bitter sweet

My baby is ONE today.
Does that mean he's not a baby anymore?
If so, that makes me very, very sad. I am soo in love with this baby and I don't want him to grow up, cause that means I will want another baby, and what the heck will I do with THREE kids?!...It would be chaos. CHAOS.
But one day, I am sure to be living in it. As for now, I just want my baby to STAY a baby.
This year has really been the fastest year of my life.
I have heard, "The days are long, but the years are short" Sooo true.
Happy Birthday Jacer!! I love you more than anything.
Unfortunately, I got REALLY sick over the weekend and couldn't have his party tonight, and am feeling really bad about his lame birthday. Good thing he won't remember. :) I am planning on having his little party this weekend. So pics of cake shoved in his face will be on my next post.

Straight from the mouth..

of Bentley

[driving in the car]

Bentley: "mooooomieee.....the sun's in my eyes!"

Me: "Maybe you should close your eyes."

Bentley: "No, you should move the sun."

Me mumbling under my breath with a laugh: yes, son, I will get right on that.


Bentley: "mom? will you open my delicious pistachio? This one's hard."

Two very big words in that sentence. I couldn't stop laughing.


[at Costa Vida]

Bentley walks up to some random teenage boy and asks, "Hey, where's the trash?"

random teenage boy: "um..right over there" pointing to the garbage can with a strange look on his face.

Bentley: "Oh! Thank you."

K..so that one might not be funny to you, but I died laughing over that too.

This kid seriously cracks me up everyday. He is just so funny.

Post Addendum:

I wrote this post this morning before church..Today in Sacrament meeting, while the sacrament was being passed in the SILENT chappel; Bentley's stomach lets out a big, long growl. And then we hear this in a loud voice...

Bentley: "Daddy! My tummy is talking to you! It says, HI DADDY!"

Me, Dallin and the nearby people: quiet laughter

Please don't go Fall...

My kiddos and me

My cute mom and me

Puss n. Boots.

My grumpy Ogre..

Brooke and I tryin to be sassy.

Thanks for taking these awesome pics!! http://www.blushbybk.com/

Good times at the Pumpkin Patch...

Not ready for you to come Winter..

My silly Bentley & a Halloween party

This is what Bentley has looked like lately. This is the Puss n' Boots hat that goes to Jace's costume. [pics to follow]


He wears it around the house, outside to play, while eating lunch and even wore it to the park yesterday.

Hey..whatever makes him happy..fits him better anyway..

Last Saturday was the Whitear Halloween Party. We looked like this:

The witch, the wizzard, Shrek and Puss N' Boots.

They looked like this:

I really wish I would have gotten pictures of everyone's costumes. There was some good ones. Cambria was static. You can just imagine what she looked like.............funny, huh?

Let the fun begin..

My baby is starting to walk! He is showing interest a lot sooner than Bentley did. I love the way they walk when they are first learning; like their bottle was spiked with a little somethin' somethin'. haha

I just can't bring myself to cut it
maybe that means he is a big boy now and cutting his hair into a short spikey do will make him look well...big ... or maybe I just don't like to cut my kids hair-look at Bentley's..

I usually end up doing this with his long hair.. The comb over

On another note...these boys are silly

Isn't it the perfect time of year to go for walks? And I do have to say, I think we live in the most beautiful part of Utah! I love being surrounded by the beautiful mountains.

Just cause..

I think they're so cute.

This picture is for Dallin.

He HATES when I let the kids run around the house with no pants on. But Jace won't hold still for 2 seconds to let me change his diaper let alone put his pants back on and now that Bentley is potty trained..it's just easier to be free and not where pants around the house. Hey..pick your battles..right? :)

my silly, silly boy.. notice the frog he hung on the fireplace?..yep that's my kid. :)

I am trying to squeeze in a few more outside water days before it gets too cold...
Dallin and I filled up the pool and put it underneath our slide. That is some serious fun.

I told my friend Brooke to drop off her kids so they could get in on the action..........

She wasn't expecting to see this..

Ya, Dallin shot her right in the face. She had make-up on-ready to go..

Note to Dallin: girls don't like to get shot in the face by a high pressure water gun right before they are going somewhere..

She sought revenge.

And she got it!.. Here is unsuspecting Dallin coming home from work.

Dallin: Megs why are you holding the camera?

Me: umm...cause your so cute, I want to take a picture of you.

Dallin: [puzzled look on his face]

and then BAM! Shot by the super soaker... Didn't even see it comin'

10 months...

ago today, I had this beautiful baby..

He's growing so fast..

He does this new thing with his tounge when he's trying really hard to do something. [This time, he was trying to grab my camera]

He is such a happy, smiley, giggly baby. I love my Jaceroo.
