Very Long Overdo!

We finally got our extra bathroom redone so I thought maybe we would try our hand at potty training. I bought Ryder this little seat that goes on the normal seat. He loves it and uses it daily, but not the way I wish he would. He thinks it makes a perfect hat. I guess it's a good thing that he hasn't ever used it with its intended purpose.


So Ryder was out side playing and I heard a little knock at the door. When I opened it Ryder was standing there with a bunch of flowers. I was so sad! I planted over 60 bulbs last fall. I now have not one flower to show for it. Some of them just didn't make it, but those that did fell victim to Ryder.

Ryder helping his dad build something. He loves his dad

and has to do everything that his dad does.

Ryder in his cute Easter outfit. He looked so dang handsome.

This is one of the saddles that Jarrett won back in the day and we have to display in our family room. Ryder loves it though. Everyday he climbs up there with his rope and hat and pretends to rope things for hours and yell "yee haw". Its quite entertaining to watch and listen to him. He is a funny boy.

Things for us are pretty much the say. We just seem to stay busy with work, church calling, cows, family and friends. Jarrett spends all of his extra time outside creating and constructing stuff. He has been building horse stalls in our back yard lately. Ryder is busy as ever. Always finding something to get into. He has gotten really good at throwing fits. I guess this is what the terrible two's are all about (love it!) Jarrett, Ryder and I were able to go through the temple May 1 and be sealed as a family. It was a really awesome day! And lastly Jarrett and I are expecting our 2nd child Nov. 7. We are really excited, but even more scared! Most days I wonder what we have gotten ourselves into. It will be fun though and my cousing Morgan and his wife are due 2 days after me. I will have to have another c-section so I will have that Oct 29 so we will have a fun little halloween baby. We go to find out what we are having on Monday the 24. I can't wait to start making and buying things.
