I know its been forever!

2010-10-17T10:43:00.001-07:00

I just wanted to post a few pictures so you can see what we have been up. Kyan is now 10 months old and getting cuter than ever, and Gabby is 3 with serious attitude. She actually told me i am boring the other day, man what is she going to think of me when she is 16. Ha ha.

Update

2010-03-02T08:50:00.000-08:00

Kyan is now 2 months old well a little while ago, but i thought i would give the update he weighed 10'7 and was 24 inches long. So what does that mean? That he is super tall and skinny so different than gabby was, and he has blue eyes. We love him very much especially Gabby she is crazy about him.

Funny story

2010-01-29T09:04:00.000-08:00

So im sorry if this is to much info for anyone but i just had to share this story. The other day i had the kids out at kellys work when a couple of people came in, they were talking to kelly and asked how the new baby was doing. Thats where Gabby came in, she told them about the baby Then out of the blue she said "and he eats moms boob". I started laughing so hard and went bright red. They both looked at each other and said did she say what i think she said. It was so funny. She makes me laugh every day. I am so lucky to have her in my life.

Kyan Kelly Carter

Born December 17th 2009. Seven pounds Seven ounces. Gabby is so excited for her littler brother she has been a big help (most the time too much help)

He likes his sleep I think he has slept more than anything.

2009-12-02T07:49:00.000-08:00

So i am such a huge blog slacker lately you can blame facebook for that one. I want to just post a quick update. I am 3 weeks left till we welcome our baby boy, we decided to name him Kyan and call him Ky. We are very excited but i am a little stressed cause i don't have my christmas shopping done yet, but hopefully soon. I promise i will post some pictures of Kyan when he decides to come.

Update

2009-08-14T14:54:00.000-07:00

Ok so i know its been forever since i have blogged and there is really no good reason for it. Gabby just keeps growing like crazy, and makes us laugh everyday. Im sure most of you know me and kelly and expecting again i am due in December and we are gettin a boy this time, Kelly couldn't be happier. The name thing is going to kill us boy names are hard, so i am open to comments on names please. Hopefully i will get some pictures up soon.

Easter Weekend 2009

2009-04-14T13:30:00.000-07:00

Gabby and Deegan Playing

Gabby helping her dad fix the bike

For easter weekend we went camping up by oak city. We had alot of fun even though it rained all day on saturday. Gabby just wanted to ride the bikes all day long and kelly kept telling me to take her with me, but after he saw my sweet riding skills or should i say lack of skills, he just kept her on with him. It was a really fun weekend.

2009-04-05T18:51:00.000-07:00

Gabby and Deegan. They are so cute. it kinda cuts Deegan off a little bit but you can still see enough to know they make a cute couple

2009-03-31T12:24:00.000-07:00

This is what Gabby does when you ask her where her ears are. Its so funny.

Random Pictures of Gabby.

2009-02-20T08:02:00.000-08:00

Gabby and her friends

2009-01-28T13:17:00.000-08:00

This is Gabby and her 2 friends Kyson and Deegan. They always have so much fun when they are together. It was so cute her kitchen came with a little jukebox so they would play the music and pound on the table. Gabby likes to take care of everyone, so Kyson and Deegan were sittin there and Gabby was the little waitress taking there order. They are so cute

Christmas Part 2

2009-01-24T10:12:00.001-08:00

Every year on christmas night we go to oak city and play games. this year julie had a new game for us and it was alot of fun. The pictures are of after the game, so you can see it turned out funny. Kelly looked like the biggest farmer, and were not really sure what brook looked like but whatever it was it was funny.

Christmas Part 1

Christmas Morning.

Sorry it has taken me so long to get this up. Life has been a little crazy, as if christmas in not enough stress I had the crazy idea to change salons. So i did, i am now working at the Dolly Rocker Salon and so far it has been a really good change. Anyways back to christmas, things were so fun this year Gabby was a little overwhelmed and didnt know what to think. Santa brought her a kitchen with an apron she looks so cute when she wears it. and is cooking me all sorts of things. there will still be more pictures of christmas i will post soon.

Today we went sledding with my family. We had so much fun, we just went up to the sand dunes by oak city. Gabby seemed to have alot of fun even when her cheeks were freezing, so i think she enjoyed her first time sledding at least i know i did.

Kellys brother and his family came down for kellys birthday. It was so nice to have them here.

On this day gabby would not get out of her pjs but i thought she looked really cute so it was ok.

Whenever i try to pack and go anywhere this is what happens. I guess she just likes to help.

Halloween 2008

2008-11-04T08:43:00.000-08:00

this is on friday night when we first put in on.

she is a little happier now

the party at the gathering place

i love this picture she was outside looking through the window. so funny

Halloween this year was a lot of fun Gabby was a pumpkin and hated it at first but by our halloween party on saturday she liked it a lot better i think seeing all the other kids in there costumes helped a little. I dont have many pictures from the party but i plan on getting some and i will post more when i get them. Me and kelly wore those tattoo shirts they looked good it was so much fun.

OUR SUNDAY ER TRIP

2008-11-02T18:06:00.001-08:00

The last to sunday dinners at my moms have included a trip to the ER and today the poor victim was gabby. Her and kelci were running around having a good old time when gabby tripped and fell head first right into the corner of my parents tv. I was in the other room and heard a loud thud and then gabby screaming when i got in there the bump on her head was no lie the size of a golf ball it looked awful and my dad suggested we go get it checked which is alot coming from him but we took his advice. Everything was ok and by the time we got there the swelling had gone down a ton but im glad i took her in just to get it checked. The pictures dont show it very well cause there is still a huge goose egg on her forehead. It is so sad, im just glad it all turned out ok. I dont know if anyone will dare go to my moms next sunday and if we do i hope we dont get another victim

I think this one is the best.

so sad!!

Flashback Friday

2008-10-31T09:22:00.000-07:00

Since its halloween i thought i would post a halloween picture. This is gabby last year on halloween. this year she hates her costume so i hope i can even keep it on long enough to get a picture.

Fun filled Saturday

2008-10-27T18:18:00.000-07:00

Saturday started out with me working for a couple of hours in the morning then my mom called and invited us to go riding at sand mountain with them so we left right when i got off and headed out. It was alot of fun gabby loved the sand. we didnt stay out there very long cause gabby was tired. when we were just getting back into town i called laura to see what she was doing and we ended up going out to her house for dinner. there was laura and chad, kyle and mikki jenson, and me and kelly. it was alot of fun watching the kids play kyson (kyle and mikkis boy) kept us laughing the whole time he would just jump off of everything and usually have a hard landing but the more we laughed the more they did. its kinda fun to watch how they all play together.

Gabby and dad playing in the sand.

she would just lay in it it was so funny.

Deegan, Kyson, and Gabby playing they are all within 2 months in age

Deegan was posing for me he just sat there and said cheese.

Gabby playing the sax. She was the princess of the group.

Funny story

2008-10-25T07:27:00.000-07:00

Yesterday morning i was watching my niece Kelci, she is so funny. she got here early so i asked her if she was hungry and what she wanted for breakfast and she told me she wanted a brownie and i told her i didnt have any brownies and she told me "my mom makes me brownies every morning" i was trying not to laugh and just said wow you have a really nice mom. it was so funny. I thought i was a nice aunt but i guess i dont compare to jenny making brownies every morning. Nice work jenny. (Jenny will have to tell her side on her own blog)

Flashback Friday

2008-10-24T06:48:00.000-07:00

Me and Laura

Now this is a good one. Grandma Joyce gave me this picture not to long ago im really not sure how old we are but its a cute one. Anyone else think this kinda looks like brynn and kelci? Let me know.

Mess maker

2008-10-20T09:43:00.000-07:00

Gabby picked up a bag of chips on the wrong end and this is how it ended up she is my little mess maker. the pictures dont show it very good but it was a mess.

Flashback Friday (thanks jimi)

2008-10-17T18:25:00.000-07:00

Look at those cheeks!!!

Jimi used to do flashback friday and i loved it. My flashback is not that long ago mostly cause i didnt want to scan in a picture, but this is gabby right after she was born. I cant believe how fast she grew up its crazy and kinda sad. I just love this picture of her the funny thing is she still makes that same face.

My trip to ikea (my fav. store).

2008-10-15T09:35:00.000-07:00

Any of you that have been in my house know i love ikea. I think it is the best store ever, until my trip yesterday. Me and laura went up in my moms van to get me a tv stand. i found the one i wanted on the internet, so i just had to go to the store and find it. While we were there i was thinking to my self this is to good to be true. It was not busy at all. We got in and found what i wanted and loaded everything, and we were out in one hour (that is a personal record for me). When we got home kelly started to put the tv stand together and said to me in a joking voice why did you get a white one ( i went up to get a black one) and i just told his to shut up. When i looked at the boxes i started to wonder myself so i opened the other box and it really was white. I was so mad, so i went all the way to ikea for nothing. And what really sucks is the fact that i have to make another trip to get the right one. So everyone needs to learn from me and open the box to make sure you have the right thing before you get home.

2008-10-14T07:22:00.000-07:00

i just wanted to remind anyone who wants to come that my pampered chef party is tomorrow at 6:00 at my house. we are going to make some good stuff. so if you want to come on over.

our lovely weekend project.

2008-10-12T09:50:00.000-07:00

As many of you know when we bought our house we gutted the whole thing everything but the bathroom. well what can i say we should of started in the bathroom. we have ran into one problem after another. yesterday i was trying to shower and could not get any hot water so when i got out i went right into kelly (who was asleep mind you) and in the good mood i was in told him i dont care what you have to do today, you are going to fix the faucet in the bathroom. so kelly being the great husband he is got up and fixed the faucet, so now i can have a hot shower.

What a great guy he didnt complain at all.( i guess he likes hot showers to)

The lovely hole in the wall

Daddys little helper. she really looks up to him.

Sorry about two posts in one day but everyone keeps telling me they want to see my house so i thought i would post a couple pictures of it. these were the only rooms that were clean.

The kitchen

kitchen again

gabbys room

Gabbys new chair

2008-10-09T07:49:00.001-07:00

Gabby found her old car seat in her room and now it is the only place she will sit. the funny thing is she has never liked watching tv until she had her own place to sit.

Gabbys love for shoes.

2008-10-08T07:23:00.000-07:00

Im really not sure why gabby is not dressed in this picture but its still funny.

Since gabby could get around she has loved shoes especially kelci's. But just lately she loves my shoes and can get around in them so good its so funny. So just a warning if you cant find your shoes and gabby is around most likely they are on her feet.

2008-10-07T10:36:00.000-07:00

Sorry there is so many pictures. Gabby had these done for her first birthday by katie moss at peekaboo photos i really need to get some of them enlarged but how do i choose there is so many cute ones its impossible.

This is the look most people get from her

I think this one is so cool it looks like she is praying

Weekend fun!!

2008-10-05T17:36:00.000-07:00

This weekend we went up to payson to stay at kellys moms. Kelly the great white hunter(lol) took his brothers elk hunting while me, kellys mom, and sami(bobbys girlfriend) went shopping at the end of the day i think the girls were shopping longer than the guys were hunting. i guess hunting in the pouring rain it not alot of fun
