Shaylee

This little girl has become quite the little cowgirl lately, she shares her daddys love for horses. And even though she is only 3, she is riding this big horse. Most of the time she wants to ride it all by herself. With out daddy leading or riding with her. This makes mommy alittle nervous! (yes we were riding the horse in our backyard LOL)

I know I don't blog as much about her milestones as I should, but it's kind of hard to say where she is at. She has been speaking in full sentences for what seems like forever. We have full conversations every day. And she shocks me with what she knows and how big her imgaination is. Some funny things she's been saying lately is

*Mom? Are we going to keep that baby forever?

*Mom, why did you get married to my daddy? Where was I when you got married

* I had a dream lastnight that zeeker got ate by a bear. A soft and cuddly bear.

*Umm... Mommy, you just need to text Hayley and see if Emmy can play.

*Give me the computer so I can check my facebook. LOL

I just love this little girl, she keeps me on my toes. She is super smart and knows how to count to 15, all her shapes (even some random ones), all colors, can say and reconize the ABC's, can play a computer game like no other.. This fall she will be going to preschool and probably dance or cheer class. And she is soooo excited! Love you Shay Boom

2 bottom teeth and sitting up

My baby is growing to fast.. He now has 2 bottom teeth the second one popped through on August 6th. And he is starting to sit up. I do put some blankets behind him because he tends to tip over after alot LOL, but it's cute to see him sitting up and playing with toys.

Going for Rides

Since Beaver can get a little boring, we spend alot of days going for rides on the mountain! The kids love it, and it's better then just sitting around the house. On this ride, Shaylee got to sit on top of the tool box for a little bit. She was loving it!

Summer

Knowing our summer days are numbered, we spend almost our entire days outside... Usually this time of year, I start looking forward to fall.. Well not this year, our nights are already getting colder and I'm not to happy about it! It feels like summer just started. One of our average summer days usually goes..morning in the backyard playing in the dirt, lunch at the park, then the afternoon on the lawn playing in the water and riding the jeep. We hope it stays hot until October :)

Animals

Rowdy officially found our pets, and he LOVES them! Especially the cat, when he sees her he gets soooo excited and starts kicking and babbling at her. It's pretty darn cute!

While we took Rowdy up to Primary's. Shaylee hitched a ride down to St.George with my uncle Bobby.. And well, this is what she did.. Looks like she was having lots of fun. McDonalds play place and Swimming.. What more could a 3 year old ask for? She went down on Saturday and came back Monday afternoon. It worked out so nice so we could go to Rowdy's Doctor appointment and just focus on him.

I Took Rowdy to his 6 month baby well appointment on friday. Of course it was just a routine check up but as soon as Dr. Oakden was listening to Rowdy's heart I could tell by the look on his face there was something wrong. Then as he went over to his computer, searching through the files, He said "did we know Rowdy has a heart murmer?" ummm... NO! we didn't know that. So of course I was freaking out.

He wanted us to go up to primary's childrens hospital to see a pediatric cardiologist. So first thing Monday morning just happened to be our appointment (thankfully, but it was still a long weekend)

Ventricular Septal Defect- a fancy way of saying Rowdy has a small hole in his heart.. Kind of scary but the doctor said it will eventually close by it's self, just have to keep a eye on it. Still makes me nervous and worried for him. I just want him to be healthy and happy! We love you bubba!
