My new love... RPM which is a cycling class at the gym. My legs are looking sooo good!
Trip to California.. Disneyland, Newport and getting lost in down town LA. and me throwing up a little in the car.
Doing a lot of self reflecting and trying to figure some stuff out.
I love Chandler!

Happy Birthday Parker baby boo!
Okay so he is not a baby anymore.
But he will always be my little guy. I have never had a kid that wanted to grow up so much! Maybe it's because he is the youngest and wants to do everything his older brothers and sister do. Parker is having so much fun in preschool. He would go everyday if he could. (he goes 3 days) He is still a cuddeler and i love it! When I fix his hair he tells me he wants a mohawk! He knew his birthday was coming up and kept asking us how many more night times. When is was his birthday September 1st he kept jumping up and down and throwing his arms out saying it's my birthday it's my birthday! He really enjoyed his day. He got a new foot ball, sponge bob dominos and of course some new battery operated trains. He will get a new bike when it cools down. It is still to hot to ride outside so i didn't want to get him a bike and have it sit in the garage. It would be torture. He wanted a thomas the tank engine birthday cake.
He didn't let us finish singing happy birthday before he blew out the candels. What can I say.
I love this little guy!

Somethings gotta change
I'm so up and down these days. But I am having more ups than downs. Something that I'm very happy about is I feel like being creative again. If you know me this is huge for me. I love to make things anything you can be creative at. I just made some beautiful new necklaces to put on my business blog. I need to get some pics taken and also make a couple of new pairs of flips flops. Then some business cards and put some vinyl back on my car. At least I can cut out my own vinyl now since i have a cricut machine to do it. So i'm excited and I hope i can get business just using my blog. We will see i guess. That is why i'm only going to put a few things on there to see if I get any response.
I do miss exercising and have to wear my boot four more weeks. That makes me sooo sad. I miss going to the gym and have dreamed that I was taking step class. I just want to cycle really bad but i'm sure i will have to ease back into it. I have some physical therapy i'm going to have to do at home. My foot is so jacked up and feels very strange at times. My nerves are acting strange. House is getting more organized everyday. I just can't keep up with my kids right now and they know it. The boot has slowed me down and I just keep on them like i need to. So around my birthday i should be bootless! yeah!
I have got to get off soda again. My body is mush. For me excersing and eating right go hand in hand. So i've decided this is the perfect oppurtunity to get my healthy eating habits back and when i do get back to the gym i can start firming up again. So no more soda as of tomorrow. I've done it so many times so i know that i can do it.
I'm really not ready for the week. Jace's homework is killing me. and he has been having to correct some school work to. He is struggling right now in school and i know it's because of him having a horrible third grade year with a sub most of the year. He needs to stop comparing himself to others and hayley. She effortlessly gets good grades and he doesn't understand why it's harder for him. I feel bad for him. I told him to just try his best that's all he can do. and to let his teacher know if he doesn't understand. he's embarassed to ask her.
So life is getting better. slowly but it is. we have some stuff going on right now that could really bring us down. but we just stay positive and know it will all work out for the best. If you are close to me you know but i don't want to put it out there on my blog. It's a sad situation and i hope it will be over soon.
This week is busy but what week isn't. On top of everything else i have to call the dentist because instead of getting my butt off the ground and getting a staple remover i used my teeth and broke a little piece of tooth off my front tooth. It's really little but i need to get it fixed. I also get to go get my yearly check up. I have another lump in my left breast this time. I'm sure it's more fabroids (not sure if i spelled it right) but want to make sure.
wow i'm sure getting personal right now.
well here is to a good week and i hope i can stay organized, be a good mom, good wife and good to myself.

Parker couldn't be happier!
Our little Parker is so excited for preschool!
He will be four years old on September first so he is more than ready. He was excited to wear his new spiderman back pack.
He keeps telling me he wants to grow up like daddy so i'm sure he feels more like a big boy now going to school like his brothers and sister.
When we got to school (it's at Mrs. Shannons house) he put his backpack in his cubby then we found his name on his desk. There was playdoh on the table so he had fun playing with it. Gave me a hug and off I went. He had a great day and he can't wait to go back again. Now for me. It was bitter sweet. I was alone for the first time without having to pay for a sitter. I ran some errands really fast then ended up going to Ross and finding some really cute stuff for the house. I found a frame I liked for a family photo I finally enlarged. It was a mirror though and was gold.
So I painted it and took the mirror out.
I love it! I think it turned out great. I also bought a really cute se of Halloween ceramic pumkin bowls. I don't know why I love Halloween so much whenever I first see the signs of Halloween in stores my heart starts beating hard and I get so excited. I love that time of year.
I'm feeling so good right now considering broken foot and attorney stuff. I haven't felt this happy in a long time. I feel yucky from not being able to work out but I'm getting a lot of other things on track in my life. I will just have to cycle off this tummy that has reappeared dang it.

Happy Birthday Carter!!
Carter turned 7 yrs old on August 6th.
I can't believe he is seven and i'm sadden to think how time is flying by with him. He is such a sweetheart. He was the best baby, toddler, and little boy. He is going through a rough spot right now with his behavior but we have has some really good days lately. He is really into music and will be taking guitar lessons when we can afford to do it. He really needs his own thing and that is what he wants to do. You should see him rock out on guitar hero. He is the best in our family, he can play on expert. He is Parkers buddy and he really misses him when he is at school. I scored on his bday gift. I found a brand new rock band for him for 85 dollars on ebay. That is what he wanted so i'm glad i found it for half price and free shipping. We celebrated at grandma connies house.
Make a wish! 
This year i've started to alternate bday partys. Next year he will be 8 so he will have a big party. He is enjoying 1st grade and likes his friends. He is growing more independent everyday. I love Carters smile. It is the best!

hope it goes well...
Well i'm just waiting around to go to the foot dr. this morning. I hope it is good news and that my foot isn't worse than the urgent care dr thought. I'm just sick of limping around, hurting, not keeping up on my house, and most of working out at the gym. I miss it so bad. It makes me feel so good and its a great way to start my day. I hope to be there soon. In cycling class sweating my butt off. I'm eating so my junk and drinking so much soda. I'm bloated and feeling yuck. It doesn't help that we are dealing with some family issues and attorneys right now. I hate it.
I have the cutest idea how to paint/decorate hayleys bathroom and i can't wait to do it. I need to paint all the kids rooms and bathrooms. I have the paint just need to feel good enough to do. I was going to paint my bedroom but the color doesn't clash too bad with my bedding so it will be last on the list if i even do it. Just trying to get the main areas downstairs organized and decorated.
Carter got in trouble yesterday and had to go talk to Mr. Merrill (the principal). He actually really likes Carter and tells me how he is such a great kid. I'm sure he was shocked to see Carter in trouble. He didn't want to stop talking and wouldn't listen to his teacher. He ran out of the class and hid somewhere. GREAT! what a great way to start the new year. Luckily he has a sweet and understanding teacher. Hope today goes better. I did bribe him with extra wintergreen gum his favorite if he is good at school.
I want to try to blog about more of the day to day things not just important events or fun things we do. I'm excited to be back in the area, close to the school and friends. The kids are loving it. It is nice to see familiar faces at church too. Even though the ward has split into thirds since we moved there are people we know. I'm not happy that i got called to cub scouts again. That is the one calling i was praying that i wouldn't get. I want to cry when he asked me. But i'm going to give it a try. It's being the bear assistant so at least it isn't the leader this time. And jace is a bear so he is very excited.
