so i don't think he exactly loved the photo session, but in spite of peeing on me(pretty much in my face) and being fussy, aunt elsha got some really cute picts!!!

brotherly love:)

sheer excitement walking into class

1st day of kindergarten!!!

trae LOVES kindergarten at woodland hills!! he is a character, he got name tag from his teacher and next to his name was a grasshopper sticker. he was told to find the desk and cubby to match the grasshopper sticker, he started jumping up and down in front of his teacher and said" How did you know i love grasshopperrs" and if you know trae you can just hear the excitement in his voice!

Pediactric centers fun run!

Sat we took the kids to community park for the fun run- we had a great time! Trae ran the whole time and of course thought it was awesome when he got a trophy(necklace)!!!

a bow or a mohawk?

mace put her bow on him and said " look mom he is pretty like me!"

tubing in bear lake

mckenna, g-ma cherie and allyssa. Proof that g-ma really rode on the tube!! We didn't get any other pictures because it was cold and windy. We still loved the trip but wished it would have been warmer:)

i love the carseat!! And my toes:)

big helper

grandmas cabin pedicures

A week after jax was born we headed to the cabin for some time away and a lot of serious granny 911. After a long pregnancy i needeed help with my wild kids- and grandma came to the rescue!! They are both doing great now thanks to her ground rules:) But of course it wasn't all work and no play... We played on the lake and rode 4 wheelers, we even went to yellowstone to see the bears. I have decided this should be a quarterly tradition!!

Jaxton Thomas Seward

He is here!!! Born july 22 at 8lbs 4ounces. He is an angel and we are all doing great. post more picts soon)

Things have been crazy busy aroung here with all the summer activities and camping(of course i have forgotten the camera 4 out of the 5 times we have gone). The kids are loving summer and we are all scrambling to get ready for this baby, the pregnancy has seemed to fly by and is overwhelmingly close to being over! here are a few things we have been up to...

long summer days

I was working on saturday and as i was finishing my last client i realized i hadn't heard mace in a while so i start looking for her, after about five minutes later i found her acrossed the road and down the street in a neighbors backyard having lemonade. Well her dad was watching her and obviously fell asleep. I was REALLY mad so i told her to go downstairs and wake him up so mommy could talk(yell) at him. Ten minutes later i came down to find this- so cute i wasn't even mad anymore!! Lucky save trav:)

Parade

Trae was much more impressed with splash park!! Don't know who the dude is, but apparently it was trae's friend ( kinda scary!)

people watching- she gets this from her dad, she did this for about an hour

riding the carousel at rexburgs splash park

tee ball was so fun this year!! Trae actually got into it and thought every game was AWESOME!!! he would hit the ball and run as fast as his runt legs would let him and when he stopped he would yell to the coaches" Did i hit it so hard? that was sweet huh!!" such a character. Thanks Angi and Kristen, it takes patience to coach him!

Wade lake

memorial weekend camping with our cousins!!

pre-school graduation

crime spree's

Traesen is always keeping me on my toes, here are a few of the most recent incidents:
-taking golf tees from walmart without his dad even knowing
-at the bank, in the drive thru he decides he is done and gets out of the car
-stealing medical bracelets from walgreens
-stealing a car from preschool
-driving the stolen preschool car all over the hood of my car to cause massive scratching
-calling 911 just to see what happens...
All of these adventures have occured in a 24 hour period, pray for me.
