Our little 5 year old

I still am having a hard time knowing that my first little boy is already 5. I can't believe it, but then again I should because Chris and I celebrated our 6Th wedding anniversary is August. It's weird to think that we have 3 kids. It wasn't so long ago that it was just us and we were dating. Time really passes fast when you think about it. We can't wait for Chris to be done with school and to get our family in the next stage, but it will be so different. We are so use to how things are that I hope we will adjust to it. I look forward to it. This is just a thought that I am sharing out loud that has been going through my head since we started internships.
So I hope everyone VOTED today. We did. It will be an interesting next few days to see all the outcomes of everything!

Poor toe

I can't believe that I forgot to mention that I think I broke my pinkie toe on my right foot. Tatum woke up last Thursday morning at 3:30 am. I stumble out of bed to go into her in the other room, but on the way out I kicked the door frame. I fell to the ground about to burst into tears and Chris wakes up saying, "What is wrong?" I went in a got Tatum back to sleep and then I tried to go back to sleep, but there was no way. I got up and took some ibuprofen and got an ice pack. So I think it is broken, but don't know for sure. I don't think there is a whole lot you can do for it anyways. I've been training for a 5k that I was going to run on the 22ND of this month, but know I can barley walk on it, so I suppose I will have to wait for a latter date.

Trenton turned 5 years old today!!!

Trenton turned 5 today. I sill can't believe that we have a 5 year old...WEIRD. We are having a party for him tomorrow night since today was Sunday. We let him open the presents that Chris and I got for him and he seemed to really love them all because he came to me and to Chris saying "Thank you mom and dad for all my presents you gave to me". It's nice to hear that without having to say it to him first. I felt like all those other times have finally paid off. He really is turning out to be such a good kid and a great older brother. We sure love our guy!

So Halloween was so much fun and I think the kids had a really good night. There was a funny thing though with Tucker. He wanted to trick or treat, but he didn't want to take any candy from someone with a costume on. So he would do this..."trick or treat" and then say, "no" and then run off. Needless to say, he didn't get much candy. That was just fine because Trenton shared his candy with Tucker and Chris and I. All in all we had a fun day!!
Saturday Chris got up way early along with the hunting buddies, Russ and Jay, and our brother-in-law Jake and went hunting. This was going to be their last day because Sunday being the last day and he usually doesn't hunt then. So I'm reporting that there was no success for any of them. It was probably a good thing because it would have been expensive to process the deer anyways. There is always archery deer still and javalina in January. :)

Our Life and Family

Well, I have now officially created this blog. We'll see how good I am at keeping it updated. A little about us...Chris is a student in the Physical Therapy program at NAU. We are finally in our LAST year of school. This year is all internships, so our first one is in the beautiful town of Prescott, AZ. It's good to be home again, but we miss being in Flagstaff. Brittany, me, am home with our three beautiful kids and love it. Little time to do things for myself, but Chris helps me and I sometimes do them. Trenton our first son is 4 years old and will turn 5 in November. He is a curious kid that loved to ride his bike ( with no training wheels) as he would say and loves to just be outside catching bugs and snakes. Tucker is our 2ND son and is a mischievous little 2 year old. Other than getting into everything, he leaves no rock un-turned and anything that has to do with water not splashed in. He is our very energetic kid that we can barley keep up with. Though we couldn't live without him. Then there is our beautiful baby girl, Tatum. Word can't describe how greateful we are that she came to us. She was born March 2, 2008 and is growing like a weed. She turned 6 months old today, the 2ND of September. Her smile is one to light up your face when your day isn't going well. She has been the only one to get Tucker to smile after he wakes up. Her brothers are sure glad to have her also.
Well that is our family in a few sentences. Hope all is good with everyone we know and love!!!!
