What a sweetheart!

The other day Brandon came home from work to find that i had had a rough day. Both boys had not been feeling well and i had been up with them both all night. Naps for either did not happen and they were both extremely moody. I was in the process of making dinner and noticed i was missing one of the main ingredience and knew that there was no way i could take the boys to the store without making a huge scene over something, so Brandon offered to go and pick it up for me. When he came home from the store, i started finish up dinner when he explained that he had bought something at the store, had hid it in the garage, and was now was feeling guilty for hidding it. Figuring he had bought either a butterfinger, a donut, or pop for himself, he went and brought these in....Is he not the sweetest husband. It sure make the rest of the day seem so much better, Thanks Honey!!

O Coleton!!

With Coleton getting older, he is starting to have a funny sense of humor (like his dad). He like to dance when ever he hears music, make people at the store giggle as he walks past, and... make faces. Even as i sit here with him he is make the face at the picture because he thinks the picture and him are making faces at each other.
He is growing up to be such a goofy kid and we love it! I see more of Brandon in him each day and i am glad that is who he is growing up to be like!!


Here is just a cute video, he got a tad nervous on camera but he has learned how to wipe of the table and does a pretty good job getting it clean!

Cuddle time with daddy!

Ever since Coleton was born, Brandon has hoped for a baby that would cuddle up with him on the couch and take a nap. He tried for months with Coleton but Coleton just wasnt a cuddly baby. So Brandon was really hoping that Hayden would be and tada.... He is!! Brandon will come home from work, grab Hayden, and the both of them will nap together! Its really cute to watch them together and it sure helps me get things done, now all i need is for him to take both boys and nap with both, just think of the free time i would have!!

Happy Birthday, Coleton!

Today, Coleton turned two years old! I cant believe how fast he has grown and that he is his a little man! Since we had family here yesterday for Haydens baby blessing we had a party for him after! We had a dinner with everyone that was so good and Coleton was so ready to eat his cake that he was doing all he could to reach it before dinner was done!I made him a train cake with train cars that had m&ms, sprinkles, and oreos.I had a hard time making it with him because he kept yelling "train, train, train, train" and it was hard to consentrate on what i was doing.This year he was able to blow his own candles out which was fun to see!
After dinner we opened some presents and Grandma and Gramdpa gave him trains which he went crazy over!He was so excited about the trains he didnt even care about other present he had not opened yet.He also got train tracks, shoes, clothes, stickers, and a puzzle. At the end of the day, with all of the excitment he didnt get a nap and so after family had left he was in his room reading a picture book of our family, he just fell asleep! I just had to laugh because he looked so cute!
The day was wonderful, he understood this birthday and it was so fun to see him so excited! I can't believe he is now two years old!

Haydens Baby Blessing!

Haydens baby bessing went great! We were able to bless him in our home ward (Hurricane 8th).My parents, sadly were not able to make it because of church meeting they had to be at but
we were able to have Brandons parents Tom and Joleen with us... Brandons Grandparents Dee and Lorna Wiser...
and of course Haydens big brother, Coleton, was there and they looked so darn cute together!!
Tom, Dee, Bishop Christiansen, and his councilors Brother Humphres, and Brother Lister were in the circle with Brandon and he gave a beautiful blessing. Hayden was able to sleep during the blessing so that was a relief not to have him crying!
His baby blessing so wonderful and we are just so blessed to have Hayden in our lives!

Babywise!

Hayden has been a great night sleeper from the time he came home, naps on the other hand have not been so great. He will fall asleep, i will lay him down and ten minutes later he is up and it goes on for hours So it is time for the babywise program. With Coleton, I put him on babywise at about four weeks old and i loved how happy he was and how great a night sleeper he became. Hayden is now about two months old and we started yesterday and i forgot how great babywise is! After the first day he was napping for an hour to an hour and a half and was so happy! I know that i have more rough days getting him trained but i know it will be worth it in the end!!

Easter Weekend!

This year Easter and General Conference landed on the same weekend. Brandon didnt have school on Friday or Monday so we headed to Kaysville to spend the weekend with family. Brandon is preparing to go back to school for his masters degree so while we were in salt lake he decide to take the GRE so he could apply for the program he is wanting! We headed up on Thursday night after he was finished teaching. We borrowed a DVD player for Coleton to watch movies on the ride up and it worked great. Both boys did great and we made it there about eight and got settled in before the whole gang got there!
We had all of my siblings there except Caetie and here family who were to far away to travel. We had four of the five toddlers that were all the same age (Alexis, Coleton, Benjamin, and Ashley missing is Masen) who loved watching movies together.
We also had the three boys who are very close in age also (Hayden 7 weeks, Logan 5 1/2 months, Ethan 10 weeks) Once the whole gang got there we had quite the weekend. It was pretty busy with egg decorating and making pies while the boys were at the priesthood session.an easter egg hunt outside with plastic eggs that coleton didnt really understand.But Coleton did love being with cousins! He had so much fun running around and having them carry him around.
And of course the Easter bunny came and left toys and treats for the kids. Coleton and Hayden shared a basket because Hayden is so young. They got crayons, a coloring book, kite, a car, candy, playdough, bubbles, a pinwheel, and a pez that looks like percy which he loved.We watched conference with everyone which was wonderful and we had the chance to go to Brandons dads mission reunion celebrating 40 years of his mission (indonesia) being opened.We had such a great weekend and were so happy to be able to spend it with family over Easter weekend!
