caught up

I'm all caught up but just FYI there are 7 new posts! (Not including this one) I'm gonna try to not do that again!

Corn Maze

One of my favorite things to do every year is the corn maze. It is so well done. Probably the only down side is that it was like 88 degrees yesterday and so pretty hot the whole time. And to top it off Troy had this Dino sweater he wanted to wear and he would not let us take it off of him so he wore it the whole time. I find myself saying this almost every year but but I told Josh it will be even more fun next year when our baby can enjoy it more!

Getting into trouble

Troy thought it would be an awesome idea to stick his hand into the exshust pipe of Josh's truck. He's lucky that it wasn't hot but he must have been working on it for a minute before we noticed because he was completely covered. This picture pretty much sums up Troy these days, into everything and only wants to do things that are his ideas. We love the heack out of him though!

Alyssa 3 months (End of September)

Alyssa is 3 months now. She is such an easy baby and I wish she would not grow up so fast. I have really enjoyed having a new baby. She is such an easy going baby and very smiley and sweet. She loves to coo. She is such a chunk and nursing has never gone so well for me. I have plenty on milk and no pain. I'm really looking forward to seeing how much she weighs at her next appointment. We love you baby Alyssa.

Enchiliada fiesta

We went to the Enchilada Fiesta at the end of September and had a lot of fun! Grandma Robin and Papa came to play with us too. We rode the mini ponies, ferris wheel, Josh threw a 64 MPH pitch, rode a bull, and we did a big slide ride. It was pretty fun. I got a lot of fun pictures of papa and I thought for sure I had gotten one of grandma too but I guess not. We are glad they came to play with us. We were planning to catch the parade but because I was unclear when it started and then Alyssa needed to nurse and well we completely missed it. Luckily the kids didn't realize that they had missed the whole thing. Oh well maybe next year.

3 Kids!

Trying to get my three kids together to take a picture and cooperate is quite a task and I just may be working on trying to get a good one the rest of my life but these turned out pretty cute. I feel like 3 kids was not as bad as most people made it out to be. I think the switch from 1 to 2 was the worst so far for me. I had this only child who my life revolved around and then bam she had a brother and I had to figure how to split my time and the attention they got etc. Three definately has it challenges but it's going pretty good and I love it! I have 3 special JOYS in my life.

Random post

Hailey really wanted to do a camp out one Saturday after Daddy coming home from one with his brothers and and the other one where Josh took himself and the kids camping. She set it up all by herself and even packed snacks! It was fun!

I thought this picture was so cute of Troy and Alyssa holding hands. I did not suggest it.

Troy wearing daddy shoes. "Shoes" is one of the words he knows well and says often. What a Cutie!

We have all really been enjoying our baby Alyssa! She is sweet and easy going and such a precious little baby! Love her, love her, LOVE HER!

catching up Labor day Weekend

I have so much Catching up tp do but I'm determined because I love my blog books so this is going pretty far back. For Labor day weekend we made the 6 hour trip up to Show Low AZ. Josh's grandma has a cabin up there. Well there was never a dull moment and we pack so many fun things into the weekend and the kids had such a blast with all of there cousins. All the married with children groups stayed at the cabin and that worked pretty well because when all the kids we're up early it was no big deal. We went on a hike the rim canyon hike, went to Hawley Lake (georgous!), went to the go carts, went out to dinner(just the adults), played a lot of games! It was fun! I wish this lake was closer because it was such a sight! We had a ton of fun! And we even got sleep at night!
