Here we go again!

Well it was that time of year again this last weekend. Our ANNIVERSARY! Which also means LOTOJA! All in all it was a very good weekend. On Thursday, I made Tyler's favorite dinner. (Our Anniversary is Friday.) Then that night, we went to give our little Braelyn her bath. I am always telling Tyler to leave Braelyn's diaper on til just before it is time to put her in, but he rarely does. On this one occasion, I was getting everything ready for Braelyn and Tyler was holding a bare naked girl. You probably just guessed it...Braelyn peed on him. Maybe now he'll take my advice about the diaper! I couldn't stop laughing! Friday morning, Tyler and I spend time together getting everything ready for LOTOJA. He went for a short bike ride and came home with a very funny story... He was riding and a bug hit his shoulder. He didn't think much of it until he got a sharp pain in his lower stomach. The bug was a bee, and it had stung him! I felt bad, but at the same time I thought it was pretty funny. That afternoon, my mom came to pick up Braelyn and Tyler and I left for Logan. After check in, we made our dinner in the Walmart parking lot... He were just going to stay in our car, but our friends Chelsea and Ryan Ottley invited us to stay at their house. Saturday morning we were up bright and early and to the starting line of LOTOJA. Tyler was so excited and looked so sharp in his jersey. The race didn't turn out the way we had hoped. Tyler was sitting top ten and was doing really well. Then he flatted coming down Salt River Pass. His replacement wheel wouldn't tune correctly, so by the time he got to Afton, he was bonked because he had to work twice as hard on a partically unfuctioning bicycle. I love him so much!! We still went to the finish line and supported all of our Simply Mac Teammates. Sunday we went to pick up Braelyn from my parents house. When we were getting her dressed, we were giving her raspberries on her tummy and she was giggling so hard. She did this for about five minutes. Daddy and I were laughing so hard that we were crying. Well, that was our weekend. Now it's back to reality and life! Gotta love it!

Ponies and Piggies! Train Ride to Salt Lake!

Braelyn fell asleep on the way home. So Precious!

Braelyn Has Found Her Thumb

It has finally happened. Braelyn has found her thumb. It is the tastiest thumb! She absolutely loves it! I have a picture of her sleeping while sucking on her thumb. It is super cute (I'd post it, but my phone is dead, so I can't. It will come once there is life back in the phone :) ) I love my little munchkin!

Mama's Little Sports Girl

I couldn't help it! I had to put Braelyn in her Jazz and Utes outfits. Once I put them on, it was just too cute not to wear for the day. They may be a little big, but that's okay! Love them!

It's September!!

September is my favorite month! I'm so happy that it is finally here! There are three reasons that this is my favorite month. First, my birthday is this month! Second, Tyler and I got married in September. We will be celebrating our second anniversary on the 9th! Third, because last year, we found out that our biggest blessing would be coming to us. We love our little Braelyn Rose. Braelyn keeps getting so close to rolling over, but that silly girl likes sucking on her fingers too much so her arms stop her. I'm guessing in the next couple weeks she will be rolling over!

Sanpete Road Race

Middle of the Race

Finish of the race. Tyler didn't win, but he did really well and was in three separate breakaways including a solo break. Yay most aggressive rider!

Finally Able to Blog!

It has been such a crazy week this week! I have been dying to blog and haven't been able to or had the time to. On Monday morning, Braelyn and I loaded up in the car and left for Stansbury Park/Tooele. She did so good on the way down. She slept almost the whole way and didn't fuss at all! We got to Trinity's house and unloaded. She loved seeing Braelyn! Then we found out that the hospital was full so Kelsee couldn't go in til Wednesday, which was the whole reason I went to Tooele in the first place on Monday. Rather than drive home and drive back, I stayed at Trin's house and helped pack and watch the girls. We did quite a bit while we were there. We went to Sweet Pea and I found a couple cute dresses for Braelyn for $10. Another day we went to the D.I. and I found a winter jacket, a dress, and a cute little vest for less than $10. We ate at Emily's house and Livvy and Gavin loved playing with Braelyn. Bekah and Korah couldn't get enough of her either. On Wednesday, Tyler decided he missed me too much, so he came to Tooele and surprised me with a hotel stay at the Hampton--my favorite hotel. Trinity watched Braelyn for us. He still had to workt he next day, so he left early in the morning, but I got to sleep in and spent some time at the pool. On Thursday night, Kelsee ended up having to have a C-section so I sent Trin to the hospital and put the girls to bed. When Trin got back, we stayed up until 3 am just talking. It was fun catching up with her. On Friday (I was originally planning on coming home on Wednesday) I went to go see baby Caydence. She was five days early, 7 pounds, 14 ounces, and 20 inches long. I left for home on Friday afternoon and once I got home, I decided that Braelyn and I would go with Tyler and his dad for the bike race the next day, so we left again at 8:30 pm for Redmond. We stayed the night at Grandma June's house and went to the race Saturday morning. It was a beautiful day and Tyler did really well. I was so proud of him. After dinner, we headed for home and got here about 10 pm last night. My bed really missed me. As soon as I climbed in, I fell asleep and didn't wake up until 8 this morning. So there is my crazy and eventful week! It makes me tired just writing about it!!

Braelyn happy as could be while we were shopping at the D.I. I had to get a picture for Daddy!

Braelyn sticking her toungue out at Mama during Tyler's bike race. Such a cutie!

While we were in Redmond, we made a trip to Salina where my Great-Grandma Mickelsen lived. I took a picture of what used to be her house. It's changed a little bit, but the memories are still the same. I haven't been inside since November of 1999. I love you Grandma Bernice! She is the grandma that I share a birthday with and whom I am named after.

We must have wore Braelyn out this week. She has slept a ton today! Poor girl scratched her eye after church today :( so sad!!
