The last of summer. Back to school and work:(

Its back to school for Kaldyr and work for me.. SAD!! Kaldyr will be in Kindergarten this year.. WHAT??? Wow i cant even believe it. He is so excited though. He loves school. He is such a social bug so he will love it. Since i am going back to work in a couple days i have been trying to do as much as possible.. So last week my sister called to go to my grandmas pool.. The kids have a lot of fun when we go. and its nice. It rained on us alittle but that was ok..

 Kaldyr, Quincie and Jovie...Kaldyr is such a fish in the water. He has never taken swimming lessons and he does SO good..

We went to Mantua beach with some of my friends from High School. That was fun. I thought this was the cutest little picture of Naleah, Dax and Paisley:) Cute kids. The girls were a bit younger then Dax but he still had fun!!
Maylee and Hannah hanging out under the umbrella.. Such good babies:) Hannah is a month younger then May..
I loved this. I was getting some things ready one day to leave and put May in her bumbo and turned Mickey Mouse on for Dax and this is what i found:) So cute. And Maylee already loved Mickey Mouse.. She sat there for a good 15 min.
I CAN NOT BELIEVE my baby is already 3 Months old!!! It makes me CRAZY.. I love it but i also HATE it! She is such a good baby i am so lucky once again. Someone told me the other day that i need to have a real baby:) Cause i have been so lucky with them all. She is growing yet she is still a little peanut. She is still so tiny and petite but starting to do so many fun things. We just love her to pieces!! Especially  her Daddy. There is nothing better then seeing your baby girl smile the biggest smile every time she sees or even hears her Daddy. And she already has him wrapped around her little tiny finger. She is definately a princess at our house!!!

~SUMMER~

I can not believe our summer is pretty much OVER!!! It seriously makes me sick. Although we have had a fun fun summer it still makes me sad its almost over. I have had the whole summer off work for maternity leave and it has been FABULOUS and thats an understatement!!! I have loved EVERY second of my time home. Some days are definately hard but i wouldnt change it for nothing. I'm sad to be going back:(   So here is a little bit of what we have done this summer.  We went Swimming with Tyson's family for family night. The kids loved that. Especially Kaldyr he is seriously a fish.

Kaldyr was outside playing with Tyson while he was working and Tyson looked over and Kaldyr was spelling his name with the wire all by himself:) We thought it was pretty cleaver of him to do by himself.
 Lots and LOTS of outside riding their bikes and we cant ever forget to put on the "Bike gloves" (Gardening gloves). They would be out all day long if it wasnt so hot and i made us go inside!!! I cant handle the heat to long!

 We went with My sister Ashley and sister in law Cayley and the kids to the splash pad. They had lots of fun. Miles and Ike were there to but we didnt get them in the picture.

And little Miss May enjoyed sleeping in the sun while the kids played!! She is the best little thing ever!!
Little Maylee turned 2 Months old and is smiling ALL the time:) Wouldnt you love to see this cute little smile everyday?? I'm a lucky mommy!!!

 We got to go to Bear lake a couple times and one of those times we got to stay in our cousins cabin.. That trip instead of going to the lake we took the fourwheelers and went to the ice cave. Me, Maylee, Ashley and Ike rode in the car and met them there..
 (I cant get these pictures to turn for some reason) But this is at the ice cave. We had been there before and its really cool. The kids loved it!
 Daddy and his boys:)
 May was out the whole time. She liked the little pouch..
 All the kids!! Case, Dax, Quincie, Miles, Kaldyr, Drake, Jovie, Ike, Suri and Colt.. They all played so good and loved it.
 When we got back this is how they looked.. Do you think they had fun:). Then we got out the sprinkler and let them run and they were a muddy mess.
 We went to the 24th Parade with some our good friends. The parade is one of my favorites from being a kid. I loved it so i hope my kids will too:)
It rained on us but that was ok it made it so it wasnt so hot..

 Daxon, Kaldyr and Kayla. Best little buds!!

 My little miss May!! We just cant get enough of her. We love having a sister in our house. She has been the best little thing ever. She has slept through the night since 4 weeks. Eats good. Hardly ever cries. loves her Daddy and brothers. Smiles All the time. We LOVE LOVE this baby girl!!!
 HA HA and we have gloves again. For some reason these boys love gloves!! NERDS but we love them too!!
 And another Bear lake trip!! I'm a bad mom and didnt get one of the boys.. oops! But look how cute she is in her little sun dress enjoying the beach..
Cute kids!!!


We have had a fun summer and are sad its coming to an end!! But life is good and everyone is healthy, happy and growing what more can we ask for?

Little miss Maylee Joy!!!

Well here is a little bit of our little miss Maylee!! I can not believe she is already 10 days old:( I hate how fast time goes. It seems like i just had my Daxman and now i am holding my baby girl and Dax is almost 3. It kills me! Just a short version of the whole process of getting Maylee here. I woke up around 2 am on May 18th having some contractions about every 6-10 minutes so not to close but they sure did hurt. So i just went out on the couch to watch them and see what i was going to do. So after laying there till 5:30 i finally went and woke up Tyson and told him it was probably time to go.. Kaldyr was coming at 6 and we called my little sister to come sit with the boys so we got things put together and headed off. we got to the hospital around 7am and got checked in and i was only at a 4 and by this time i was so ready for my epidural i couldnt stand it.. We finally got in our room about 9:30 (Lots of babies decided to come this day so it took forever. Must of been the big storm we had) and i couldnt get my epidural for about another half hour 45 minutes because he was in with a C section. I finally got that and was a happy camper:) Dr silver who did my epidural was AMAZING!! Anyway my fabulous nurse checked me at 10:30 and was only a 4+ Wow this was going to be a long day. Oh ya and to top it off my Dr was at a track meet that day so i got to have an on call Dr deliver so  i was really nervous. But found out it was Dr Bierer and i have heard such GOOD things about him so that made it alittle better. So she checked me again about 11:30 i was at a 6 and noticed my water had broke and there was also blood in the fluid..NOT GOOD! she didnt say much just told us and she also noticed that the baby's heart rate kept dropping also NOT GOOD. She called the Dr and he said he was on his way this baby needed to get here ASAP. He wanted  a heart monitor on the baby's head so when she did that about 10 min later i was already a 7 and he called back about 5 min later and wanted a internal monitor for my contractions and when she did that i was at an 8 and Dr Bierer got there about 11:45 and i was complete and ready to get Maylee here. I pushed about  10 minutes the only other thing was the cord was wrapped around her little neck twice and Tyson said she was so purple and at 12:01pm our sweet little Maylee was born!! Her labor was completely different from Daxon's. I actually got to have her put right on my chest when she was born and Tyson got to cut her cord. She was so Beautiful and perfect. I can not even believe how blessed we were with this labor. The blessings just kept coming. After everything settle down we asked the nurse kinda how scary was it with the blood and everything cause all she told us was she needed to get here ASAP. and she said they had the cart out in the hall and she had stuff in her pocket ready to do an emergency C Section. My placenta was pulling away from the uterus which was making her heart rate go down from less oxygen. So such a blessing i dilated from a 6 to delivering in a half hour not very common. I love my Dr but it was a blessing to have Dr Bierer deliver and he also said he hit EVERY green light on the way which he never does:) We are so blessing not only with that but to finally have our baby girl here. She has been such a sweet baby in our home we couldnt ask for anything better.  Sorry so much for a short version.  

                            Our little family right befor we left for the hospital. Everyone was still half asleep:) I already miss my huge belly!!


Mommy and my little miss:) 

 We are now a family of FIVE.. Wow thats really wierd but i LOVE it!!!
 Daddy LOVES his little girl. Its the most amazing thing to see him with her. She already has him wrapped around her little finger.
 Maylee Joy

 Dax cant get enough of her. We have to watch him close cause he wont stop kissing and loving her!!
 Kaldyr was a little nervous at first but he has now warmed up a little. He would rather just look at her:)
 Isnt she just so sweet!!!
 My 3 kids!! The boys look HUGE now.
 Little miss we love you so much and are so happy you are apart of our family! You are perfect in everyway. Stay little dont get big to fast please:)

Update...

Time for a little update on the family! Busy like always and so excited for summer to get here.
We took the boys to the circus a couple months ago and they loved it. I actually liked it alot more then i thought i would. The elephants were my favorite like always:)

For St. Patty's day i made the boys green pancakes for breakfast. They thought that was pretty cool. I think we have made blue ones since then to:)
What a SPECIAL day this was. Wow talk about an emotional spiritual day in the temple. My brother and sister in law finally got their little man sealed to them. It was such an amazing day to make it all complete. Little Miles has been such a joy in our family we are so happy to finally have him sealed. I cant even imagine the feeling Colby and Cayley have. They are such special parents! We love you baby Miles:)
Easter... Its one of my favorite holidays! I love when Easter comes around. We didnt get to have Kaldyr with us Easter morning so it was just little Daxman. But he was so excited to find his Easter basket.
We had such a busy day. We got up and did our Easter stuff and left the house by 8:30. We had Two baby blessing that day and a family party. But it was a fun day. Dax loved the Easter egg hunts. This one was at Grandma and Grandpa Stokes house.

Feeding the cows. We were shocked at how brave he was to feed them all by himself.
Isnt he just the cutest:)
Today was such a nice day outside. It actually was REALLY hot. I am so glad i am almost done so i dont have to go through the heat of the summer like i did with Dax. Tyson got out the big ball and let the boys play in it.
They had so much fun but it was so hot inside the thing their little faces were bright red when we got inside the house. They would live outside if we let them.
Working on the Baseball swing:)
Kaldyr starts T-ball again soon so we have to get him ready. I love that he is now old enough to start playing sports. Its so fun to watch him.
We finally got Kaldyrs 5 year old pictures done:) Even though he turned 5 in November. But they turned out so cute. My sister Ashley takes the boys pictures for us and they always turn out so cute. Thanks a bunch!!!

He is such a cute little stinker. We just love him to pieces!!!

And last but not least TODAY!!!. 4 Years ago today i married my best friend!! I seriously cant believe its been 4 years. I feel so lucky/blessed to be where i am today. Tyson has been such a wonderful part of my life. Not only is he an AMAZING husband but he truely is the best Daddy to my boys and i can not wait to see him with our baby girl! We were talking the other day about our anniversary coming up and he said did you ever think that when we dated in high school 8 years ago that we would ever be married and be having our 3rd baby? And honestly i never would have guessed:) But i am so happy thats where we are! I am so happy he is mine and so happy he is the daddy to my children i couldnt ask for anyone better. Thanks for everything babe I love you so much!
This last weekend we celebrated and went to Salt lake to the Cheesecake factory (My all time favorite place to eat) walked around the new City Center and then to the Jazz game. It was such a fun relaxing night. I love spending time with just the two of us!
So excited for April to be here. April is my favorite month of the year and that means we are that much closer to meeting our little princess:)
