Welcome Brody Fox....

My Step Sister had her 1st baby on Wednesday..Brody Fox, came into the world at 7:23p.m. weighing 8lbs 11oz, and measuring 21 inches...he is beautiful...it was a long journey to get him out...:) , I am so proud of Dan'yl she is a trooper...she did a great job..

Made me think of how women are incredible..we are so strong, even when we think we can't go on...we do...we are truly amazing..

I know Danyl will love motherhood..it is very rewarding...very hard, but very rewarding..

Welcome Brody...we are happy you are finally here...(especially your mama and Dada)..

Here is a pic of Brody....he is so cute..

Keaton's First Field Trip...

So..Keaton's preschool had their first field trip the other day..they all got to go to Chevy's Mexican food Restraunt. they got to tour the kitchen, see how they make tortillas etc, at the end they all got to have tacos.

The preschool teacher had all the kids make a shirt with all their handprints and names on it, she calls it their field trip t-shirt, they are to wear it at every field trip.

Keaton was so excited to wear it...until....well, when we put it on him that morning...the shirt was so big, it came down to his knees...he right away said..Oh no...I am not wearing this...I can't wear this...He was so mad that it was to big, he through the biggest fit, and almost did not go to his field trip....Of course when we got there, before they went in, they all stood in line and sang songs..can you tell by the look on Keaton's face he is not thrilled.....It is so funny...I had to take pics of him being a sour puss....

But once he got inside, and they gave him that hat..he was fine....

All in all, it was fun..and we will see what next months field trip brings...

Riding in the car....

It is moments like these that make me happy to be a mom....This was so funny...Keaton driving his little car, and Braedon sitting next to him...as you can tell by the look on his face, he is just praying that he stays in one piece...

I love my boys...

"Chicks Dig me"

Enough said....

I love it..look at his face, he thinks he is a model....

Brother wanted in on the action too....

Brotherly love, Braedon's hair and my messy house.

I love watching my boys interact...(most of the time)..

Keaton is a great big brother, and Braedon just eats it up...He just follows him around ..First thing in the morning , Braedon wants to see Keaton, and he just lights up when he sees him..

they love to wrestle, which always has me a little nervous, but it is cute to watch.

People keep giving me a hard time about Braedon's hair. I have never cut it..I just can't bring myself to do it. it is super long on top, and it has cute curls in the back..it's not that bad is it...he is my baby and once you cut their hair, they seem to look like a little boy instead of a baby..

And yes that is my house at 10:00 in the morning...good thing Jeff is not home to witness it :)

My song to Anna..(turn on your speakers)

If you turn on your sound on your computer...

The first song on my playlist, I am dedicating to Anna...It is Mariah Carey's song Bye Bye..

I always think of her when I hear this...

This is for you Anna..

This is dedicated to Annamarie Sanchez...

It has been 2 years ago today on September 4th (which was labor day that year) that we lost Anna. I can't believe it has been 2 years. It is still very real in our minds, like it happened yesterday. She was taken way to young. she left behind a beautiful daughter, who looks just like her, and a family that misses her every day. there is not a day that goes by that she is not in our thoughts.

So this day is dedicated to you Anna. We love you so much, we miss you, and we know that you are still with us, helping us through are days here on Earth..

Love,

Your Family..

1st day of preschool...

I can't believe it..My little baby is a preschooler now..He was so cute with his little backpack ..4 years went by so fast...

I hope he loves his school, his teacher, and all the new friends he will make..

UGH!!! why do they grow so fast...

I am so proud of the little boy my baby is becoming.......Excet at dinner, then he's a little brat, and I feel like selling him for a dollar on the corner....(just kidding)...:)

Disneyland Vacation..

Well went to Disneyland 2 weeks ago...

It was a lot of fun, it was Keaton's 1st time going and obviously was Braedon's first trip..It was so much fun watching them ooh and aahh at everything in Disneyland..we took a ton of pics, maybe I can put them in a slideshow, if not, here are a few pics...

My Birthday boys...

So since I have not written since February..there are new things to write about...since I cannot remember a lot of them right now...let's start with my birthday boys..

Keaton my oldest turned 4 years old in May..I cannot believe I have a 4 year old..he is going to be starting Preschool tommorrow..I am scared is that normal...he is not ..he is so excited..we went and picked him out a spider man backpack, and he is ready to go..

Braedon is my youngest and he just turned 1 on August 19th...Again,..that went by way to fast...he is busy learning new things every day...especially about all out outlets and plugs..he just loves electricity...:), he is starting to walk, but would rather be carried...he lights up our family with his little personality..we love him...

I blame Cylee Pressley for this....

So I am a total slacker on my blog, and then BFF Cylee, decides Oh I am going to do a blog...well I can't make her let me look like a slacker, so now I gotta keep up on this....

Darn you Cylee Pressley....

Ok, I am actually kind of happy to do it...I am going to post a new family post, and some pics , if I can figure it out...

More to come...

Erica.
