Update!

So here is a little update on our family. Addy had her first day of preschool last week. She was supposed to start on Wednesday but she was sick so she didnt get to start until Friday. She loved getting in her new school clothes. We sat down the night before school started and picked out her clothes that she wanted to wear then on Friday she woke up and decided she didnt want to wear what we picked out so in a mad rush we had to find something new! She is definitely my daughter, that is exactly what I do all the time! Anyway this is what she choose to wear! She looked cute anyway and she loves her boots! She told me the other day that, "I think we have a cowgirl on our hands"! She is also starting to say some pretty funny stuff lately! She is a little spit fire! :) 

Here is our little guy! We got sent down to St. George to do an ultrasound because I'm huge! Once we got down there and they checked us both out they just determined that I'm short and so my belly grows out, which is why my belly is so big! I have 6 six weeks left until we get to meet this little guy! I think we have a few things ready but I feel like I've never had a baby before. I feel lost but I guess we will figure it all out once he gets here. 

We did finally get the crib in. I've been asking Tyson to get it in for a while now and he finally did it last night. I'm glad that part is out of the way. I do think we are getting close to having everything we need. There are few things still on my list but for the most part we are ready!

This was Addy today! Everyday at school this month they are learning about a new color. Today's color was yellow! She was so excited to wear her new yellow pants! She kept telling me "everyone loved my new yellow pants mom!" She has had the color they are learning about in a clothing item so far but next week might be a struggle! She has also talked my sister into painting her nails the color she is learning about, except for the other night we were home and it was blue day the next day. Well Tay wasnt around and Addy didnt want to wait for me to paint her nails so she talked her dad into painting them for her. It was his first time and I must say he did a really good job. I would love to post the picture of him painting her nails but I'm afraid that he would kill me! He told me if I put it on facebook we would be in a big fight, not that I'm too worried about that but I wont make him mad for now but pay backs are always the best and I do have a little leverage just in case I need it! :)

Mini Cheer Camp

This year we signed Addy up for a mini cheer camp with the high school cheerleaders. She went for 3 days and practiced and then on Friday they got to cheer at the high school football game. She thought she was so big. She loves to cheer which is really hard for her dad and I to swallow. She wants to be like Aunt Tay-Tay so I guess while she is little and doesnt know any better we will let her be a cheerleader! :) 

I was trying to be super mom and make sure that the video camera was charged up...which I accomplished but I forgot to check my digital camera so when I went to start taking pictures that night of course the battery was dead. So thanks to Aunt Malena for taking some pictures of the kids and Addy for me. I did however get the whole cheer on video which rarely happens but we did manage to get that, thanks to Tyson who videoed the whole thing! 

Anyway here are some pictures of the night. 

Liv, Dray and Addy! We love when the cousins come to hang out with us, they are always so good at keeping Addy entertained so I get a little break!

The older girls got to cheer while the football game was going and they let the younger girls stand out there. Well Addy thought that she was so big cheering in front of everyone. She said "wow mom there sure was a lot of people at the game that night, huh". She loved every minute of being out there. 

She was doing a cheer here but it looks like she is confused. She has been cheering all week long and cant wait for her regular cheer group to start. 

My cute little ChEeRlEaDeR!!!

Now onto the hunts....

It wouldn't be our blog if I didn't have some type of hunt to talk about. This year I drew out for the archery hunt. I REALLY wanted to turn my tag back, being that I'm 8 months, prego, huge...you know, but being married to Tyson he said absolutely not! So off we went! My huge belly, no camo that would fit and my bow we finally found me a buck. I know that size does matter to most people and usually for me it does too but this year I had, had it! We hunted almost every single day/night for two weeks. I finally said last Tuesday that this was it, I was done and not going out again. So of course an hour before dark we find this little guy 25 yards off the road, dumb as a box of rock just standing there. So I got out, shot, he ran up the hill, died and we were home earlier than we had been any other night! It was perfect to say the least. I pulled the whole "pregnancy" card and told Tyson that I needed to go home, I was too tired and had to work the next day so he sent me and Addy home and he took care of the rest. I didnt have to help with a thing! 

Now that I have my deer, Tyson can go camping with the guys for the muzzle loader and then we can get this baby her in October right before (hopefully) the rifle hunt! Tyson is going camping for a week or so here in two weeks so me and Addy will be left to hang out, get the rest of the baby stuff ready and enjoy just us two girls while dad is gone, because I'm sure come October it will be a whole new world at our house. 

So for now that's all that I have to blog about. That basically what we've been up to the last month or so! 

Here he is, HUGE right?!?!?!?!

Night Golf & Cabin Birthdays...

Last Friday night Tyson was asked to play on a team for the night golf. My mom, dad, Tyson and Mykel were on the team. They play 9 holes in the day light and 9 holes after dark. The night part of the tournament was really neat to watch. Addy and I went up to watch them play one hole in the dark. They use glow sticks for the light and then they make each player wear a glow stick necklace around their necks so they can see each other. It was actually fun to see. Tyson played okay during the day but he said he played really good at night which to me would be the hardest part! He still had fun and wants to play next year so I guess that's all that matters. Here are a couple of photo's my mom got of the guys playing. She didnt get any at night but that's okay.

On Sunday we went to Cedar Mountain to our cabin for my Grandpa and sister, Kelsie's birthdays. Their birthday's are a day apart so this is something we do every year. Its a tradition and most of our families try and make it up. This is only one of a couple of times a year we all get together. Its so fun for the little kids to get to play with their cousins since we dont see them very often. It rained most of the time we were up there but it was still fun. We had some yummy food and great company. Here are a few pictures of our day. 

Addy, Buddy (Landon) and Denym playing in the mud puddles. Buddy does not like to get dirty which I loved....I sure hope our little guy will be like that. 

Addy showing me her dirty feet after playing in the mud!

Yes my mom snuck a picture in! Very large and still 10 weeks to go. We are on the down hill side but it seems like this last little bit is taking FOREVER!!!!

Cute Cousins! They are all one year apart and played so well together. We didnt even know they were there most of the time!

Addy & Buddy driving her jeep! She was so excited, Grandpa Greg took the screw out so it made her little jeep go "super fast" in her words. They had a ball!

My cute parents!

Messy Feet!

Addy loved the rain! I of course was a nervous wreck that she would be sick the next day because she played in the rain until she was wet enough to change her clothes then went back out in it again. She had to ride home with only a shirt on and a blanket around her cause she got all of the extra clothes I took wet! She had a great time and that's all that matters. 

24th of July!

We had a great holiday weekend! On Saturday we went to Panguitch to hang out with Tyson's family. They usually have a big family reunion and all get together. This year we were actually able to go, which was fun! We headed over and when we got there they had the whole day planned. They had a few games for the kids set up, water balloons and some fishing game and then for the big kids they had a clay pigeon shooting contest and horse shoes. It was fun to go watch Tyson be with his family since we dont see any of them very often. He had a ball shooting, unfortunately he didnt win and got knocked out every time but still had fun. Addy loved playing with all the cousins! I had to come back to work on Monday but then on Tuesday we hung out in Beaver. We went to the parade then the park. Tyson had to work so he couldnt join us but was off at 5 that night and we went to the rodeo. Addy loved the park and all the games. Her favorite was the dunking booth. She really wanted to dunk one of her dad's friends in the water. She was a little small and couldnt throw the balls hard enough but Tyler helped her hit the target to dunk Chas and she was so excited to tell her dad that she actually got to dunk him. :) Addy and I went home to have a little nap, ran up to the races and then went to my mom's for dinner. Tyson was able to come to dinner and then the rodeo with us! We had a great time and Addy loves the rodeo's now. That's all she can talk about is going again soon! We had a great couple of days with family and friends. It so sad to think that summer is about over and this baby will be here before we know it. 

Here are a few pictures from our weekend. 

Clay Pigeon Shooting!

It got kind of loud for Addy!

The Parade!

Addy loves Danton

Its sad to say but Addy got her running skills from her momma! She is not very fast! She sure was excited to run in the races and she thought she won so I guess that's all that matters!

Playing some games at the park!

Addy wanted to have a race with Meranda. She wasnt too sure about the potato sack but she still got in there and tried. She couldnt figure out how to jump so she just walked in the sack. 

Her favorite part!

This is where Schena helped her push the red button! She thought it was so fun that Chas fell in the water and she even got splashed!

Golfing fun!

So these are the only two pictures I took of the 4th. We had a really long night the night before, Addy had the 24 hour flu and so we went to the parade and then home to bed. Addy also got a new kitty the night before, that seems to be like a sibling, we have to take the damn cat everywhere! She named her Riley and Addy hasnt put her down since we got her. 

Tyson has decided to take up a new sport...Golfing! He used to golf all the time and when he hung out with my cousins but once he married me he quit! Which is kind of weird because I come from a long line of golfers and my family loves to golf! Anyway we got him all set up with some new clubs, next on the list is some shoes and a glove and he will be set! Lately he hasnt even wanted to go to the hills, he just wants to golf and so you know something is wrong with him when he picks golfing over deer! :)

On Sunday for our family get-together we decided to go golfing. We went to the course at noon and golfed until 7 that night. We all got fried but had a great day! My whole family went but by the course you cant golf more than like 5 at a time and we all golfed so my mom, dad, Tyson, Addy and I went together and Tay, Mykel and Kelsie were just a hole ahead of us. We had a blast and me being huge prego kind of felt left out so I golfed the last 9 holes of the day. Its been a while since I've golfed but I still had fun and I am looking forward to being able to do something fun with Tyson every once in a while!

Here are a few pictures from our day!
