Bee's Game

(This is a pretty late post.)

Our good friends Erica and Dustin invited the three of us to join them at a bees game! I have been wanting to take Connor forever and finally we were able to go. Connor loves baseball and is always wanting Logan or myself to throw the ball to him so he can hit it. So it was perfect.. Like i thought Connor LOVED it. We were sitting clear across from where you can see the train but knowing Connor he was able to spot of the train. So we ran over there and got on the train, all the little kids where sticking their hands out so everyone could give them hi 5. Connor did as well. I love that smile he gives me when he is just the happiest boy alive. " Mommy i road train and gave hi 5 and watched base....balll"!!

Loves of my life

Best Buds

Last Saturday i watched Xander Bug for Angie. He is the cutest little 1 year old boy. I just love watching him, He has such a big personality. So all day saturday we were outside playing in the water and the boys LOVED it. At first they didnt like it cause it was cold but in the end they were running back and forth all day long. Xander and Connor are going to be BEST FRIENDS.

June 19 2010

Last Saturday we had a wedding to go to. It was Logan 's brother's dads wedding. HAHA got that. It was so much fun!! Connor just loved dancing. Himself and Gracie where really the only ones out there dancing and it was the cutest thing ever.

Congrats Robin and Fred

Monkey's favorite song.

So lately Connor has been just learning EVERYTHING. He knows all the little kids song. But this one really shocked me. One night at while i was driving to Logan's he started singing "Can we pretend that airplanes,in the night sky,are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now,wish right now,wish right now". It was so cute. ( i guess i listen to that song to much)

So now when we get in the car he always ask mommy "Airplanes"!!! As soon as it starts Connor goes "Ready mom, Ready mom" and we starts singing..

I just love my little man, he is learning so much now and i love watching him grow.

You have made such a difference,

having you as my mother.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOMMY

I love you and i hope you have a wonderful birthday. Thanks for always being there for me when i needed you the most.

Happy Fathers day!!

Happy Fathers day to all the wonderful Fathers.

My daddy for always being there for me when i need someone to hug,

To my brother when i needed someone to make me laugh,

and to Logan, for stepping in and being a father to Connor.

Without these three guys in my life i don't know where i would be. I'm so lucky to have them in my life. I hope you all had a wonderful day you all deserve it more then anything.

You are my Sunshine

Last night we were driving home and i was just thinking of just about everything. It just seemed that everything ran through my mind all at once. I hate when that's happens.

I'm i really a good mom??.

I'm so scared that I'm not doing a good job. I know everyone tells me that I'm a great mom. But really I'm i being the best mom i can possibly be. It really sucks not to have the money to do everything i want to do for Connor. I feel like at times that i could do so much better. I just hope that Connor feels like I'm doing a good job. I know that no matter what i have or what i have done for Connor, that I'm always going to have my little boy with me. I know that he is my shooting star, my whole world.

So last night when we got home, Logan went to make Connor bed while i sat in the living room holding my baby trying to get him back to sleep. I just thought more and more about me being a good mom. So as i rocked him back to sleep i sang him one songs and told him a quote from my favorite book. (I say this quote to him every-night for the past two years)

"I'll love you forever

I'll like you for always

As long as I'm living

My baby you'll be."

and the song my mom would always sing this to us if we were ever feeling down or sick

"You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are grey.
You'll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away."

HAPPY

List 10 things that make you happy, one of them needs to be something that has happened to you/for you today and then pick 5 fellow bloggers that make you smile. And then they hopefully pass it along to keep the smiles going 'round

#1 Connor!

He is my world and so much more! He has just the best personality every, one min he is SO shy and the next he is running around like a mad man. I love when we are laying down and he grabs my neck and say "here mommy lay down" he lets me lay on his chest, or when he says "Mommy kiss" it just warms my heart. He can defiantly be a pill sometimes so when he is really sweet and helpful I just melt.

#2 Logan.

He makes me laugh when I need it. He pushes me to do things I would never be brave enough to do on my own. He helps me find my voice, my opinion, without being walked on. He notices little things i do. He loves me for who i am. He step in to be Connor Dad. There is a lot more, but yes...Logan makes me VERY happy.

#3 Baths.

I LOVE taken bubble bath. If I'm ever stressed out I just turn on the bathwater to really hot, crawl in and just lay there.

#4 Family.

Family is everything to me! They are the ones who will always be here for me, never turn there back on me, and will always be there if i

ever need a laugh.

#5 Beaches

I love walking with my shoes off in the sand. I so wish i lived right next to the beach! I could stay there all day

#6 Sunsets.

I love looking at them. It just makes me so relax

#7 My Purse

Haha i love purses lets just say I'm a little obsessed.

#8 Chocolate. Enough Said.

#9 Shopping

Come on ever girl loves shopping.. I miss my shopping buddy (Jennie). Now i have to Beg Logan to go with me. But i could spend HOURS just looking around and going back to the stores i already went through.

#10 My New Camera

Today i went and bought my camera. I'm SO bad with camera this will be my 3rd one.... BUT I love taking pictures. I take it with me where ever I go, and I USE it! I capture every moment I can on camera.

Now I'm supposed to tag 5 people.

But you all know I don't like to leave anyone out. So if you read my blog, go ahead and consider yourself Tagged! I'll be waiting to hear what makes YOU happy!

Never judge someone.

So i got this email today and it gave me the chills. I just love it. Never judge someone.... 'Some people!' snorted a man standing behind in the Long line at the grocery store. 'You would think the manager would pay attention and Open another line, 'said a woman. At the front of the line to see the hold up was A well dressed, young woman, trying to get the machine To accept her apparent credit card. No matter how many times She swiped it, the machine kept rejecting it. 'It's one of them welfare card things. Damn people Need to get a job like everyone else,' said the man The young woman turned around to See who had made the comment. It was me,' he said, pointing to himself. The young lady's face began to change expression. Almost in tears, she dropped the welfare card onto the Counter and quickly walked out of the store.. Everyone In the checkout line watched as she began running to Her car. Never looking back, she got in and drove away. Several minutes later a young man walked into the Store. He went up to the cashier and asked if she had Seen the woman. After describing her, the cashier told Him that she had run out of the store, got into her Car, and drove away. 'Why would she do that?' asked the man. Everyone in The line looked around at the fellow who had made the Statement. 'I made a stupid comment about the Welfare card she was using. Something I shouldn't Have said. I'm sorry,' said the man. 'Well, that's bad, real bad, in fact. Her brother was Killed in Afghanistan two years ago. He had three Young children and she has taken on that Responsibility. She's twenty years old, single, and Now has three children to support,' he said in a very Firm voice. 'I'm really truly sorry. I didn't know,' the complainer replied, Shaking both his hands about. The young man asked, 'Are these paid for?' pointing to The shopping cart full of groceries. 'It wouldn't take her card' the clerk told him. 'Do you know where she lives?' asked the man who had Made the comment. 'Yes, she goes to our church.' 'Excuse me,' he said as he made his way to the front Of the line. He pulled out his wallet, took out his Credit card and told the cashier, 'Please use my card. PLEASE!' The clerk took his credit card and began to Ring up the young woman's groceries. Hold on,' said the former griper. He walked back to his Shopping cart and began loading his own groceries onto The belt to be included. 'Come on people. We got three Kids to help raise!' he told everyone in line. Everyone began to place their groceries onto the fast Moving belt. A few customers began bagging the food And placing it into separate carts.. 'Go back and get Two big turkeys,' yelled a heavyset woman, as she Looked at the man. 'NO,' yelled the man. Everyone stopped dead in their Tracks. The entire store became Quiet for several seconds. 'Four turkeys,' yelled the Man. Everyone began laughing and went back to work. When all was said and done, the man paid a total of $1,646.57 for the groceries. He then walked over to The side, pulled out his check book, and began Writing a check using the bags of dog food piled near The front of the store for a writing surface. He Turned around and handed the check to the young man.. 'She will need a freezer and a few other things as Well,' he told the man. The young man looked at the check and said, 'This is Really very generous of you.' 'No,' said the man.. 'Her brother was the generous one.' Everyone in the store had been observing the odd Commotion and began to clap.. A great example of why we should be kind and patient: Kindness is the language the blind can see and the deaf can hear. Never Judge a person because you never know what heartaches they are living with.A good saying to remember is: You should never pass judgement until you have walked a mile in their shoes.

Alyssa Marie

Miss Alyssa Marie is 5!

I really cant believe that my niece is already 5. I remember when my sister first told us that she was pregnant with her. We were all excited to know that we would have a new baby in the family. I was just happy that i was going to be a aunt finally. Alyssa is such a min me, i see some of the stuff she does or how she act and its totally a min me! and i LOVE IT... I miss her more then anything and love her twice as much. I wish that we all lived right next to each other so i wouldn't have to miss out on any of their lives. It sad to think

that most of her life she has lived in California and we dont get to see her as much as we would like. But its worth the wait when i finally get to see her.

Alyssa Aunt Chelby loves you more then you will ever know!! I so wish that i was there to spend your big birthday with you. I cant believe my little niece is 5, and getting ready to start kindergarten. She isn't little anymore.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GIRL!!!!!

Real Salt Lake/David Cook

Last night was such a great night. The 3 lady in the front office plus my little sister Breanna all went to the Real Salt Lake Soccer game. Im really not a big fan of soccer but really the only reason we went was to see David Cook.. haha. But surprising i like watching the soccer game. All the fans were always on their feet SCREAMING on top of the lungs. It was so much fun! Real Salt Lake won against Los Angeles Galaxy 1-0.

After the game we were all SO excited!!! They were letting people go sit on the grass for David Cook. Breanna and myself booked it down there as fast as we could, and we got GREAT seats. Lets just say that David Cook is as hot as always haha. He was only able to play 5 songs because they had to delay the game 50 min cause if the rain and the other reason was cause Utah has a Law that they cant play after 10pm.. But all the song he play was Amazing if i say so myself.

#6

Its June and once again it time for my number 6 most influential person..

*My Brother*

Mikey!

Lets just say i love my big brother with all my heart and so much more!

My brother is the definition of hard work. He is hands down the hardest worker I know. He is always looking to make things better and trying harder to make a better life for him and his family.

Mikey is Constantly looking out for his sister and his family! Mike is the one guy that i can stay up till 4- 5 in the morning and talk about EVERYTHING from baseball to the wonderful family we have. He loves his family more then life it is itself, he would give up the world just so his family is on top..

He has made a huge impact on my life and he makes me want to do more things in my life, not just for me, but for my family. He is the best example of good. He is honest, dependable, loyal, funny, caring, and just down right awesome.

I know that you are going to be the best daddy in the world to that little baby!! I'm more excited for you then you will ever know. I cant wait for that little one to be born.

Thanks so much for everything you've ever done Michael. I love you tons brother! You have definitely influenced my life for the better!!
