Nield Christmas Party!

Every year all us Nields get together for our annual Christmas party. This year we booked the church. It was great. The kids could run around and the boys could play basketball. We had a yummy Christmas dinner and played games and just chatted. After grandma gave all the kids their Christmas presents. Brylee and CJ each got a really cute pair of Pj's.The only thing that wasn't great about our party was that not everyone could come. We really missed those who missed out!

Thanksgiving!

We had Thanksgiving at my Grandma and Grandpa Blaus house this year. Of course it was so delicious. I ate so much I almost didn't have room for pie. I said almost! I love Pumpkin pie. It is my favorite! CJ couldn't get enough of my Grandmas banana cream pie. Yummy. Talking about it is making me hungry!Brylee and MckaylaCJ and Grandpa DenoGrandma Blau

Baby Shower!

Yes I know I'm a little behind on blogging. I'm going to try and catch up. So lets start where I left off!
Well right before Thanksgiving we went to Idaho Falls to my niece Laceys baby Shower. She is having a boy and is due in January. She has the cutest belly. I just love that pregnant glow people get! After the baby shower Chelsie let the kids ride her horse. Brylee thought that was a blast! It was so much fun hanging out with family.

Cute belly!

Don't you just love it when everyone touches your belly!

Five and a Duck!

I have a funny story I wanted to share. My sisters sister in law Heather was taking our family pictures a couple weeks ago. I told her that When I got pregnant with my next baby I wanted her to take some pregnancy pictures of me so I can always remember being pregnant. She asked me how many kids Justin and I were planing on having. I told her we planned on having five and then we would like to adopt one. She gave me a strange look and then giggled a little. Then repeated five and a duck? I laughed and said not a duck, adopt! She said she thought that was the strangest response to that question she has ever heard. I saw her about a week after and she said she still can't stop laughing about it.
Any ways she did a great job with our pictures. She has such great talent. you should check out some of her work on her blog http://hcbphoto.blogspot.com/ .
Here are our family photos!

CJ is now one!

On Oct 8Th my baby boy turned one. Wow has the last year flown by so fast! It just seems like yesterday that I had this grumpy little new born who I had to feed from a tube, he never slept or never stopped screaming. People would tell me that they had never seen a baby who cried so much. Despite all the crying you couldn't help but fall in love with him. He is still a handful (to say the least), but he has developed such a fun personality. He already is a tease, likes to wrestle with his dad and has a temper like you wouldn't believe. He fights with his sister, but will randomly go and give her a big hug. His first word wasn't dad or mom it was dog. He loves to hug soft things and is learning to walk. I'm so excited to see my little boy turn into a man. I love you CJ! Happy Birthday!

Justin and I gave him a giant soft Dinosaur. He loves it! He loves to go and give it big hugs!

His Grandma Bonnie made him this adorable puppy blanket. Every time he sees it he says Dog! Dog! It's so cute!

For his Birthday we rented a hotel room and use the pool for his party. It was a ton of fun. CJ is a little fish. He is to brave. He would rather just go on his own and not have us hold on to him. We made him puppy cupcakes and ordered pizza for dinner. I think everyone had a good time.

We had one little scare. My Nephew Ryan got into the pool without his life jacket. Walked a little to deep. My sister yelled for someone to grab him. I had CJ in my arms so I had to hurry and put him down. My sister in law and I jumped in the pool to grab him at the same time. The only difference was I was wearing my swimsuit and Cam was fully clothed. Shoes and all. At least she checked her pockets first! Sorry to get you all wet, but thanks for jumping in! I told you you should have swam with the rest of us! :) Afterwards I watched my sisters kids while her and her husband went to a movie. The kids all got to bath in the giant jetted tub and we all cuddled up on the bed and watched Snow White. Then my sister came and took my kids over night so Justin and I could enjoy a nice romantic evening in our Honeymoon suite. It was a great day! Thanks you to everyone who came to celebrated CJs first year with us!

Growing up too fast!

My sisters little girl Nicole just had her sixth birthday. I can't believe it. It just seem like yesterday when she was our round little chubby baby. But know she is growing up way too fast. She is so beautiful, loving and smart. Her party was fun. Her mom made her a dang cute Tinkerbell cake and my kids had fun running around and wrestling their daddy.HAPPY BIRTHDAY NICOLE! WE LOVE YOU!

Summer Fun!

I know it's been a while since I blogged last so I am going to play catch up. Here's whats been going on with us this summer!

We went to Logan Fair with my sister and her kids. It was a lot of fun. A lot more fun than last year. It took her a while but she started to love the rides. She didn't want to get off. On one of the ride the operators was nice and just let her stay on for several turns.

We went to Bear Lake several times. Brylee Loved to play in the sand (not the water).

CJ loved to eat the sand and hang out with his Mommy!

We also went to the Ogden pool with my sister and her family. I love that pool it is so much fun for the kids. Brylee learned to like the water and CJ loved to crawl till his face was going under it!

My nephew Ryan learning to hold his breath!

We also had our Nield reunion. It was a blast. We all went camping at Dawneta Hot springs. We swam all day and played all night. It was both of my kids first time camping and staying in a tent. It was so much fun to get together as a family!
