Lots and Lots of fun

It has been a crazy few months so I am trying to catch up. Laney had her preschool program in May and she did a great job on her part. She had it memorized on the first day she brought it home and just kept saying it over and over again. We also went swimming a few weeks ago with Brants family up to Green Canyon and all the kids had a blast swimming and jumping off the side. Maya wasn't able to go swimming so she sat with Grandma and Grandpa Sautter saying hi to the kids. Just last weekend we went up to Fall Creek camp ground with my family, we were a little worried that it would rain on us but when we got there the rain had already come so we hurried and put the tent up and then the sun came out and it ended up being a really nice weekend the day we left it was raining but we were coming home anyway so it wasn't too bad at all. On Friday the boys went for a bike ride and Brant decided to try it again after last year cutting his lip open and having to have stiches he had a great ride and did an awesome job. Laney had never seen my brother in his riding gear and so when he was ready he took his bike for a ride and was going crazy fast like he always does and laney said,"Wow his fast!" she was so impressed, and on the way home she said ," Grandpa is really super cool on a motorcycle" she has seen my dad on a motorcycle but not all decked out so she thought he was really super cool. We had a great weekend and can't wait to do it again. Jake and dad and todd also brought up the little motorcycle and four wheeler and three wheeler up to play on with the kids. Thanks fam for a great weekend!!!

More updates...

Well I have officially finished my projects for this year cause I can't think of anything to do for the boys room yet so it might have to wait til next year. I have such a hard time deciding what paint and everything that when I do decide I second guess myself in the colors that I chose. So I am still getting used to my room color but I think I really like the kitchen, I like my room but it will be something I will have to get used to. Anyway I am glad that I am done painting for awhile its funny cause I do decide what paint and the rooms then I go crazy and try to get it all done at once. Anyway it has been really fun getting my house decorated somewhat and enjoying it.

All the stuff we have been doing....

Well we have been so excited about some of the things we have been able to do this year inside and outside of our house, we were able to get cement which is nice so that we don't have a bunch of mud at our house its really hard to keep four little kids that love to be outside out of the mud. Then we were able to get the kids a swingset they have been on it every chance they get. I don't think Brant will ever get another swingset again after putting it together it was definetly not as easy as our first one was but the kids loved it when he got it done. I have also been trying to decide what to do with the inside of our house and I didn't really want to do anything until I knew for sure what I wanted so once I figured it out I went kind of crazy with the paint. I still don't have our room painted or the kitchen but I do at least have the colors picked out so I am excited to get those rooms done too. As for the boys room I have no idea yet so if any of you have any cute ideas for twin boys who love sports let me know. We are so excited for it to warm up so we can enjoy being outside. We are getting our garden ready to plant again this year which I love doing so hopfully we can get it ready in time.

Maya's Birthday party

Maya's Birthday was exactly what she wanted. I think I could have just gotten her a Backyardigans cake and decorations and she would have been totally fine with it. Her favorite thing is Backyardigans and so I was really glad she liked her cake. For a month now all she has been saying is "Pablo Cake" so when she saw the cake she just wanted to grab it and play with it. It was so cute. It was really weird to see my baby turning 2 but we had a great time with family thanks everyone for presents and coming.

Maya's Birthday!!!

Well I can't believe that it has been two years since this sweet little girl was born into our family. It was a long and scary pregnancy with her. Brant and I were just getting used to the idea of having another child when I found out that I was pregnant. I was not that happy about it. I was really sick again like my normal pregnancy's are and I had three kids that were very active and then at 14 weeks my placenta tore and I started to hemorage. We went to the ER and the doctor said that I would probably miscarry in the next day or two no matter if I laid down flat or walked around. I that point I knew that it was her time to come in out family and felt bad for all the awful thoughts I had about being pregnant again. I went to my regular dr. and he said I should be ok and that she would be fine. I would have to go to high risk doctors so that they could keep an eye on her growth and everything else. I had a c-section with the boys so we decided to do another one with her. At 36 weeks I was having really bad pain in my incision so I went to the dr and he said my uterus was thinning and that they needed to delivery the baby so that my uterus wouldn't burst. They delivered her and she weighed 7lbs. 2oz and she was very healthy. She had to stay in the NICU for a couple days cause they had a policy if they are not exactly 37 weeks they go straight in the NICU. When we fianally got her home it was like we had always had her in our home. She is so sweet and loves to play with her brothers and sister. She is a very smart girl and talks just like her sister did. We love her and knew that she was the puzzle piece that was missing in our family. WE LOVE YOU MAYA HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!
