Pumpkin Carving

So Much 2 Cach Up On!

Wow where to start, My life has been Crazy...... First I would like to start out saying we r having Baby #2!!!! We are way excited and Shayd seems to be also!!!! I am Due June 11 2010 and I am Nine weeks!!!! I cant even believe we are going to have another baby! Also I am almost done with Nail School I will finish in Dec and I will start working in a Shop in Castle Dale until the Shop in my house gets done. School has flew by so fast and I have learned so much. We had a really good Halloween we had our best friends come down from Salt Lake and they brought there son so Shayd and him could Trick or Treat together. Shayd was a Lobster and her costume was AWESOME! She ROCKED IT. Halloween was the day we told the whole family we were having a baby. I made some cards for everyone and a little treat bag from Shayd. I dressed her up really cute and took pictures of her and had big sister in the background. I also made a little poem that went with it and that is how we told everyone!!!!! All the family freaked they could not believe it, and they couldn't believe how good i kept it a secret!!!! After all i have known since the end of September and i am not a good secret keeper lol!!!! Shayd is getting so smart she know almost all her ABC'S now and most of her colors. She can talk so well and comes up with the funnies things. She can sing a lot of songs to its way cute. Everything is going really good we are really happy!!!! That's all I think i need to update you on!!!!!

Grammy's LOVE

Shayd and Grammy... It is so sweet how much Shayd loves her Grammy.
I remember before i had Shayd my mom and i wondered what Shayd would call her... I wasn't really into the whole "nanna" thing i just didn't think my mom looked like one!!! I didn't really want her to call Cords mom and my mom the same thing. So it just so happened that she calls her "Grammy"
I am so glad i had Shayd when i did her and mom have the sweetest bond. I am glad my mom is young enough to play and do things with her. My mom takes her on Fridays and they play outside in the pool all day. Shayd loves her Grammy so much!!!

Pappy's Harley Davison

Shayd is so funny she loves Motorcycles. She fits right in at the Ricchetti House haha. My mom and dad r big Biker people they crack me up!!! Every time Shayd heres one come down the road she yells "BIKE" "BIKE"!!! She has an obsession with them and it worries me haha!!!

Remember When

"Summer Lovin"

Wow..... Its been a long time since i have blogged haha.... I have so much to tell. It's been the best summer ever!! We have had a blast!!! We have been living it up in the back yard having bbq's and swimming in the Castle Dale Pool!!!! That place is awesome... Shayd has loved playing outside she has been a wild Indian.... And has she got quite the TAN!!!!!!! I love the summer.... and i think Shayd will be just like me... We have been going on fun walks to the park and picnics on the grass. I cant believe today is the last day of July!!!! I am so sad.. Anyways Cord and I doing great. We r just getting ready to plan Shayd's birthday party.. I can not believe she is going to be 2!!!! Everyone keeps asking when we r having another one. I think we will try soon!!!! I am starting nail School in August and i am worried that i am going to be sick so i wanted to hold of for a min at least! And "Yes" Nail school!!! I am so excited its a 4 month class 4 days a week from 4-8. I am so worried about leaving Shayd I am just so sick about it. I have never had to leave her so i hope it will be ok. I guess it is only 4 hours a night!!!! It might be good for us she might get sick of me haha. But everything is good she is getting so big and learning so much every day. She is such a smart girl, I just cant believe time flies so fast!!

Fathers Day

We went to Cords dads for fathers day it was a lot of fun. We never really do a lot for David we always just stop by and give him a present visit and go home. So we decided to have a BBQ over at his house. All of us were there and it was nice because we all don't do that. David pulled out "Flash" the horse and all the grand kids rode him. It was Shayds first time on a horse and she had a BLAST!!! SHE THOUGHT IT WAS THE COOLEST THING!!! I think it meant so much to Cord to have his dad so involved. He took Shayd on a horse ride and then he took all the kids on the John Deer Tractor. I think they liked that better than the horse haha. I wish I could of got pictures of all the kids on the Tractor but lil Ari was sleeping!! It was a really good fathers day and Cord just loves being a dad!!! I cant believe its already his second fathers day. We have so many more to come and i hope they are all as good as this year!!!!!

Look how cute this picture is I think this was her favorite part for sure. She loved looking at the animals through the glass and we couldn't keep her from tapping on it. She would hit the glass and yell at the top of her lungs just to get there attention. It was totally against Zoo Rules but it was really cute!!!!

THE ZOO

We took Shayd to the zoo for the first time and she loved it. We had so much fun! Cords mom and step dad went and so did Amber and James and the boys. It was so sad because Cord and I was so excited to take her and she wanted nothing to do with us!!! She wanted her grandma Lanna and grandma Lanna ONLY!!!! It was so sad for Cord he wanted to hold her and walk her around and she wanted no part of it!!! She was so funny though we would try to take a family picture with her and she would cry every time.. She wouldn't let us hold her!!!! She had so much fun though she loves animals so it was right up her alley!!!
