Christmas Day 2011

Christmas morning we headed out to my Grandparents for breakfast. It was delicious and after that we headed home to get ready for church. My mom had bought all the boys matching outfits, it was adorable. After church we headed over to my parent's for Christmas dinner. The boys recieved bikes so we had to bring those with us and we all went for a bike ride/walk after dinner.
Papa and Asher at breakfast
Bryant's beautiful blue eyes
going on our walk/ bkie ride, Asher doesn't know how to pedal yet so I get to push him!!
Aren't they so cute in their helmets??
Don't mind that weird lady behind Dallin that looks like she is trying to take a dump in the picture. I was trying to be silly and jump into the picture and this is what we got, not to funny...
Cute Asher taking a drink after the bike ride, he doesn't usually drink soda...
as this face will tell...
but I think he may have liked it!!!

Christmas Eve 2011

We spent Christmas Eve at my parents with my family. Every year we act out the birth of Christ. This year I had the privilege of being Mary since I had just had Charlie, who also got to play Jesus. It was very neat and I enjoyed thinking of Mary in her circumstance and how humbling it would have been. Here are a few pictures from Christmas Eve night.

Bryant, Dallin and Asher were the Shepard.

The dang cutest Shepard ever!!!
Grammy loving on Charlie
All the cousins in their new pj's,
7 boys and another boy on the way (my sister is expecting in May)
Oh the excitement!!
Grammy and her boys.
For Christmas my Dad bought EVERYONE a nerf gun. So the boys did what they do best and had a nerf gun war. It was pretty funny to see all these grown men having such a good time shooting each other.



Look at all those boys!!

And this was the scene in our home after Santa left his goodies.
It was a good year for us and I think the boys enjoyed it much more this year than in years past.

Yummy Go-Gurt







Asher's love for Charlie

Yesterday while I was sweeping my floors I put Charlie on the floor to relax and watch a movie with his brothers. I little while into sweeping I heard him grunting, I look over to see Asher has put his 3 favorite blanket on his brother carefully, not covering his head and Asher is resting his head on Charlie's belly. I went over and told Asher we don't lay on the baby but thanks for trying to share and be nice. I went back to my sweeping and a few seconds later Charlie was getting a little fussy so I looked over and Asher was trying to calm him down by petting his head and when that didn't work he decided he would pick him up. It was the cutest thing. He loves his brother so much and wants him to be happy. I stopped sweeping for a while to help him hold Charlie and give him a chance to help and be a good big brother. I think he really enjoyed that time!!And Charlie actually enjoyed it to, he stopped fussing while Asher was holding him. I love when my boys are so kind and loving to each other!!!












Some fun information about little Charlie:
He is by far my hairiest child!!
He LOVES to eat, and also spits everything he eats right back up, drives me crazy!!
He's a pretty easy going baby except for at night, that's his fussy time, as is his older brother Asher's so that means it's also my fussy time!!
He did great sleeping at night, until he got sick. Now were up all night, bummer!!
He's my blondest baby and I hope he stays that way! I'd love a little toe head!!!
He has three older brothers that adore him, and his parents can't get enough of all of them!!!


Bryant says:
Lately Bryant has said some scary but funny things and I just think they're too funny to not write down...
First when I brought Charlie home from the hospital and was nursing him, Bryant comes over and watches for a while then says, "I wish I could be a baby again!!"
I told he couldn't and wouldn't ever be a baby again.
Then last night he comes up to me and says mom I want to kiss you. So I go to give him and kiss and he tries to give me a nice long romantic one. I told him that mommy likes short sweet kisses. He said he wanted to be daddy and give me a daddy kiss. I told him only daddy could give mommy daddy kisses but that some day he would grow up and he could be a daddy and he would have a pretty girl to be his wife and he could give her daddy kisses. I'm not even sure what he means by daddy kisses cause Corey and I aren't that bad about our kissing in front of the kids. But he said ok and then said but I don't want to be a grandpa.

Oh Heavens

My house is a disgusting disaster!!!
It's been almost two weeks since Charlie was born and I haven't touched my bathrooms. Talk about gross!! I have 3 boys that pee in those bathrooms!!
I have slowly been trying to keep my house clean and Corey has tried to help, but despite our best efforts it isn't up to my standards!!
Today is the day, I am going to go put on my scrubs and get to work!!
Just after I nurse the baby...

Mr. Blanket

Today I gave Asher a bath and I guess he thought his blanket needed to be washed also. Silly boy. It did go into the washer after the bath was over. This little guy has 3 favorite blankets that he has to carry around with him everywhere. It's pretty cute!!!



Baby Charlie


My poor little baby isn't feeling so well. He has a cold. Sad day!!
