Mountain West Track

Now that it's spring I think we will be living at the track or sand dunes riding. Which puts Cohen and Dallas in 7th heaven! Who would have thought it would be so much fun! Cohen absolutely loves riding with his Daddy. This trip Cohen tried to follow his Dad and Josh out on the track which scared me to death. I had to chase him holding Kenzley and his fourwheeler is pretty fast finally I caught up to him and he said he was going to ride with Daddy. I love to do anything that my kids enjoy it makes life and activities more enjoyable! Kenzley does really well too she loves to be outside! Here is Josh trying to show Kenzley how to do number 1 with her hand and she was actually trying to do it. She is so much fun. Her personality is starting to shine more and more each day.
Cohen going through the whoops on his fourwheeler.

My little cutie!


Gotta love bath time!

The first video is of Cohen doing the whoops at the track. He is such a pro! I can't believe how well a 2 year old can ride.
Next is Dallas and his friend riding. The first guy is his friend Josh and then Dallas is the second.
Kenzley absoultey loves her big brother. She loves to watch him run around and play. Her favorite thing to do lately is chase Cohen around the house. Cohen loves it and Kenzley loves it. She will laugh and giggle. Here is a video of Kenzley watching Cohen play on his horse and Cohen loves making her laugh.

Zoo

This is where Kenzley usually is when we are eating dinner. She loves to be apart of what's going on. Here are some pictures of me and the kids at the Zoo with my brother Cory, July, Cayman and Cooper. We finally had a nice enough day to take the kids. Cohen was very excited. The week before we drove up there to go but it turned out too windy and we went somewhere else. He has been wanting to go ever since then so I'm glad we got the chance. It was fun as always. The kids love playing together and watching all the animals. I get tired but love taking them. I don't know how single parents do it. Without Dallas coming it is alot harder with the two then I thought. I had the stroller for Kenzley but of course half the time she wanted to be held so I put her in the carrier on me which works great. Cohen did pretty good but I'm a nervous mom and put his back pack leash on him. While we were eating lunch he wasn't staying as close to me as I wanted so he got the leash. I feel bad but at the same time I don't want him to run off and lose him. I would rather look like the crazy mom that has their kid on a leash, oh well! We also had Uncle Cory who helped alot with Cohen. I kept teasing him that he probably looked like a pologamist with me and July and he had 4 kids! It was cute to watch him hold Cooper and then hold Cohen's leash and Caymans hand. I also loved how Cohen and Cayman held hands. I was surprised at how many dad's are out there with their families during the week days in the middle of the day! When do they work? Our dad/husband is always at work! Hopefully now that it's summer he wont work quite as much and learn to play a little more!












Dad and Kenzley chilling at the sand dunes!
Dad and Kenzley taking a nap! I love them both aren't they cute?!
Cohen made some little girlfriends at my brothers CJ's house. He had so much fun driving around with them. It was hard to get him to leave.
Cohen relaxing at the races.

The best picture I could get of Dallas racing. It is so hard to catch him on the camera. This was his first race for the season and I'm glad he is still alive and all together. He did pretty good too. He got the hole shot on both races but we call him the next Alessi because he starts at great but slowly falls back. Hopefully with some practice and exercise he will become the next Stewart! It is alot of fun to go and watch him!

Easter

Happy Easter everyone hope you all had a fantastic Eater weekend!
Kenzley sporting her pigtails. I love that I can do my months old hair it's so fun.
Kenzley's easter stash.


Cohen can be hard to get to pose for a picture so I pretty much followed him around the house and this was the best I could get. I think he is pretty handsome. Kenzley in her easter outfit, what a cutie!






This is what the easter bunny left at our house!


I must admit I'm not the best easter bunny. The other day we were shopping and I take the kids with me whenever I shop which I probably might not want to do for holidays anymore. Cohen found this Handy Manny and loved him so I bought it for him right then. When we got home I hid him and he was asking for him later that night and I said maybe the Easter Bunny will bring it for you. So for easter he see him and says the Easter Bunny gave handy manny back for me! I was laughing so hard. I guess I should start shopping alone now.
Cohen's easter eggs he painted and decorated.
Cohen loved painting easter eggs this year and we all had fun with him.







Kenzley enjoyed watching her brother. Now instead of being scared of Cohen she is starting to laugh at him. It is very cute.

Cohen and Daddy dunking their oreo cookies in milk before bed
We went swimming the other day and I forgot to take pictures out in the pool so I only got pictures when we were done and changing. But we had alot of fun. Cohen regressed a little bit and didn't like swimming as much as he did last year. So we will have to go some more and practice his swimming lessons. Kenzley however loved floating on her back she was such a great baby!

I had just stuck her under the hand dryer to dry her hair so her hair is everywhere!
Dallas was out of town for a week up in Portland for work so me and Cohen had a fun activity every day to keep us busy. We went to Jumping Jacks, the aquarium, discovery gateway and playgrounds. I didn't take too many pictures because it was too hard to take pictures and keep track of two kids but we had lots of fun and it definitely helped the week go by fast. I was also happy that the were very very good for me. Cohen never threw any tantrums and he always went straight to sleep when I put him down at night. They were both angels for me which of course was heavenly! But it is definitely nice to have daddy home!



Kenzley chilling in the trailer at the sand dunes. I have never put a beanie on her because I didn't want to cover her hair but she was so stinking cute in it.


I drove the kids over to sand mountain to watch Daddy race. When we got there we watched Daddy go up a couple of times and then Cohen asked me to drive up and I said no way so then he says I will drive and I was like uh no. Once daddy came down Cohen asked for him to take him up the hill. So Cohen got on Dallas' banshee and they raced up Sand Mountain. Cohen is such a brave little boy! I doubt very many 2 years olds have raced up that hill.
It must have worn him out he fell asleep and so did Kenzley. I don't know how they can sleep with all the loud fourwheelers but the sure did. I think Kenzley even sleeps better in the trailer that she does at home.


Cheese!
Kenzley loves playing on her activity mat. She will seriously lay there and play for an hour and Cohen of course has to play with whatever she does.


Cohen hasn't been taking his regular naps for me in his bed as much. The other day it got real quiet and I went and checked on him and he had fallen asleep on his couch watching a movie.
