*Jaden's first day of Pre-School*

I seriously can't believe this day has come, my first born baby has ventured off to his first day of Pre K. As I was driving to drop him off, I started to have flash backs to the day he was born and holding him in my arms for the first time. Which of course made me cry more than I already was haha such a ball baby I am.

I know it's funny that we as mommies get so emotional when our babes start school, but when you have nurtured and loved this little person from the day they were born, watching them walk off to school feels like the beginning of the end. Now time really flies (if it doesn't feel fast enough already)  and before you know it they are adults with families of their own. I know he is still only 3.5 years old, so I have lots of years left, but the day he leaves for a mission I'm going to need to be sedated lol!!

Anyways, I'm so happy for my sweet Jaden to have this opportunity to learn and grow. Love my baby boy more than words and am blessed beyond words to be his mama!!

*Eli's first day of nursery*

My second baby has now left me at church and is off to nursery! I have to say it is so nice to be able to be child free now for two whole hours. My calling at church is demanding so not having to chase after Eli now is such a blessing. It is a little sad because I think how fast time went by and how big my little Eli is getting (18 month post to come).

I dropped him off today, he did good at first, but then they came and got me because he was super upset. Both my kids have never had seperation anxiety, however, Eli is going through a rough patch right now so hopefully he snaps out of it soon!

*Jaden's first Primary Talk*

My baby has given his very first of many talks in church today! He did so great and repeated every word of what I said perfectly. It was really cute because there is a big picture of the Temple in the Primary Room, and towards the end of his talk he would go off on his own about loving the Temple. It was funny but so sweet to hear how much he loves the Temple at such a young age. Love my Jaden to pieces and the sweet spirit that he brings to our family!

*PJ Twins*

Yeah I have not been good at blogging lately because I got a new camera, so very rarely take pics with my phone. So of course I never want to sit down and load all the pictures on the computer then blog, but for memory sake I need to do it, and have lots of fun vacations to blog about so stay tuned!!

Cute matching pjs my mom bought the boys!! Love when they match :)

*Classic baby in the dishwasher pic*

I have this picture of Jaden, and of course Eli has found the dishwasher too so it has to be documented!

Love my little bubba Eli :)

*Jaden's 1st big boy bike*

Our little boy has his first big boy bike, and he caught on to the pedaling concept quick! The bike used to be Josh's brother's bike and Josh decided to restore this bike for Jaden to use. I really can't believe we are already to this point, time is flying by too fast.

*Finally Walking*

Wow this post has been forever waiting to come... Eli is finally walking!!! Never thought it would take him this long, especially cause he has an older brother to keep up with. Never the less he is walking, not super well yet, and he still crawls mostly but he can walk a pretty good distance, so proud of my little bubba Eli!!

*My 28th Birthday*

My birthday was back in April, but of course I'm just now getting around to blogging about it. I had a great birthday, low key dinner with my little family and parents on Friday, then dinner with my in laws on Sunday. I did get fabulous presents this year I must say. A new washer/dryer from the hubby, clothes and a new fancy camera from my parents, and a 3 set grater attachment for my Bosch from my in laws!! Excited to begin my 28th year of life!!

*I simply love him*

From the moment he was born he has been the sweetest, and most tender little boy I know! I simply do just love him to pieces. Today I was washing his high chair cover, so he sat in the chair booster seat we got for Jaden ( which Jaden refuses to ever sit in haha) and just ate his lunch and smiled the whole time. I think he thought he was a pretty big boy.

His laughter and smile is contagious!!!

*Happy Easter 2014*

Lots more pics to come of course, but here is what the Easter Bunny brought for the boys!!

To be continued...

My matching Easter babies!! Taking pictures of these two is next to impossible, so I take what I can get.

Jaden had so much fun doing an a Easter egg hunt at Grammy and Grandpa's house.

I ended up combining my Easter baskets with my mom's, so the kids were a bit spoiled by the bunny this year!

*Eli and Mommy*

Eli's selfie pic!!!

*Jr Mr. fix It*

Jaden is such a little helper and loves to be involved in everything his daddy is doing. Josh is starting him early in loving to work with tools and fixing things, he is learning the basics early in life.

Jaden's future wife will thank us someday when he can fix anything and everything just like his daddy!!

*My cute little firemen*

We got this hat from Firehouse Subs and of course Jaden is being sad that his brother gets to try it on for a picture! Lol I knew we should of got two hats.

*Bike ride to the park*

I love to bike ride, so that is how we get around to most places now, especially the park! 

Happy boys at the park and a happy mommy getting a good excercise in. 

*Matching*

I remember growing up and hating my mom making me match my little sister, and now I'm doing it to my boys. I love to match their clothes and I would do it more often except that it is kind of wasteful since Eli will just wear Jaden's when he grows out of it. However, once in awhile I can't help myself and just have to do it, and they will always match when it comes to Easter (which I already bought their outfits and can't wait to take pictures)!!!

Love these boys with all my heart, and really can't wait to add a girl to this mix someday!!!

*Josh's birthday party*

Just a small family get together for Josh's birthday. I made him his favorite chocolate dream pie, he got a new hat and slipper shoes from us, and money from his parents! I think he is off to a good 29th year, Happy birthday honey!!!

The traditional birthday cheek kiss!!!

I know these all look like the same picture but it was just funny how Jaden's face changes through every step of the opening present process hahaha.

*Saturday Pictures*

Just some cute pictures of my boys on a Saturday!

Jaden passed out on the way home from running errands reading his new "Frozen" book. Is it just me or does anyone else always come home with little treats, books, or toys when taking your kids on errands?!? I'm such a sucker when it comes to Jaden asking for things when we are out and about. Oh well, maybe the more kids I get the stronger I will be at saying no, for now I'm a push over!

*Happy Birthday Daddy*

My sweet husband is the big 2-9 today!! We were talking this morning and can't believe this is his last year in his 20's, but he could not be happier where his life is at 29 years old. Love him so much and here is to a wonderful birthday sweetheart!!

*100% Potty Trained Day & NIGHT*

Jaden has been potty trained for awhile, but in the last month has not wet his  pull up at night, so he is in underwear day/night now!!! I stopped putting pull ups on for naps a couple of months ago lol just out of laziness on my part, but he never had an accident so it worked out nicely. I love that I no longer have to buy pull ups and that my big boy caught onto this whole potty training thing pretty easily. He definitely went through some struggles with #2 for awhile but we got through it. I think the one thing I have learned is that switching between underwear and pull ups during the day is no good and it only causes confusion. As hard as it is when they struggle with accidents you just have to bare through it and keep them in underwear so that they finally just get it. Love my big boy and his achievement in night potty training!!

*Eli & Daddy*

Eli holds a special place in his daddy's heart!! When Josh gets home Eli can't crawl fast enough to get into his arms. I love to watch them bond and to see that sweet father/son love that they have together!! 

Here daddy is sharing a cookies n creame shake before bedtime...naughty naughty hahaha.
