--MoRe SuMMeR--

Brandon had scout camp at Bear Lake and my sister was up there with the in laws, so I decided to go up for the day.

Braylie had a blast and could not wait to ride on the boat!
She kept saying "I boat".
She even rode the tube with Aunt Cara!
Little Jada just chilled!

Princess night in Brigham City...thanks to Grandma B!
I have never seen Bray sit so still before (while she was getting her fingernails painted).

my cute Grandpa B. passed away after his valiant fight with cancer (10+ years).
It was a lot of traveling. Bray (and MOM and Dad) were not goign to make it, so thanks to Grandma and Gramdpa G. for watching Bray for the night while we went to the evening burial!
IT was a very good service and so great to know Grandma and Grandpa are together again!
Jada was just chattin' away all night!

at the viewing...ready to be done...
notice cousin Ayzlie's binky in Bray's mouth!? Little stink!
look who is sitting up by herself! GO Jada!
and some more random Jada pics..

she started her nap laying with her head just above the blanket and feet at the bottom of it! :)

and... some random Bray pics...

tired girl on her paper towel bed

my chip girl.. she ALWAYS wants chips and has to eat them out of the bag..
NOTHING ELSE!

good laugh

I can't help but laugh out loud every time I see this picture of Bray! :) It was like 11:30 at night and neither girl would go to bed!

????

Why does my baby think she is old enough to hold her own bottle!?
AHHHH!!

a little of our summer

I finally found some time to BLOG!! ;)

Most afternoons consist of cleaning up poop, lotion, diaper rash cream, milk, (or whatever it might be for the day! :)) and fighting the little stink to take a nap!

(she had pulled clothes out of her drawer and finally gave up and fell asleep)

(falling asleep on the floor behind the door after crying, knocking on the door to come out, and playing with the door stop)
I am absolutely LOVING being home with my girls! They make me so happy and I can't imagine not having them.

**some of our activities the last couple weeks**

{meeting baby Jax}
(or as Braylie calls him "jak")

Brandon's sister that lives in WA came for a visit with this new,cute, little guy! He is about 8 weeks younger than Jada. We already have them planned to be the best little buddies ever! They were laying next to each other and had no idea the other one was there! :) Love that cute boy! Get your butts back to Utah ASAP!

{swimming with Tai}

I am not fortunate to lose my baby weight as easy as most, so I WILL NOT be seen in public in a swimming suit, so Tai took Bray in the pool and I watched the babies!

(trying to suntan like the girls here before she was!)
Braylie has always LOVED her Aunt Tai!

{playing with cousins}

these two=TROUBLE!

Braylie loves playing with her cousins. Right after I had Jada.. I was really having a hard time adjusting, so I would make A LOT of trips to hang out with my sisters and let Bray play with cousins. Everytime we get in the car Braylie still asks for her cousins! We will definitely miss Cara and Matt and their family, but wish them lots of luck! Love you guys!

{Angel Moroni watching}

We had to go watch Angel Moroni be put on the Brigham City temple. It is pretty much in Brandon's parents backyard, which is the coolest thing ever!! Braylie had a good time with Grandma/pa's chip bag. She walks in the door and goes straight for the chips and drags the bag around! We went to Mc Donald's for lunch. She was playing in the playroom and runs out with some ridiculously HUGE random Crocs on! EW!! Brandon would have died!! Talk about GERMS! LOL! My favorite part of the whole day was hearing Braylie shout and repeat temple. It took me a minute to realize that is what she was saying, but I LOVE IT! She gets so excited every time we pull up to Grandma and Grandpa's house and can see it. I love it too!

......And some random pictures! :)
JADA
She is such a good baby! WE are all really enjoying her. She knaws on her fingers like crazy and has started to giggle, which makes our Day! She has more hair now than Bray did at a year!! Braylie smothers her to death! She can't wait for her to be able to play!

I am really going to try to be better at blogging now that I have my life figured out again! :) Well... kind of!

FOURTH

A little firework watching

(where Riley got attacked by a firework (exploded on her foot). Poor girl!)

..plus..
a little Perry parade and shindig

(the house lost air and came down on the 3 kids that were in there! Didn't scare her enough to not get back in)
...plus...
A BBQ and the Kaysville fireworks

(Braylie adores her older cousins and followed Jordan around all night)

makes our Fourth of July holiday COMPLETE!
Happy Birthday America!

T.W.O

Braylie turned two!!

She has grown up SOO much. Just the other day I was looking through pictures and just a few months ago she was so little and still my baby. It was like she grew up OVERNIGHT! Ahhh!
She is definitely in the terrible twos. She is such a little troublemaker and NEVER STOPS!! I guess that is what I get for having her be such a PERFECT baby!

SHE loves Super why and everytime the tv comes on.. she asks for "go why". Not sure how she got this. This is about the only thing she will sit for, so we watch it multiple times a day, but never get through a full show in one sitting!

She said "oh, wow" when she opened every present.

We took her to the treehouse museum--we couldn't keep up with her! :)

This is how good I am doing at being a mother of 2!

....Lotion in the hair....

....salt all over the stove top, cabinet, and floor....

and these are just a few! :)
