Chase's first haircut
This little guy is growing up way too fast! I couldn't believe it was time for his first haircut! With Brody I waited forever to give him his first hair cut-it was so hard for me becuase it's a huge sign that they are just growing up too fast! Chase did very well to sit there while Grandma Bingham made him look handsome! Thanks Grandma Bingham-we love you!
Making Cookies
On my last day off Brody, Chase and I decided to make cookies to take to our neighbors for a Halloween treat! We had a lot of fun, but as you can tell-we got carried away with the flour!
Hay Ride
It was the Saunder's family Halloween Party! We had so much fun! We went on a hay ride and then were able to pick out our own pumpkins! It was a Halloween dress up party-but Brody didn't last long as Captain Hook! Chase is Peter Pan, I am Wendy and Shane is Smee (we didn't get his costume done in time).

Chase Is 6 Months!
I cannot believe how fast the time has gone! I really thought that having a second little baby would help me stop, relax and enjoy it more...i have enjoyed it-every minute-but I didn't think he would grow up so darn fast! It makes me so sad-I can't even remember him as a newborn. How precious time is! You just blink and the next thing you know, they are 3 (like Brody)!
This is him today! 6 Months old! He has the cutest smile and biggest blue eyes! I love this little boy! He brings so much to my life! I am so glad that he is apart of my family! More so, I feel so privileged to be his mommy (same to you Brody! I love both my boys!)

The People We Love
Corey
This is Shane's brother, Corey. As a family we love him so much! He is such a good brother to us and a wonderful uncle to our boys. I know that Brody loves him a ton (even though he calls him his favorite aunt)!
I remember the first time that I met Corey, it was at the airport when he returned home from his mission. It took awhile to get to know him, he was in "missionary mode" for a long time! I remember when I went with him to go get some pizza for dinner and that was the first time I realized how funny he was and how great he was to hang around! Since then he has come to mean more to me than just a brother-in-law. He is a friend, and a really good one too! Plus I consider him to be as close to me as my own brother!
I also know that Shane loves and appreciates his relationship with him. They are only a year apart in age, so they have been around each other for a long time! They are good friends and they have alot of fun together! They are a wonderful example to my little boys of how brothers should be towards one another!
My boys do love him too! Corey was there for alot of the time with Brody growing up, always playing blocks, and basketball! Plus he has even let Brody play with his Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles! He lives farther away now, so Chase doesn't see him as much as Brody did, but anytime Corey is around, he is the one willing to hold the little guy!
Thanks so much Corey! We love you!

Reflection of Brody
Journal Question
What is your favorite game?
I love games! My grandma would play them with me all the time growing up (Uno and Skipbo). Then when I met Shane, I learned really fast that I needed to get involved and learn new games!
I love Rook! I started out by not liking it at all! But then when I was pregnant with Brody I was determined to learn and play-then all through my pregnancy that is all I wanted to do! Shane and I joke that I craved Rook rather than a certain food (which I really did-corn dogs!)
Then the Cowans (our wonderful friends) introduced us to "Killer Bunnies"! It is this way confusing card game with no point but so much fun! After Brody was born we would always head up to the Cowans apartment and play this game for hours! Love it!
Then I really like "Who, What, Where". This is a silly drawing game that always brings out the best chuckles!
Right now though, I am addicted to "Settler's". Again, this was a game that I wasn't to interested in when I first started playing, but now I can't get enough of it!
There are still so many games that I really like! But these are just to name my favorites!

Brody is 3!
I can't believe that my little baby is now a growing little boy! He is 3 (and i admit, still not potty trained)! We had a sports themed party. We had so much fun (I hope everyone else can say the same thing)! Thanks to all those who came and for all the help that they provided!
I didn't get much pictures, so sorry if for those who came and you don't see yourself in any.

Finally! Disneyland Pictures!!
We saw so many Disney characters! The only one out of the Mickey gang that we never found was Donald Duck.
But Brody loved meeting the characters! The cutest was when he met Winnie the Pooh, Tigger and Eyore!
Here are the gentleman with the lovely Jasmine!
Here is Brody and Shane with the famous Captain Jack Sparrow.
Help! We are trapped! This trap was made from Matt, Calie, Melissa, Aaron, and Brynn's bones! We are next! (Michelle is safe-you can see her in the background!)
Here is the whole gang! Thanks mom and dad for the greatest trip! We had so much fun!
My Best Friend!
I have had a few good friends in my life: Shari, Rachel, Shelly, Mattie (my only brother), J'lyn, Megan, Sherri, and I could keep going....but not to be too cheesy, Shane is my ultimate best friend! With all the things that I have been through recently there has never been anyone more patient, forgiving, loving and kind than Shane. I am so grateful to him for all the he does for me and the boys-espiaclly with his busy schedule of work, school and the Young Mens! Thanks Shane for being everything I have needed and wanted-and more!! Love you!
My Family
Aaron & Melissa
This here is my sister Melissa and her adorable husband Aaron. I wanted to say a few special things about them and let them know how much I love them. First, I want to thank Aaron for putting up with me-even though he thinks I am the weirdest person he has ever met! Thanks for being a good guy and fun to tease! Melissa is so lucky to have you!
So much can be said about Melissa! I love her so much! She has done so much for me and for my little guys! They love their Aunt Lissa! The other day was Brody's birthday and I was really needing some help and Melissa came to my rescue! Thanks so much Lissa-you helped out more than you'll ever know! Melissa is such a sweet and loving person and she will help anyone!
Love you guys! Thanks for being apart of our lives!
