Tayven

Where to start.. Tayven thrives on the chase, he is outgoing and usually can be found in things he should not be in. As crazy as this little guy is I actually love that he keeps us on our toes and mostly that he and Brax are so different. The other night we were up the canyon after a couple rain storms and Tayven found what he likes to call Chocate Water...It was so fun to watch him charge through the mud puddles with a grin on his face. It was all i could do to get him to the next puddle so we could keep moving..It was not until we were about ready to go that Brax decided maybe it looked a little fun. Brax asked if he could try it and he proceeded to tiptoe in with caution. (I loved it!) this small experience showed a tee both of their personalities. Tay a little more adventurous and Brax cautious and putting thought into each adventure.

Tayven's talking is so fun and makes me remember how fun his age is. Although love you mommy is probably my favorite, he can  not help but pick up the naughty words like stupid mommy...(this morning when I was singing to him.) He also is 100% if not more boy.. Shooting bears, Motorcycles and dirt are among many of the boy things that he loves!! He is really easy going and good at sharing. I am happy this wild yet sweet boy is a part of our family. We love and enjoy him very much.

Braxton

It is crazy to think that I have a three and half year old. Especially because at times I feel like I have a teenager already! Braxton is so funny he likes being big, he is really smart and kind of sassy. Honestly I would say Brax is most like me..including some of my weaknesses, which can make him hard to reason with. He also keeps us laughing with some of the stuff that he comes up with. Some of the most recent things that I can think of are: One night we were at dinner and Brax needed to go potty. Ryan took him in the bathroom and held him up to his first urinal. Brax thought that this was pretty cool and said "Wow Dad, look at me go!" Ryan was not sure what to say but we had a good laugh about it later. Brax is a big movie guy. I love that I get to finally see movies like Star Wars and Transformers. He has such a big imagination and even in our night prayers we can not forget to mention we are thankful for the universe, aliens and bats?? Sometimes I wish I knew what went on in his little mind.

Braxton is about to embark on one of his biggest adventures yet: Preschool! It is funny how so many mixed emotions can go into it. I hope that he learns alot and that he enjoys learning. Mom is feeling stressed, excited and also a little like keeping him here in our home with me :) I am so proud of my handsome, smart little boy.

The Summerset's Maiden Voyage

 So we bought us our first campin' trailer! I could not be more excited.. It has been hard tenting our camping trips or flat our not going with the boys. We took it on our first adventure to Arizonia. It was a lot of fun and as you can see the boys are in heaven! Dirt, Food and more Dirt! Looking forward to many more summers in the mountains.

Solo Cup

The boys are growing so fast and it seems like the more they grow the less I document those fun spontaneous memories. Life goes on and we of course get busy but here is a little bit of this and that:one of our favorite hats that we get at the expo every year

I believe this is Braxtons Monster face..haha

Drum roll...LADY A!!!!!!

I love life being the lady in my boys' life. I really feel so blessed the boys are so much fun and all of them keep me on my toes.

Braxtons funny things: still saying the darnedest things as he has since he was tiny. The other day we were in the restaurant and he just belted out Red Solo cup for all to hear..then we made a trip to Arizona and took uncle Jaxon, well Brax turns to him and says Jaxon..Lets have a party. haha (not the best song to love but he loves to sing it.) He is getting better at sharing and really can be a really good brother. His latest thing is telling people random made up things like..I don't love him and so on...Here we go.

Tayven: Still my go getter. He is all over and enjoying life. Honestly this is horrible but he is hard to get made at. Always so happy and the things he does naughty you can not help but grin back at him sometimes. He also is a persistent little thing; if I am doing the dishes or cooking and he needs my attention he will step on my toes until he has it..

writing this makes me realize how much I need to keep blogging and sharing the things we are up to because other wise I will forget! These are the days and I do not want to forget!

The Boys and Me-

It is time to play catch up... so this is a little about what we have been doing:I do not post a lot on Ryan and I just wanted to say a little about this past year. Ryan help over four people have a successful hunt this past year some even from out of state. I really think that is something and I am so proud of him. I love his devotion to the outdoors and how he is willing to do anything for people.
Tayven, Tayven this little guy is my busy one..he keeps us going! the most recent with Tay is our dedication to get him talking ;) He is so smart and knows how to talk and understands alot..but the little stinker will not talk, he has got to the point that he can point and we do. humm why would he talk when he does not have to?? I will catch him saying something and the second that he realises I heard he stops. I love this little guy and how different he is from Braxton. It is so fun to have him in our home and we are forever blessed from his sweet spirit!

This is the boys and their camping chairs that they absolutely LOVE!

Our time with dad!!! Lately the boys have been so into monster truck videos/RC videos that Ryan brings up from YouTube. They love it!! so funny that they are total boys!

This big boy is three!!! We celebrated Braxton's birthday the week before Christmas and he sure enjoyed all the cool cars, trains and toys he got. I can not believe how fast the years go by and that I have a baby that is THREE!!! I have been so proud of him moving into sunbeams and being so big about it. I was really worried about this transition as young as he is but he has done great!! I told him that now that he is three he can be happy and so far I think he has grown a lot!! I love the things he picks up and how smart he is!!! Love you Brax with all my heart!!

Christmas message

I  love this!

This just makes me laugh! Everytime I see it!

This kid kills me! He is so smart and is always saying things to keep us laughing! He is a little busy when it comes to mom wanting a picture but it was easy to capture the top picture...he has been infatuated with all the toy ads and has even gone as far as to sleep with one. haha. He is already planning what he wants for his Birthday and what he wants to ask Santa for. We love you Brax and are so grateful for the smiles you bring to our family!
