I recently started working full time again temporarily until April. I have been blessed to be able to work from home and only have to go into the office two hours a day. Thanks to our families for all the help. My mom helped the first week and since then Josh's Mom has come everyday for the past month! My kids have adjusted pretty well and it is so nice to know they will be happy when I'm gone. It's pretty much two hours of play time with Grandma :) It has been pretty difficult to fit everything in with this transition, part of why I am so late updating.
Here are my two sweet boys. Oh my goodness I cannot even express how blessed I feel to be there Mom. They are constantly making me laugh and smile. For example as I am posting right now Lleyton keeps throwing a ball at my head and saying sorry. For some reason he thinks it's okay to do these types of things to people as long as you say sorry. It's hard to get mad when your laughing. Rhyder is so noisy. He is constantly babbling and he and Lleyton get in yelling wars. They absolutely adore each other and rarely is Lleyton mean to Rhyder. Rhyder is so chubby and snuggly, he is a tank, currently the kid wears 12 months at the smallest and easily wears 18 month clothes. He comes up to Lleyton's shoulder when Lleyton is standing, he is a big boy. Rhyder has his first two teeth on the bottom. This has been a challenge he bit me so hard while nursing I started bleeding everywhere. You would've thought I would stop nursing but I can't get him to take formula. I could go on and on about these two sweet funny kids but I will have to do individual posts another day.
Here they are, so stinkin cute.
Here is our annual Thanksgiving pic. This year we stayed at home. Going down to Arizona seemed so daunting with a baby who nurses constantly. I usually get masstitis when I travel because I get engorged. Fun stuff. We decided to avoid it and made tons of good food and had Josh's Mom over. Thanks to my sister Jess who invited us down to Arizona with the rest of the fam. She is always opening her house to everyone. She is so much better at these kinds of things than I am. We will have to come down soon.
Here are my two boys again. You would think Rhyder would look much smaller next to Lleyton considering they are two years apart.
Rhyder- I can't get enough of him or his cheeks. It is so hard for me not to cave into him. You would think the second child would be less spoiled but he's not.
Lleyton loves to pretend he is flying. He runs across the house yelling, "look at me Mom I'm flying. "
So this is Lleyton's christmas shirt that says Naughty is the new Nice. He had another shirt that said, Dear Santa, is it too late to be good. When he was wearing his Dear Santa shirt I walked in and he had colored all over his arms. I was so bummed I didn't get a picture. Leave it to kids huh.
Christmas Eve pic at my G-ma and G-pa Jasper's house. Rhyder's shirt says, Mommy's cute cookie.
Another pic w/ my parents.
Christmas Eve in their P.J.s before Santa came.
Christmas morning. Lleyton in his car. I was scared Santa was going to wake the kid up with all his banging, but he didn't.
Christmas Tree in the morning. Before all the chaos.
Ry, ry Christmas morning.
Playing with Grandma Becky amongst all the toys.
I love this picture. This totally has Rhyder written all over it. He is like this most the time. Just goofy and happy. He has been such a fun baby.
My sis Jess and her family came up this Holiday. We were able to do a lot of fun stuff in the snow. We went to my sis Brooke's house with a big group also. She and her husband live up in Woodland Hills , so we sledded and did four-wheelers there. In this pic we were at my parents house where my Dad took everyone around on the four-wheeler. This is one of the times when your happy the roads are covered in snow.
As you can tell Lleyton was not happy in this pic, but oh well. Here is Josh and his brother Sam. Everyone thinks they look so much a like. I don't see it, you can maybe tell they're brothers. Sam was able to come up and spend time with us during the Holidays also. He is so great with the kids.
So I am still way behind posting but that brings us to New Years Eve. I forgot my camera that night darnet. We went to dinner with my whole family and went and played a dancing game on x-box after. That was entertaining I'll tell you that. I must say our kids probably have no hope to be dancers. Hopefully we have all boys :)
