Cute hair for Valentines Day

I absolutely love having a girl that will let me do her hair. I expirament all the time on her hair and most of the time it tuns out pretty cute. This hair do was two different hair styles merged into one. If you can't tell I made hearts out of the pigtails and criss-crossed the back. I got tons of complements at church. Syd looked so beautiful with her red dress and black heart bow. It's so fun having a girl!!

 

 

 

My dear sweet Sydnee

 

Syd wanted to watch for her friend Sarah to come over so she insisted to stand on the window sill. She was so cute she kept saying over and over "Sarah!! Come over and play Sarah! Come quick!" Her and Sarah get a long so well. We love it when Sarah comes over to play.

 

This picture was taken in curtasy of Brandon's brothers, Travis and Radlee. Syd shows butt crack at all possible costs. Not on purpose of course, but I guess that is the price you pay for having a potty trained toddler.

Some cute ones

I just thought I would post some pictures of my cute little guy. Dawson is growing like crazy. He eats like a true boy and pounds the food down. He is such a happy chill baby and loves to laugh and make funny faces. He loves to watch his big sister dance and be silly. He makes the funniest noises and love it when you sing to him. He truly is an amazing kid!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Two cute Kids

Before I begin I would just like to say that I promise I do get my kids dressed everyday and I do get my girls hair done also. Apparently these were days that were very slow going and lazy. I love how my kids get along so well together. Syd is so caring and loving to her little brother and Dawson absolutely adores his big sister. We are so lucky and blessed.

 

 

 

Cuddly Bug

The other day Dawson woke up from his nap and Brandon happened to be home so I gave Dawson to him. I went to go check on something and came back to Dawson cuddling with his Daddy. It was so sweet and precious. I am so grateful to have a husband that is so attentive and loves his kids so much! I sure love my boys!!

 

 

 

 

The matching duo

For Bekah's baby shower before Carter or Dawson was born I got them matching outfits minus the color and we finally got them together and took pictures. I'm glad I chose the blue one for Carter because of his blue eyes and Dawson's for his redish orangeish hair. Oh they are so CUTE!!

 

 

 

 

Meeting cousins for the first time

 

 

 

At the beginning of January we all got the opportunity to meet my amazing and beautiful cousin Katie's two adorable kids. It was so much fun they played games and we tried to get a successful picture of all of them. Well, atleast they were all in the picture, right? Katie it was so good to see you, your awesome husband, and finally meet your oh so cute little ones.

Failed to mention

P.s Brandon got a new calling. It is an eye opener and we are relying completely on faith. Brandon was called to be the 2nd Counselor in our Bishopric. We are excited and know that we will recieve blessings. Brandon is so amazing. He is patient, kind, and such a worthy priesthood holder. I am so grateful to be married to a man that loves his family and is a righteous example to me and the kids. Babe we love you and thank you for all that you do for me, the kids, and so many others!

6 Months old already?

Well Dawson has been 6 months now for almost a week now and I am just now getting to posting on the updates of how he is doing. He getting so big, but he is pretty average for his age which is a first for our family so far because Syd was always on smaller side of the scale and still is.
Dawson weighs 16 lbs 14 oz. which is exactly two pounds bigger from his 4 month appointment. He is 25 3/4 for length and his head circumference is 16 3/4 inches round. So he growing fast and steady.
He is such a happy and good kid. He loves rice cereal and so far carrots and bananas. He can be a little stinker though because he still could care less about standing for a long period of time and sitting on his own for a long period of time. He can sit while holding on to something, but the doctor just says he's a lazy easy going baby and nothing is wrong with him.
He loves to smile and play with his sister. He is actually really sick right now with a nasty cold and cough. I feel so sorry for the kid especially at night. He can't breath and his voice is so raspy and his cough is still so dry, but no fevers so that we are extremely thankful for. It is kind of funny sounding though we he babbles and talks his voice is so manly sounding.
On a side note Syd has been completely potty trained for sometime now, I just keep forgetting to post that, but she is doing awesome and we are so proud of her and are so grateful for not having to by diapers for her anymore, just pull ups for night time. That I can handle. Well the kids are tired and ready for their naps, so I better get goinh. Until next time!
