Craziness!




Wow, it's been a long time! We have had so many wonderful things going on.....Holidays, Birthdays, lil Vacations, selling and buying houses....... Did I mention BUYING our new house:) It was the craziest thing and how it happened... It happened so fast everybody was so confused including us. But here is the story:
Well since Ryan has his Reactor's License we thought that it would be so easy to put our house on the market and see if we could get what we wanted out of it .... and if not who cares we like our house and we could take it back off the market...right! We thought no hurry we'll wait for the perfect offer, thinking a few months down the road we would be possibly packing and finding a new house??? OHHHH no we put it on the market at Tuesday night at 10:00 after our bowling league, Thursday night a couple came and looked at it and put a FULL price offer on it!!! Less than 48 hours.... Amazing! So now this is serious and we now have a closing date in 25 days... We are totoally shocked and thinking CRAP, we need to pack our whole house, yard, sheds, dogs and Baylee, we need to find our perfect new house, we need to move everything before it snows, we nedd to attend all holiday festivities and try to make all of this happen in 25..24...23..days!!!! So after the busiest, most stressful month of our entire lives we are settled in our new house and are all totally in love with it, the area, everything about it worked out perfect:) We are so grateful for all our family that was so much help during the move out and in, it was so much help and we owe so many people for it.
We even were able to put up a few Christmas decorations and a tree just in time for Baylee's 2nd Christmas! We are so thankful for such a wonderful holiday season and everyone that we are able to spend it with. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
P.S. If you ever think about moving out, I suggest don't do it the way we did:)
Here are a few pictures to catch up on.

Is it Right, Is it Wrong???


So I am going through the million step process of applying for school once again. Every day I have a different feeling about it and compare all the pro's and con's of going back. I am so excited, but still not sure if it is the right thing to do??

Pro's: Help my family out financially?
Further my education, for myself???
Back up plan????
Good Career after kids are grown???
Better options for Insurance???
Fulfill my needs as being a stay at home mom part time????

Con's: Feeling alright about daycare and the prices???
Getting ourselves into more debt with student loans???
Being away from Baylee???
Finding the PERFECT job after wards HAHA????
Being able to actually help with money and debts in the end???
Having another child in the near/far future???

See, I just don't know? I guess you never know until you try. So onward we go with the insane checklist I need to get done. Thank goodness for my wonderful sister Kris, that so incredibly smart and caring, she has already helped me out so much and I could never thank for enough for everything that she does for me. Thanks Kris... I love Ya!

Wow! I have been very bad and haven't updated my poor blog for you people. It has been such a crazy fun summer, more camping trips(that got cut short by a mysterious blizzard), bear lake trips, pool trips, BBQ's, fun in the yard and of course shopping trips!! OHHHH Yeah and now chasing Baylee around like a mad man, because she is now walking and it is the cutest darn thing I've ever seen.. I love this stage when they are waddling around so unbalanced with their tiny arms in the air. She actually started walking up at Bear Lake at our family trip. It was in the sand also, Wow! We were all sitting in our beach chairs enjoying the lake and sun, watching the kids play in the sand, when I turned back to check on Baylee playing in the sand and she was WALKING towards me!!!! I yelled to everyone to watch. It was amazing, I was cheering so loud for her while the tears were building in my eyes. It is just so amazing to see your own little kid learning to walk. It is really indescribeable to tell you how this made me feel. It has been so much fun to watch her learn and get better every day. Ever since then, we are on the go non stop, that is all she wants to do, NO eating, NO sleeping, just walking:)
We had so much fun in Bear Lake, this is Ryan's and I's favorite time of the year. Everything about it is so fun and this year was even more fun because Baylee was older that she got to play. She is one fearless little girl too, she went right in to the lake, didn't even hesitate, she loved the sand, exploring the condo, she is just so fun and easy where ever we go. I loved watching her and her cousins playing together, they get along so well and have so much fun together. I can't wait for the many more years to come:)
Besides Bear Lake it is now football season and Ryan and I love it. We can't get enough. I wouldn't even try to get a hold of us on Sunday nights, Monday nights and sometime Thursday nights for a couple of months:) GO Patriots and Cardinals!!!
Well sorry that was pretty random, but there is so much I just can't remember everything:(

4th of July






This was Baylee's first 4th of July, Last Year she was three days over due on the 4th of July!!!! I wasn't a happy girl... We had so much fun, we went to the Kaysville parade, just like we do every year. It seemed like Baylee really enjoyed it. She loved looking at all the floats and collecting candy with her cousins, Bella, Finn and Elli. Then we went to the Layton carnival and Baylee ate her first snow cone, which of course she loved. We all had lunch and then watched Bells jump in the jump house, which was so funny because when her turn was over she refused to get out.
Later that night we went over to some old friends for a BBQ and fireworks, it was so fun to see these friends agian and catch up. They all have kids, so it made it so easy for everyone to hang out. We did some fireworks in the street and of course these were pretty lame fireworks so all the dads had to go build some of their own:) baylee did so good and played so well with all the kids even though she was the youngest one there. She is always so social and friendly to everyone. We came home just in time to watch the series of cities light off their big fireworks, we watched from our roof and then made a fire in our fire pit and lit some of our own. It was a perfect first 4th for Baylee:)

Camping up at Hades






Well we just got back from a big camping trip with Ryan's family, we all went up to Ashley National forest to camp Hades. We are so lucky to have my grandparents, who let us borrow their big motor home. It makes it so much easier to go camping with Baylee, there is everything we need in there. We had a lot of fun, we played in the river, went on long walks, watched the dogs swim in the river, cooked good meals and played games. It is so beautiful up there, moutians and green all around.
Baylee took her first steps up camping, it was so cute and exciting, she took four in a row and then another three, then she realized what she was doing and got mad and sat down. Now when we try to have her do it again she knows what we are doing and doesn't even try.. It was exciting to see her do it and I know she is not long from taking off on her own now:) Baylee did so good up camping, she is so amazing to me, she is so laid back and is comfortable anywhere, she never hesitated a second before she jumped right into the dirt and played, she went swimming in the freezing cold river with all the grown ups, she played in her wagon the whole time, she ate all the camping food and she even napped and slept really well in the motor home.
I have to tell you about this place up there, it is called Defa's, it is a Dude Ranch with little cabins where people can go camping and fish and ride horses, it has a little cafe and saloon. So it was only a couple minutes away from our camp ground and you could go there and pay three dollars and take a shower..... So me and my mother in law went up there a couple of times and it was the creepiest place ever.... it reminded me of the movie, "Chainsaw masacre" because when we got there, it was like the whole town stopped and stared with there two teeth smiling at us. It was like they were all related and killed or ate all the campers that came in there. No matter what time it was they were always sitting in there lawn chairs, in their overalls, drink in one hand, cigarette in the other, just staring.... CREEPY!! but we got in and got out, we took the fastest showers and probably barely survived!!!
It was a fun trip, too short of course, but glad to be back home. Can't wait for the next one.
