Shocking I know

I was afraid I'd forgotten how to do this:) I just don't know how you moms keep up with all the updates; where do ya find the time? Anyway, I guess I will hurry and give everyone a quick run down with whats been happening in our lives for the past few months.

The kids are growing fast like they always do. Tara is now potty trained and is doing really well..only 2 accidents that I can think of! She is even wearing big girl pants to bed. I really never thought it would be as easy as it was. I guess timing is everything. Some of her favorite things are toons especially Mickey and Minnie along with all the girlie favorites..Princesses!! She loves being the BIG sister and helping whenever she can. Right now it is helping to feed Ty and amazingly enough she is quite good at it.


(don't mind her hair she had just found the spray bottle right before)

Ty just turned 6 months and is growing faster than I can keep up. The most recent clothes I bought for him were 12-18 months..yeah he is HUGE. We just went to his well check he weighs 19lbs 12oz. At Tara's 1yr appt she weighed 21lbs 4oz, that kind of gives ya an idea how big he really is. Ty has just learned how to sit up on his own, he kind of skipped right over the rolling over phase. With only a few rolls here and there he had me a little worried but the Doc says that is completely normal. His most favorite thing to do is chewing on anything he can put in his mouth. He is our little drool bug! For now we are enjoying his many smiles, laughs, and slobber.


Tara and Ty at 6 months
I think it is amazing how similar Tara and Ty look. There are certain face expressions that Ty will make and it is as if I am looking at Tara. It takes me back and makes me SMILE!

As for Garth and I we just got back from California, well about 3 weeks ago, with a couple of friends. We had FUN spending time with each other. It was a great get away for the two of us although it wasn't much of a relaxing vacation. We had a condo near the beach in Oceanside which meant there was a lot of driving involved; going back and forth to San Diego. The highlight of the trip for me was Disneyland!! I'm a true believer that Disneyland is someplace that everyone should get to visit; it truly is one of the greatest places on earth. The entire time I was thinking "I can't wait to bring Tara here she is going to LOVE every moment of this" I was lucky enough to be able to go to Disneyland on my Birthday..my last Birthday in my twenties..there was no better way to spend it than a place I could act like a kid!


Garth and I on the fishing Boat. I caught the 2 biggest FISHES on 1 cast!!

The 4 of us were chosen to open up the tower of Terror at California Adventures. We walked down the road holding the rope with the crowd following behind us. Us 4 were the first ones on the ride that morning.
