What a year this has been.

So i know that I've been bad at not posting things that are going on in my life. Well here you go I'll get it all done in one post. Stephen has gotten us moved into our bedroom, I'll post pictures later when it's all done and cleaned. He's been working hard and trying to get the house ready so we can refinance our home. I'm so thankful for what he has done for me and given me in the last year. He's been working hard at work but is still able to come home and play with the kids. Ashley is getting bigger every day. It seems like she is learning so much out of what she does. She loves to color and play with her brother and of course watch her cartoons. I mean what kid her age doesn't like cartoons. But no she is getting smart. Every time I'm on the phone she has her own phone that she fallows me around the house and repeats what I'm saying. I sure do love that girl. She has changed my life the minute I had her. Ryker is getting so big. He was wanting to walk now and he's taking his little steps here and there. Tonight he walked from the coffee table to the couch at my friends house. I was so thrilled. He talks alot but most of the time he is saying daddy of course.

Resently we went to salt lake for christmas with Stephens mom and dad. We had so much fun there. We even got to eat at one of the places that man v food went and ate at. IT was so fun. We were able to eat our lunch outside in the middle of the day and not be freezing. There was no snow there and there was green grass. We even took the kids to the aquarium for the first time. Ashley loved every moment of it. WE got great pictures of her there. So I would have to say that this year has been so much fun. We got to have Ryker's first birthday this year and Ashley got to have some preschool. But, one of the best things about this year is that we got to move into our bedroom. Steve has done such a great work on it. I love her to death. Well here are some pictures of all our great adventures.

Ryker's First birthday.

So for ryker's first birthday he had a blast. We ended up giving him two birthday parties, one at my parents house and then the other at Steve's mom and dad's home. He enjoyed eating the cakes but he didn't car so much for opening his presents which is fine. I just can't believe that he is a year old. I love him so much. He has been a handful with all the hospital visits and such but I don't know what I would do with out him. He completed my family and I love him so much.

Christmas.

So this year for christmas we're going to salt lake with steve's parents and our kids. It's going to be so much fun, I can't wait. We're leaving on the 23, which is actually our 4 year anniversary and we're staying until the 26 which is that sunday. Can't wait I'm in need of some vacation time even though we're only going to salt lake.

Our Carpet.

Yes we finally have carpet in our bedroom. Here soon maybe this weekend we can move in and actually sleep in the bedroom and not in the living room. But oh how steve has done so much and so has my father in law. Don't know what we would do with out him. He built our dressers and even more and they look so beautiful. thanks Mike your such a life saver.
