Lots going on....(-:

Warning: Huge update...lots of photos!

We went to Seven Peaks a couple weeks ago with our cousins.  

 Jefrie and Eastyn loved the wave pool.

 Nolan had fun chillin with Auntie Tawnia under a tree so mommy could swim with the girls.

 Eastyn had a lot of fun playin with the tubes. And  Jefrie almost fell asleep laying in one. (sorry no pic)

 Last week Nolan went swimming for the first time.  He actually liked it!

 See!  He was a happy boy because he went swimming.  

 The girls just love swimming and I love their life jackets!  They are so nice that they can swim all by themselves....(Eastyn doesnt want you to touch her, she wants to do it by herself)

 They really liked riding on Grandma's and daddy's backs.

We also went on a staycation in Salt Lake last week cuz Aaron had to work night and day for foothill village's sidewalk sales.  The girls and I were excited to stay in a hotel.  It took them a while to fall asleep though.

 When we woke up we went to the zoo while daddy was at work

 (it was interesting being alone with all 3 kids....lets just say i wont do it again for a while)

 They really liked the seals

 Eastyn got scared by the polar bear because it swam right in front of her by the glass...she cried.

After that we met daddy at Foothill Village and played around and got thier faces painted.

 My little kitty cat

 and lil butterfly

On the 22nd Eastyn turned 2!

 this was her cake i made for her.  Eastyn and I went out shopping and she picked it all by herself.

 Grandpa Crider was able to get work off to come see us for her birthday.  Kim and Kiernan came up from St. George too.

 My cute lil birthday princess!

Presents: 

 Daddy showed the girls the right way to hold the bat and showed them how to hit. :-)

 They both did really good hitting the ball and they didnt want to stop playing for cake. lol

 mmmmmm...........cake!

Cutest picture of Grandpa Crider and smiley lil Nolan.

2 months old

2 months already! 

 Nolan just seems sooo much bigger!  At his Dr.'s apt, they measured him and he is 3 inches longer since his last visit.

He is 22.25 inches long = 22%

weighs 9.9 lbs. =7%

head is 15.25 inches =45%

He is such a happy baby, when the girls are being pills, its so nice to be smiled and coed at by my little man. He really is a good baby and rarely cries.

For 4th of July fireworks we went to G&G cobbley's house and watch them from thier front lawn.   They were right above us!  It was awesome.  Grandpa brought out the ear muffs so the girls wouldnt complain that it was too loud.  Jefrie loved wearing them but Eastyn didnt want them on but kept saying "loud."  Jefrie was hilarious!  She was saying "wow, whooow, thats amazing!"  the whole time.  Eastyn didnt sit still to watch them but looked up every once in a while.

K-man's birthday

We took a little vacation to St. George for Kiernans birthday last weekend. (im horrible and didnt get any pics with family members)

 We went to our favorite splash park....Me and my baby brain forgot Eastyns swim suit, luckily we had an extra shirt of Kiernans.

 Lil K- man turned 3

 We went swimming for his biurthday.  Auntie Stacie came from Colorado to visit, The girls loved playing with her.

 I love these life jackets!  Jefrie can swim all by herself with it and she's not affraid. 

It was a nice vacation but im glad to be back so my girls will get on their schedules again and stop being cranky.

My little man is a month old!!!!

 Stretching

 Nolan is such a good baby, only cries when he is hungry or getting tired.  He sleeps really well at night but he has been starting to be wide awake after his 5:00 ish feeding. Its been so nice to just wake up Aaron so he can feed him at that time. :-) 

His sisters love playing next to him on his little play gym.  

 And he loves when they give him attention.  They both are big helpers with Nolan. 

Eastyn is being silly, I think she enjoys the play gym more than Nolan does right now.

 SOOO ADORABLE!!!

I was so excited to actually get a picture of him smiling!  He is so precious.

So today was a good day, We didn't turn on the tv at all and it was so nice! I finally have the energy to get on a good schedule again and do things with my girls and get some things done around the house.  Lets just hope I can keep it up.  Here are some silly pics of the girls today.

 Jefrie found this bib and has been wearing it all day, the hat goes great with it dont you think?  :-)

This was the dress Jefrie was wearing today and Eastyn walked around the house just holding it like this talking on her phone.

Lil project

I have done wooden names for my girls rooms and now that we have a name for our sweet boy, I was finally able to buy stuff to do his name.  (I had the girls names done WAY before they were born.)

 Jefrie painted her wooden helicopter while I painted Nolan's stuff and she did such a great job!

 -She makes the funniest expressions for pictures-

Here it is:

All my kids have the 1st year monthly frame painted the same color as their name, Im just glad I could find the same one for Nolan.

Baby Nolan

Nolan Paul was born May 4th.  He weighed 6 lbs. 13 oz. and he was 19 inches long.  My water actually broke this time.  Jefrie (newly potty trained) was in the room with me and as I was running to the toilet saying "uh oh! uh oh! uh oh!"  She asked me, "mommy did you pee your pants?"  LOL  

Luckily Aaron was only 20 minutes away so I called my soon to be sister in law to come over to watch the girls.  We got to the hospital, got my epidural (LOVE THEM), and 4 hours later he was here. :-)

 The girls loved him right away

 first family pic with 5

 Eastyn lost interest pretty quick but Jefrie just wanted to keep holding him.

 He was baby Cobbley for the 2 days we were in the hospital because Aaron and I could not agree on any names.  Finally we both made compromises and signed the birth certificate.  If you know Aaron you know where we got Nolan from.

 So handsome!  I wonder what color his eyes will be.  They are not as dark as Eastyn's so Im hoping they will be green like his daddy's eyes.

 On our way home!

 Sisterly love

 My mom came out to help for a week and it was such a blessing!  Thank you sooooo much mom!!  Jefrie got her nails painted for the first time. 

 1st football

 The girls can't get enough of him....I hope that doesn't change.

Side note:

 Im back into my pre pregnancy jeans! and most shirts that fit the milk jugs.  :-)

 Jefrie wanted to take a picture lol

And Eastyn took this one.
