Picture time!

My friend Wendy took pictures of the kids a couple weeks ago and they turned out amazing! She is so talented because it is not easy to get 2 hyper little kids to hold still but they both smile non stop so that part was easy. :)
Enjoy!

She loved posing for the camera!




Such a smily, big blue eyed boy!


He was not at all amused with being in this suitcase so we were lucky to get a smile! The things we put our kids through for a photo op...




So grown up!



I am so glad that i got these pictures done because i cannot believe how fast time flies and how grown up they already are!

Birthday, preschool and a new baby! Oh my!

Sorry that it has taken me so so long to blog again! I feel like my days just get away from me. Life is pretty crazy with 2 kids. So this blog may be a little long but I wanna catch everyone up on our crazy lives!

Part #1:

Easton is doing really well and growing like a weed still! We took him to the doctor on Wednesday and he is 17 lbs 2 oz and 27 inches long! He is in the 90% too! He is our little tank and we love him for it! He rolls all around and is starting to army crawl so I guess it's time to baby proof the house again. Let the madness begin! LOL! We started him on baby food and he is such a good eater! He definitely likes fruit better than veggies.


First time trying peas. Not such a fan.


Silly sister put a pull up on her head and a diaper on Easton's. It is so funny the things that kids find entertaining!


Easton's first time in a swing! He absolutely loves it, as you can tell!

Kaydence turned 3 last month! Can you believe it? I know I can't! She is so much fun and is the light of our lives! She amazes me with the things that she learns everyday and is so funny to watch her learn and figure things out.
Here are some pics from her birthday parties! (Yes, she had 2 parties again. Spoiled! LOL!)


She was asking us for skates for weeks before her birthday! Don't ask me why she insisted on taking off her pants to put her knee pads on.


Playing stick the crown on Princess Ariel


Tearing through the presents. Her reaction to each one was priceless.


Hannah Montana shirt. YAY!


All tuckered out from the fun. Papa had to tease him of course.


Our little tom girl. Playing baseball in her new fairy costume. Ha ha

My version of the princess cake that Kaydence wanted. I'll admit I'm no cake decorator but she loved it.

Looking stylin buddy




Part #2:

Kaydence started preschool on Tuesday and she absolutely loves it! It's still hard to believe that our little girl is going to school! Man time flies. She gets to go with a bunch of friends from the ward and has made lots of new friends already. She goes for a few hours a week and does really well. I knew that she would because she always does so well in Nursery. I'm proud to say that I didn't cry. :) It's been nice having a little free time to get stuff done. Her teacher seems awesome and has taught for many years so she is great with the kids. I can't wait for Kaydence to share with us all the stuff she will learn.


My little girl all ready for school


We let her pick out a backpack and of course she went with the princess one. It's almost as big as her!

Part #3:

My older brother David and his wife Carina had their first baby yesterday!
Aria Timothy
September 10, 2010
Born at 6:24 a.m
6 lbs 1 oz and 20 in. long

She is the cutest little thing! My family has a lot bigger babies so it was different to see this little peanut! Everything went really well and pretty fast. Mommy and baby are doing fantastic and get to come home tomorrow. Carina is going to be the best mom and David loves being a daddy already! I can't wait to see her grow up and play with my kiddos!



The happy new mommy Carina

Busy busy July!

July was such a busy month for our family! I cannot believe that it is almost over! Here's a recap of what we've been up too...

On the 4th we went to my parents and had a bbq with my whole family and my best friend Erin and her hubby Paul. They're considered family, there for everything! :) Fireworks were so much fun. I was shocked that Kaydence loved the sparklers cuz she's usually a scaredy cat when it comes to things like that. Uncle David brought glow sticks so of course the kids LOVED them too!

My baby sister Cassie got married on the 16th and I had so so much to do for that! Including making flower girls dresses, bridesmaid dresses, making the sign in book and styling 6 girls hair! Needless to say, I will not be looking at my sewing machine again for a very long time! LOL! The wedding was so fun! Her hubby Harrison is Hispanic so they had all kinds of different traditions to do for the reception. There was a dance by the whole bridal party, a money exchange and lasso thing. It was really fun to see such different things and make fools of ourselves dancing. :) Kaydence was a flower girl and did a great job throwing her flowers, once they persuaded her to walk down the aisle. LOL! All in all, it was a very fun day! Sorry, no pics. I forgot my camera. :( I'll have to get some from my parents and post them.

On the 24th we got together with some of Rob's family and went swimming and played volleyball. It was a lot of fun! Rob and I got pretty sunburned but it happens when you have kids and are mainly worried about them getting burned. Later, everyone came to our house and did some fireworks. I think that I like them better than anyone. Kaydence just wanted sparklers again. :)

Here are some pics from our busy month! Enjoy!


Papa and his grandbabies!


Getting so big! Don't mind the yucky eye. He had a clogged tear duct but the Dr gave us some drops for it and it cleared up in a week! Yay! So much better.


Easton loves his bumbo!


Enjoying Fireworks


Uncle Jake and Paul being destructive with bottle rockets!


Cute girls! Aunt Cassie with Kaydence and Cousin Ellie



I was so surprised that Kaydence loved the sparklers and wasn't afraid of them!

We got to bless Easton last month and it was such a fun day! We had everyone in both of our families at church and everyone in the ward kept thanking us for taking up almost the whole chapel! Ha ha.
Rob gave Easton such an amazing blessing and all of our brothers and brothers-in-law stood in the circle. It was so nice to take a step back and look at how lucky I really am to have such an amazing family! I am so so grateful that Rob can do that for our children! It is a day that I will never forget! I'm such a nerd but I take notes after the blessing and write it down in their baby books so that they can know the things that were said for them. :)
Afterward we had a huge luncheon at my parents with tons of food and it was so nice just to hang out with everyone.


Daddy and his little man (sorry i don't know how to flip the picture)


Our new little family of 4! Kaydence was not happy to take time out of playing to take pictures. Our little drama queen! :)


Easton and his papa. We always joke that my dad and Easton are kindred souls! Ha ha. My dad can calm him right down and Easton has the same huge dimple on his right cheek as my dad does.

Our crazy life!

Everyone knows that we had our cute little Easton in April but I've had so many people get after me because I don't put pics on here very often so I figured I'd better do it.
I'll start from the beginning... :)


Just arrived at the hospital. Ready to get this show on the road. It's so weird to look back on this picture and know that he was crammed in my belly!

Easton made his big debut at 6:39 p.m on April 10th. Exactly 12 hours after I got there.
He weighed 8 lbs 8 oz and was 20 inches long.



Exercising his new little lungs! He sure did let us know he was here! Ha ha.



My first time holding my little guy! Man I was swollen and exhausted!


First time meeting his big sister! Kaydence kept saying it was her turn to hold her new baby brother!



Kaydence kept playing doctor and listening to Easton's heartbeat. Yup, guess she thinks it's in his head. Ha ha. He's such a sport to let her pick on him. :)



Daddy's little angels!

The transition to home life with 2 kids was a lot easier than I thought it was going to be. You really do know what to expect with your 2nd kid. The only challenge was feeling like I gave them both enough attention. Kaydence loves her baby brother and is so helpful getting diapers or anything that she can for me. She is such a happy little girl and has adjusted really well. Now it's just onward and upward to our crazy life.


Kaydence in a bouncy castle at her friend Sofie's birthday party. She was rolling with laughter the whole time!



Kaydence loves to lay down and copy Easton kicking his legs and trying to roll over. He's not quite sure what to think of her laughing so loud. :) 4 weeks old


Easton's favorite little swingin spot



First outing to church! 7 weeks old


My adorable twosome!

I finally feel like I have gotten to hang of things. The last few weeks have been really great. Easton sleeps 7-8 hours at night and still eats like a champ. He already weighs over 14 lbs!!!! Kaydence wasn't that big til she was 9 months old. Ha ha. He already wears 6 month clothes. It is so much fun to have a big chunky baby! :) He loves to just lay on a blanket and watch Kaydence sing and dance for him! He smiles all the time and makes cooing noises all day long. He is so ticklish, it's adorable to watch him squirm and smile. I cannot tell you how much I enjoy having him in our family!
Kaydence is getting so big! I cannot believe how grown up she is. I think that we've finally got potty training down!! Halelujah!!!! It's like it just clicked one day and she decided it was really gross to go in her diaper. I knew that one day it would happen for her! :) What a relief! She loves to play games and pretend that she is making you food or being a doctor. She makes me laugh all day long. She had a rough couple weeks awhile ago but luckily it didn't last too long. :)
Robs work is going pretty well and he's actually really enjoying it. What a relief huh. :) He plays softball on a recreation league and really likes it. It's fun to take the kids out and watch him every week too. Kaydence cheers for her daddy the whole time.
I am really really grateful that I get to stay home with my kids. It just feels so right for us and right where I need to be. I definitely agree with everyone that says that being a mom is the hardest job you'll ever love! I miss working at the salon and seeing friends but I've got quite a few people coming to my house to get their hair done so it makes up for it. :)
Well, sorry this post is so long but it's fun to let everyone know what's up with the Pecks. Basically we're just loving life and really happy! :)
