Life with two!

Blogging might start to slow down! keeping up with two has been so fun and busy at the same time. I thought I didn't have time with just Brecke and now I really feel like I don't have time. I can only imagine how its going to go with three of four!! Well, to catch up on life events Jack is growing like a weed and so is Brecke. I want to freeze both of them everyday. Jack already looks like a little man instead of my sweet precious new born. He is such a joy to have around. I don't think I could have gotten a sweeter, more calm baby then he is. He is always so happy. Most the time you can just find him chilling without making a peep or cooing to his toys. He is smiling so much right now. It's such a amazing feeling to always get the biggest smile out of him every time he see's me. The love and bond between a mother and child is un real. you think it might not be as amazing or as exciting as it was with the first child but it never gets old or feels any less compared to the first time. My little Jack as already stole my heart. I tease Kyle all the time that he better be on his "A" game because Jack's winning my heart over him. Then of course Kyle say's that Brecke has already won his!!! We both can't get enough of them! When I took Jack to his 2 month old appointment which was really more like his 3 month since they couldn't get us in tell then he weighed in at 12 pounds 8 ounces and 25.5 inches long. 53% for weight and 94% for length. He is one healthy boy. Jack is doing so well with everything over all. He seems like such a easier baby then Brecke was. Oh how we love our Brecke her full of life personality. Jack is now grabbing at his toys and totally loving being talked too. He will smile for an hour straight if you were to talk to him for an hour. He also has been a pretty good sleeper other then the last week or so, so I'm hoping he's just having a growth spurt or something that will pass. Before then though he was eating his last feeding at 10 pm and sleeping until about 4 or 5 am. It was pretty nice. I thought I was on my way to getting him to sleep until 7am but I guess that will have to wait.
Brecke on the other hand has been full of life lately. She has a thought and opinion on how she wants her day every minute of the day. She is very vocal...SURPRISE SURPRISE!!! She has been very fun to watch grow and become such a smart little girl. I swear she is the smartest little one year old almost two year old every! Isn't that what us moms all think of our kids! She really amazes me daily with what she understand and can do. She mimics everything and I mean everything. Some of my favorite times right now with her are talking with her at night when she wants me to tickle her back. I love listen to her have a conversation with me that makes no sense but yet make so much sense to me. I love that she wants me to lay with her in her bed and like tonight when she wants to tickle my back and love on me. She says, "hug", "kiss" over and over, oh how I can't get enough of it. The biggest thing in Brecke life right now is that she has gotten rid of the BINKY!!!!! She did so well, I can't even believe how well she did. We had Kade and the family over one night and all took her to the canal by our house and watched her throw every last one in the "WA, WA" which is water and cheered loud and proud. She was so excited that we all thought she was so cool, that she keep says all the way back home, DEE in WA, WA" dee is binky. We then gave her a fun new toy and that was the end of it. I dreaded the day for so long and it went over some much better then I ever thought it could. She did have a hard time going to sleep for a few days but it wasn't because she wanted the binky but more because she didn't know how to just relax and soothe herself without it. The very next morning when she woke up her first thing she said was, "DEE in WA, WA" I laughed and couldn't believe how smart my little Breckie is! Here are some fun new pictures of the life with two.

Brecke's BFF turned two on August 12th and we were lucky to have her over that day. Despite the fun birthday party that Brecke already went to the weekend before we still wanted to celebrate the real day! When the girls woke up from their naps we made cupcakes and I mean "WE". They both took turns pouring in the ingredients and stirring. It was so fun! I even dug out Brecke's birthday crown and Scarlett worn it all day.

Jack's Blessing

Most all the family was able to come down for Jack's blessing. It was such a pleasant and enjoyable time. There's is no explanation for the feeling of having the priesthood in our home and to know that the kids have their fathers love and blessings. Jack was perfect as always and didn't make a peep during the blessing. And of course he looked way to cute for his britches. I have some pretty fun pictures that will always be so special. This was also the first time Jack got to meet his uncle Kenny and Aunt LIsa. Thanks to our great family for traveling to us.


Brecke is so so sweet with Jack. She has been so perfect with him so far. She has loved him so much from day one. She always wants to love on him and hold him. She now is starting to play with him with her toys and singing to him. Here she is drawing for "BE,BE" which is baby with her new toy.


The traditional 24th up in ogden. Kyle's parents have wanted to start a fun tradition with the 24th for the grandkids and so far both years have been a hit!! Last year we thought that the fir work show that Kurt put on for us couldn't have been any better, but then this year might have topped it!! HE full on lined up all the fireworks that he bought in the garage in the order that he wanted to do them. Blake was again his wing man and both gave us a night full of laughs. Blake might have lost his hearing and Kurt was about to blow us all up but all in all we couldn't get enough of it. I even got a battle wound by trying to participate. Fun times. The kids had so much fun together too. We think we might be on the path of Liv and Brecke getting along. Both girls get along great with Nash and believe me when I say Brecke gets along well with Nash because I think this might be the cousin she will have a secret crush on. Brecke doesn't go one day without talking about Nash. When she wakes in the mornings I always ask her if she had a good nights rest and what she dreamed about and the first thing she say's is, "Nash, and didi" didi is Dixie.
This is also the first time Jack met his great grandparents.


For journaling sake we named Jack after all of his grandparents and father. Both grandparents names are John as well as Kyle's dad and Kyle. Well as Kyle's grandparents have gotten older they have turned John into Jack. And thats where is came from. We have some amazing four generation pictures.


I think this picture says enough!!! She always wants to clean!!!!

Life as a big sister

Brecke has grown so much since Jack has been born, I swear it speeds up time even more. Here are some of her recent life events. She now wants nothing to do with her high chair. She wants to sit on the counter where the big people sit and she acts like she is one of us. She has to hold brother every morning while watching cartoons and of course a few times throughout the day. It's also now become a ritual to ride the lawn mower with Kyle every friday when he takes care of the yard. She hurry's to get dressed and ready so she can run outside to him. And the biggest change of all.....Her new "big girl bed" This has been a adventure. For the most part she has done great other then a few days of hell when my mom was visiting and she thought she would test the limits. She loves to climb in and have us read her books. She's not to good at staying in the bed though after she has fallen asleep. She has fell out a few times and getting her to go back to sleep after that is a challenge. The first night she fell out I was up feeding Jack at his 2:00 am feeding and I heard a loud thud and sure enough I went in and she was looking around like "what just happened" I then was up with her until 5:00 am...this was a nightmare! The bed is now up against the wall with a rail on the other side to help. the funniest part is she even falls out of the end. I went in one morning and she was asleep on the floor at the end of her bed. She must have fallen out, lol!! It's been pretty fun though to see her become so smart and grown up like since the new baby. I'll have to take a day and take pictures of her taking care of her babies like I take care of Jack.... it pretty funny.
The day is finally here. Me and Tia had the babies and the fun is just to start!!!! Xavi already loves his new little bud. Every time they have been together Xaxi cuddles right up to Jack. Can't wait to see these two little studs grow up.

What everyone has all been waiting for!!!

Welcome Jack Kyle Boyer
born May 13, 2010
7 pounds 9 ounces 19 inches long



The story below is for the eyes of those who can handle hearing a blunt delivery story.

Jacks delivery story,
It was May 10, 2010 and I had my second weekly doctor visit. I had moved from being dilated from a 1 ½ to a 2 and was told that Jack was low and getting ready to go. I then cleaned a house that day which wasn’t that bad and then tried to take it easy the next day which wasn’t that easy since I had co-op and some things to get done. I then felt like little Jack was soon on his way and I had started contracting off and on but they started getting stronger so I felt like time was coming to an end. I then woke up Wednesday May 12, 2010 and decided that thing should be checked out before two of the men in my life were leaving out of town. That would be Kyle and the doctor who both need to be there. I had also lost my mucus plug and started what they call, “the bloody show” this day. So I went into the doctors to hear him say that I had only moved maybe a ½ and that I need to just be on bed rest until they both got back Saturday night. So I left the doctors thinking I most likely wont go and that I will just finish what I had going on that day and then take it easy while the men were gone. So Kyle left around 2:00 pm that day to head up north for the high school baseball state tournament. Carrie Jensen who is a great friend and my birthing coach also known as a Doula came with me cleaning to help vacuum and then came back over to my house later that day to play with Brecke while I got some much needed grocery shopping done. I stocked up and came home and got the house in order and sooner then later my two girlfriends showed up to help me get my nursery together before little Jack showed up. My girlfriends and I were up until about 11:30pm and then as they were leaving Brecke woke up very feverish and sick. Poor little Brecke sounded so bad and I just knew she had to have gotten Croop from her little friend who just got over it. I got her back to sleep about 1:00 am and hit the sack.
I was having some pretty intense dreams about contractions and going into labor and then before you knew it I was awake and feeling real contractions. I finally decided that I would call my Doula at 3:00am when an hour went by and they were still present. She had advised me to get in the tube and relax and maybe they would go away. I then took a bath for an hour and then got in the shower about 15 minutes after too. The whole time the contractions varied between 4 to 6 minutes apart and so I had a feeling this wasn’t going in the boy’s favor. My Doula then showed up at about 4:00am and started tracking my contractions. They were only getting stronger and stronger along with going through the textbook of labor. I was hungry then sick and then had to go to the bathroom allot. It then was about 5:30 am and I decided I better give Kyle heads up if he was going to have to rent a car and drive home. Well I called him for about an hour straight and he was not answering his phone. Finally he called back around 6:00am and said he would figure out how he was going to get home. It was a good thing he decided to fly home because it was only 3 hours or so before my water broke and it was hospital time. Laboring at home until the hospital wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be, in fact now that I have gone through the whole process natural I would say that was a piece of cake. I would keep busy and when a contraction would hit I would hit the floor on all fours and bear the pain while my Doula did some pressure positions on my hips that help ease the pain. It also helped every time I hit the floor for a contraction Brecke would come running over to me to make sure I was ok. She would stroke my hair or rub my arm and back. It was as we were getting ready to get all the stuff packed in the car that I was sitting at the computer desk printing my birth plan and a contraction hit. As I dropped to the floor I felt like I had tinkled in my pants. I went to the bathroom to see if this is what the called “the water breaking” and I was still a little puzzled. We then loaded up and Kyle’s friend Lee stopped by and happened to be able to take Brecke since my girlfriend that was designated to take her was on her way home from Vegas. As we headed to the hospital I tried making a call, which ended up with my phone being hung up and thrown over to Kyle. I only had to endure one contraction in the car but it was defiantly very uncomfortable. As we were walking up to the hospital doors another contraction hit and the rest of my “water broke”. As I walked through the doors it as if they all knew the pain was coming on fast. There was about three nurses there greeting us to get me taken care of. I got checked into my room and another contraction came on pretty strong in fact I think I could call this the first very painful contraction now that all my “water was broke”.
I actually was in the middle of telling my doctor that I didn’t make it and that I was going to have the on call doctor deliver the baby and then the phone was thrown to Kyle. I started crying through the middle of this contractions and started getting very scared and wondering if I was going to be able to make it through this. I then remember looking at the wall that was face to face with me since I was draping myself over the top of the couch that was in the room and said to myself, “Tiffany do not start crying or getting scared, you have prepared keep going”. From this point on I was in a very different state of mind. I was told after that there were may time that Kyle and Carrie were talking to me and could tell I was in my own world getting through this big adventure that I was headed straight in for. I then got on the bed so that they could monitor the baby’s heart rate for a while and make sure everything sounded ok. This was a task since it hurt so bad to sit in a up right position. After being checked they confirmed that my water had broken on its own and that I was dilated to a 5 and 80% effaced. The baby sound great and then it was getting in a position that I could endure this pain I was experiencing. They lowered the end of the bed so I could drape myself over the edge of the middle of the bed with the upper half in the full up right position where I pressed my head with major force every time a contraction hit. At one point I did try to move to the bathroom to sit on the toilet where I was told this position was nice. That was not the case for me. This position hurt even worse. I had to wait for about two contractions to pass before I could move back to the bed. I even hit the shower first before I made it back to the bed. I then labored the rest of the time in the bed on all fours. The nurses and doctor had to turn me around a couple of times to check me and that was the worst pain when I would have to get in a up right sitting position. I was then coming to the end when my body would automatically start pushing every time a contraction hit. It was the oddest feeling to have your body automatically push like you were trying to go to the bathroom all on its own. I believe this is when I started to get a little more vocal then I thought I would ever get. I would grab a hold of Kyle’s arm and shove my head into his chest and lean back in a squat position like something was going to come out any minute, but yet every time nothing did. I could literally feel the baby descending through the canal. I had a handful of these types of contractions and then before I knew it they told me to turn around that we were going to start pushing. So the dreaded position haunted me and when they turned me around it hit like I had never imagined and I could feel that I was really really having to push to get the baby out.
I gave one really hard push that was the worst pain I had ever felt and then I was told I needed to get in a more curled position and push harder. Another contraction came and a push came and again the pain was unreal. I pushed with all my might and was screaming like I have never done in my life. I was even screaming to have the doctor pull him out. When he didn’t come out as quickly as I thought the doctor got stern with me for a second and then nurses ran in and also started yelling at me to push. I knew I had to try something different then what I was doing, because I felt like I was giving it my all. I pushed again as hard as possible and then little baby Jack finally entered the world! They put Jack up on me as soon as he came out and I held him in my arm saying over and over again I can’t believe I did it. I just keep waiting for Jack to start crying or take his first deep breath and he never really did. Jack was very blue and limp. I kept lightly blowing on his face and when they sucked his mouth out quiet a few times and he still didn’t cry or gasp like most babies do when they come out, they grab the baby from me. The specialists then came in and started working on Jack. They explained to Kyle that his shoulders got stuck during his arrival and that it can put pressure in the head and lungs, which made him not take that first big breath. They put a tube in his mouth to fill his lungs with air and help them fill up. They then put a breathing mask on him and explained that he was doing well and that he was breathing on his own they were just helping him a little. After they got him stable breathing well on his own they then bundled him up and brought him back over to me.
I then finally got to have my skin-to-skin time with Jack and fed him for the first time. Jack attached just perfect when I fed him and we then snuggled and took a little nap before we were moved to our recovery room. Kyle was also very anxious to have his skin-to-skin time with Jack. Before we moved rooms Kyle laid on the couch with Jack and had his skin to skin time. Over all it was an incredible experience. It was the worst pain I could have ever felt towards the end but yet very cool to feel. When I think of only having two hours of horrible pain it almost seems worth it to do it again. I labored from 2:00 am to 1:00 pm and then we had our 7 pounds 9 ounces 19 inches baby boy! Kyle and Carrie were amazing getting me through this process. I was especially so amazed at Kyle and how he was so supportive and would listen to what Carrie was telling him to do. Kyle breathed the whole time with me and didn’t even pass out. I remember at one point Carrie telling him to be careful cause he was breathing so intense with me. I defiantly recommend having a Doula if not for the purpose of helping you get through the process but to be there to support your husband who in turn is most likely supporting you. What an experience I will never forget. And just to let you all know Kyle loved every minute of it and even stated that he wants me to have all the rest of our children natural WE SHALL SEE…..


I had to post at least one picture of me and my cute girlfriend, Atia. We have been dear friends for almost 7 years now and I was honored to throw her a baby shower. Atia has an amazing strength and determination about her and is proud to be a first time mother of a little baby boy that will be joining us any day. It took Atia many many years to get pregnant and I was lucky to be pregnant with her to share our little boys life's together. we are only about 2 weeks apart and this picture was taken when I was about 36 or 37 weeks and Atia is about 34/35 weeks.


Spring time at the ball park. We had so much fun this season watching Kyle's little brother play baseball here at Dixie State. GRandparents and cousins came a handful of time, which was so fun for Brecke!!!!!!

March and Aprils update

7 1/2 months, just about 1 month to go!!!!

Have I mentioned how much I love Brecke! I think I am obsessed. I seriously can't get over everything that she does. And I know its nothing new to the world and that millions of other kids out there have done the same thing, but there is something about watching your own child grow. It's the most amazing experience.
Breckes new thing the past week has been to carry not only her one purse that she has always loved, but to carry both of her purses while pushing her baby in her strolling with her blanket and binky. Yes its allot! but she manages to do it and will do it for hours. She is hilarious. She is also getting so attached to her binky and blanket that it might start becoming a problem. She always wants her "D" which is her binky and usually her blanket follows. I mean she will drag that blanket everywhere. There have been fights when I have had to take it away because she is wanting to take it outside in the rain with her or in the dirt beyond our yard. We had to drive in the car the other day without it and man did I hear it all the way home. SHES OBSESSED!!!! The sad thing is, is I was extremely obsessed with my blanket when I was younger and may still have it and didn't give up my thumb until I was in like 7th grade...WOW I know and so I get nerves but yet I know how she feels when she has it. I also think its dumb to try and do something about it now because soon baby brother will be here and then she will revert back once she sees blanket and binky for brother. Oh man what to do.
Brecke also is a master at showing you all her body parts and saying her animal sounds. Our two favorites that she says is lamb... which she just laughs for cause it sounds like that when we mimc it and the frog...she can't concur that one so she just made up her own sound that sounds nothing like it. SO funny! To me she seems so smart, but Kyle sometimes puts me in check and reminds me that she is probably just right on schedule with her ability to learn but to me shes smart. She can put so many things together and if you show her something once you can be sure she will figure it out on her own and continue to do it. She eats on her own and gets very upset when you try to feed her and she loves "big girl" cups over her sippy. But she will tell you over and over agin in the morning that she wants a "baba" which is her sippy full of milk. Her other new thing this past couple of weeks is singing the itsy bitsy spider. She loves it and will do all the signs and then clap when its over to do it again. She has also started to love to hide and throw herself around on the couch until she gets dizzy......so fun I'm telling ya. I'll update on her soon I'm sure.

HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY KYLE!!!!!

Kyle turned 30 on Friday and man does he seem old!!! hehehe just kidin. The sad thing is, is he looks like he's 21 years old again playing baseball. I swear he just keeps getting better with age, while I keep getting pregnant and fat with age! Oh well maybe in about 6 years or so the tables will turn, NOT! Anyways, we had such a fun day. I stayed up tell 12:30am the night before so I could fill the house with balloons and decor, for the big man! I then decorated his car inside and out which he did not like at all. It's that attention thing I tell ya. Even when it comes to the simplest things he does not like attention on him.
Kyle, Brecke and I drove to Vegas for the day and had such a fun relaxing day shopping and eating. Me and Brecke then made Kyle the famous family Red Cake and boy was Brecke excited to eat it. The candles didn't last but two second which was kind of funny and I was the only one singing!!!! On Sunday we had what little family we have here in St. George come over for dinner and cake again. I really wanted to make the big three 0 a big deal but of course nothing worked out that I wanted and when I finally told Kyle all of my ideas, it wasn't really anything that he thought would work out like we would have wanted. I hope it was a good day for him because I sure wanted it to be.
I can't express my love and thankfulness for Kyle enough. I should tell him everyday but of course I am at fault and don't. Instead I boss him around! At least thats what he tells me I do. I couldn't have asked for a better father and husband. I truly think he could be the worlds best dad. He is amazing with Brecke. It's a pretty regular occurrence that I think of how blessed and lucky I am to have a life with Kyle and for Brecke to have such a great father. Kyle is such an example to me when it comes to being such a hard worker and sticking to whatever his heart is desiring. I mean he wakes up at like 6am to go workout and train for the CrossFit Games then off to work he goes at like 7:30 8am. He's back home around 4pm to either do private baseball lessons or coach the Dessert Hills High School baseball team. Then often he hits up the gym again to either train or teach classes. While doing all this he comes home for minutes at a time to love on Brecke and make sure that we are doing ok. Then when his day is over at around 6:30, 7pm he gets to eat dinner... that is if Brecke lets him and then he's off to bathe Brecke, play with her, read to her and then put her down. And yes I am capable of doing all that and sometimes I do, but thats Kyles time with Brecke that he just loves.
And being 7 months pregnant I must say I probably do boss Kyle around just a little and yes he is the best for taking it!!! I love you babe for always being there for me. Happy Happy Birthday I hope it was a birthday you will remember.

My little Animal!!!!

Here are some fun pictures of Kyle competing at the CrossFit Qualifications, what a fun time it was. As you can see my husband is pretty ripped and strong!! Everything a girl dreams of RIGHT!
Watching Kyle over the last 10 months start his own gym and train himself for the CrossFit Games has been the most amazing thing to watch. Not only was I so proud of Kyle and Kade to start their own gym that they have such a passion for, but to watch Kyle compete for the CrossFit Games was another thing. It was the most inspiring event I have ever been to. I have never wanted to be more in shape in my life, or to even want to be strong. CrossFit is seriously in a category of its own.
Kyle did so well, even considering that his first day he was a little off. Kyle wasn't feeling totally himself the first day. Kyle hurt his back at the beginning of the week and tried working it out by the weekend. Kyle still managed to come in 4th on his first work out, 6th on his second, 24th on his third, and 8th place on the fourth which was the next day. After Kyle's second workout is when he really took the hardest hit. Kyle laid on the floor for about 20 minutes straight not able to get up. He of course made it look like he was totally fine, but I could tell he was not feeling up to par. Kyle then got an IV to get some fluids in him and continued throughout the day. Kyle's amazing to me, he is the most humbled athlete I have ever met. No matter how good at something he is or how well he looks he would never flaunt it or act like it. He truly is so incredible with his strength and ability to compete. Kyle came into 5th place overall with about 80 competitors. Kyle will now be going to the CrossFit Regionals in Washington on 15th of May. I won't be able to make it unfortunately since my due date is May 29th and Im pretty sure a car ride that far wouldn't be that fun and a plane ride is out of the question:( I think Kyle is going to do great. they only pick like the top 4 from a few different regions so it will defiantly be harder to make. If he makes it then he goes to the official CrossFit Games in July!!!! I hope he makes it!

Brecke just gets more fun and more fun everyday. She is so full of personality and attitude. She impress's use everyday with how smart she is. She does so well with putting puzzles together and getting lids off and on and fixing anything that comes apart. She of course is talking away and is becoming such the "Big Girl" Brecke loves to ride around on the Rhino with Kyle and bake with mommy! Fun Times


Another Valentines day with our little Brecke. She was pretty cute about her ballon and new clothes. Its so fun being able to buy little gifts for her, can't wait for the many more years to come.

These picture were also on my camera. A little update on Brecke......Brecke LOVES animals, anytime she sees any type of animal especially dogs she think she needs to go give them "Loves" immediately. Most 17 month olds would be terrified of big dogs but the bigger the better for Brecke, she also likes them really small too. There are a lot of animals around us here in the fields, so every now and then we do our little field trips to visit the animals. Breckes favorite so far have been the goats. She loved feeding them and watching them butt each others heads for her food. She also got to get up close and personal with the bunch that weren't caged up. Oh man was she in heaven. She loved the horses too but the shock fence around them made it to where we couldn't let her get as close as she wanted. Sheep are behind our house right now and every morning she has to say hi to them. And when we pass them on the way to the store she gets very mad if I don't take a stop for a moment.
Brecke is so full of life. She talks, and talks and talks, as if her talking makes sense. It will be any day that she starts putting words together. She say: Dadda, Mamma, Nana, wa wa which is water, ba ba which is bottle, bite, Dixie, NO, ya, nigh nigh which is night, uh oh, whats that, Hi, bye, and starting to become more clear with thank you. She is very vocal and tells you what she is liking and most of all not liking. She still eat pretty well and will usually never reframe from food unless you really want her to eat. She sleeps pretty well, I can't complain. She goes to bed at 7pm and gets up about 7am. She loves her dad thats for sure. Shes a pretty big mamas girl, but when I'm around she wants to cuddle with Kyle on the couch or have dad read to her. Kyle defiantly gets way more Love then me. Brecke is weighing in at about 25 pounds and is about average in height. And some of Breckes bad habits that I think are so cute is her binky and blanket. She loves her binky and is defiantly getting attached to it, and she has started dragging her blanket around with her everywhere. She makes us laugh all day long. She is becoming quiet the dancer too!!! Kyle isn't convinced that she is going to be my little dancer but shes bound too. She loves to dance! and she mimics the snapping the head movement and the tapping of the toes. Shes bound to be a dancer!! more update soon to come.

Wahoo Christmas 2009!!!!

So I finally got my camera fixed and was able to get our Christmas pictures off. Its a few posts behind but better now then never. The first collage is Christmas morning with me, Kyle, and Brecke. And then our traditional brunch with the Boyers and gift exchange. Brecke got her first bike from her grandma and grandpa this year and couldn't get enough of it. She was defiantly spoiled, like always.
We then went to my families for the afternoon of Christmas and things were a little different this year. My aunt and her family were in town going to YellowStone for their Christmas and so they spent the day with us. We were missing two of my brothers and a niece and nephew so to say the least things were a little different. Brecke was spoiled rotten by everyone though and loved her chair that she got from her Uncle Kenny, aunt LIsa and Jas. She also got many many more things from my mother of course and has worn out her puma outfit already. Over all Christmas was really good. We are excited to start having our own little family to wake up to our own tree and play with toys all day. Traveling might be a little different next year. We might start traveling after Christmas instead of having Christmas up north all the time. It will be a sad time to not be with our families that we are use to being with every year but then again its exciting that we have now formed our own family to start traditions with. We can't wait for next year!!!!!

4 months along!!!

So I know I haven't posted any pictures of me yet this time around but now that I'm starting to show I guess I better, for our journaling sake. I am exactly 22 weeks along here and doing great. I have been feeling really good other then I'm starting to want to eat a house every 10 minutes. I can feel the baby and see his little kicks every now and again. Brecke loves to show me where the baby is and lifts my shirt to kiss the baby. I can't wait for our little guy to get here and for Brecke to have a sibling. So far I think it has paid off to exercise while being pregnant, maybe this time it won't take so long to get back into shape.....hopefully that is!!! enjoy

IT'S A BOY!!!!

We were able to get an ultrasound when I was about 15 weeks along which was kind of early, but thanks to a great friend in the ward he told us he was 85% sure it was a boy. Of course we were pretty shocked and couldn't believe it. So we finally went to got another ultrasound a week ago when I was 21 weeks. Right away the ultrasound tech asked if we knew the sex and we told her about our first ultrasound and she said, "yep well it's a boy alright I already saw it". It was such a fun experience, we went to Snow Canyon Medical Center since we don't have insurance anymore and I refuse to pay the $400.00 for the normal 20 week ultrasound that the doctor requests. This ultrasound was way more fun and exciting then my experience with the HIC and it was only $67.00. It was on a big flat screen and they recorded the whole ultrasound on o DVD instead of a VHS which is so stupid that they did with Brecke and she even switched it to 3D. It is still pretty early to see the baby in 3D since he doesn't have that much fat on him but he still looked pretty cute!! He was moving all around just like Brecke did, at one point he was in a full on pike. How they can be that flexible is so amazing to me. I loved every minute of it and I can't wait to meet my little guy. I feel so attached to him and love to feel every minute of him inside me. I was afraid of not being as close to him and I was to Brecke since she was my first and its amazing how much you love them all.
So far my pregnancy has been great. My first trimester of course was not fun but the minute I hit my 2nd trimester I was back to myself. I have been the usual- tired alittle more then normal and winded but I feel it has been going great. I have been able to continue CrossFit which has been really fun. There is actually a CrossFit mom which is strictly for pregnant moms and I have been loving it. I feel I am in way better health and shape this round of pregnancy then with Brecke. Of course I'm in better health and shape....I didn't do anything with Brecke, but, eat, eat, eat!!!!
When I get my camera working again I will post a picture of my beautiful belly. hahahaha.

Brecke's days

Here are some fun pictures of Brecke in her everyday life. She loves having friends over and playing with her mom of course.
Brecke has been coming to the gym since she was 7 months old and loves every minute of it....most of the time that is. She loves to watch and mimic everyone. I guess she will be our first CrossFit baby.

i will update soon

I was just sitting here looking up a bunch of nonsense and went to look at other bloggers and decided that I am a little behind. I have meant to post Christmas picture for awhile now but haven't found the time to go get a new battery charger so that I can actually get my pictures off of the camera! We had a wonderful Christmas and hope to get the memories up soon. Besides that the last week has been a little hard around the Boyer home. Our poor little Brecke got the stomach flu on top on teething. Four molars plus the flu equals no good. I must say I felt like that was the hardest sickness so far. It was miserable o watch her little body be so lifeless. I did love the cuddling on the couch but then again felt bad that she actually wanted to just lay on me when she never wants to do that. Thankfully we are out of it now after 5 hard long day and one really hard day with both of us down. Luckily I only had it for 24 hours but that 24 hours was not fun. I cant believe how much Brecke has grown though, she really thinks she owns this world. She communicates so well with telling us "yes" and "no" now and gives much attitude with it. I cant believe how smart she is and how fun she is to be around. She has many new things but my favorite is she loves to lift my shirt and kiss the baby. I can't wait for her to have another friend besides Dixie all the time. I mean I can wait but I can't!!!!!! If one kids allot of work I can't imagine two and even more. If everyone else can do I can right!!!!!
