This morning while Trey ate his oatmeal, I quickly left a voice mail on Justin's work number reminding him of his sister Christina's birthday. When I got off the phone, Trey said, "Who's that?" I said, "Dad. I was reminding him of Christina's Birthday." This was Trey's response, "No, Trey's Birthday." I asked him, "How old are you turning Trey," and he said, "22!" Where he came up with that is beyond ME!

Alphabet lessons at WINCO?
11.17.08
This blog is mainly for my own benefit, I want to jot down every little thing Trey-Man accomplishes before I forget them with my every day chaos! So, please forgive me during this bragging session, my feeling will NEVER be hurt if you just cruise on by these posts!
We were shopping in the Fresh Produce section of WINCO and Trey said, "I see 2 'E's." I said, "WHAT?" He said, "SEE," as he points to the FRESH PRODUCE sign in HUGE red letters above the lettuce and organic veggies! Then he proceeded to point to all of the other letters. He found 2 R's, an S, an O and a C! I was amazed.
Please don't credit me, I swear it is the Leap Frog Letter Factory series that Miss Michelle introduced to us a LONG time ago and some serious brain washing! Repetition is mandatory at this age for any learning to occur, and we are the KING and QUEENS for repetition!
What a blessing it is to have a little one what is eager to learn. What a blessing!

Sorry Sydney so Late!

Terrible friend I am, it has taken me THIS long to get Miss Sydney Moore her Christmas gift. I promise, it has been in our home, wrapped and all since the beginning of December, but as our schedules would have it, I never made it to their home in time!
I think Trey overwhelmed Sydney and Angie, bless Sydney's heart! Trey really, and I mean REALLY enjoyed all of her toys, and she was so sweet to let him go crazy!
I really cherish the friendship we have with the Moore's and am so excited for their new addition which will be arriving in June! Syd will be an amazing big sister!
Thanks guys for letting us drop on by!

During Trey's nap, Sommers and Shaydon came over so I could show her how I sew burp cloths! I love these afternoons with the two "S's," we had a wonderful time chatting, eating, and lovin' on Mr. Shaydon! Thanks for spending the afternoon with me!

Trey's new 'do
1.16.08
I am a bit embarrassed at how long I have gone without getting Trey's hair cut. My ideal haircut for him would be BabyGap meets Trey Bledsoe. But, I have come to the conclusion that I need to even out his hair and let it grow in thick before I try any fancy stuff on this little guy.
So, it was off to Annabelle's for a new 'do, and what an amazing job she does. She too sees the vision I have for Trey's hair and is really helping me achieve my goal.
After his haircut, Annabelle presented him with his most favorite possession at the moment right now: A Sparring helmet and sparring gloves! Her whole family is into Sparring (including her, she is a blue belt, and her husband!!! She amazes me!) and her youngest son has grown out of his gear. So, he handed it down to Trey, who is now in heaven!
Thanks Annabelle for making Trey's YEAR! He LOVES his "mask," aka: the sparring helmet!

Trey had a Choice!
1.15.08
Trey's choice was to eat breakfast, or take a bath! Of course, it was to take a bath, he hates to eat, he is picky, and quite frankly, eating takes up too much of his time! Today we were off to Miss Michelle's house, and I am grateful he wanted a bath. He needed one, and I never want to have THAT kid that smells, is dirty, or is the talk of daycare! So, after his bath, I wrapped him up in his favorite bathrobe, and started getting his clothes ready for the day. He wasn't about to take off his bathrobe, and after fighting to put his clothes on, he wanted to put his bathrobe OVER his clothes.
Look at that major 'tude and stinky-eye!!!
Then, in a blink of an eye, I swear, he turned into our dog Cooper. After we give Cooper a bath, he does what we call the "crazy run." He runs around the house as if trying to dry off. THAT is what Trey did. He ran from room to room, trying to either dry off or make me dizzy!
One might think I had all the time in the world, searching for my crazy child from room to room- I do NOT! That crazy boy never stops!
A co-worker the other day asked if Trey is "just as mellow as he used to be." I looked at her and laughed (I now hope she didn't take offense to me laughing in her face!) I said, "I think he saved all of his energy up his first 18 months of life and is now using it as if he is going to go empty!"
Needless to say, we lost the bathrobe and Trey went to Miss Michelle's home!

Tiger Eyes!
1.14.08
Minutes before my friend Jessica was to arrive at our home to help me with my blog, Trey decided to go into disguise as a Tiger!
I thought he was washing his hands, but he never ceases to surprise me!
He had gotten into my eye liner and eye shadow and dressed himself up as a tiger!
Can you tell he had just been caught?
I quickly grabbed some wipes and scrubbed his face like mad, in fear Jessica might see his face and wonder, "What the heck do YOU guys do for family night?!"
Luckily, I don't think she even noticed, I don't remember her mentioning anything! Whew!

Sunday Nite, Game Nite
1.13.08
Justin's family is VERY into games and I think Justin misses having game nights. B.T. (before Trey!) we entertained quite a bit, but haven't much in the last 3 years. SO, we decided to have some friends over for a game night!
First, we invited Chelsea and Shane Stevens! Chelsea and I went to high school together, and it is amazing how similar our husbands are!
We then invited Ryan, Adrienne and Caleb Peterson over. Justin and Ryan work together on projects here and there at work, and we actually attended an Engineering conference with them last May. Adrienne, Me and the Boys (our sons!) spent an afternoon cruising around Jackson Hole and an evening in the parking lot of a restaurant the engineering group was eating at! (definitely NOT a kid friendly place by any means, and to top it off, it was RIGHT on the busy main street of Jackson Hole. I thought either Trey was going to die that evening due to running out in traffic, or I would die due to a heart attack or stroke. It was that evening that I told Justin I was NOT up for having a second child for a very long time! And dining with a two year old was OUT of the question for quite a few months!)
(poor Ryan, he does NOT look pleased at my camera-happy style! Sorry Ryan!)
Cute Caleb! Check out those eyes?!
And lastly, Justin's friend and co-worker Vic. Sorry, but the picture of Vic had a very strange picture of Justin in it. Imaging Justin, very intently, describing a card game, and you have a strange and concentrated game face. I thought he would be very unhappy with me if I posted that picture!
We played Apples to Apples and then BANG! The two boys enjoyed themselves, playing cars, guitars, and watched High School Musical 2! I later caught a picture of Trey and Caleb playing "Rockstar Band," including a picture of a shirtless Trey. I guess he had gotten hot!
We broke out the chocolate fondue fountain once again and snacked on sweets! Trey really enjoyed the peanut M&M's, but that shouldn't surprise anyone. Who DOESN'T like them?!

A late Delivery from Santa
1.12.08
We have been wanting a play structure for our backyard for years, and finally we found a great deal on Craig's List we couldn't refuse. Thanks to our friend's Mike Cook, Lanson Baumgartner, and Justin's brother James, the play structure was taken apart and transported into our backyard!
Trey tried the best he could to help Justin put it back together, but we eventually went inside and watched Justin work hard from our warm home.
As you can see, it was very cold outside! Justin finished putting it back together, just in time for sunset.
