Happy Turkey Day

I know, Thanksgiving was a few weeks...and I am finally getting around to post our Thanksgiving picture. One might ask, "What did you do for Thanksgiving, with a 2 week old baby?". We certainly didn't travel anywhere, and I wasn't about to make a huge turkey dinner for our little family...well, not little, but made up of picky kids. Sooo...we headed over to Chuck-A-Rama. And, I'll have you know, there was a line out the door. So, we weren't the only ones that had the same idea. It was nice to not have to cook or clean....and the kids loved it! Tate still talks about the all-you-can eat ice cream!

1 Month Old...Already?!?



WOW! Where does time go? I can't believe Bronson is now one month old! He is such a sweet baby. It is so fun to have him in our family.

Baby Bronson Eric

Rhett and the kids had fun drawing a beautiful portrait of our baby boy on my big belly. It's a good thing our baby came out cuter.
The hospital called at 5:45 in the morning, letting me know that a room was available to be induced. I was soo excited to finally meet our new little addition...and to be done being pregnant! Here I am, ready to head out the door...

Little Baby Bronson Eric was born at 10:40 a.m. weighing in at 8 pounds exactly 20 inches long. He was my smallest baby.

Bronson had a little rough start getting here...once he figured out how to take that first breath, he was a beautiful, healthy baby.
Don't ask me why I am posting this picture...I mean, I look so glamourous in that beautiful blue robe, but I figured, this is what we looked like for 2 days in the hospital.
Tate was the first one to meet this sweet baby. He was so excited to hold him.

Hailey and Hunter ran home from the bus stop and made a mad dash right to their new baby brother. The kids were unable to come to the hospital because of the swine flu, and everything else that is going around. Hailey is such a big help.
Hunter just loves his baby brother. I didn't get a good picture of Bridger holding Bronson because Bridger wanted to hold the camera instead.

This little guy is going to be one loved, held, and spoiled baby. We are all doing great. Good thing Nana is here to help!

Happy Halloween!

This year, the kids all wanted to be Scooby-Doo characters for Halloween. So, Tate was Shaggy, Bridger was Scooby (he didn't want to wear the cute Scooby headband), Hailey was Daphne, and Hunter was Fred.
Rhett even dressed up as Shaggy! So, we had the Twinners. Originally, Rhett was supposed to be the Villain, but there were no masks allowed at the Halloween party, so he got to be Shaggy. I was supposed to be Velma, but I couldn't quite pull together a 9 month pregnant Velma costume....so I went as a pregnant mom of 5.

Fall Fun

We took the kids on the "Halloween Cruise" down the Provo River. You ride on a 25 passenger pontoon that is pulled along a rope down the river. There are lots of carved pumpkins that light the way. A pirate attacked our boat and passed out candy. And we were told a story about the Headless Horseman. It was the cute and kids had fun.
Bridger met a new friend there. He was just his size.
We were all loaded on the boat and the kids thought it was so cool to ride on a boat in October....with pumpkins lit everywhere.

Happy 4th Birthday Tate!

Look who turned 4?!? Yep, Tate! He is our big 4 year old. I can't believe how fast time flies. He wanted a motorcycle cake..so here's my attempt!
Tate was very proud of his cake. He helped me every step of the way!

We went to Pirate Island for a birthday party that night! It was a lot of fun.


Tate had his Robison cousins, his friend Kade/Severe Family, aunt Kristen and uncle Andrew, and his family there to celebrate with him. It was lots of fun!

Soccer Fun



Hunter and Tate played soccer this fall....and loved it! Tate would ask for his trophy at the end of every game. It was so hard for him to wait until the end of the season...but definitely worth it! They both would keep track of how many goals they would score....they're not competitive. It was fun to watch them play and improve on their soccer skills.
