Playing at Grammie and Bompa Kuehne's house ♥

On Tuesdays I go to my Parents house and babysit 4 of my sister Michele's 6 kids while she teaches Dance and then we switch and she watches my kids on Wednesdays while I teach. Anwyay, so while one of her kids was sleeping and the older two were playing on their own I was having fun with Sadie, Sawyer and Ireland. My Mom's down stairs is full of toys, Playstation and a Wii and it really looks like a Toys R' Us store! The kids love it!

So we were having a great time playing and there were so many cute moments I just had to get my camera out and start taking a bunch of pictures.

So here is Sadie doing her hair at the Beauty Salon, she is taking after her Aunt Britt who does hair!

I loved this one, I told her to look in the mirror and see who was in there and this was her cute face when she realized it was herself! :)



Sawyer and Ireland playing in the Play house. I thought this was a funny picture, Ireland is only 6 months younger than my kids and yet she is so short! When she started walking people would come up to my sister and ask how old she was because they all thought she was like a 6 month old walking! She is so cute and my kids love her!

Sawyer taking a ride.

Ireland yelling at Sawy to get out of the car she was trying to drive!

Paigey playing the Piano. Her middle name is Paige and so she gets called Paigey a lot and also baby I, I are her nicknames

Sawyer decided he wanted to join in on the fun and curl his hair too.

Then it was I I's turn

My cutie's taking a ride together

Sadie playing in the house

They kept playing peek a boo with me through the window

Sadie trying to scare me by saying "Boo" :)

Sadie loved riding in the big cars so much that she thought she would give the barbie car a try!

So then of coarse Sawyer had to try the barbie car too. :)


And this last picture is kinda random, but my friend Rachel had asked me to post a picture of the ladder I had mentioned in my last "Birthday" Post. So here it is Rachel, this is what I was talking about. You can get them at Quilted Bear and also the decorations that go on them the lady sells them both! I now have the Fall one, Winter and Valentines one!

Another year older!!

Well I turned another year older on January 15th! I still can't believe that I am 32.. I sure don't feel that old and I don't probably act my age either most the time! LOL. But I had a great Birthday and got lots of fun things. I finally got a ipod that Lance had been trying to get me to get for a long time now. I just kept telling him I didn't think I would use one very much and I didn't want him to waist the money on one. Then a few of my nieces got MP3 players for Christmas and I was listening to theirs and started thinking that it would be fun to have one and it would be even better for Spring and Summer when I start to walk /run with the kids again and since our running stroller has speakers and a way that I can plug my ipod into it, I am now getting more excited that I got one and will use it more! :) My ipod is pink of coarse and I love it. Lance is working on downloading songs and videos for me and it also has a video camera built in so that's pretty cool too!

I also got to enjoy a night out with my friends and go to dinner, my friend Kirsten and I have birthdays just 5 days apart and so we have gone now for quite a few years to dinner with a bunch of friends and have dinner without hubby's and kids and that is always fun to have girl talk!

On my actual Birthday Lance took me out to eat at my fav place, Olive Garden and my mom came and watched the kids for us and that was really nice to be able to just go the two of us and enjoy a night out, we sure don't get many of those and we need to do it more often for sure.

And then on Sunday we had a party at my parents house for me and had a bunch of family over. We have Sunday dinners there and so we just decided to have everyone come to their house after. I got some fun clothes and cute decorations for my ladder outside that I change the different months on and got some gift cards that I can't wait to go and use as well. And my sister in law Britt made the yummiest Texas Chocolate cake for us to all eat and it was so good! So thanks to everyone who made my 32nd Birthday so much fun!

Here is Sadie and I at the party, she wanted to help me open presents!


And here are my kids and I getting ready to sing and blow out my candles. :)

Here are my cute friends that came to dinner, we usually go to our same old "Red Robin" every year, it kinda became a tradition for us. And we missed the girls who were not able to be there this year.. Misty, Jenessa, Steph, Danielle and Heather.

And then these are just some cute random pics of my kids that I have wanted to put on. Sawyer looking not so much like my baby anymore, but more like my big toddler! They seem to be growing up way to fast! I asked him to smile for me and he said "Cheese" I love this kid!

And my cute Sadie. They love drinking from straws now and my Mom had given them these cute cups so she was showing me her big girl cup!

Lance had today off "Martin Luther King day" so we decided to take the kids out to lunch at one of our favorite Mexican places in Bountiful "El Matador" and Sadie kept turning around to the people behind us and saying Hi and giving them big smiles.

And here is my little man giving me the stop taking my picture Mom look! He was actually super tired and ready for his nap at this point. :)

And here is silly Sadie again giving me her "cheese" face.

New Years Eve!

For New Years we always go to my parents house and hang out with everyone and eat lots of yummy food, play games and stay up till midnight to let the kids bang pots and pans. I thought for sure that my kids would fall asleep way before, but they didn't and they loved hanging out with all their cousins.

Here is Sawyer playing twister with some of the kids.

And Sawy and Sadie getting ready to bang pots and pans. Sadie was trying to take away his pan and he was not happy with her!

Sadie playing with the homemade paper plate noise makers that Grandma helped the kids all make.

Sawyer again with his pan, he was loving it. He always trys and gets into my pans at home and so I think he was super excited that we were actually letting him bang on some at Grandma and Grandpa's! I wanted to post a video of the two of them making their noises with them, but on the new version of blogger I could not find where I can upload video's! Does anyone know where you do it on here?

Christmas Day, 2009 ~ I have posted 3 new posts after this one so check them all out!

We had a wonderful Christmas this year and having the kids a year older made it even better. Seeing their faces when they opened their presents and seeing how excited they got when the Christmas lights were on outside on the house and on the Christmas tree made it so much more fun! We had a great time being with family and friends and hope that you all had a wonderful Christmas and New years as well and hope that 2010 brings much happiness and great things to all of you!

I have 3 other posts that I have done after this one from Christmas Eve and other fun holiday things that we did. I realized I should have posted Christmas Eve first and then this one, but owell too late now! So anyway check them all out, I know it's a lot of pictures and you may be sick of them by the end, but after having to wait forever to get blogger to work I went a little picture happy! :) So enjoy them all.



Sawyer on his new horse, the kids slept till 9:30 that morning and we finally had to go in and wake them up so we could open presents before going to my parents for breakfast.


Sadie on her new pink horse from Santa!

Sadie opening her princess crown

Fun presents

Sadie playing with her new Cabbage patch doll Lance and I bought her and her purse that her cousin Kasidee gave her, she is such a girly girl and I love it! I always got a Cabbage patch for Christmas's when I was younger and it was fun buying her, her first one!

Sawyer playing with his new dog that cousin Ryker got him

Sadie girl. I had to bribe my kids with Nilla Wafers, their fav cookie, so that I could get some pictures in with out them running away! And it worked. :)

Don't they just look like they are so thrilled for more pictures!! LOL


My handsome little man

The kiddo's and Daddy before heading off to Grandpa and Gma Kuehne's Christmas morning, the one of the kids and I did not turn out, Sadie was trying to escape in every picture.. Owell, gotta love toddlers and their wiggly bodies! Sadie looks like she is being hurt, but she really is laughing! haha

Sadie in her car my parents bought her

Sawyer in his new cool car that my parents gave him, he and Sadie decided to play in the toilet right before opening presents so his sweatshirt was in the washer getting cleaned.. Luckily Sadie had another shirt under her sweatshirt so she atleast had one on. I told Lance that they were his kids when they were playing in the toilet and not mine! LOL, I was just kidding him. Someone forgot to shut the door and they snuck in.. Little turkeys! Yuck!

Our little family Christmas morning at my parents house.

Another shot, we always seem to have to take a couple just in case one does not work out.. It's hard to get my kids to sit still these days and I said before! :)
