Reese's Pieces

Tommy

2012-02-06T13:46:00.002-07:00

We just can't get enough of this little boy lately, he is so much fun! I can't believe he is almost going to be two. He talks so much and can really say any word. He knows the color blue but we are working on the other ones. He still loves mostly all food and his favorite meal is Salmon and Broccoli. He is such a good boy most the time except for the occasional tantrum. He loves his Daddy so much and his favorite time of day is when he gets home from work.

Playing with "Cloud Dough" he loved it!

This is not the best picture but we went to a pirate party at the library and he loved it!

He loves to wear his baseball hats just like his Daddy

Playing in Oliver's cage he loves him so much!

Getting ready to go to church where he finally loves going to nursery yay!!

Sledding

2012-01-29T15:34:00.002-07:00

We took Tommy sledding for the first time and he had so much fun! He really liked it but his favorite thing to do is pick up snow and drop it, I know lot's of fun!

Bowling!

2012-01-29T15:32:00.001-07:00

We went bowling with Josh and Shana and we had lots of fun! We for sure need to do it again sometime soon!

Treehouse Museum

2012-01-03T15:31:00.001-07:00

Ashlie gave us a Treehouse Museum pass for Christmas and I can't believe we have never been there before! We went with all of the cousins there and we had so much fun. I can't wait to go there lots more.

Christmas

2012-01-03T15:23:00.002-07:00

We had such a great Christmas we got to spend time with all of our family and just relax. We ate way to much food and got spoiled with so many presents especially Tommy! I am horrible and didn't take a single picture of our actual christmas but I did of some of the stuff we did. We made, well acutally Zach made this amazing gingerbread house!

We went and looked and the little houses around downtown Ogden

We made lots of cookies and Tommy loved helping

We also went to temple square to look at the lights

Santa Pictures

2012-01-03T15:19:00.002-07:00

We got Tommy's pictures taken with Santa and after some hard work they actually got him to smile! I think they did such a great job especially because after this he loved Santa and he was always picking out things that had Santa on them. This first one is my favorite I love Santa's face in it!

Freezer Meals!

2012-01-03T15:10:00.002-07:00

Me, Shana, and McKenna made freezer meals and we had a blast! It was a long day but we ended up with 8 entire dinners for only $45 dollars! We will for sure be doing it again.

This was only half of our meals the entire table was covered when we were done

Just like Oli

2012-01-03T15:06:00.002-07:00

Tommy loves Oli so much he is always giving him kisses and hugs. Oliver got a new bed which he loves but Tommy loves it too!

I love him!

2012-01-03T14:57:00.002-07:00

I love this little boy so much! I know I say it all the time but seriously I can't believe how big he is getting. He can talk so much and has his own little personality. He can be naughty a lot but he is so much fun most of the time. I seriously can't get enough of him! We went and played in the snow for the first time, even though there wasn't much of it. He loves his snow clothes and wants to put them on all the time. He also loves to do anything that we do he is always wearing his daddy's hats and he also loves to pretend to read my kindle.

Happy Birthday Dad!

2011-11-14T21:55:00.002-07:00

Halloween!

2011-11-04T08:07:00.002-06:00

We had a way fun Halloween! Tommy was bam bam, Zach was Barney, I was Betty, and Oli was a Dinosaur. We had some fun parties thanks to all of our families! Tommy loved trick or treating too he was amazed that he just knocked on someones door and they gave him candy!

19 Months

2011-10-30T20:01:00.003-06:00

I love this little boy so much! I can't believe that he is 19 months old and I say that all the time but its so true. He is so much fun right now he can talk so well he says so many different words his favorite thing to say right now is "there it is". He has such a funny personality but he does like to throw tantrums. He also loves to dance and like always eat.

Airplanes!

2011-10-30T19:55:00.002-06:00

Tommy loves airplanes so we thought it would be fun to go to the Hill Air Force museum. We had a lot of fun looking at all of the airplanes. We will for sure go back there sometime soon!

Pumpkins

2011-10-30T14:40:00.001-06:00

We painted our pumpkins that we got at the pumpkin patch and we even let Tommy paint his own which he thought was fun. Zach's of course turned out the best like always.

Pumpkin Patch

2011-10-30T14:17:00.002-06:00

We took Tommy to the pumpkin patch to get some pumpkins and he loved it! He would have stayed there forever he loved running around outside. He was scared of the witch though :)

Missouri!!!

2011-10-16T13:30:00.010-06:00

My mom took me and Tommy to Missouri to visit all her family for a week and we had a blast! We did so many fun things and ate way to much amazing food! I am so glad that everyone got to meet Tommy and that I got to meet all the little kids. Thanks everyone for being so great while we were there I love you guys!
My cousin Rebecca has a bounce house so she brought it to my Grandmas and the kids all loved it!

We went to the zoo one day and its so much better then the one here! We were there for two hours and barely saw any of it and the best part is that it is free! This lion was awesome it roared a hole bunch just as we walked up.

Tommy normally won't keep sunglasses on for long but since Tori had them on he thought he was pretty cool and wore them too.

Kissing a snake :)

Grandma and Lexi this picture cracks me up!

My uncle Tom plays the guitar and he brought this little one for the kids to play with, it was Tommy's favorite toy he thought he was cool.

We went to the Science Center one day, which is also free, and it was a lot of fun. There are lots of different buttons to push and fun things to play with.

We made the arch!

We got Tommy a cardinals build a bear and he loves it, he actually really liked making it too.

We went to the Magic House one of our last days and it is seriously the best place for kids ever! There are so many different rooms with all sorts of different things to play with it was amazing! There was a Alice in Wonderland room that had lots of music stuff in it.

This was Tommy's favorite, a stand up sandbox he could have stayed there the entire time

There were so many fun pretend rooms like a restaurant, a library, a grocery store, a hospital, and a lot more.

The hospital was the cutest it had babies that you could take care of and everything like a real nursery in a hosptial.

Tommy really liked this room because it had so many different phones.

You can tell by my face :) this was really cool. It made a giant bubble around you.

We got some yummy custard at lyons, Tommy really liked it.

Most of the cute kids, though Lexi was not very excited to take the picture.

Utah State Game

2011-10-16T13:20:00.003-06:00

We went to the Utah State homecming game and we had a lot of fun, even though they lost. We went to the parade, ate at italian place, went to the bar-b-que, and of course finished off with going to the game. It was a fun day! ( don't mind the double picture I couldn't figure out how to delete it)

A few more

2011-09-21T20:47:00.006-06:00

I took some more pictures of Tommy I didn't get very many good ones because Tommy wasn't in best mood but I did get a couple.

18 month pics

2011-09-19T20:56:00.013-06:00

Tommy is just about 18 months and I can't believe it! He has changed so much in the last little bit. I can't believe how much he is talking and what a personality he has. He is definitely very stubborn and he is such a tease. He does things all the time because he knows he is not suppose to and he looks at me to see if I am watching, what a stinker! He is talking so much he tries saying most everything we say and he is saying yes and no to our questions which is very helpful. We decided to take some pictures of him and I think they turned out really good!
He is so funny with bugs he wants to see them but he is a little scared to.

Tommy loves Oli so much he will always give him kisses.

He is so silly!

5 Years

2011-08-24T14:39:00.002-06:00

So I am a little late because our anniversary was actually on the 18th but we were in bear lake so I am doing it now. Zach I just wanted to let you know how much I love you and how amazing you are. You are such an amazing father and I love watching you with Tommy it makes me so happy seeing you with him. You are also such an amazing husband you make me a better person. Even when I am so mean to you, you are always so calm and just let me do it and then your so nice when I apologize later. I am who I am today because of you. I can't believe we have been married for 5 years, but then at the same time it seems like I have known you forever. I am so happy I have the gospel in my life and that's because of you. I can't wait to spend eternity together, I love you!

Bear Lake!!

2011-08-24T14:15:00.012-06:00

We go to Bear Lake every year and I seriously look forward to it all year long! We had so much fun relaxing at the beach, eating way to much food, playing in the sand, going on the boat, and playing lots of games. Thanks so much Lance and Nancy for this tradition we love it so much and I already can't wait until next year!

Tommy loved the water and sand he could of spent all day at the beach!

Tommy liked the boat but he didn't love the life jacket.

We have an annual volleyball tournament the Reese's against the in laws and I am sorry to say that the Reese's have won three years in a row. It was still a lot of fun though we even had shirts made this year. Below is all the kids lined up watching us play volleyball.

The little kids all loved this fountain Tommy really wanted to drink it.

Bowling

2011-08-24T14:09:00.005-06:00

We went bowling at Fat Cat's a few weeks ago and we had lots of fun. Tommy really liked pushing the ball down the thing, he also really liked putting his face in front of the thing that drys your hands. He also really wanted to run down the isle after the ball which made it really fun :). We also played some games after which he thought was pretty cool. It was a fun day!

Fun in the Rain

2011-07-31T19:51:00.009-06:00

We went on a walk at my moms house today and it started pouring!! We got soaked so we decided to stay outside and play in the puddles, Tommy was loving it!

I had to post these pictures to he is so funny!

The Rodeo!!!!

2011-07-31T14:15:00.008-06:00

We love the rodeo! I love that we go every year its so much fun. I am very allergic to hay so I have to take a lot of allergy medicine before we go and we usually have to leave early because of me but this year it actually wasn't to bad. We still had to leave early but because Tommy was so tired but we stayed longer then normal. Tommy loved it he kept pointing at the animals and he loved the sky divers he kept looking up at the sky for more. Thanks Bumps and Nana for doing this every year!

I had to put this picture up for Randi it made me laugh:)

Summer Fun!

2011-07-31T13:49:00.009-06:00

I can't believe Tommy is 16 months! He is so much fun he is such goof ball and is always making me laugh! He went to the doctor for his 15 month check up and he is in the 25% for his height and 15% for his weight which is a little bit higher then last time which is good because the doctor said they usually drop at 15 months. I am surprised that he isn't bigger because he eats so much food I love that he is not picky!

It was my moms birthday and we had a fun day together. We ate yummy french dip sandwiches, went to the park, and did some shopping!

Birthday cookies :)

We went to the salt lake farmers market and it was a lot of fun, though it was very hot!

Tommy loves to play with the hose at Gangi's house!

Tommy loves to go up to Oli and give him kisses and of course Oli gives them back, gross!

Tommy and Taegen both decided to get on the bike at the same time so I had to take a picture but by the time I got my camera out they both were way bugged with each other!

Random Stuff

2011-07-06T15:05:00.007-06:00

We have been having lots of fun Tommy loves being outside so we are outside doing something a lot. Tommy is getting so much more independent he always wants to do everything by himself and gets so mad at me if I help him. When we are with his cousins he thinks that he is one of the big kids. I can't believe that Tommy is 15 months already time has flown by! Here are some pictures of stuff we have been doing.
He ate so much watermelon but he tries to eat the entire thing and same with the corn he thinks he can eat all of it.

This is where he decided to eat his lunch the other day he sat there the entire time, it was pretty cute. He is such a good eater, he eats everything and lots of it!

Me, Shana, and Josh went to the Utah arts festival I had never been before it was lots of fun. Tommy's favorite part was the water at the library he was so mad when I got him out!

Josh and Shana are taking care of a bunny and Tommy loved it. He is not very nice though because Oliver is so good with him he thinks he can just hit animals and he hits them as he is saying nice.

We have gone on a few bike rides and Tommy seems to like it we sure do!

The Fourth

2011-07-06T14:43:00.010-06:00

We had such a fun fourth of July weekend! On Saturday we went to the Centerville parade and Tommy loved it! Then we had a bar-b-que at Shana's house after and we had the yummiest burgers and I made cupcake kabobs which I thought were pretty cute. Then on Monday we went nanas house and had brekfast. Then we went to the Kaysville parade and I think he liked it even more because he was with all of his cousins he thinks he is one of the big kids its really cute. Then we went to a bar-b-que after, it was a really fun weekend!

Happy Fathers Day!

2011-06-19T13:43:00.002-06:00

Happy fathers day to all the Dad's in my life I love you all!! Especially to my sweet husband who does so much for us every day, he is so amazing!!! He is the best dad and Tommy loves him so much, Thank you for everything I love you!

Lots of fun!

2011-06-19T13:18:00.009-06:00

We have been having a lot of fun this summer and Tommy is getting so big! He is almost 15 months and I can't believe it! He is saying so many different things. He can say banana (ya-ya), momma, dadda, juice, oli, no, hello, bye bye, hi, and he can tell you what a dog says. He loves being outside and he would stay out there all day if he could! We love him so much!!
We had dinner with some of our friends and then we played some Michael Jackson on Wii and Tommy was so cute he was dancing with everyone. He also had lots of fun with his girlfriend Cambree I am so glad they are so close in age they are so cute together and I love that they are growing up together.

Tommy is always putting something around his neck like this.

He thought he was so funny with his pants on his head

I made him so playdough (which was really easy) and he thought it was weird for a minute but then he loved it! Oliver also just wanted to eat it.

For father's day I had Tommy do finger paintings for all the dad and he liked it but we did it outside so it was hard to get him to sit down long enough to do it for of them, but we got them done and I think they turned out really good!

This is what he wanted to do when we were finger painting, he pretends to water the flowers with the hose.

My mom bought him some sand toys and it had this little watering can in it so he could actually water the flowers and he loved it!

My mom got him a pool for his birthday and it finally got warm enough for me to get it out he had a blast and I think he could have stayed in it all day, we can't wait to get it out again!

Cherry Hill!!

2011-06-19T13:11:00.004-06:00

We took Tommy to Cherry Hill for the first time and we had a blast! He wasn't so sure at first but he loved it by the end. He loved the lazy river though he didn't want us to hold him he thought that he could just swim by himself and he liked playing in the water at pirated cove. We will be going back there a lot this summer, I can't wait until next time!

Rhubarb Pie

2011-06-19T13:06:00.002-06:00

Zach loves rhubarb pie and Shana has a huge rhubarb plant so me and Zach made some rhubarb pie together. We had lots of fun making them and Zach did a good job for his first time making a pie!

More Zoo

2011-06-19T12:53:00.006-06:00

We got a zoo pass so we have gone to the zoo a few more times and its been so much fun! I went with my dad and Tommy got to go on the carousel and he loved it he wasn't so sure at first but then he didn't want to get off. I am sure we will be going a lot more this summer and it anyone wants to go I am always up for it!
He had this slurpee permanently attached to his mouth I think he drank like half of it at least!

Like father like son

2011-05-26T14:54:00.005-06:00

Tommy is so much like his dad in so many ways and Zach got this fan out the other day and guess who loves it, Tommy does! I guess it shouldn't really surprise me I find out more ways he is like him every day and this little boy sure does love his dad!

The Zoo!!!

2011-05-26T14:36:00.014-06:00

Me and my mom took Tommy to the zoo yesterday and we had so much fun!! It was tommy's first time to the zoo and he loved every second of it! He loved looking at all the animals and I think even more he loved all the kids that were there. He loved walking around looking at everything and just being outside, it was a blast!
He would not stand still, way to much going on!

He loved being able to stand up and look through the glass at everything

The train was so much fun!

This elephant was really cute it played music and then shot air out of its trunk Tommy just liked the kids all around it

He loved sticking his hands in this waterfall

I had to take a picture of him with this I have pictures of me with it when I was little!

We will for sure be taking more trips to the zoo in the near future!!

What we have been up to

2011-05-16T14:45:00.009-06:00

We have loved this nice weather and been outside a lot! Tommy is almost 14 months and I can't believe it. He says dada, oli, uh oh, and he says momma sometimes but I think he teases me and can really say it but as soon as he says it I say momma back and he says dada. He is so much fun and getting so big we love him tons! We had lots of fun with nana and bumps and the kids all got to ride in bumps new john deere, they loved it!

and yes that is tommy in the blanket he loved it!

We have gone to the park a lot, this little boy loves to be outside!!

Family

2011-04-11T11:23:00.003-06:00

My grandma got to come from Missouri for a week and it was so much fun!! Tommy and me both loved having her here. We ate way to much food, shopped, and laughed a lot. I am so glad she got to come I don't get to see her enough! I hope that next time we can go out to Missouri to see her and the rest of my family. Thanks Grandma for coming to see us and all the fun we had with you, love you!

12 month pics

2011-04-11T11:11:00.012-06:00

I took Tommys 12 month pictures and though I am not the best photographer I think that they turned out pretty good. Of course he does the best cheese face ever but do you think he wanted to smile for any pictures of course not. Anyway here are some of them :)

Tommy's Birthday

2011-04-07T20:04:00.014-06:00

Tommy's Birthday was so great he ate lots of cake and got very spoiled!! Thanks so much everyone for everything, we love you all! My grandma and aunt and uncle got to come to his birthday too which was so much fun because my grandma had never seen him. I am so glad we got to spend some time with them! The pictures are in the wrong order but just pretend :)
Tommy loves all of his new toys!!

He loves playing with all of his cousins and they are all so cute with him.

He really just went to town on his cake and he ate like half of it!

All the treats and decorations

And of course the birthday boy!

12 months!!!!

2011-04-07T15:15:00.008-06:00

He is one year old!! I can't believe it was a year ago that I had him and he was just this tiny little helpless baby and now he is walking!! He is so much fun, he has got this crazy little personality and he is always doing a cheese face, we love it. We also turned him around in his car seat and he loves being able to see everything. He is still such a good eater and he also can finally clap, which he does all the time. He climbs on anything he can and is just a happy little boy. We love him so much!!
He thinks he is so cool and such a mess!

Walking!! And he always is walking with his hands up like this

cheese face

11 Months

2011-03-02T12:04:00.005-07:00

Seriously he is almost a year?? I can't believe it it seems like he was just born. He is so much fun he makes us laugh all the time with all the silly stuff he does. He loves playing with his toys and really loves reading books. He is not walking yet but I keep thinking it will be any day now. I really thought he would be walking by now because he was walking around furniture at 6 months but he still thinks that crawling is faster. He still loves eating food and he eats almost everything that we eat his favorites are bananas, avocados, and salmon. We love him so much!!!

Weekend Fun

2011-02-18T11:04:00.009-07:00

This last weekend was so nice and we all loved it! We went to Barnes Park and went on a walk and we also went on a bike ride. Tommy loved the ducks and geese at the park I think he could have stayed there all day. He also really liked the bike ride, he loves being outside. It was so nice to have some good weather lets hope it comes back!

What not to do when you run out of dishwasher soap!

2011-02-18T11:00:00.003-07:00

So I ran out of dishwasher soap and I didn't want to go to the store so I thought hey I could use dish soap I wash dishes with that. Bad idea I probably put way to much in in hind sight but the entire time it washed them, it had bubbles coming out. Tommy loved it though!!

10 Months

2011-02-04T22:55:00.002-07:00

He is ten months! I can't believe it he is so big, and so much fun!! He has taken his first steps!! He has only taken about two and then he falls but he can do it. He still doesn't believe he can but if you trick him and let go without him knowing then he can take a few steps. He talks all the time mostly saying dadda but he tells us all kinds of stories. He also started bringing up the phone to his ear and talking and now he does it with everything not just the phone. We love him so much he is such a good baby.

Park City

2011-02-03T18:24:00.004-07:00

We went up to park city with the Reeses for the weekend and it was a lot of fun. We just played lots of games, ate lots of food and that was pretty much it. It was really nice to just hang out for a couple of days. Tommy loved playing with all of his cousins he thinks he is one of the big kids and he can't wait until he can walk off with Grant and Ruby.
Can you guess the age of these bums? I will give you a hint its not what you think :)

He obviously liked being naked all the pictures I have of him are naked ones

We had lots of fun in the hot tub and the snow!

Just some pictures

2011-01-01T12:08:00.002-07:00

So I know I say it every month but seriously 9 months already!! We love this little boy so much he is such a blessing to us. He makes me laugh everyday with all the cute little things he does. He loves playing with all his new toys especially his car he thinks he is so cool driving around in it. He loves getting into everything and mostly into things I don't want him to get into. He loves reading books and kissing his animals and he will give us kisses when he feels like it.

2011-01-01T11:46:00.003-07:00

I am a few days late but Happy Birthday to my sweet husband! Zach is the best husband he works so hard for us and does so much I couldn't ask for any more. He is the best dad, I love watching him play with Tommy and he is always making me laugh. I love you so much Chee!!

8 months!

2010-12-05T10:40:00.003-07:00

This little boy is 8 months old!! That seems to old I can't believe it. He has started getting into everything and crawling everywhere. He also pulls himself up on everything possible. He is so curious he just wants to touch everything and put it in his mouth. He is so much fun though he loves to play peek a boo and laughs so hard when we do it. He loves to be out doing stuff where there are a lot of people and he loves other kids! He is getting his top two teeth right now and he has also started eating more of the food we are eating which he loves.
He loves this table at my Dad's house he could stand and play with it for hours!

Candy Making!!

2010-12-05T10:35:00.002-07:00

It has become our annual tradition to make candy before Christmas and its the best!! This year we made dipped chocolates and it was so much fun and very messy. I didn't get any pictures of the candy when it was completed but it tastes very good!

More Pictures!

2010-11-07T20:28:00.004-07:00

We took some more pictures and Shana helped this time so we could get some family ones, I think they turned our great!

Pictures!!

2010-11-02T17:36:00.004-06:00

I couldn't get someone to take Tommy's pictures cheap so I decided to do it myself and I think they turned out pretty good!! We are going to do some family ones soon too.

7 months

2010-11-01T10:27:00.002-06:00

Seriously the months are just flying by I cannot believe he is already 7 months!! Tommy is getting so big! He has a tooth, and I am pretty sure he is getting his second one. He can pull up and walk a little bit along furniture. He can almost crawl, he can do one little crawl and then he falls. He is more interested in walking though, he wants us to hold his hands and let him walk everywhere! He was really tired and wasn't really thrilled I was taking his picture so this is the best one I got.

He loves everything that we use like our phones and the computer. He thought he was so cool that he was playing with it.

He loves playing with his Daddy and is always so excited when he comes home from work.

Halloween party

2010-11-01T10:04:00.002-06:00

We had a Halloween party at Shana's house with some friends and it was a blast! We had yummy food and played some fun games.

We played the doughnut on a string game and it was hilarious!

Logan Fun!

2010-10-31T12:58:00.003-06:00

We went to Logan for the Utah State homecoming game, which we do every year and it was a lot of fun. We got a hotel room the night before and had fun just hanging out in the room with family. The next day we went to the parade which Tommy slept most of the time but he liked it when he was awake. Then we went to the Italian Place, which is my favorite sandwich place ever!!! Then we went to the game of course, but we didn't get to stay very long because it started pouring which was not so much fun, but overall it was a great trip!

I think he is saying go Aggies!

6 months already!

2010-10-07T13:37:00.003-06:00

He is 6 months old already!! I can't believe how big he is getting he is growing so fast! He had his doctors appointment and he is 15 pounds 5 ounces so he is in the 25 % for weight and he is in the 60th for height. He can sit up all the time and he tries to pull himself up on everything he can't quite do it yet but I think its just because we don't have anything the right height. He gets on his hands and knees and rocks so I think he will probably be crawling soon. He loves eating and he has liked everything so far. He is such a good little boy and we love him so much!

Just Stuff

2010-10-07T13:23:00.003-06:00

So I haven't updated in a while so I thought I just catch up a little bit. Tommy can sit up all the time now so we usually give him baths in the sink and he loves it! He likes to touch the water but when it goes in his face he really doesn't like it.Playing with daddy

Helping mom with the laundry

and he got his first hair cut from his nana he was ok with it for a minute but we had to hold his head still and he really didn't like it!

and its a little late but this is his five month picture it was before the hair cut and if you look close you can see his crazy wings that he use to have

Uncle Jash

2010-09-01T12:11:00.002-06:00

My brother in Law Josh just got deployed to Iraq and he will be gone for about 10 months. Everyone please keep him in your prayers that he will come home safe. We love you and miss you!!!

5 Months and so much fun!

2010-09-01T11:58:00.004-06:00

This little boy is now 5 months old he is getting so big!! He has started eating fruits and vegetables and he has loved everything he has tried so far! He can now sit up by himself for a while and he still loves his jumper and thinks that anytime he is standing that is what he is suppose to do. We love him so much!!

Bear Lake

2010-09-01T11:43:00.006-06:00

We went to Bear Lake a little while ago with Zach's family and had so much fun!! We spent a ton of time at the beach, ate lots and lots of food, and played a ton of fun games. Tommy loved the water and tried a Cheeto for the first time, he loved it!! Thanks Lance and Nancy for doing this every year we love it!

4 months!!

2010-08-03T11:40:00.004-06:00

So I can't believe my little boy is 4 months old already!! He is getting so big and interacting so much. We went to the doctor and he weights 13 pounds and was 25 inches long so that means he is 25% in weight and 75% in height, so long and skinny. He is smiling and laughing all the time, he loves to stand, and he loves his jumper! We also started feeding him rice cereal and he really likes it last night I couldn't get it into his mouth fast enough. He also really likes to help and he holds the spoon the entire time. He grabs everything that is in front of his face, especially if I hold him while I am eating he tries to grab all of my food. We love him so much!!
4 month picture

He went swimming for the first time and loves the water!

The Rodeo!

2010-08-03T11:32:00.002-06:00

We went to the Rodeo on the 23rd with Zach's family and it was a lot of fun. We go every year and the only bad part is that I am really allergic to hay so we always have to leave early because I can't breathe so well. If it wasn't for that I am sure I would have a lot more fun because I love the rodeo!! We all get dressed up even Tommy he had more clothes on but it was way to hot. Thanks Lance and Nancy for always getting us tickets!!

Baseball Game

2010-08-03T11:23:00.005-06:00

We went to a raptors baseball game with some friends and it was lots of fun. The game wasnt to exciting they didnt score at all and the other team had one run but we still had fun!

Tommy fell asleep for most of the game

The 4th

2010-07-24T14:06:00.003-06:00

We had a great 4th of July We had breakfast at Zach's parents house and then we went to the Kaysville parade then had a barbeque at Zach's parents. Then went and watched the fireworks at Davis High. Tommy really liked the parade I think he liked all the noises and stuff to look at. He also liked the fireworks a lot. It was a really fun day!

3 month update

2010-07-24T13:35:00.005-06:00

So I am a little behind because Tommy is now almost 4 months but I here it is. He is so much fun lately! He is interacting so much and smiling all the time. He can roll over now from his back to his front and he started doing that a little after he turned 3 months and he does it all the time, it makes it really hard to change his diaper. He just started rolling the other way too but he doesn't do it as often. He loves to eat and every time he sees a bottle he gets so excited and tries to grab it and he tries really hard to hold it by himself. He also tries to grab anything that goes by his face. He loves standing and wants to do it all the time and he can pull up from sitting to standing if he is holding onto your hands and you help him a little. He is just so smart and so much fun, we love him so much!

Park City

2010-07-08T10:33:00.004-06:00

We went to park city and had so much fun! We stayed in a cabin that was really nice and just hung out and relaxed. We also had a cupcake decorating contest which me, Zach, Josh, and Shana all got medals in. Then we went to the alpine slide and went on that and the alpine coaster which was so much fun!!! Thanks dad and Cheryl for such a fun weekend!

Tommy's Blessing

2010-06-25T12:54:00.004-06:00

We blessed Tommy on June 6th it was such a great day! Thanks to our friends and family for being there we had a fun time. It was also Zach's first fathers day he is such an amazing dad and always helps out with Tommy, I love him so much!

Weekly Pictures

2010-06-01T13:28:00.001-06:00

This is his 3 week picture and then his 8 week picture I cant believe how much he has grown!

2 Months

2010-06-01T12:55:00.003-06:00

I can't believe that Tommy is 2 months old! We went to the doctor yesterday and he weighs 10 pounds 3 ounces and is 22 inches long. He is smiling and interacting a lot which is so much fun! He slept through the night last night for the first time so we will see if that happens again, I hope so! He can put weight on his legs when you stand him up and he actually rolled over the other day but he hasn't done it sense. We love him so much and have loved seeing his personality and watching become more of a baby then a newborn.He loves being held like this is usually always makes him stop crying

He likes to suck on our fingers

and on his own he just cant quite figure out how to get his thumb in there but I think he might be a thumb sucker

This is him with Cambree my friend Kelli's baby they are four weeks a part and they are going to be best friends!

This is how he was sleeping one day, so cute!

Mothers

2010-05-11T12:38:00.003-06:00

I know I am a little late but I just wanted to say how grateful I am to be a mother. This was my first mothers day and I couldn't be happier. I didn't think I could ever love someone so much everyone always said your life will be forever changed and its so true it was from the second Tommy was born. I am so grateful for my mother and mother in law for helping me and Zach become who we are today and for being so amazing and such good examples to me, I love you guys!

Pictures!!!

2010-04-28T16:03:00.006-06:00

Thanks!

2010-04-26T14:36:00.002-06:00

I just wanted to thank everyone for all the help they have been since Tommy has been here. All the dinners and advice have been so great!! We are so lucky to have such great friends and family to help us out so much. And of course here are some pictures of Tommy, I am doing a weekly picture of him by this giraffe to see how big he is getting this was the two week one and the one I posted before was at one week. I am a little behind since he is going to be four week on Wednesday which I can't believe!! I will try to post some more pictures soon I just need to upload them on my computer. I am having so much fun being a mom we are loving having him here!

I just wanted to post some more pictures of Tommy for everyone to see. We are doing great and both love being parents!!! We went to the doctor yesterday and Tommy is already back up to his birth weight and the doctor was amazed. So he is doing great too!

He's Here!!!!!!!!

2010-04-01T14:38:00.003-06:00

Thomas Zachary Reese is finally here!!! He was born on March 31st at 12:08 a.m and weighed 6 pounds 10 oz. and was 20 inches long. We are so in love with him!!!!! He was born c-section because he was having a hard time with the contractions and I am so glad they decided to because the chord was wrapped around his neck twice! We are so happy that he is healthy and that we finally are getting to know him.

No baby yet!

2010-03-29T08:53:00.004-06:00

So today is my due date and here I am still no baby! I am just so excited to see him and really wish that he would decide to come already. I go to the doctor today though and hopefully he will tell me he will induce me tomorrow, so keep your fingers crossed that we get to meet this little boy tomorrow!

The Park

2010-03-03T20:22:00.003-07:00

So the other day we went to the park and had a lot of fun! We went on a walk and then Zach and Oliver ran around and played and it was a lot of fun to watch. Here are some pictures of the day. This first one obviously isn't of the park but Zach cut off the sleeve of one of his shirts and put it on Oliver, I thought it was funny!!

Baby Showers!

2010-02-21T21:12:00.003-07:00

I had two baby showers in the last little while one my mom and sister did and one from Nancy, Randi, Ashlie, and Whitley. They were both so much fun and I got tons of great stuff! I am horrible though and took only one picture so I just took a picture of all the stuff I got instead. Thanks everyone so much for coming and for all the great stuff!

Coupons!!!

2010-02-05T19:36:00.003-07:00

I love coupons!!! I went coupons shopping for the first time today and I am officially addicted ! I went to Smiths and got 5 coke products, three things of gold fish, two things of ice cream, ritz crackers, wheat thins, raisin bran, milk, oreos, two things of cheese, chocolate chips, and cream cheese for only 30.62 and if I wouldn't have got the drinks it would have only been fifteen bucks! The best part is that before all the coupons my total would have been 68 dollars!! I also went and got gas and got 5 cents off per gallon. I love it thanks Ash for having that class!

Night Stand

2010-02-05T19:32:00.003-07:00

Zach made me this night stand and I love it!!! He made it out of an old dresser that wasn't even wood it's particle board. It amazes me all the stuff he can make! He has also made us a head board and lots of shelves I love having a husband that can do all that kind of stuff!

Valentines Wreath

2010-02-03T21:01:00.002-07:00

I made this wreath for only $3!! It was super easy too!! I got a foam wreath at the dollar store and then wrapped ribbon around it that I already had. Then I used cupcake wrappers and hot glued them on, it was really that easy and cheap!

Tommy's room!!

2010-02-03T20:41:00.007-07:00

So we are mostly done with everything in Tommy's room and I love it! Here are some pictures of what we have done.

These are some paintings Zach did and they are hanging above the dresser
