Spaghetti with Dad!

Trent once again was an awesome Dad and Husband!
He took Owen to Ogden to have lunch with the girls so I could have some down time!

They went to Golden Corral and had
yummy food and got really messy :)

Sisters!

Thank you Trent for giving me an afternoon off!
I love you!

My new toy!

All I can say is thank you, thank you, thank you
to Trent's parents and Grandparents!
With the money they gave us for Christmas we were able to
buy a Digital SLR!! Which I have been wanting for a long time!
I chose a Nikon D5000 and so far I LOVE it!
Below is some pictures I have taken with the Nikon
and I also played around with a little editing.
See what you think :)

Owen thinking he is big like Daddy!

Build a bear and Bessie!

Bessie decided she wanted to go to build a bear with
her birthday money. So while Trent had a daddy daughter date with Ayla
we went to build a bear.
Hallie had spent the night and decided to go with me,
Bessie and Owen to build a bear.
Everyone had fun! :)

Bessie picked a pink bear.

Here is Hallie and Owen waiting in line.

her bears heart.

Ducks with Daddy!

My husband has been working extra hard and long hours lately
to get us ready to support us when I am out of work.
So... he decided he needed to spend some "man" time with Owen :)
I got a free saturday afternoon to just be alone which was AWESOME!
Trent took Owen to Checker Auto to get lights
for the cars and then to see Uncle Jakes RC air boat
and to feed the ducks!

Owen had so much fun! :)

Poor Owen!

Ok so here is the whole story!
Yesterday evening I was playing with Owen letting him walk up me
and then flipping him over. We play this game all the time,
I seriously have flipped him over 100 times!
But it only takes once to fracture his heel!
So I was letting him climb and flip and on the last flip my hands slid down
his arms and that made his length longer than I was anticipating.
I knew the second my hands slipped that I had hurt him :(
He cried like I never want to hear again!



I hugged and hugged and hugged him until he calmed down which took like 10 minutes.
As soon as I put him down he started crying again and limping!
I thought I may have sprained or broke his foot. Trent and I decided to give him Mortin and see how he did with that. He did ok, he was limping but not crying. I told Trent that if he was limping in the morning I would take him to the doctor.
Sure enough my baby woke up at 5am crying that cry I never wanted to hear again so Trent gave him some milk and some more motrin and voila I got my happy little Owen back!
I told Trent I would take him to the doctor that morning. So at 9 am this morning I took him to the doctor and he agreed that his foot was either sprained or fractured and sent me to the hospital for XRAYS.
Owen was not happy about the XRAYS because I was not allowed to go back with him because I am pregnant. I could hear him from the back while I was in the waiting room with Mabel and Bryce. He was crying and saying "Mom, Mom, Mom" talk about me wanting to ball right there in the middle of the waiting room :(
So after that horrible experience we went home and before we were even out of the car the doctor called and said that Owens heel had a fracture and he would need a cast.
I called my boss and told him what was going on and that I would need to take off early to go get Owens foot casted.
For the second time today we went to the doctors office (But Owen was ok with that because they have lots of fish and Owen LOVES fish!) and picked out a blue cast.
Owen has not learned how to walk in it yet but I am sure he will figure it out. He will have to wear the cast for three weeks and then he is free!
I feel so horrible that this is all my fault but I have also learned that no one is perfect and that I LOVE Owen so much and he has already forgiven me for this.
I love this little boy so much and my heart just aches for him.

Tired Owen!

Lately I have not been very good about making sure Owen
has his normal naps and below are the pictures of the results of
me not giving him his normal naps at his normal time.
To be honest these pictures
make me smile and giggle:)

Here he is falling asleep in his
high chair during dinner

Here he is at his Aunt Jenna's house falling
asleep in the middle of the living room with lots of other
kids running around and being crazy!

That is one tired baby!

Christmas day!

Ok so I am a little behind but at least it is happening a week later!

We have been super busy!
Christmas morning was just me, Trent and Owen.
We opened presents
and ate some breakfast and candy :)


Owen was more interested in M&M's then he was his toys.
He got a big car track from Santa and lots of gifts from Mom and Dad.
Trent left to get the girls at like 10:30 so Owen and I went to see what Santa brought to Suzies kids and then hung out at my Mom's house for a little while.




Trent and the girls got to our house while Owen and I were still napping and
they let me sleep for another hour while they watched some christmas movies.
Then while Owen was still napping the girls opened up our gifts to them
and I LOVED Ayla's reaction to what we got her!
We got her a Fur-Real Dog and she was so excited!

Ayla opening presents!

Bessie opening presents!

Bessie and all her presents!

We got Bessie a Little pony castle and she tried to be excited but
she was not feeling well at all.

Then after that Grammy, Grandpa, Grandma and Grandpa Smith,
Jake, Clay, Madeline and Landon all showed up to exchange gifts, eat and visit.
Grammy provided some yummy food and it was lots of fun and lots of mess! :)
Then my niece Hallie came and spent the night with the
girls and they all had lots of fun!
That was our Christmas!

Merry Christmas :)
