Opps....she did it again!

Okay, yea, so,well, I don't even know where to start. My BIGGEST concern to moving to Mtn. Green was the roads. Erin is the love of my life, however.... SHE IS A HORRIBLE DRIVER!!! On her way home from the gym she hit a bad patch of ice and spun the car into a tree. Everyone is okay. Erin has a sore back and sore arms. Kyan and Jett were both buckled in their car seats and were only screaming because their mom was crying.

The bad part is, this is the tree that leads to the house, yea, that's right, 12 seconds from home. I guess the tree will never talk back again. Stupid tree


KYAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Kyan + non supervision for 30 seconds = Ky-guy thought that food coloring would be a great way to explore his artistic possibilities!
The green came off but the Red, however, will be a constant reminder that Kyan is a devil child and can not be trusted unless you can see him. (not HEAR him)
Erin says we still need to write that we love him.... and of course she is right! Kids are one BIG adventure.

Carmel apples

Erin made these for her visiting teaching families and was SO excited about it. She was so cute. I am sure she was one of those girls who almost killed her dad cooking brownies in a easy bake oven with a light bulb. She did save one for her boys to eat and I'll tell you what.... they were GOOD!

Christmas Lights

We decided to take the boys out to 25th st in Ogden to see the light display for Family Home Evening. Here are Erin and the Boys.

Of course we had to take a picture to support the Fire House display!

Braeden and Kyan had a blast being 'trapped' in the christmas box.



J.B. and his D'hara girl.




Can you say "over kill" on the wardrobe. It was like 40 degrees outside.




J.B. and Braeden and Kyan checking out the kids favorite display, the Log Cabin.









We all had a blast! It was fun. Of course the Kids didn't want to come home, which in turn makes us the bad parents. It was okay, we told them we would come home and drink hot chocolate and watch the Jazz game.... they were all about that. ( I told Erin she could watch Kyle Korver Play.)

Poor Baby!!!

My poor baby. J.B. was chasing Jett down the hall and he tripped over some blankets I had left on the floor and crashed right into the corner of the wall. We didn't take him to the Dr. so we had his Uncle Austi & J.B. fix it with dermabond. It looks way better than this. I felt so bad :(
All bandaged up and happy.

Ahhh




I was in the office doing some work when I heard Jett talking to his mom. Well Erin had Just come home from work and was sleeping. So I turned around to see who he was talking to. He was sitting by this wedding picture of Erin and running his hand up and down her face saying "Hi Mama" and some other Jettanise that I couldn't translate. Jett LOVES his mama!!

A day in the Superlarsfam Home!!

Okay I love being a Mom and I love being a Wife and everything that goes with those the good and the bad, so if you all were wondering here is a day in the Larsen Home. It actually starts the night before. Its 9:30 pm and its time for me to go to work( for those that don't know I'm a CNA at an assisted living home the graveyard shift) so I kiss J.B. goodnight and give him a lil scratch on his back ( I normally do this every night when we go to bed it puts him to sleep) and go check on the kids (i am anal about this. I must check on them) and off I go. 8 hrs later (I usually get home about 6: 15 am ) I crawl into bed for some blissful sleeee Agh the alarm goes off at 7:15 and I finally get up about 7:40. Kyan is usually up with the TV on and wanting food. I go get Braeden up and put him in the shower, get Jett out of bed and then have a "pleasant" discussion with Kyan on whether hes going to eat oatmeal or cereal. So i get him and Jett their food and then I need to take our puppy D'Hara out to go potty. 5 min later we are back in warmin' our tails. By this time I remember Braeden has been in the shower forever so we go in and lather him up and tell him to wash, rinse and GET OUT!!!:) By this time J.B. is up and is getting ready for work. I then feed D'Hara cuz shes hungry too. but that's a battle sometimes to becuz the kids food is better. I then get Braeden's clothes for school and tell him again to get out of the shower. J.B. has to go so he gives us our hugs and kisses and off he goes. We love our Daddy and are so grateful he works hard for us. Braeden is finally ready and sits down to eat. I then proceed to get the other two dressed which goes like this "Kyan put your clothes on, Jett come here, No Kyan your pants are on backwards, Jett come here. Kyan do you want to go back to bed, PUT your clothes on!! Jett (who I'm now chasing) come here!!". Finally we are dressed Braeden is ready for school and we are off to walk B to the bus. (its only 8:20am) We say bye to B and walk back home. Kyan usually wants to race but I'm holding Jett because he has no shoes on so that doesn't happen. Now the next couple hours vary on the day. I finally remember I'm hungry so I eat and then its time for the dog to go out again. So out we go and back in we come. By this point Kyan is usually whining hes hungry again but he just ate so he has to wait. I decide I need to clean so I pick up my book and read, only for an half hour. A hour and a half later, during with I tell Kyan a billion times to leave the dog and Jett alone. I feed the kids a snack and put Jett down for nap #1. Okay time to clean after I watch The Biggest Loser (we dvr it) Instead I fall asleep. Kyan puts on his movie and finds all the food he can get in the 45 min I'm asleep. He has gotten a hold of cupcakes, pizza, yogurt, chips, crackers, fruit, bread you name it. I love that kid he makes me want to rip my hair out and give him a big hug at the same time.. I wish I could tell you I then play with him for hours on end but if I'm going to be honest I don't. He gets out his dinosaurs or we read a book or if I'm feeling really ambitious we go for a walk ( after Jett is awake) So Jett is up and we (well not me cuz I forget about me) eat lunch and then run to the store. That in its self is a story. 2 hrs later we are finally home. I put the groceries away and now its time to clean. So I do the dishes, pick up the living room, break up a fight over a toy, give the boys hugs and kisses, tell them i love them, vacuum, maybe put in a load of laundry, and then pick up my book and read just a lil' bit more. Braeden comes home from school and the boys usually go outside and play. They play well so its quite enjoyable. Also during that time I have feed D'Hara and taken her out at least twice. You know havin' a puppy is like havin' a new baby all over again!!! But we love her. J.B. is home soon so he gives us all hugs and kisses and we chit chat or he relaxes on the couch. Time for dinner. In our house you eat what Mom made (it wasn't always like that but it sure is easier) So we all eat well most of us do any way. Whoever doesn't eat does not get a treat. After dinner we all just relax unless we have soccer practice, or J.B. has fire training or we go to the temple, or anything else that comes up. 7:30 bath time for the lil boys and after scriptures, prayer and a song its bedtime. Brush teeth and snuggles and J.B. and I spend some time together. Life is super fun. and we love being together. I wont say I'm the best Mom or the greatest Wife and definitely not the greatest housekeeper, (i am a pretty fair cook though:)but I love my family and I would do anything for them. We love each other and the gospel that makes our life so much better. My boys(that includes J.B.) are my life and i am so blessed to be surrounded by so much love. Life is not easy but it sure is fun and I look forward to many more crazie days.

So my camera finally went kapoop:( I love taking pictures of my boys and now i cant. J.B. has already started looking at cameras so we just need to to go out and pick one. I miss my camera. Oh well we had that one for about 4 yrs, so it will now R.I.P Life has been fun. Breaden is always lookig out for me. Just today he saw a commercial for wrinkle cream and he said I need to buy some becuz i have wrinkles. Isnt that sweet! i know hes looking out for his mom but man that makes me feel old. Ah the honesty of children. They make me laugh. We just toured the new elemenatry school in Mtn. Green. It is beautiful.. its big and clean and has lots of new stuff for the kids. Breaden got to see his teacher ( not the first time mind you becuz J.B. went to school with her and shes been over for dinner) but her classroom looks awesome. Im excited for all day school and sad at the same time. Excited cuz B loves to learn and taking 2 kids to the store is easier than 3 but sad cuz I have a kid in 1st grade. It has flown by. b is such a super kid!! I love him tonz. We are going to take him school shopping next week and he is excited!!! Kyan is my busy body and water bug. He will swim for hours which we try to do on a daily basis. He loves to snuggle and wants to do everything B does. He makes me laugh. We love him much!!! Jett is everywhere, he is beautiful and fun. He does not like to share him Mom with anyone, esp his dad. he even bit my toe cuz i was snuggling with J.B. He is a blast. We love him much too. i dont know what id do with out my 4 boys. yes i said 4 and no im not prego, I just count J.B. as one. I love J.B. so much. he makes me laugh and spoils me. He came home the other days with a bag full of english treats, he even bought me an english candy bar but since it had so many calories and fat grams he sacrificed himself and ate it for me. See he always looks out me. He is a riot.

Happy 6th Birthday Braeden

Okay so my oldest is now 6. It is crazie to think I have a 6 year old. Braeden has always been a wonderful kid. He was a brilliant baby an easy toddler and just an all around great kid. We have been blessed to have him in our family. This is a picture of him at 4 months I believe. Here he is now!!! 6 years old. April 7 2008
Here is a lil' about Braeden.
We like to call him B or his Dad calls him Iverson (a version of his middle name). He is in Kindergarten and loves every miniute of it, his favorite part is the bus ride. His favorite color is Green. He loves to eat Peanut Butter sandwiches (no jelly). He loves to watch Duck Tales and playing outside is an all time favorite. He has been in to fire trucks latley (no suprise there since he wants to do everything his Dad does). He helps me out a ton and is a great big brother.

We had a family night to celebrate his birthday. Here is him and Kyan

He wanted a fire truck cake so this is the best I could do.


A couple of days later he had a big birthday party at the Fire Station. Here is everyone who came.
This is just the kids and the fire fighters. The guys not in the blue class A uniforms is Chad and Craig. They borrowed some clothes to dress up and help us out. J.B. is the first one on the left. He looks GOOD!!!




Here is Braeden running to get Chad his clothes for a relay race
Chad and Craig racing to see who will win





The kids cheering them on.
It was funny to watch the whole process




Captain Doyle (left) and J.B. (right) Talk to the kids about fire safety and what to do if you hear the smoke alarm.
PRESENTS!!!!!

We also had a fire truck pinata. This is Braeden taking a swing.
Here are his friends who came to the party. Needless to say it was very noisy, but very fun
