I'm back!

It has been way to long since I have posted and not to much has changed. My oldest daughter Shaylee just turned 13 and she is officially a teen....eeeek! I am still trying to wrap my head around the fact that I have a daughter that old! It seems I went right from diapers to shopping, clothes and the dreaded MAKE-UP. Shaylee, is actually a real good girl! She has made all honors classes and she is getting straight A's in every class. She excels in violin and she will one day make a real good mommy. Shaylee is also the Beehives president in Young Womens. I am very grateful Heavenly Father blessed me with her as well as all my beautiful children. My son Dylan just turned the wonderful age of 2 and yes I am running more it seems and I am getting a little older. I just love him way to much. Dylan is such a cheese ball he is always laughing and YES.....he LOVES to tease and torment his sisters already. I was walking through Desert Book the other day, and as plain as day he goes " Mommy!.....President Monson!" You can imagine my suprise and it truely was a proud moment:) I had to go and buy him a little post card with President Monson on it cause he did not want to leave the store without his book. Mikayla, just turned 11 today. October is a very busy month. Mikayla is excelling at Chello and she has an amazing singing voice. Mikayla is also getting straight A's in school. Kiera and Aspynn are busy bodies with dance and practicing for the upcoming Nut Cracker. Wayland, he is just an incredible Husband! I really lucked out with him and I am forever grateful he found me. Wayland serves as 2nd counseler in the Elders Quorum Presidency and he loves it and he just started a job at Wheeler Machinery. I feel like this has become a brag fest but, I dont post on here as often as I should and so I have to update. Also, I am happy to announce that we are hoping to add a new addition to our near future so please stay tuned.

Family

Wow! I can't believe it has taken me 4 months to update my blog. Life is definitley busy! I am finally able to sit for a moment and write a little about the family. Shaylee is now 12 years old and loving young womens. She has had the opportunity to perform baptisms for the dead at the Temple every month now for the last 3 months. I am having a hard time adjusting to the idea that I will have a child entering JR High in the fall. Where in the world does time go? My husband and I were talking last week about future plans and he informed me that Shaylee would be 18 in 6 years. I found myself crying, I knew it was coming I just didn't want to accept it. Mikayla-is now 10 years old and she is just such a sweetheart always offering to help around the house and she is always kissing me. Mikayla is getting straight A's in all subjects still and so is Shaylee. So proud. Kiera and Aspynn- just so fun loving and spirited. Kiera has an incredible sense of humor-she has that belly laugh that is so contagious. Aspynn, lives a princess filled fantasy land. We had the opportunity to attend a cousins wedding and they had dancing well, there was this cute 21 year old or so guy dancing with her for about an hour. When we go to leave she tells me she is going to marry him when she gets big. Kiera went to say something about him and Aspynn, with fiest says " Kiera! You cant have my guy get your own guy"! Seriously so funny. The other day Kiera asked me "mom, what is a singles ward" and before I could respond, Aspynn replied very matter of factly " Kiera, a singles ward is where you go when you are a single and it is a ward. We are not singles, we are americas"! I have no clue where she gets it.
Dylan is now 15 months old and he is into EVERYTHING! He is such a lover. He loves to give hugs and kisses and he knows he has his mom completely wrapped around his finger. He talks alot-he now has about 12 words he says often. Dylan loves Mickey Mouse and always wants to do what his daddy is doing. He is definitely a source of joy to the family. Everything is great. I love my husband very much and could not ask for a better friend and supporter.
