{It's getting HOT!!}

I'm back to posting again!!! I just posted a couple of new ones!!

This week it finally feels like Summer!! Wahooooo!!!!

We have managed to make it to the Spray Park twice this week already

and the kids loved it!!! Kaydree even made a friend there that would help take

her down the slide. :)

My sister-in-law Amber and her daughter Kamryn


Afterwards we all rode the carousel!!!

{Shh......baby sleeping}

Jaxton has always been such a good baby and can put himself to sleep (during the day) all on his own. Since he has become quite the mover I have noticed a pattern of some really funny sleeping positions. Here are some of them!!!! I just love sleeping babies!!!

{Happy Daddy's Day}

Happy Father's Day to the "BESTEST Daddy Ever!!!!"

The kids love Austin to pieces! He's their first pick for hanging out, reading books,

laying in bed with, making forts, sand castles, and getting anything they want out of!!

(Guess who's 2nd??:) )

Here was our attempt at getting a fun picture before church.....

Brayden made up his mind that he was NOT going to! :)

I'm noticing it might be a 3 year old thing. :)

{FOR-EV-ER and a half!!}

It has been almost a month since I posted anything!!! Geesh!!

We have been crazy busy and having lots of fun!!!

MEET MARLEY:

The kids have been begging for a puppy so Austin surprised them one night with one.
He's around 3 months now and was formerly called Charley. We didn't care so much for
the name and so came along the name Marley. The kids love him except the jumping on them part. He's quite the scavenger out here in the country and likes to bring us not so pleasant guests at our front door. :)

Brayden and Kaydree were so happy!!!

2 weeks ago we took a drive over to Sun Valley because I had never been there.

It was so pretty and there were lots of cool bridges. I claim the town of Hailey as

my next place to live!! I love it!!!

I love Brayden's not so happy, happy face!

Every Memorial day we visit our family members gravesites. It's always

such a great experience to relive stories of them and to run into old family friends.

Here is the 21 gun salute where Grandma and Grandpa Farmer are buried and Austin's uncle.

The kids love to go visit their cousins. Amber and Kevin

surprised us this year and had a headstone made for Kurtis.

The footprints on theirs is the real size of their feet. We get

the tenderest of feelings every time we visit here.

And now that summertime(kind of) is here bring on the rodeos!!!

Last weekend we went to the Jefferson Stampede Rodeo and

watched some friends bullride! Next year we'll get the kids started on

riding sheep!! :)

My attempt at getting Brayden to take a picture! :)

And Jaxton!!! He's getting so big and is already 5 months!!

He's starting to act like he's going to crawl and does 360s around

the floor. It's so funny to watch. He's no longer allowed up on the couches though!!:) He is such a sweet baby!!

I plan on posting a lot more soon!! We're still working on our house and yard!!!

{Growing Up Isn't So Bad}

Time has sure been flying by with 3 kids!! Mostly Crazy with lots of fun mixed in but I'm loving every second of it!!!! I realized today that growing up doesn't have to be all that bad. I love the different stages that the kids are in and I personally love getting older. I just wish I could slow time down....that is so that the dishes and laundry would not seem like they are always waiting for me.....life's way too short though to sweat the small stuff!!!! :)

The kids actually took a picture for me! Love it!!!



Jaxton loves his walker and "gets around" pretty good



Kaydree @ Special Olympics with Uncle Aaron


I have a ton more pictures to post!!! We've been busy workin' on the yard!!!!!

{Happy Mother's Day!!!}

For my mom on Mother's Day:

Thank you for the Mother you became, were, and are today!!!

You have been there for me every step of the way and I am

forever grateful of you and for the example you have set for me!!
I love these pictures and the tender moments they have captured!
I love you and hope you have a wonderful, special day!!!

Love, Tammi

{1, 2, ..........}

THREE!!!!!
Brayden turned 3 years old yesterday!!!!
He loved every second of his special day!!


Breakfast in bed!


Blowing out the candles!!!


Opening up his Thomas train set from Grandma and Grandpa!!!

Dancing along with his singing coloring book!

On Saturday night we went to Rexburg to RJUMP!

There are a bunch of blow up things to slide, jump, and play on!

The kids had a great time!!

He had a great birthday!!!!!

And now we are on to other things!!! Like...............(see next post!)

{Adventures of.........}

POTTY TRAINING!!!!!

Eeekk!!! We finally decided to FORCE it upon Brayden and do the whole

potty training thing! If not, we figure he'll be a 40-year old in Diapers!!!

No, he just is a very easy-going(Lazy/busy boy) kid who doesn't want to

take 2 seconds out to take care of much needed business. So, because WE are

such fabulous and mean parents we decided now it the PERFECT time(for us)!

We've been at it since Friday and it's still in the process so stay tuned!!!

(Do you think he'll hate me for posting this picture?? :))

{Jaxton @ 3 months}

This past week Jaxton turned 3 months!

I just can't get enough of this little guy!!!

He brings so much joy to our family and is such a happy boy!!

Some things about him @ this stage:

He likes to stand up and is very strong.

Can still sleep anywhere and through anything(mostly loud siblings).

Has already become a drooler(no teeth though thank goodness).

Likes his face covered when sleeping.

Isn't he just the cutest thing??? :)

{More House Pics!!!}

Finally I'm getting around to posting more pics of the house!!! Yay!!!
I'm not finished decorating of course but I'm having fun!!!


Here's Kaydree's room~ I love the colors!!
