*.*I'm A Big Boy Now!*.*

This picture makes me laugh because he always gets both legs in one .

On the 14th of September I finally decided that it was time to potty train Ethan cause he I think has been ready for a while, "I" Just wasn't. So we are well on our way!! He has been doing SO well. Better then I thought that he would. We have had honestly maybe 5 accidents the entire time, and every morning he has been dry! I was kinda nervous to take him to church but he of course did awesome! I'm so proud of him and cant believe how fast my little Ethan is growing up. He is such a blessing in our lives and I thank the Lord each day for his sweet/wild spirit :)

*.*Some fun Videos*.*

These are some of the fun videos that i had the one on the bottom was of some of Layne's Friends we went with to the cabin in Bear Lake, they had a lot of fun and the off beat is Ethan. :)

*.* leaving Idaho*.*

I did these post backwards but oh well its all the same.



Last picture with Grandma and Grandpa Bowen Before we left, WE had such a great time with them even though it was NON STOP the whole time we were there. They are so much fun and so great with the kids. We love you guys!
Grandpa Beddes Taking Ethan for one more drive in the beast before we left, he was letting Ethan Drive and so Ethan thought that was really cool! It was really hard to leave and of course when I was saying good bye I just cried my eyes out I miss my family and love them so much! Thanks for the great time up there.


My handsome little brother Tyler his beautiful Girl friend Makell, Ethan LOVES makell he had to always be around her. It was hard to leaved knowing this was the last time I would see him for a really long time.

Finally on our way to Utah to catch our flight back to Houston!

*.*Sand Dunes*.*

This was Layne's First time going to the sand Dunes and we had a great time, Makell got to ride in the front on Tylers lap so that was probably kinda scary . After a while with all our weight we ran outta gas ha ha poor Ryan felt really bad but it was totally fine, we waited while Ryan and Tyler ran the hills of sand from choke cherry back to where we parked it was kinda of funny to watch how in shape Tyler was compared to the rest of us, he was running those hills like nothing I almost died on the other hand. Finally Val and Mel brought the Four wheeler so Ryan could bring some more gas to take us home. :) Im just glad that Ryan had some time to take us out.

My amazing handsome Father and my wonderful beautiful mother.

C ooper is a feisty little guy but so sweet after he gets to know you and Lilly is one of the sweetest dogs.

Ethan had a nice goose egg right in between his eyes ha ha he went for a ride with Uncle Ryan and Grandpa Beddes and found the dry farms to be very bouncy and the dash board doesn't leave nice marks.

Hanging out with Grandpa, Ethan had his first ride and loved spending time with Grandpa



Great Grandma Biorn with Ethan and Riley.

I love this picture cause Ethan fell fast a sleep with Grandpa


Ethan walked out in the hay feild and of course didnt have any shoes on so he found out how painful that was... he didnt do that again. He kept yelling MOM HELP ME!

Lilly and Ethan had some bonding time ha ha he wouldn't leave the poor dogs alone, he just chased them around but I think in a way they liked it.
