My Baby is 2

Oh my goodness this was a very bitter sweet day for me. I've decided that birthdays are really hard when it is your baby. My sweet little TaTum turned two on February 22nd. She had a Yo Gabba Gabba themed party. We had Grandma and Grandpa Rogers and my whole family here for some amazing Japanese food. We had Curry, egg rolls, Gioza and rice. It turned out super nice and TaTum loved every second of it. She was so cute when she opened her presents she took the time to look at each one and she would exclaim, "Oh I love it, thanks!" It was so sweet and she made her grandparents day with her happiness. A few things about Tatum. She is still pretty small for her size she is about half as tall as Bentlee, but she makes up for her small stature with a major attitude. I really thought for about a year and half of her life that she would be my more relaxed easy going kid. Boy was I wrong she has more attitude than any little kid I have ever seen. She loves getting into everything. She is finally starting to talk a lot. She went from not saying a lot to talking ever second. She loves blaming things on her sister. It is really kind of funny because she will have a poopy diaper and if you say Tatum did you poop she will say no Bentlee did. Everything is Bentlee did it. Any time you talk to her she will tell you the same story about how our cat poop scratched her ear about six months ago. It makes everyone laugh because she will say, "Poo Poo scratched my ear." She loves when she has one on one time with me and Jamie. She has started staying up later than Bentlee just so she can be with us without her older sister around. She is still a complete mommas girl I am totally fine with that. I love that both my girls love me more than anyone else. I know that is pretty selfish considering it makes daddy feel bad sometimes, but all well this is one thing I am happy to be selfish with. Well we love you little TATER TOT you are so special.

Christmas 2010

We had an amazing Christmas. I am really lucky because I get to spend every Christmas with my amazing parents. I love them so much and they always go out of their way to make Christmas so very special. This year was especially fun because both my girls are big enough know that they get super excited. They were both up super late and up super early ready to go see what Santa brought them. Are whole family was here on Christmas morning besides Rikki and Carson's family. So we were pretty packed and this next year everyone will be there. After this last year my parents are going to add on this summer so there will be some much needed extra room. Even though I love us all being so close it doesn't bother me one bit. I just think I have the best family in the whole world and I love them all so much.

Can you tell that this was one excited little girl..

Daddy getting up at six thirty in the morning. Not very happy...

I love this picture of TaTum with her uncle Slade. They were both a little tired..

The early risers that woke us all up at six in the morning. I think Bentlee looks the most rested.

A few of the presents on Christmas Eve!! This is before Santa came to visit and me and Portia brought our presents in. You can kinda see that space is limited... HAHA

TaTum loved that candy in her stocking. She has such a little sweet tooth...

Bentlee had this cheesy grin all morning until about ten. And then she was so ready for a nap..

Already fighting over stuff.. I think this will be the story of our lives until they are married.

Rye, Knox and Holden... I dont think they were ready to be up yet... But no worries Holden was wide awake when we got downstairs and he say his awesome train set. Poor Rye had to work super late the night before and drive all the way from Nevada just in time to get like two hours of sleep and then get up the next day and go back to work. What a great dad to do all that for those cute little boys..

Little Jackson was so cute.. He played with the girls kitchen set for days. He would sit there and stir and stir and then stick his fake food in the oven. It was adorable..

Tatums first time seeing her shopping carts... She was so excited!!

The girls food and kitchen set...

Another excited picture..

Another cute picture of little Jackson. This is Jacks little boy if you were all wondering.. He is adorable and so sweet.

Sorry for the major picture overload I had so many. I could of uploaded about twenty more that I thought were cute. But this will do..

I have a three year Old!!!

My sweet little Bentlee turned three on November 15th. Here I am once again playing some major catch up. She had a great party and she was so excited. She got a rainbow cake, a tag with a bunch of books, her mitten fluff n' stuff lala loopsy and a bunch of cute new clothes. She was one spoiled girl. I can't believe I have a little three year old. Some fun facts about Bentlee.. She is a total no it all she knows everything. She is super sweet and has a very tender heart. She feels bad and likes to tell me I don't love her whenever she is in trouble. She is a great big sister and always makes sure Tatum is staying out of trouble. My most favorite thing she does right now is she always gives kisses to me and her dad. She is super affectionate and I love that and enjoy every second of it because I know she will grow out of that fast. WE love you sweetheart and enjoy every second we have with you.

Halloween!!!

We had a great Halloween this year.. We started the week out with some pumpkin carving, the kids loved it. Bentlee made a little cat it turned out super cute she was so proud of it. And TaTum made a typical jack o lantern. She sat on my lap and would pull out the pieces when I was done cutting them. Then on Friday we went up to Enterprise for the annual carnival. My girls are still to little to really get into it. But Bentlee did make her basket. Hopefully she will keep that going and love basketball. Then Saturday they got to go trick or treating they both got a ton of candy. Here are some pictures of my cuties..



Bentlee was so proud of her pumpkin. I think it turned out super cute..






There huge bag of candy. They only went down one street in Enterprise and they ended up with all that candy.




My little Super Girl and Bunny Rabbit. Bentlee had to be Super Girl she wanted to be her so so so bad.



Getting ready to go trick or treating.



Bentlee and her cute little cheesy cousin Lincoln. I sure love that kid..



My cute little bunny rabbit. This costume is really cheesy, but it fits her so well.



Maybe some day she can master that crazy smile!!



This was taken right before we left to go to Enterprise she looks so cute.

Part 2 of catching up.

We finally took took the girls camping and we had a blast. It ended up being four fun days of playing in the dirt. I sure love my family and wish I would of taken more pictures.








Here are some cute pictures of my little Bentlee. Or should I say big girl Bentlee. She spends all day doing things by herself because she thinks she is all grown up.

I am so far behind so I am going to post a ton of pictures and put captions under them. So sorry this is major picture overload.. First two pictures are of Bentlee covered in my eyeliner. Or should I say waterproof eyeliner.. It was such a mess I was so mad, but she looked so cute I just had to laugh at her.







Here are some pictures of my little Tater Tot I took some really cute ones of Bentlee when she was the same age so I wanted to try with Tatum it started out good and then it turned pretty ugly she did not like it in there at all.






This is Tatums favorite hang out , the bottom drawer with daddy's socks. I usually find her in there at least twice a week. And of course Bentlee needed her picture taken. Don't you just love how they are both in their diapers. I am not going to lie they usually always are.







I finally can put Tatums hair in big girl pony tails. She looks so stinkin cute I think. I sure love her.

I have been so lazy lately, so I decided to get off my butt and catch up on my blog. Bentlee got to spend a little time with her cousin Holden they were so cute playing in the sand. We sure love when she gets to see him. We also had some great family pictures done. I love my family so much. Enjoy some pics...
