Disneyland

Sunday, February 20th we drove over to Anaheim, CA where we met Grandma and Grandpa Christensen, Jeff, Cheralyn, Elvis, Eugene, Callie, Hayden, Isabella and Cheralyns' Parents so we could all go to Disneyland and California Adventure together for 3 days! It was a blast! The last time I was there I was about 5 and Brian said he went when he was about 10(?). Reagan had a blast seeing all the characters and also spending lots of time with her cousins!

Reagan's favorite rides were probably the carousels and Dumbo. Brian's favorite rides were Tower of Terror and California Screamin(I went of California Screamin with him and will never do it again!). My favorite rides were Soaring Over California and It's a Small World :)

I'd say about everyday we spent half the day at Disneyland and then walked over to California Adventure for the rest of the day. We had some nice weather, might have even got a little color on our faces :)

This trip will be done in 2 post because there are way too many pictures for just 1.

Stats

Our Tank

4 Month Stats:
Weight: 21 lbs 2 oz
Length: 27 in
Head: 18 1/4 in

He is off the charts for everything except his head, which is in the 98th percentile. We sure enjoy his chunkyness just sure hope he slows down :) Or he better start walking early so we don't break out backs..

They love bath time together....except Reagan is always yelling STOP and holding down Bryson's legs so he wont splash her :)

yup we got some rolls.....all over!

my valentines :)

4 months

Where has the time gone?! I can't belive Bryson is 4 months old! We will have his stats later this week but I just know he's going to be WAY off the charts! When I weighed him around 3 months he was 20 lbs. And you can tell by his rolls he likes to eat :)

Here's just a few pictures of what we've been up to lately...

we love playing at the park!

Watching them KU Jayhawks :)

always caught in the swing

"weee"

this is how Bryson uses the jumper :)

Paw Paws Visit

My dad decided he needed to come visit us for about 4 days. It was great to have him around! The last time we saw him, Reagan was 5 months old, she's now 2!! While he was here we just kind of hung around the house and played around, watched Kaitlyn play basketball and of course shopping!

I thought for sure Reagan would be scared of him (he has a beard). But she took right to him as soon as we picked him up from the airport! Bryson and Reagan both loved having him here to read books to them and watch TV with them.
Thanks for coming Paw Paw! See you in May!

story time :)

3 months!

Our little big boy is 3 months old! Where oh where has the time gone?!

the tank

Bryson had started sleeping from about 10pm to about 7am when he was like 1.5 months old but now he's starting to sleep like a newborn and wake up about every 3 hours! What has happened?! But both kids are usually in bed by 9:30 so there's a little bit of quiet/sleep time before its feeding time again.

He has really started smiling at everything! He loves Reagan and always smiles and laughs at her. He as also started to reach for things he sees. And his little laugh is just the cutest!!



check out that double chin :)

Temple Lights and Zoo

So we actually did the temple lights before Christmas but I just never got to putting them on here. But I did get them on before 2010 was over!
Brian, Reagan Bryson and I went to the Temple lights for a family activity. It's wonderful to go walk around the Temple grounds and take pictures at the temple. We really enjoyed the lights and Reagan enjoyed all of the nativities they had set up. Can't wait to go next year!

Mesa Temple

3 wisemen

our favorite nativity. it's so large!

haha we couldnt get her to smile at the camera!


love this!


our sweet Tank enjoying the lights :)


We took a trip to the Phoenix Zoo with my mom and Kaitlyn. It was a lovely day, not too hot and not too cold. We purchased the "Wild" tickets so we were able to pet sting-rays, ride the "endangered species" carousel and ride the Safari Train. We were able to see most of the animals before Bryson was hungry or the Zoo closed. Kaitlyn and Reagan were able to ride a Camal! How cool is that?? I thought Reagan would be scared but she loved it!

CHRISTMAS!!

We had a wonderful Christmas! Brian was able to come down for 2 weeks over Christmas break and we absolutely loved it! Reagan is terrified of Santa so when we said he was coming to our house at night time she didn't like that all! But she thought it was funny that we were leaving cookies, milk and turtles out for Santa. Reagan came to our room about 8, which was sleeping in for her, and was totally excited for all that she could see! We opened presents at our house then headed to GG's for breakfast and then to my moms for more presents!

excited to find all the candy!
