Update on the last few weeks





Don't be to shocked that I actually got around to posting. I promise to be better.

So the last few weeks have actually been somewhat eventful around here...usually being a SAHM, I hardly leave the house.
Kaedance loved her two weeks of Ballet Summer Camp with her friends and cousins and can't wait for the season to start again. She loves ballet! Here is a picture of her, Cora, and Katelyn. Most adorable Ballerinas!!
She also had a fun play date with one of her friends in our ward, Mallory, at a park near us. They had a great time playing in the water after us, Mommies, had to reassure them that it was ok to get wet and have fun. Thanks Mallory and Karleena, we had a blast! I love seeing her socialize more. The past few months, she has really come out of her shell with those around her.( I think a little brother helped) She'll even say hello to strangers at the store without me having to tell her to! Its so great to see! She starts PreK on Tuesday and I hope that goes well...I'm sure she is going to love it. I will post on that next week.

Landon is getting so big, way to fast. He now rolls over. This make me sad because he probably is my last baby and I want him to stay little forever. Troy loves that he is getting bigger. Landon loves to watch Kaedance and loves to laugh at her. It makes me so happy to see them interact. She really does love him! I try to take in every moment I'm with him. When Kaedance was this age, I worked Full Time, and I know I missed out on some of this stuff, so I'm soaking it all up with my boy! Landon is already a major flirt with the ladies! He loves girls!
Here are some pics of him in his Big Boy High Chair and swinging at the park (he loved it) :)

Not much new with me, still trying to lose the baby weight. I only have 3 pounds to be at where I was at the beginning, but would like to lose 20 total. I've been trying to watch what I eat and I've actually been working out! Yesterday, I bought a Jogging Stroller (on Craigslist for $40 almost brand new, saved me $60, and helped the mommy who needed to sell it....I love bargains & Craigslist!) so while Kaedie's at school, Landon and me can go on a jog at the park. In October, I really plan to find me a part-time job in esthetics so I can utilize my education and keep up my skills. Keep me in your prayers that I find one!

Troy is good. Working hard everyday for our family. He took me on a date this past Saturday. It was fun. We went to dinner and saw Dark Knight, we both loved it! Thanks again Seana and Jay for watching our kids so we could have a night out! We need to make that a habit of taking turns. :)

We are all still so sad about Bouzer and trying to adjust life without him here. This week Flash seems to not be so depressed and we've been trying to keep him busy and active. Kaedance loves to play with him...they are cute togather. Flash is obsessed with Landon. He would kiss him all day if I let him. It's cute! No word on how Bouzer is, but I know he is being taken care of. He is in our family prayer every night. Thanks for all of your comments about the situation. It's been difficult...so we've appreciated all your support!

Here are some pictures over the last few weeks. I promise to be a better blogger.
P.S. I've been obsessed with money saving blogs lately and have links to some of my favs. Check them out. I know I love when I can save money on anything! :)

Great update! It's so fun to see pictures of your kids growing. I'm impressed that you have lost most of your baby weight. I haven't....and he is over 3! Actually, I probably did and just gained some..:Z

Your kids are adorable! I think its great that your daughter loves to dance.

I have to have that picture of the girls. Soo cute. Also, that picture of my little boyfriend in the swing is delicious. I love him!

Yea!! New post!! I am sorry you couldn't sleep the other night - but your background is way cute! Are you feelin okay?

I love the pic of Mally and Kaedie! (But it just reminds me even more of how much taller Mallory is going to be than all her friends! Poor thing!) She sure loves Kaedie though. I think that Mallory is still learning how to be a "friend" and how the whole friendship thing works! We're glad that Kaedie is so sweet and patient and is giving Mally the chance to learn how to be a better friend! :o)

Kaedance even looks different to me...she looks BUBBLY. She is so stinkin' cute. And I'm sad FOR you that Landon is getting so big...it goes way too fast.

I love the pictures. They are way cute! They are getting so big!

That is awesome about the stroller. I love getting a great deal too (as you well know). :)

How is Troy feeling today? Better I hope! Give him hugs and kisses from us! Nick is doing better today... still not working, but better!

It's amazing how fast they grow up, isn't it? Are you sure he is your last??? Not to be nosey!!! It's kind of funny, Brichette and Xander keep telling everyone that I have a baby in my tummy... a boy and a girl. Which I don't, but they think I do. I wish they were right!!!

The four of you are always in our prayers! We hope you find a PT job, if that's what you are supposed to do. :)

HOLY COW!!! I've left you a huge comment... sorry!

Love You Four So Much! We are sending you hugs and kisses!

Glad you're back. I need to get better at posting too. I just don't have anything to talk about. We're too boring! Anyways, give me a call and let's talk Enrichment.

That would be great if you came up then. We are back from Hawaii on the 21st. So hopefully you were planning on coming after that. :)

Thanks for all the comments! I love you long one. :) I will give them loves for you.

We Love You Four So Much! XOXO!

Hey! I saw your comment tonight on Way More 4 Way Less and am glad you found me! I'd love for you to come to a class (or host one for your friends). It's totally late notice, but I have an open class tomorrow morning at 10am in Green Valley. If you could pull it off, you are totally welcome and I'd be very excited to meet you! Call me and we'll talk anyway and can meet another time that's better (my number is on the new blog). I don't know if you've checked out it out yet, but it's www.shopsmartinvegas.blogspot.com.
Nice to meet you!! :)
