Sweet Memories!

We just finished putting Ty to bed tonight and I just thought I would share a moment that warmed my heart. We have been saying bedtime prayers with Tyson, teaching him to sit still, close his eyes and fold his hands. At first it was just a funny thing to him, time to crawl on Mommy and Daddy and play, but recently he has been sitting still, being quiet and watching us as we pray. Well we ended our prayer with "Amen" and quickly after a small voice says "Amen", well more like "mennn" :) It was so special to me to see Tyson following our example! I am so proud of him! I love my sweet baby he truly means everything to me...

Happy Halloween!



Halloween was fun! Ty was finally old enough to go trick or treating and realize that he was actually getting candy!!! Tyson had to work on Halloween this year so the day before we took him trick or treating around to our family! Then Halloween day my mom and I took him around the neighborhood. He got the hang of the whole "trick or treat" part pretty quick, but most of the time when the people opened the door he would try to walk right in :) He loved seeing all of the other kids walking around in their costumes!

Tyson loves to sing and do the motions to "itsy bitsy spider" so this year he was our littler spider! Here are some pictures of our Halloween!





His cute eyeball hat my mom made for him!




Checking out all his candy before bed!

hummmmm....

So I went into get my hair cut real quick the other night, kind of a spur of the moment thing. I wanted it about medium lenght, longer than my chin so I was able to still put it in a ponytail. I had it like that before and really liked it! Well the lady must have heard somthig compleatly different because its a lot shorter and I can only put part of it in a pretty pathetic looking ponytail! And for those of you who know me I am usually just a ponytail kinda girl! So we'll see how this goes! I havent had my hair this short since 10th grade! But I think I can get used to it! It will be somthing different and hopefully easy to style! So I guess you could say that Its growing on me :)

Baby Bump!

Im showing now so I figured that it was about time to but some pictures of the baby bump on here! I am almost 15 weeks pregnant and finally in my 2nd trimester so Im starting to finally feel better and get some of the energy that Ive been lacking back!! Our little peanut is about the size of an orange, around 4 inches long and weights around 2.5 ounces! The heart is now pumping about 25 quarts of blood per day!!Our little peanut is able to suck its thumb and make facial expressions such as frowning, smiling and squinting!!.... So what do you all think that we are having??!! Little Girl or Little Boy? It would be fun to hear your opinion!??

My First Ultrasound!

Today I finally had my 1st Dr. Appt!!! We were able to go right into ultrasound to see our sweet baby! I was so happy! I am measuring right around 13 and a half weeks! So my due date should be April 18th! Our Lil Ones heartrate was 164! And everything looked great at this point! From what I could tell this one was a lot more calm and slow moving then Our LIL Tiger was! He was constantly moving in his ultrasounds :) Our Appt to find out if we will be having a lil boy or lil girl will be on December 1st! We cant wait! Oh and I am seeing a new Doctor at St. Lukes this time around, his name is Dr. Hodges, I really really like him so far!! Here is a picture of our sweet lil angel!

I've been TAGGED!



The Rules:
*Link to the person who tagged you: My friend Danielle tagged me :)
*Post the rules on your blog:
*Write six random things about yourself.
*Tag six people and let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
*Let your tagger know when your entry is up. (Don't forget to come back and tell me you completed this tag!)


Ok so i know that each and everyone of you woke up this morning and thought to yourselves " What 6 Random facts can i learn about the Walkers today!!" :) So for all of you out there, Here Ya Go!

Oh and because this is "Our Family Blog" we will split up the facts between us :)

ME

1.) I am probably the biggest fan of honey mustard you'll ever find! Seriously I love the stuff! My all time favorite Honey mustard can be found at Red Robins!!! It actually has Poppyseeds in it and is to die for!!! :)

2.) Unlike most of you, I have NO gallbladder! And can i say that I am just so happy about that!! I got it removed in March and that darn thing caused me severe "mystery" pain for 6 months, until I absolutly couldnt take it anymore and went in to the ER and after calming me down with 4 shots of MORPHINE and 2 shots of DILAUDID which is a way higher drug that morphine (1mg Dilaudid =10mg morphine) to find out that it was my gallbladder! I had it removed just in time, or it would have caused me many more serious problems!! yay for modern medicine!

3.) I would say I am a very aggressive driver :) I really am working on this :) I always drive 5 over the speed limit and when people are going exactly the speed limit or under I get very upset! :) and usually try to pass them. Oh and I hate hate driving in Boise, it has gotten a lil better but I still drive so tense because I usually feel like I have no idea where Im going! So I guess if you see me in Boise Im usually the one driving under the speed limit, making the other "aggressive drivers" mad!! hehe

TYSON

4.) I think Tyson has seen 90 percent of the movies made and he remembers lines in the movies SO well!!! Like we will be driving and he will say a line and be like what movie what movie!? and i have no idea! or we will be talking and somthing will remind him of a line in a movie and again usually i will have no idea!! I think it is a fun little fact about my hubby ;)

5.) Tyson is an awsome dad! He is such a kid at heart that when he plays with Ty it is just the funnest thing ever! They both have such a great time playing I love to watch them interact!He also knows how to discipline well and helps me out so much with daily things dealing with Ty. Our son loves his daddy so much!

LIL TY

6.) Our son has a shoe fetish! Seriously He loves shoes (especially daddys!) he loves to put different shoes on and try and walk around the house :) And is constantly bringing me his different shoes and we are always taking them on and off!
He must have gotten this trait from his mommy!

****ok so I tag:
MOM (Connie)
KARA Walker
MELISSA
KEISHA

Reasons I love fall!



I love all the seasons, but my two favorite seasons would have to be spring and fall! There is just somthing special about how summer turns to Autumn... Here are just some of the things I like about fall...I love the cool crispness in the air when you take a deep breath in, I love all of the cinnamon, pumkin, and apple spice sented candles. All of the deep colors of fall and the beauty of the leaves changing!! Pumkin patches and football games!! The beginning of the holidays...Especially Thanksgiving and pumkin pie! Watching the leaves fall and remembering how we used to pile them up and jump in them again and again as kids!! Warm Apple cider and Hot Coco!
And my favorite... Tyson's work load slowing down and having time to cozy up to a warm fireplace!

Why do you like fall?

Bachelorette Party!

One of my good friends Amber is getting married on October 10th! We have been friends since we were about 11 years old, and she has always been such a good example for me as a friend! I am so excited for her and this new part of her life she is about to start! Although i am extreamly sad that she will be moving to Washington for the next couple of years where her husband (who is in the army) will be stationed!!
This past weekend a bunch of us girls got together to celebrate her bachelorette party in boise! It was a lot of fun! We went out to eat at P.F Changs (so good :) then went and did a little shopping, and went back to her hotel suite where we enjoyed food, games, swimming and mini pedicures! It was definitly a fun night!
I love you Ambi! I know you will make such a beautiful Bride!! Congrats!










One of the games we played we had teams and had to make a wedding dress and a bridesmaid dress out of toilet paper! And our team Won!


CONGRATS AMBER AND RYAN!

Time Out...


Earlier this month Tyson and I along with 2 of his siblings and their spouses went to a program called Time Out For Couples! Neither of us were quite sure what to expect but it ended up being quite a memorable night!

The hosts of the event were Brad & Debi Wilcox who were so funny! He really had a gift of humor and I think we laughed the hardest we have in a long time!

There were 2 speakers first we heard from Doug Brinley who spoke about "Living a Covenant Marriage." He had great insights on marriage and really made you 'think'

Second speaker was Kim Nelson who was hillarious and really seemed to hit everything right on! This was my favorite presentation!

There was also a great musician Peter Breinholt. This man is incredible and I really loved his music! Everything he sang about was so sincere! Im sure i will be getting some of his Cds!

The night was great and I really learned alot about marriage and the common problems we all face! It was uplifling, entertaining and spiritual! I am so grateful for my marriage and my loving Husband!!










The next day Me, my Mother in law Connie, and My Sister in Law Kara Were able to go to Time out for Women! For those of you who dont know what it is it's a day long seminar type thing specifically for women. There are several speakers and singers who talk about living more virtuous, living to our fullest potential, and growing closer to the Savior! There were many speakers who I loved so I couldnt pick a favorite! There were also singers there including Jenny Frogley who has an amazing voice and powerful lyrics! I am so happy i was able to experience this! I loved going to this because it just refreshed my mind and filled me with the spirt!! And reminded me that I am a Daughter of My Heavenly Father!!!
(PS I just want to Say THANK YOU THANK YOU again Mom for these Tickets!)
