Bulldogs.



Emma and Regan aren't big dog fans. Regan was victim of a dog bite that Emma witnessed and neither of them has been the same since. But they DO like the QC Bulldogs!! After watching aunt Kassady on the pom team last year they were SO happy to be a part of the clinic & performance during the halftime show a few weeks ago! It was a fun Friday night, although TERRIBLY hot!! (And it just happened to be on the same night as the ONLY Friday night byu game! It wasn't a question that he'd be there for his kids, but I thought it was pretty great.)

Lyla @ 4 Months


Red dress. Red blanket. Red...HAIR!!! That's right, Lyla's hair is red! And we have pretty much decided that all of our kids will look totally different! I love this picture because it's her 'anxious face'...when she wants what your holding or is excited to see you she'll stretch her neck out, raise her eyebrows and flap her skinny arms! It's hilarious and Emma and Regan go hysterical whenever she does it.

Lyla loved her first time eating cereal- she hates it now...choking and gagging every time. Feeding her the first time I was reminded just how messy it gets- glad I had a plastic bib!
Speaking of that, anyone know where I can find some girly/cute plastic bibs?
Dear Brooke,
Lyla loves her chair!!
Thanks.

Condolences...

That's what kept Brady's phone buzzing on Saturday night after a very disappointing byu loss. Again, I stopped to wonder if people realize that he's not actually ON the team. And then I thought it was funny-sad that people knew he'd be so down to send their well-wishes.
* So, thanks to all those who care more than I do*

Shortly after it started Lyla fell asleep and E & R were getting along great! So I decided to escape the announcers voices and wander around Ross...which isn't very exciting or clean, but it's close to home and I won't spend like I would at Target! Although if I shopped like he watches football my house would be STUFFED.
I returned an hour later to a fussy baby, bored kids, and a semi-messy family room...he hands Lyla to me and says, "this is craziness...I don't know what they need" (he's never like that mind you, he always knows how to handle things)
I say, "What's the problem?"
He replies, "They won't calm down!"
I take one look at the score and (besides smile, knowingly) realize that he's too mad at the game to think of anything else!
I took the girls upstairs to hang out/await the end.
We had to turn up the tv to drown out the cries of a fan in desperation!!
***
At least he sat down for this game...the first game he stood the entire time!!
Lyla played on a blanket on the floor and just stared up at him half the time, probably wondering what was SO exciting!
***
No texts this weekend please...he'll miss the "best game of the season" (apparently) to spend the weekend away!! From the kiddos &&& espn!

*fyi- he DOES read these posts...& he laughs.*

blah, blah, blah...

...college football has started...
Brady has officially checked into his other world.
Oh, he'll visit here...Sunday-Wednesday.
But did you know there are even games on Thursdays?
There are.
And even if there wasn't...espn will always have the latest.
And he's not just a crazy college football fan...
He's a byu fan (no, I did not mean to capitalize it..."Y" give it anymore recognition in our family?)
And we all know what that means!
***
I think I'll come here to complain, vent, & make fun of how crazy he gets.
And yeah, he'll read every post...
Then maybe he'll remember some of his 'episodes' that he has while caught up in 'gameland'...
because it's like he blacks out!
He snaps out of it pretty quick, but if his team happens to lose...
(because I think he believes he's actually on the team)
well then our week is just about shot!
***
So come on byu, for the sake of my husband...please just win.
And espn, for the sake of my sanity...find some announcers whose voices I can stand to listen to!
