Lake with Family!

Tube wars...Tyler ripping Thomas off the tube. It was pretty funny!

Kimber and Kenna. Kenna loved pushing the horn on the boat.

Peter and Kenna. It was so cute. Peter has 11 siblings and is really good with kids. He played really with her. Makenna was leaning over the end of the boat while Peter was in the water and kept saying she was catching fish. She was saying she caught a "peter fish" It was cute. She even was wanting to hang over the side of the boat while it was going! haha...crazy girl!

Kimber and Lydia.

We went to the lake Friday through Sunday with law friends. We then turned around and went back Monday - Wednesday with Jan, Kimber and her friends. Kenna had a good time playing with Grammy. She wanted to be in the water every second she could. Tyler threw some good flips wakeboarding and had a good time tubing.

Lake with Law Friends!

Shannon and John Wiggins

This past weekend Tyler, Kenna and I went to the lake with some friends from law school. Jeremy and Laurie brought their 3 kids Kailey, Dimitri and London. John and Shannon also came with us. We went tubing, cliff jumping and swimming. It was a lot of fun. It was my first time ever driving the boat too. 

Kenna's New Bed

These are pictures of Makenna in her new bed. She has our old queen bed. This was her first night sleeping in a big girl bed so I put pillows all the way around her. She won't sleep under the covers. She likes to sleep on top of them with her comfy blanket! She is so cute!

Singing

YOU NEED TO PAUSE MY PLAYLIST MUSIC ON SIDE SO YOU CAN HEAR THE VIDEOS WITHOUT OTHER MUSIC PLAYING!

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
(you can hear the train in the background)

I am a Child of God
(She only sings the chorus)

Oh How I Love Him!

So...we live in the same place where Tyler grew up. We are in a ward/stake where most of the people knew Tyler when he was younger. We all have those stories of being an awkward teenager and all that, but I love hearing the other stories people tell me about Tyler. At church yesterday I was talking to a lady that knew Tyler when he was in high school. She told me how impressed she was by him. I guess her daughter had had a party and invited the like the whole stake. Most of the boys showed up but then quickly snuck out the back. Tyler came and stayed and hung out with everyone. All the stories I hear about Tyler are how nice, sweet and thoughtful he was back then. Not much has changed :). I love to know that even then he was a great guy! I am sure he has his moments, but I am glad to have married such a great man!! 

You Know I'm Pregnant...

When I get so excited about ice cream!! haha. I found this ice cream last night and thought...hey why not! It was Ben and Jerry's Cinnamon Buns. Who could resist caramel ice cream with cinnamon bun dough and a cinnamon streusel swirl!? Oh my gosh...I couldn't. It is super yummy. Definitely something you should put on your list for the next time you go grocery shopping!!!

So Many Changes!!

Life seems to be changing so quickly. My little girl is growing up. With the arrival of our second little girl in December we have been decorating our 2nd bedroom for Makenna to move into. It's not done, but we have talked to Makenna a lot about moving rooms so she will be comfortable with it. Last night she begged to sleep in her "big girl" bed. So I said okay. It took her awhile to fall asleep, but she slept there all night and woke up singing twinkle, twinkle little star. It was weird to walk by her old room and see an empty crib. I know that sounds kind of dumb...but it made me feel weird. I can't believe how big she is getting...and how smart. 

Tyler is starting school in a few weeks and I am not ready for that. I have been changing...well getting fatter... haha. 

We are also loosing our best friends here in Oklahoma...Corey and Ciara. They are from Las Vegas and have been going to law school out here. Tyler and Corey have been study buddies and we have gone out as a couple a lot this past year. They are such a cool couple. Corey has always wanted to go to UNLV law school and applied again and was accepted to start this fall as a transfer. Since they are both from there...they are moving back. We are so happy for them that they can be by family and Corey can go where he always wanted to. But we are extremely sad to loose them. We sure will miss you guys!!  

Word World!

This is Makenna's new favorite show. It is on PBS and she loves it. I have DVR'ed a few episodes and she loves to watch them. All the characters are made up of letters. They build all sorts of words. In one episode they use B-A-L-L and build a ball and then play baseball with it. It's very education and she loves when they build words. They have a song they sing every time they build a word. I defintely would recommend this show to anyone with younger kids. They are totally entertained by it and it helps them learn letters and words!

Dinner

Okay...so Kenna had green beans for dinner tonight. I was on the computer while she was eating and I could hear her counting her beans. I then looked over and she had pulled a few of them apart. What I didn't realize is that she was pulling out the beans from inside and only eating the beans. What a crazy girl. Who would have thought!

Like I said earlier...Makenna loves to have her picture taken. When she saw me taking pictures of her food she wanted me to take a picture of her eating her food. So this is a picture of her eating a BIG bite of fruit!

Kenna also wanted me to take a picture of her plate! She loves spongebob and this is one of her favorite plates. I like it too because I can put a bunch of foods on the same plate...having the little compartments makes it easier for her to get out because she has a side to scoop up against. She had fruit, green beans and a turkey hotdog for dinner tonight. haha

21 weeks in Pregnancy!

So...a lot of you have been waiting for these pictures. I don't really want them up, but it's apart of life right...haha!! I have busted out the maternity clothes! haha. I also have to do the little rubber band trick on some of my pants. There is no hiding that I am pregnant now...haha. I woke up last Friday and couldn't put half of my pants on. It was literally over night that she grew. Before I was just thick in the middle and now I am prego! haha! This little girl is super active. When she is awake...she is kicking me like crazy. Sometimes it starts to hurt because she seems to hit the same spot every time. I am not sick anymore which is so awesome. I can actually eat almost anything I want now. I don't have cravings and adversions like I did with Makenna. I do have a hard time sleeping though. I wake up a lot at night and always have to go to the bathroom. I am exhausted quite a bit of the time. We are still thinking of names. I already have one girl that I love so much and I can't wait for my next one. I hope that my girls and I will be best of friends.

2 year old tantrums!

Oh poor baby :)
She wanted me to keep taking pictures of her. I had already taken quite a few and was putting the camera away. She threw herself on the floor and just started crying. It was so funny. You could even see her start to smile in between because she knew she was putting on a show!

The Zoo!

That's one scary old chimp!

Kenna had fun looking at the larger turtles. She did get scared when it started walking towards us!

Kenna loved the giraffes!

The Ostrich came really close. He tried to bite Makenna through the fence so we had to move her back!

Kenna also loved the zebras!

Haha...that's one big gorilla!

So the zoo has .75 cent Wednesday's. Makenna is under 3 so she is free and so it only costs Tyler and I $1.50 to go to the zoo. Last Wednesday we took her first thing in the morning before it got too hot. She loves going. She is still talking about it and it was last week!

Swimming!

Running for the beach ball!

Makenna loves to go swimming with her daddy. We take her over to the community pool to let her cool off. She loves to swim with her tube and floaties and she is getting better at it every time. 

This Summer!

This summer has been a good one so far. We still have a few more weeks until Tyler starts school. Tyler, Makenna and I have been trying to spend as much together as we can. Makenna loves going to the park, swimming and going to the library. She loves to do just about anything as long as it's with her daddy. I have enjoyed having Tyler home for company and also for some extra help around the house. We have been able to go to the zoo, the lake and the park as a family. We take Makenna to the community pool a lot to go swimming. She has made some good strides in learning how to swim. She still isn't an awesome swimmer, but for being 2 and only practicing a few times...she is doing great! We have been out with friends and family. I am really not looking forward to school starting again, but we will only have 4 semesters left including the one this fall. There is a light! haha!
