As of late...

So we've had a busy month! Tyler and one of his good friends are starting a Power-wash company to wash Semi's, Oil-Rigs, etc... So, Him and a friend made the trek down to Utah to get some things that they needed, you know, like a truck, trailer, power-washer... the usual. He ended up having to go down two weekends in a row which was a bummer, but the second time he was down there the night cute Jessi got engaged! Wahoo! She gets married in August, and we are SO SO excited for her! Her fiancee, Stefan, is such a good good guy, and I'm so excited for her wedding! 
Tyler ended up having to be gone on Mothers Day, he was sweet and still left me some flowers and 'cash' for my upcoming trip to Denver the next week! 
It's a good thing my kids are cute!
my cute friend Anna had us over for dinner... she moved 2 days later. She's a saint!
The girls had a blast playing outside!
It was only 2 days, but it was a Loooonnngggg weekend. Mainly Mothers Day- haha. The girls were SOO naughty at church, etc.. etc... Let's just say I'm glad Tyler doesn't travel every weekend! He really is the best dad, and helps me SO so so so much. These girls seriously idolize him!
The next night we went out to say a final farewell to cute Anna! I'm still so sad she is gone! And she's such a dork always making silly faces!
I found out I am running the St. George marathon again, and training has commenced! It feels so so good to run again! Now if only it wouldn't rain every other day! Freak!
I had Jaymie's girls one day and had to get Lucy from pre-school so I had Jaymies car to fit everyone... and of course picked up one of Lucy's friends too. This is my future: 5 girls. Haha...
Lucy switched gymnastics times for the last month and we were so excited when we showed up and there was a Mom/Me class at the same time! Clara LOVES it, but definitely has a mind of her own. She could play on the bars all day, loves walking/crawling/tip-toeing on the beams, rolling, swinging on the rope, etc... I really think she'll be a little gymnast. Half the time she isn't doing what the rest of the class is doing, but whatev. She's a happy camper! Lucy is still loving it too, I just wish we could find a good teacher!? It's rough!
Like I said... Daddy's girls...
Girls playing the other day:
Lucy, "I love you Clara."
Clara, "I luh you too, Cecy!"

10 seconds later... pulling hair. Tears. 
another 30 seconds later.... dancing together princess songs
etc... etc..
I went to Denver for a weekend with my good friends Jaymie & Jenny-- pics to come, but tyler had the girls all weekend. Here they are before church. Poor Clara's hair... She is rockin that mullet goooood!
He is a good man.
So naturally after we get back from shopping, Jenny and I show up at the gym wearing the exact. same. outfit. Maybe we spend too much time together.....
Sooo glad SYTYCD is starting again! Lucy is obsessed too!
The girls and I went to Jaymie's to decorate her car for the last day of school- coolest mom ever! She is a riot. But Eleanor is just the cutest, and she's wearing one of Clara's outfits... ahhhh... I need another baby.
I took this picture just last weekend running, and 3 days later... they tore it down. I'm super depressed, this was my favorite barn... Lame, lame, lame.
I also attempted to paint my nails for the first time in like 4 years, and it was the hardest. thing. EVER! I think I swore 17 times, fixed spots like 12 times, and did like 7 coats. And it looks awful... never again... But... how cute are Tyler and the girls on a Saturday morning...
And a few more of these cuties... I sure love them!

    Yes, I think I pretty much like everything about you. You are so fun, such a good mom, and amazing friend! I'm glad you were able to go on a fun girl's trip...what an awesome Dad to get those girls looking cute for church too!
    I wouldn't doubt that Clara is going to be a gymnast because you were an amazing one.
    Congrats on the St. George marathon again! You'll be incredible...as usual!
    I too am sad about that barn, even though I never saw it!

I still can't believe my little Clara-bear-a is old enough to be in Kindergarten! She has absolutely loved it. These two are pretty adorable walking to school every morning together! Another great soccer season! Tyler was roped into coaching Clara's team again and wins at the best dad and coach ever! He even took Rex with him to a bunch of games and coached while Rexy was strapped to him in the baby carrier! Dad of the year! (I was at piano lessons with Lucy!) Baby Rex kept getting bigger and bigger! Dad would put Rex in his only football outfit every Saturday to watch the Utes play! Haha. Teaching him young! Rex turned 10 months old in September! Lucy's biggest fan! Lucy has bee doing SO great at soccer! Soccer camp from this summer really helped the girls a ton! She was so aggressive and even scored a few goals! Goooo Lucy! Color week for Kindergarten! Purple, Green, Blue, Yellow, Red, and Pink! While the mom's wash tables El...

it's me! I'm back. I have missed writing, so here I am. writing. so very much has happened since I first began this blog back in 2008! ah! almost 10 years ago. Time has seriously flown. I feel like I am a completely different person, and yet still exactly the same. Maybe just a little more perspective? That's a good thing right!? our family is still living the dream up here in North Dakota. We thought we were maybe coming up here for a year, and five and a half years later..... here we are! our kids have truly grown up here. Lucy is eight. Yes, eight! She has gotten to tall and gangly. She is wild and free, full of light, and joyful. Clara is six. She is full of FIRE, spice, and quite a bit of sass. She is fiercely loyal, tender, and a snuggler. Rex is a year and a half of craziness. He is so sweet, all over the place, and such a cute kid. He has his mama wrapped around his little chubby sticky finger! Tyler is the most incredible father, the world's best husband, and k...

Lucy is finally here!!

Lucy Jane Crosland February 25, 2009 1:23am 6 lbs 12 oz 18 inches long We would like to welcome our sweet little girl Lucy to the world! It was an eventful entrance she made and we're glad she is finally here and perfect! My water finally broke Tuesday afternoon so we went into the hospital about four and they decided to start me on pitocin since other than my water breaking not too much was going on-- after being on pitocin for about a 1/2 hr I was ready for my epidural! ((again- Im not quite sure how people do this naturally- I only had 30 minutes of real contractions and was ready for all the needles in the world!) The epidural was wonderful- I highly recommend it!! Well-- at midnight I had pretty much stalled out at being dialated at a 4.5--so the doctor came in and said that basically if I hadn't dialated in the next little while much it was most likely that they were going to do a C-section-- so for the next hour me, Ty and my mom just prayed that I was dialating, and I ...
