STUCK....

I was emptying the garbage this morning and when I came in the lid was gone so..... I went looking for it and this is what I found. Kurt thought it would be fun to wear the lid, that is until he couldnt get it off and I actually had a hard time getting it off but we eventually got it off, silly kid.

Mr.Mischevious

So Mr. Kurt has found a way for him to get to what he wants. He has learned that if he takes a bar stool and slides it to his destination that he can get up on the counter and get his "Treat" or whatever it might be. This is how I found him on 2 different occasion's on Sunday. Caught red handed in the cookie jar and then licking the frosting off the cupcakes. This isn't the first time or the last I'm sure. He started does this when i had suckers but now that the suckers are gone its been the cookies. Silly lil man but we love him tons.

Becca

These are Beccas 5 year pictures. She is so my lil diva, super star, american idol or whatever else. She loves performing her lil dances she makes up for us in the living room, posing, singing, see is always doing something that someday might require an agent. ha ha thats something my brother Jake teases her about all the time. We love our very animated Boo!

Look whos 30!

All the helpers blowing out the FIRE, oh I mean the candles :)

Feel the heat from those candles.

Kurt enjoying the frosting off the beaters.

The BIG 30 pancakes.

Jedd turned 30 yesterday. I cant believe that we are this old. I only have one more month left in my twentys, insert crying here. For Jedds birthday me and him went out Saturday night with his brother and wife. Jedd and Brandons birthdays are 2 days apart. We went to Ogden and ate at the Prairie Schooner and then went to Wise Guys Comedy Club for a hypnosis show. I havent laughed that hard in a verrry long time. It was a great time. Sunday he was officially out of his twentys and now 30! We made him breakfast, the girls really wanted to do this for him. Of course I get left with the big mess afterwards. We went to church, came home, had his favorite dinner. Later we had a few family over for cake and ice cream. That's about it, ya know when you get older it just aint like when you were a kid. Love ya babe.

Happy 5th Birthday to our Boo!

For Becca's birthday we took her to Logan so she could do what ever she wanted. We gave her a $20 to spend on whatever she wanted and............

this is the end product of the $20. She spent it all on 1 thing, a cinderella carriage and accessories.

She choose to eat at Golden Corral. She never eats enough for what you pay for a Buffett, but oh well it was her birthday. She just likes the dessert bar the best.

The Servers singing Happy Birthday to her. She didnt know what to think.

Becca with her Birthday Dance cake. Our lil dancer, she is always dancing around.

The cake..... I think it turned out fairly good considering this was my first time with fondant. I was informed by Becca that I put that dancers on the wrong cakes. She thought the pink dancer should go on top of the pink cake and that the green dancer should have went on the green cake. Theres always a critic.

The Cream filled Cupcakes........ YUMMY

Presents

The Karaoke player we got for her. Two of her favorite things to do are DANCE and SING all day.
She also got her ears pierced on Saturday but i failed to take my camera in the mall. I was so mad at myself. She didnt pretty good considering.

Cake time

BLOW.......

Our future Rock Star in the making.....

Becca with all her gifts. Thanks everyone.

Loving every minute of it. She couldnt get enough of it. American Idol here we come or maybe just Malad Idol :)

Becca singing her lil heart out. She was eating every moment of it up. Our lil STAR!

Things about Kurt

This was at Christmas time. My dad gave him a BIG popcorn treat thing that he had received but didn't want, as you can see Kurt loved it.

He loves anything farm. He know all the farm animal sounds. He especially loves horses and cows. His next favorite animals are a dog and cat.

Here he is riding is Uncle Trevor. He does the horse sound while riding and the click click sound.

He is getting into everything and onto everything. He climbed on the bench and then onto his highchair, luckily in front of me. He then wanted down and proceeded to put his hands out for help, lil stinker.

He loves to brush his teeth, but doesn't want or like any help from anyone. Sorry bud but mom being a Dental assistant cant help it but has to make sure your cute smile stays cute :)

I cant believe how much my lil man is growing, it is a wee bit sad. He is 20 months old but looks so much older since he is 34 inches tall and weighs 30lbs. He has been such a joyful addition to our family.

Here are some of Kurt's new things/words/and dislikes:

New:

He talks so much and is learning new words everyday. Some are: he has for a long time said mom, dad, hello, hi, bye, juice, uh oh, no, shoe, toes and other words. New ones are: Bella (our dog), Josh (uncle), Brex (cousin), pompa(grandpa), please, thank you, giddy up, eat, down, fall, get out, funny, he can count 1-5. he knows where and can say eyes, nose, mouth, ears, hair. He pretty much will learn a new word everyday.

He likes:

his sisters (especially playing with them), he loves his sippy cup always want something to drink, bananas, crackers, chips and dip, ice cream, pop tarts, suckers, pretty much most foods, playing with his farm animals and cars, He loves books, baths, his binky, blankets,being outdoors

He dislikes:

naps sometimes, water in the face (at bath time), being told no, not being able to play outside right now, not getting what he wants, having mom brush his teeth, having his diaper changed, getting dressed or undressed.

Some might think i am going over board with this post but I wanted to journal this while i remember it. Thanks for reading. We love our Kurt.

Can we please go sledding!!

My lil snow baby. Jedd thinks he looks like the kid from the christmas story movie with that hat he is wearing.

Ella loving every minute in the cold.

Kurt preferred riding the 4-wheeler with Dad, not sledding.

Becca holding on for dear life. She isn't much for it, especially when she crashes. She looks scared in the picture.

Ella couldn't get enough. She was mad when we made her leave.

Becca in tears. A yearly tradition when sledding.

Kurt tasting some snow.

My cute lil guy all bundled up.

This is Kurt and Ella about to crash. Kurt wasn't happy when they crashed.

So all Christmas Break Ella kept asking when we were going to take them sledding. We told her when it snowed some more then we would take them. Well it snowed and guess what we did. SLEDDING!!! Ella was excited, Becca was also but hadn't been feeling well so she didn't last long and Kurt didn't like it, especially the snow in the face and when him and Ella wiped out. Kurt did love riding the 4-wheeler though. It was a good first sledding trip but there will be many more I'm sure.
