QUICK TRIP TO UTAH TO SEE GREATS

We always take a trip to see Grandpa and Grandma Stubbs and this time we were able to meet some of my cousins spouses and kids we have never meet and Grandpa treated us to dinner at IHOP which was fun since we don't have one of those in Hawaii. Thanks so much for letting us come stay and letting our kids make some great memories! Ryken lost her patience waiting for Gracie to smile and poor Grandpa trying to hold on to her for dear life. WE LOVE YOU!
She was very content and happy at first!

Gracie's favorite the little RED chair

4-WHEELING, MOTORBIKING, & RHINO RIDIN!!

We went riding up passed Kelly Canyon and had a blast we got very dirty and very cold but it was all worth it. Oh.....and the smell of cold Idaho fall days......the fresh cut hay wide open spaces with sunset for miles across the fields LOVED IT! Thanks Grandpa Larry Grandma Pam And........EVERYONE ELSE!!

Love this Picture

BEAR WORLD

We had lots of fun feeding the bears, riding the rides, and seeing all the cool animals especially the cubs wrestling and grizzly eating. Thank You for taking us Grandpa Craig and Grandma Cassie!

The Final Countdown!

Gracie and Katelyn have been driving me crazy with the "When are we going to Idaho" question so one day while Katelyn was at school and Gracie was whining about going to Grandma's I sat her down to make a countdown. When Katelyn came home she was so excited and ask Gracie if she had already ripped a chain off , which she had. I could tell Katelyn wanted to take part in the countdown so I offered her some paper to make her own. She was so cute with her ruler making sure her chains were straight and so excited! I think she understands the countdown better than Gracie. 10 more Days!!! Oh and a side note, Ryken has TWO teeth the other tooth popped through the next day!

Ryken just can't wait

This little turkey has her first tooth already! I was talking to Eric on his way home from work holding Ryken she stuck my knuckle in her mouth and I felt something sharp! NO WAY.....she has a tooth!!! This is a first, both Katelyn and Gracie were done nursing and about 10 months when they got their first tooth. Little Ryken couldn't wait to get to the hospital to be born, she is already up on all fours trying to crawl, getting her first tooth, and of course is very impatient when it comes to eating give it to her NOW! Well I am ready to cry since I was thinking she was my last baby and she is not staying a baby!!! I guess it is a sign I will have to have another one that I can spoil and keep young forever.........and Eric will just love that cause it will hopefully be a boy.

This is not an announcement!!!

Ryken is talkin!

Does this count as her first word? Ma ma ;)

I love this little girl who is growing up too fast! She is already trying to crawl!!!

Sunday and I am caught up!

The girls were dressed so cute today I thought it would make for some cute pictures and it did.
Katelyn is the best big sister anyone could ask for! Ryken gets all excited to hear Katelyn's voice, I can't say the same for Gracie and Ryken!

Even with Gracie.....Katelyn is so good to her!

I Love my Sunflowers especially with my babies!

Just having fun
