Family Time!

Yesterday while Lance was working I went down to meet my Mom and sister for some fun shopping! We went to Quilted Bear and Gardner Village.We had a lot of fun and my Dad was nice enough to watch 10 of the Grandkids that were there while we went. My kids love their Bompa.
Later that night we went to Boondocks in Kaysville for Lance's Mom's birthday party and we all had a fun time there. She got the little kids passes to use the Kiddie area and they loved that. Sawyer was climbing all over the place and even went to the very highest part and came down the slide. This kid is so my climber! It was so fun watching them play, Sadie was a bit more timid and kinda just hung around at the bottom but that was fun for her as well. We also got to play some fun games and just had a nice relaxing Saturday night!

So I am posting some pictures of our fun with that and also some of Sadie in her Dance class and one of Sawyer nad his cousin Ryker! Enjoy!

Sadie enjoying her self at Boondocks. It was pretty cold outside. We only stayed out for a few minutes!
Sawyer watching the cars racing outside, he was loving it!
Lance and I having fun at Boondocks. It was so nice to be able to just hang out and relax!
Sadie playing on the play swing thing.
Sadie jumping on the bouncie thing, the pictures I took of Sawyer didn't turn out I am so sad. He was up so high it was hard to get his picture and he wouldn't stay still enough for me to do it as he was running by!
Sadie at her Dance class doing shuffles
Getting ready to do Ballet and 5 Positions in a row!
She loves to wear the crowns, all the little girls do.
And last but not least these cute boys! My sister and I bought Ryker and Sawyer the same shirts not knowing it so we had to get a picture of the two of them wearing them! Sawyer loves his cousin Ryker so much! I love this picture because it looks like Ry is grabbing Sawy's neck, but he was saying to him "Come here Sawy and get a pictore with me" That's how he says picture and it was so cute!

Fun at the park!

Today we went to Barnes Park in Kaysville with Lance's family and celebrated Lance's sisters birthday. This was my kids first time at a big park really. They play on my Mom's slides and swings and ours at home but I have not taken them to a bigger park. Last year they were still kinda small and so we didn't do many parks and so this was a fun day for them. They could run and play and they loved the slides. I thought that they would be a little scared of the bigger twistie slides, but I would put Sawyer in at the top and Lance would catch him at the bottom and he would just giggle and want to go over and over again. Sadie liked it, but I think not being able to see really until she was out of the covered part that she wasn't into it as much as Sawy was. They also have Ducks at the park and the kids loved looking at them and feeding them bread. 
Here are some pictures of our fun day.

Here are my cute kiddo's playing on the slide. I can't believe how grown up they look in this picture.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!!

Today was a fun day. We went and met my Mom, sister Michele and 4 of her 6 kids up at my Grandpa Dillon's grave. He was Irish and we would always celebrate St. Patty's day with him. He was the greatest guy ever! He passed away when I was a Sophmore in HS so he has been gone a long time and I sure wished that he could still be around to know my kids. He was the best Bompa ever and I miss him so much! So here are some pictures from our fun day.
Here is Sadie in her new St. Patty's Day shirt

And Sawyer showing off his shirt, although he would not look at the camera. His famous thing to do. He is also getting a bunch of teeth in so he has some major drool!
And here he is pushing Sadie out of the picture. Such love!
I could not get them to stand still so I had to get the chairs from Sadie's room and make them sit on them.
And Sadie being a cheeser. She LOVES to get her picture taken. Can you tell, she is totally posing it up!
Sawyer not so much! He would much rather me not bother him while he is watching his favorite Mickey Mouse clubhouse show! :)
Another pose from Sadie bug
Staring off into space.. He is such a cute kid
Sadie in her new carseat. My kids only have their binks when they go to sleep at night and for naps. I don't like them to have them during the day, we are trying to get rid of them all together but are doing it one day at a time. I know I should cold turkey it but I like them to much at night to take them away.. I know, how selfish am I. But I am so worried they won't sleep as well with out them so I have to do it one day at a time! LOL. Anyway so they happend to both find binks in their carseats ( oops!) and would not take them out for pictures!
They were getting to tall for their other carseats and so I moved them to booster one's. I found these cute designs online at Walmart and had them sent to our house. I don't buy online much, but man that was sure nice and easy to just have them delivered. And they have loved having more room to move and sit in the car!
Here they are with their cute cousins. Ryker, Sawyer, Maguire, Makele, Ireland and Sadie. The other grandkids were in school. The two older kids in this picture are my sisters twins. And then she has the younger two pictured and two older girls as well. 6 cute little kiddo's, I don't know how she does it, but she does!
This is my cute niece Ireland. She was named that after my Irish Grandpa Dillon
Sadie and Sawyer thought it was much funner to play and hit the balloons
My handsome and sweet little man
And my two little Irish babies. They just wanted to run around and play so this was the best picture we could get of them sitting still!

What Sadie and Sawyer have been up to!

I have not done a post for a long time on just the Twins and how they are growing and what new things they have been doing. So this post is just all about the two of them! I still can't believe in 5 months they will 2! It just seems to keep flying by way to fast. But they are at such a fun age right now and we are loving every minute of them. Sadie has really gotten into Dance and loves to "Tap" all over the house with her new Taps that my Mom had bought her ( which I mentioned in the last post) my Mom also bought her first pair of Ballet shoes last week and Sadie loves those too. Thanks Grandma for all the fun Dance stuff.

Sadie is still our tiny little girl and is such a sweetheart. We still can't get either of them to eat many veggies.. But we will continue to work on that and lucky the last time we went to the Doctor they had both gained some weight and she said she was not worried about them and that they were both doing great!

Here are some of Sadie's favorite things and words she says right now:
Favorite things:
1.Anything to do with Dance
2.Minnie Mouse, Dora
3.Her Bear we did for them at Build a Bear and it is so cute when she calls it  "Bear" I can't type out the way she says it, but I will have to one day get it on Video because it is super cute.
4.Playing with Sawyer
5.Playing with her Dolls and being a little mother to them, she is always getting blankets and covering them up and feeding them baby bottles and pushing them in the stroller.
6.Playing with her cousins, she loves Ireland.
7.Riding in the wagon
8.She is very much a Momma's girl and I love it. Except when I am trying to do things around the house and she won't let go of my legs to let me get them done. But I know it may not always be that way so I am cherishing every minute of it. :) She even sometimes gets mad at Sawyer if he tries and sits on my lap or wants me to hold him. I guess she thinks I am only for her, but we have to tell her that it's ok if Sawyer sits with Mom too. :)
9.Reading books
10. Shoes! This girl loves shoes. ( Just like her mother) She loves to try on everyone else's shoes and she is very good at putting her own on by herself.

Go ( Usually when we are getting ready to go somewhere or when she and Sawy are driving in their play cars) They call cars (GO's)
Ya!
When you ask her about animals she will Stick her tougue out and breath like a dog for Puppies and if you ask her what a Duck says she will say "Cack, cack, cack"
And her newest word is NO! And she loves to use it!
So there are some of Sadie's things she likes to do and say.

Sawyer is still my tender hearted boy and I love him to pieces. He can be a stinker when it comes to eating and some days hardly eats anything, I don't know how he isn't starving. But he seems to eat when he wants to and that is what everyone tells me that he will eat when he gets hungry enough, but it just always makes me worry. He and Sadie are good friends, even when she teases him. Big sister is already torturing him.. But most days they just love to play with each other and are good at sharing.

Sawyers favorite things to do right now:
1.Anything to do with Cars - He loves to drive around and make the car sounds
2.Puppies - He also loves his Dog that we made for him at Build A Bear
3.Playing with Sadie
4.Playing with his Cousin Ryker, he is always asking for Ry Ry and I, I and we have had to call a few times and talk to Ryker because he would not stop asking for him till I did. I think it is so cute, they are good buddies.
5.Playing outside, swining on the swings
6.Sawyer loves his Daddy. He loves when Lance has the day off and is able to play all day with him. Lance usually only gets Sundays off and sometimes a day off during the week so we love it when Daddy is home to play. Sawyer will ask for Lance the second he wakes up and if Lance had the day before off and I tell Sawy Daddy is at work today he will make me go in our bedroom and let him look for Lance because he doesn't believe me if he can't see for himself. I am so glad they have such a good bond.
7.Sawyer still loves Mickey Mouse and watching that show anytime I will let him.
8.Reading books

Words used often:
Daddy
Mickey - He says it Mitey or something like that, it's cute!
Cars
Momma
Ry Ry
I, I
Bompa
Go
Sissy
Sadie
Doggie
Book
Sucker - This kid got my love for sugar and he is always wanting suckers.. I have to limit him.
He will also tell you what animals say, he says the same things Sadie says.

So there you have it a bunch of things that Sadie and Sawyer love to do and say!
Here now are some pictures of them playing at home and Sadie of coarse in her Dance outfit! Enjoy
                                       
                  Here is Sadie at my parents trying on her skirt that Grammy Kuehne bought for her and Ireland. And she had picked out her Ballerina shirt to wear that day as well.
Sadie at our house trying on her Dance outfit, she would not look up at me, she was to busy checking out her skirt.
Sadie showing off her entire outfit. I could not get her to stand still very long she wanted to be dancing around the hole time. ♥
And here is my silly little boy. He decided while he was playing in his room that he would take the toys out and sit in the Toy box. As you can see we still have not gotten the lid put on. And I kinda hesitate to do so, since Sadie has a white one in her room and it has the lid on and they always put the lid down and then stand and jump off of them. Little monkeys. :)
And this is how I found Sawy the other day while I was doing my hair and when I came back in he had gotten the chair out of Sadie's room and carried it into the family room and sat himself in front of the TV to watch his shows.
