Catching Up

Ok, so I am really behind on my blog, just have been soo busy lately or least it seems like I've been busy!! Anyways, in Jan. my little baby turned 1 years old, how time just flies by. We had a party for Preslee just family and our good friends Gerilyn & Kyle. Preslee had fun opening her presents, she actually knew what to do, probably because christmas was just a couple of weeks before her birthday. She wasnt to sure about eating the cake, which I thought she would of loved. Preslee has grown so fast, it seems just like yesterday I was pregnant with her. She sure loves her brother and tries to do everything he does. She loves to play monster trucks in the dirt with him, yes she will be my tomboy!! They love to watch motorcycle videos together, there favorite is Nitro Circus...But she does have a mind of her own, can't tell her what to do!! And she is a daddy's girl, as soon as Mike walks through the door she is at his feet wanting him to pick her up and saying "dadda" "dadda". She is such a joy and I love spending every minute with her!!

Flex It girls were awesome. 1st, 2nd & 3rd all around..

So much has been going on lately and I wish I would of got pictures of everything we have been doing or at least find my pictures. Anyways, it seems like lately we have been going to gymnastics meets. We just went to the Summer Games in Cedar City where Mykae did very well. She got 1st on beam, 2nd on vault, 3rd on bars, 5th on floor and 2nd overall. It is so wonderful to see how much she has improved, not only her but her whole team and considering most of these girls have only been doing it for 2 1/2 years.
In March we took the kids to see the monster truck world jam finals. That is Tahj's favorite thing, he looks forward to them every year. This year we went early and went to the pits to see all the truck, Brooke & Jody met us there. Jody knows the driver of the Nitro Circus truck and took Tahj to go meet him and got pictures and autographs from him. Tahj was soo excited and he is already for the next monster jam!!

In April it was that time of year, the Clark County Fair...Oh yes my kids look forward to it every year. Maliyah sang in the childrens choir and also performed with her clogging group and the rest of the time was spent at the carnival. Also, in April the girls and I ran a 5k, which they did not train for and still did very well. Hopefully we will be able to do more 5k's together, if I can get their lazy butts to come run with me!!
In May, Mykae had her end of the year gymnastics banquet where she got the most improved trophy. She also tried out for the dance team for school for next year and made it. I just hope she wont be too overwhelmed with dance, gymnastics and school work. Then we come to June, yeah school is out!! Maliyah did very well in school this year, she got staight A's, she is our child that likes school and definitely loves to read. You will always find her reading a book if she is not playing with friends. Then there is Tahj, my kid that does not like to be home, as soon as he wakes up he wants to be playing with friends.

A few months ago Tahj and a friend were taking the training wheels off his bike, so I finish taking the other one off and help him. That lasted 5 minutes and he was off playing. The next day he tells me he's going over to Bella's house to play. About an hour later Gerilyn texts me and says they are coming back here to play, so I walk outside to see where they are and there by the stop sign, he's helping Bella with her bike. So I walk over and he tells me he can ride his bike, I'm thinking ya right. I say "Oh lets see", he hops on his bike and takes off. Wow, he just taught himself to ride his bike in about 10 minutes. He is crazy on his bike, he told me the other day he wanted to go to the skate park to ride his bike because there's ramps to do jumps. Let's just say in a month or so broken bones!!
Anyways, hopefully I will be much better at keeping this updated with more pictures...
