Happy Birthday Taylan!!!

Taylan turned 5 on monday. At first she wanted a birthday party and wanted to invite both the Am and PM preschool class but we ended up going to Provo on friday and going to build a bear and staying in the motel with her cousins and swimming. Then the next day we went to Sandy to the Myan where the divers came and talked to her it was alot of fun. Then on monday we had a party for family it was a long birthday but it was alot of fun it is just hard for me to believe that she is 5.

SAD WEEK

Last week was a hard one for me it started out on Tuesday when Taylan went to Pre- school early to get tested to see if she was ready to start reading and she was so she brought home three books and read them all to me I was so proud of her and it made me really start thinking about how fast she is growing up. She will be turning 5 in March and it is just amazing to me that we have had her for 5 years. She is now such a good girl and loves to learn and dance, she is an awesome big sister and loves her brother so much.
Then on Wednesday I took down Ryders crib and changing table I know he is almost three, but I said I would leave him in his crib for as long as I could so he would keep taking naps, then that came to an end So he got bunk beds and it was so sad for me to think that I no longer had a baby. The crib has been set up for 5 years straight so it was very hard for me to take them down but he keeps telling me he is a big boy even though he does not look like one I need to let him grow up. He has had such a fun time jumping off the top bunk and we have not had any injuries so far (knock on wood). I love my Ryder man he is crazy and all boy!

It really is sad that kids grow up so fast. I need to be better at enjoing every moment of our lives and not worry about the little things.

Poor Ryder

I know my poor Ryder. You would have thought he was being all wild and jumping off of something or wrestling with someone but NO he was just getting some food. I will tell the story every Thursday Ryder goes to my Grandma Thompsons for 45 minutes while I help with Taylans dance class and he really loves going. But this week might have changed that. They were out in my Grandpas shop and my grandpa and Grandma was sitting across from each other and my grandpa was giving him an apple and he was just walking back to my grandma and tripped and fell and hit his forehead on the front of a wood chair. My grandma calls me at Donn V's and is very upset asks if I can come home so I rush there thinking he just fell down no big deal but I get there my grandpa is holding him with a towel on his head I take it off and his goose egg is sticking out like 2 inches and his eyes were looking weird so we take him down to the clinic worried about a concussion. All in all he is fine he looks a little bit abused and will for a while. I Love my Ryder man.(Wondering what on his cheek just 1 of 100 stickers he got from the clinic and my grandma)

Christmas 2008

Well I have been a little slow on my Christmas post and I have got a comment or two to get moving so here it goes. We had such a good Christmas. It's hard to really enjoy it with how crazy busy it gets but it comes and goes and you are always left with such great memories and you seem to forget all the stress. So I am just going to do a slide show because I have so many pictures and it to hard to pick just a few. I hope everyone had a great holiday season!
