6 MONTHS OLD!!

He can't be 6 months old already???

On my birthday Traceon got to celebrate his first half birthday with me! We are exactly 21 years and 6 months apart...pretty cool!

He has mastered sitting up!

Daddy was soooo sick with the stomach flu on Monday (my b-day) ALL NIGHT! He got up in the morn to head to Boise for 9 days, cause he wanted to get this drill out of the way SICK or NOT! Anyway little Trace woke up Tuesday morning sick too! I didn't feed him anything but Pedialite all day! So sad! He definatly wasn't as sick as dad...and felt better by dinner time. Here he is on his "sick blanket" w/ puke bowl included. He fell asleep as I was cleaning up some dishes. I thought it was so sweet.


Wednesday was Traceon's 6 month check up! He is a whopping 18.2 lbs (60%) and 28 in long (95%)! Dr. Baker and I discussed his eye issue and decided to start at an optymologist here in IF to see what is actually wrong with his eyes. They got us in a lot quicker that Primary Children's...but I'm still keeping that apt. till we know more! He got shots....and did so good! His little legs are sore, but he's a champ!

Later that night Aydan started to play Peek-A-Boo with Traceon. Oh man it was just one big giggle fest! Nothing like your big bro making you feel better when you've had a rough couple of days! So CUTE!

Hiding...

Peek-A-Boo!


I love this pic...They love eachother soooooo much! It's been incrediable to see them interact!


Turning 6 months means NEW BINKIS!! And they even match my NEW JAMS!


So I finally got the chance to take Traceon's 6 month pics today! SOOOO CUTE! Man he's a good lookin' kid! Enjoy on the incrediable picture OVERLOAD! Can you blame me...he's got grandma's and grandpa's that live far far away! Plus who doesn't like looking at a ton of pics...especially of a cute little babe!




























We love him so much!

I wanted to take pics outside but he was sick, now it's cold, so I took them inside! Not so bad....oh and I love my CRAMRA...as Aydan would say!

22 down...Lots more to go!

Well I tured 22 on Monday! And it feels AWESOME!

I has such a great Sunday-Monday! Sunday we headed out to Justin's dads house for some celebration action!

Here are the boys getting some Polson grandparent time in!

Jennifer made me a heart-shaped cake! So sweet...it was delicious too!

Aydan sporting his fohawk!

Me w/ my cake!

After cake Uncle Garrett thought it would be a good idea to get the squirt guns out! The boys didn't have swimsuits...and got totally soaked....

By grandpa...

Then we went to my dad's house for some more partying!

Traceon and I are exactly 21 years and 6 months apart...and we weighed the same when we were born...and he melts my heart!

22 years old is never too old to be a goof ball jumping on the tramp! I am soooooo HAPPY! I LOVE EVERY MINUTE OF MY WONDERFUL LIFE!

Ah man these cupcakes were to die for! Yum!! Thanks Jerri for making them and making me feel extra special!


Grandma/Aunt Jerri got the kids balls to play with, and they were the highlight of the evening!

My handsome Aydan!

Here are all the BEAUTIFUL cards I recieved! And no...everybody who is concerned...I will not spend my B-day money on groceries! Ha! Ha! Thank you! And I love you! I have some things in mind...some BIG things!

What a great "Day of all Days"

I ended my wonderful birthday by quite a challenge....

Justin had the stomach flu...BAD...SO BAD...so that left me to attemp to pack him for his drill in Boise. He was leaving early in the morning! I struggled...A LOT...but I think I didn't forget anything...and prepared him well! Poor guy was sick all dang night! When it was time to go...he still was SUPER SICK! He had any IV put in him as soon as he got to the base in Boise and is feeling much better!

One GOOD Mother's Day!

I love everything there is to being a mom! The feeling that I had when I first held each boy in my arms for the first time was so powerful and so full of love. Despite all the bodily functions, exhaustion, and back talks, it's all worth it with a simple love from one of my two special little boys! And it makes me appreciate my mom even more now that I have children of my own. I'm so blessed that god gave me her as my mom. Now I know why the mommy claws came out a few times! Mom you are a beautiful person, so strong, and loving, that because of you I am who I am today, and I thank you with all my heart!

I woke up Sunday morning (Mother's day) to Aydan running to my bedside and saying, "Happy Mofers Day mommy!" Melted my heart instantly! Aydan's such a sweetheart! While I got to sleep in (a little bit) Aydan had a pretty good idea; make mom a mofers day card! So cute! There's pics of him showing it off later in the post.

When I rolled out of bed the boys had already started making breakfast! Yum! My fav, french toast, brown sugar sausage links, and flippy eggs (over easy)!! Boy did I feel special!! There were beautiful flowers too!!

After breakfast I got to open my present! I was shocked when Aydan brought out a NEW CAMERA!! WHAT? Yes that makes 4 (technically) cameras....I'm starting to feel a little like my dad! (He's got a collection as well!) Justin is so silly! His thought was, I take so many good pics that I deserved a more professional camera! Wow, I guess we'll what I can come up with now. Justin took Aydan out "Mother's Day shopping" and when they came back Aydan just kept telling me that they got me a present...but he didn't spill the beans to me until the final moment! He was so excited! The night before Justin was talking about them making breakfast in the morning and Aydan asked me, "What do you want for breakfast?" and I said, "Well what sounds good to you?" He got mad at me and said, "No you pick, it's your mofer's day!" WHAT A KID!! I love him to pieces!!

Here's my card with the boys handprints on the inside! So precious!

Here are my beautiful flowers, that smell sooo awesome!

And here is my new toy! Which I love by the way! Who knows what I'll be taking pictures of now? I can't wait to learn about it and experiment!


I took a lot of pics yesterday, just to play. Here are Tra's little toes!

Here he is chewing on some tape! So cute, I just want to kiss those cheeks all time! Mommy loves you buddy!

Here's Aydan showing off his card he made for me! How adorable is he??


Jumpin' on the tramp at Grandpa Polson's house!

Pics like these....SWEET!

Ridin' on the lawn mower...pickin' up all the dead grass!


I had a wonderful mother's day with my awesome kids! They make all days my special day!

Shout out to all you mamma's out there making a difference in your sweet peas lives!!

Something to blog about...

Hello!!

I thought I'd blog about some stuff.

First:

My life is,
Amazing.
Full of Love.
Challenging.
Full of Laughter.
Inspiring.
Full of Light.
Wow...it's good to be me!

Here is my wee little bud, trying very hard to eat his toes, spite his fatty legs.

My oldest was spoiled and stayed up with mom and dad to watch a movie...but didn't make it.

Sitting up like a big boy!! Traceon's really working on sitting up all on his own, but he gets so excited that he kicks himself backwards!

Look at how long my baby is!

What a geek! I love him so much!!

Justin says this one's for you dad/Grandpa Snyder! I know you've been waiting!

Cute bum!

Here are the boys showing off their new jams!! So sweet! So snuggly! So mine!




This is me, after I was pooped on! Ewwewewewew! That's gross!

Aydan has a wild imagination! Here he is doing "homework" on his "laptop computer"


Second:

Can we talk about AVATAR!!
I bought it at Walmart without watching first, but I new we would want it! Brought it home and suprised Justin. He was not so happy about me actually buying it...little did he know that it's a MUST BUY!!
I love it!
It made me cry!
It made me laugh!
It made me stir in my seat!
I want to be an Avatar!
I have had dreams about it since watching it!
I want to watch it everyday!
I'm sad that we didn't go see it in 3D at the theater!
It's my favorite action movie!

I've never had a movie impact me like that before.
It's about Possibility.
Life.
Creation.
Imagination.
The Universe.
Love.
Heros.
It's amazing! RENT IT, BUY IT, Whatever you have to do to see it! SEE IT!

(OH by the way Garrett and Steph, I know that Jacob/Jake (the main character in Avatar) is a name you're thinking about for your little guy...I think you should seriously consider it! He! He! There I've put in my 2cents!)




Oh silly me!
Have a superfantasticwonderfulamazingloving weekend everyone!
