One scared Mommy and Daddy

So have you ever had one of those moments that you are just SCARED? Well tonight Rayle decided to give us one. We were watching American Idol and I was online. Rayle and Teagan were on our bed and Rayle was jumping around. Well he jumped smack into our SOLID OAK foot board. Brian picked him up, this kid has crashed into many things MANY times. But Rayle's head went back and his eyes rolled back into his head. It was seriously only a second but that did not matter. So I called 911 and we had the fire department and ambulance out. My grandmas poor neighbors all thought is was for her. The Fire Fighters checked Rayle out and said that he must have got his block rocked. They told us to watch him since we all felt he did not need a trip to the ER. So Rayle will be sleeping with Mommy and Daddy tonight. The thing is he gets back up on the bed to do some more jumping. I can't keep that monkey off the bed! For those that know Rayle, HE HAS A SOLID HEAD!! I guess it will take more than a Oak bed to keep him down.

The year of the prego's

So in our new ward it is funny because there are NO NEW NURSERY children coming in. I think that is crazy and almost unheard of. But I look around and I see many little baby bumps and ever so soon I will have one too. We are excited to have another baby in August. (not so excited about going through the AZ summer being pregnant) Some know that we lost a baby in October and I became pregnant again in November. Quick I know! I just hope that all will work out and we can happily go from a family of four to five. I was a little scared about having another baby since I have heard that it is really hard to go from two children to three. You know the parents are out numbered then. However we waited and Teagan will be 5 and Rayle will be 3. I should have some big helpers there for me. Brian is really hoping for a GIRL, but like always we will find out when we have the baby. So here we go another baby on the way!

Give him 2 more years and he'll go PRO...

On Thursday night we made our way up north to Greer for some snowboarding fun at Sunrise. A few years ago while at Snowbowl I had seen a little girl seriously about two years old on a board and her dad pulling her along. Since then I have begged to take Teagan snowboarding but Brian wanted to wait until he got older. Well four was the magic age and we took him up the mountain. His board and boots are so little, he was one of the youngest there on a snowboard. When we had gone sledding Teagan had shown NO FEAR, so we hoped he would do well snowboarding.

HE DID GREAT!!!!

He listened to our directions and was able to sit down when he got going to fast. Also he was able to get up off the snow from a sitting position and that is one of the HARDEST things to do when snowboarding. He did better than most on the bunny hills including the adults. We are so proud of him and plan on going to Snowbowl later this week with Uncle Chad, Aunt Jen, and Aunt Candy. We know he will continue to improve and get better. One day he may even get better than his teachers, old mom and dad!

Getting ready to go and trying on his board. Making sure he could move the board around.
So cute! He did not carry it too long it was hard for him to walk.
He went up the lift a few times but this is how Teagan got up the hill. Both of us are sore from carrying him.
Teagan and Brian on the ski lift. He wanted to go fast and do jumps!
Daddy working with our soon to be PRO!
Time for a BREAK!
Looken Good going fast down the mountain.

Yep he fell asleep out on the bottom of the hill on the snow. He boarded ALL day and did so well. He never complained or cried and we know he did so well and will

do even better the next time.
GREAT JOB TEAGAN!!!!
