. I went down to one end of the complex and then down to the other end and on the way back it started raining a little harder. This storm was moving pretty fast and about 2 seconds later there were large marble sized rain drops coming down pretty fast. I know I'm silly and I should listen to my husband when he is trying to tell me how to use a gear shifter on a bike, instead I plug my ears and say lalala. Well tonight I was wishing I knew how to shift. Corey had taken the boys out the other day and his bike was on the gear where you peddle really fast and don't get any where. Well the rain was pouring down and I was going as fast as my legs would go and we weren't getting anywhere very fast. Luckily we made it under some cover before it really started coming down. It was fun none the less. After we got in the house the power went out while I was cooking dinner. So we waited a while and it wasn't coming back on so we ate it anyways. It took a little over two hours for it to come back on but eventually it did, good thing to because American Idol was on tonight and I would have been sad if I missed it, GO ARCHULETA. Now we are just waiting out the storm, I don't see much activity but there are tornado warnings so that's a little scary. I'm sure we'll be fine!! The boys look a little scared but I'm pretty sure they had fun.


Look at my glasses, I had a pretty hard time seeing out of them.

Here they are saying, get me out of this thing. This is when the thunder really started.

Here is a video of the rain coming down.

Blog Addiction...

You know your a blog addict when...

You check your blog AT LEAST once a day...

Your thoughts are constantly 'oh that would be a good post'...

and so much more.

My husband is getting pretty upset with me these days because I can not seem to stay away from the computer because all I want to do is blog. This is not entirely true. I do take care of my kids and they are always fed and dressed, well, maybe not always dressed but who's kids are always dressed when your just at home? I play with them, we go to play group, we go on trips with daddy. So I am not ALWAYS on the computer. I guess I just see this as a very fun journal. I love blogging because I know someday when we can afford it, I will get it printed out and have it as our family journal type thing. I just wish I didn't get the third degree every time I go to post something new. I usually post when the babies are napping or after they go to bed at night. I might be over doing it but I know my mom loves reading it, and it keeps all my family on the other side of the country updated (daily) on what and how we are doing. And maybe I don't need to do it everyday but we are supposed to write in a journal daily aren't we. I'm not really good at writting in a journal but I'm good at doing this daily so... and I can do it pretty quickly so I don't really see the issue. I know I could just call my family and tell them what's been going on but after 500 min's on the phone that is gonna start costing us. Plus nobody wants to call me and talk to me every day so this is my way of updating everyone daily and they can see it when they want to. I mean, Corey I am here ALONE. I have two babies but they can't hold a conversation and as hard as I am trying I just haven't found any friends here that I feel comfortable enough with. So this is my escape. Leave me alone and let me have my fun. (He'll appreciate it someday when we can look back at all the fun and interesting things we did!)

Poor Boy!!

My little man (Dallin) is getting his molars. I have found three coming in already. Despite the teeth cutting though he is a pretty happy kid. I am terribly lucky to have such wonderful children. Dallin handles pain VERY well. I mean it has gotta hurt getting those nasty big teeth and he never complains. Just walks around all day chewing on his fingers. Wow amazing!!!

FHE Fun!!!

Our apartment complex has a movie theater that you can use so tonight for FHE we decided to do just that. It was a ton of fun!!! We got a free movie rental from blockbuster and went and rented on old Indiana Jones movie and had ourselves a good ol' time. Before we watched the movie though, we walked to Cici's pizza and had dinner. This was a special treat because I have been dieing to have pizza ever since Bryant was two weeks old. I couldn't have any dairy because with nursing he couldn't handle the dairy. So like a good mom I cut out ALL dairy. This was very hard at first but now it's not bad at all. Recently I have been trying to add a little dairy here and there and he seems to be doing ok with it. So I treated myself to a couple pieces of pizza tonight. I'm still gonna lay low on the dairy. It has actually been a good way to lose weight so I think I might avoid most dairy for a very long time, just an occasional treat. Anyways back to FHE... we ate dinner then went to the private theater to watch our movie. Here is how it all went down...

Corey turned on the projector but couldn't get the sound to work. I got out the camera, hehe...

I took advantage of this time to snap a few super cute photos of my handsome boys!!!

Silly Bryant, he's getting SO big!!!
Corey is still trying to figure out the sound, he could make the radio work just not the sound to the movie, Dallin is wondering what the heck is going on.
Still waiting for the sound...waiting...
"It's ok Bryant...daddy is gonna fix it he can fix anything!!"
There's the music again, surprise!!!
Waiting...waiting...
Here are mommy and Bryant (he looks kinda scared)...
It looks like something has happened...
Oh yeah, after a few seconds with mommy looking at the silly silver box thing we finally had some sound, yea!!!!
Here is a video of Dallin dancing to the music daddy had playing.
