The Day With the Bunnies!










Here are some pictures of the kids I got taken back in March. My friend Cherise took them for us. She always does such a great job! Kennadee loved the bunnies and was so gentle and sweet. She fell in love with the little white one. Tillman on the other hand was not so gentle. His idea of petting was slamming his hand down on it as hard as he could. He thought he was being nice. :) Yeah, we didn't let him hold them much! I think he scared the bunnies so bad one of them had an accident and pooped. It was quite a day! Thanks Cherise!

PAT'S RUN






On Saturday we did the Pat's Run! Well Mareen, Cali, Dr Beck, and Alison did the run and I walked with Tillman in the stroller for the 4.2 miles. Kennadee and Makenna did the kid's run. It was a beautiful day and it was well worth it. The run started at 7:00 am and the walk at 7:30. The traffic was so bad getting there Mo barely made it in time for the run. I walked with The PINK TEAM! (Holly, Marcie, Julie and the adorable Ayla) I was glad I had them as company and we all crossed the finish line at the same time. Anyone up for it next year? I know I am! I love Pat Tillman and I love what he stood for and the life he led. He left behind a huge legacy and if you don't believe me you should have just seen the thousands and thousands of people participating in the Run this year. It was like a sea of yellow shirts as far as the eye could see! :)

SHE DID IT!








Ok so I am so obsessed with the BIGGEST LOSER. It is my favorite show in the whole wide world, ( I cry every episode) To see these people change there lives and transform there bodies is so amazing. I love it! And finally after 5 years a female has won. Ali, who is actually from Arizona won. I can't believe how awesome she looks. This was my favorite season by far. If you dont watch it I highly reccomend the show, it's not just about weight but about people and what they overcome in there life. It is very inspiring. Plus BOB the trainer is so good looking, he's fun to watch too! :) I added a picture of him too just cause he's so CUTE!

CALLING ALL GIRLS!




I am calling all girls, whether married, single, kids etc. Do you ever feel like you just need a night out or away from everything? I DO! Here is my plan. Once a month like every 3rd Thursday (example) we all get together and go out to dinner or go bowling, or just go have some fun. We can get out of the house, away from our jobs and have some girl time. Everyone needs a good night away to regroup! :) So what do you say anyone that wants to do it just let me know! We can either start it this month and we can start next month. Let me know what you think!

Kenn's first softball game











On Tuesday Kennadee had her first softball game! She plays with the town of Gilbert. It is coach pitch for girls 7-9! It was really exciting to watch let me tell you. :) She got to play 1st base, 2nd base, and catcher. The catcher mask was way tooo big and kept falling off her head so they had to stop the game a COUPLE times so I could fix it for her. I thought for sure since the mask was too big her coach wouldn't put her at catcher again but low and behold the next inning she was back at catcher. She did do a really good job throwing that ball back to the pitcher so that had to be the reason he put her there again. So we tried putting her hat on before the mask and that seemed to work a little better but not by much! :) She did a great job and I am very proud of her! We had a hard time keeping Tillman off the field and away from the balls so Cali ended up taking he and Makenna on the playground. They had lots of fun going down the slide. Here are some cute pics from the game and the slide!

I'm an Auntie!


Yesterday my brother Seth and his wife April had there first baby! It was a handsome little boy named Caden Michael Stoltz (such a cute name) Weighing in at 7lbs 12oz and 20inches long! He is healthy and great and Seth said April did an awesome job! I am so excited for Seth and April. I know they will be the best mommy and daddy ever! By looking at this picture I would say he looks alot like Seth espescially the mouth! But who knows they change so much from the time they are born! I can't wait to meet my new nephew! Congratulations Seth and April I love you both! Now my grandparents have 15 great grandchildren with 4 more on the way this year! Tracy your next, we can't wait to meet your little Sydnee Colleen!

Weekend Recap


We had a wonderful weekend! On Saturday Kennadee was baptized! It was an amazing day and she is very happy that her great grandpa Sheldon was able to baptize her on his 80th birthday and her little brothers 1st birthday. It will be a day she will never forget! Thanks to everyone who came and made it such a SPECIAL day for Kennadee!

Then on Sunday we had my grandpa's 80th birthday party. It was fun for everyone to get together and celebrate our wonderful grandpa! I love my grandpa more than words can say and I don't know what any of us would do without him. He is an amazing man who has always been there for all of us no matter what. It is hard to see him getting older. WE love you grandpa and thanks for being the best grandpa EVER!

I will post some pics from the baptism when I get them downloaded!

Peter Piper Pizza











Yesterday since Kennadee didn't have school and Randy was off I decided to just work half the day. We wanted to do something fun with Kennadee so off to Peter Piper Pizza we went. We had a blast! Tillman loved riding the fire truck, train, and car. He was so excited! Kennadee, Randy, and I ended up winning 750 tickets while only spending around $10-12 on tokens. It was so fun. Kennadee got a stuffed purple guitar, and some other small prizes with her tickets. It was so fun we kept getting so lukcy on the Speedy Pizza game. It was too fun.

Happy Valentine's Day

I love Valentine's Day! It's fun and I always get a small gift from my mom. This year she got me some cute Valentine slippers and a picture of our family in a frame. Thanks mom. She always gets Kenn and Till stuff too. She is the best grandma ever. I remember right after I had Kennadee and she got RSV we were actually in the hospital on Kenn's first Valentine's Day. It was a hard time and Kennadee was really sick. But that didn't stop my mom from coming up to the hospital in Phoenix when she lived all the way out on the Base (long drive) on Valentine's Day with a gift for me and Kenn! It wasn't anything huge and spectacular but it meant the world to us. It's seems like it's always the little things in life that end up mattering the most. So thanks mom for being the person you are and always giving to others. That's why I love Valentine's Day!

Kennadee is 8

Happy Birthday Kenn Dogg!

Kennadee turned 8 on Friday the 25th! I can't believe my daughter is already 8! Time flies. She got to have a sleepover with two of her friends and we had a great time singing karaoke! I think I heard Rhiannan's Umbrella enough times to not want to hear it anytime soon. Especially the part UMBRELLA EH EH EH! :)
Then on Saturday her dad and I took her to see Disney On Ice Princesses! It was really neat! We had a great time. Then we stopped by El Charro to see my brothers who came into town and pick up Tillman. It's nice to have the boys in town and my dad ended up flying down yesterday so it should be a fun couple of weeks. I know Kennadee is on cloud nine with all of her uncles and grandpa Terry here.

Other than that not too much is new in my life. Tillman is about ready to take his first step. He will stand up and act like he is going to take a step but then he just sits down. He is getting huge! At his nine month appt he weighed 23 pounds and was 31 inches. He was 100 % for his height and 85-90 % for his weight. He's a bruiser! He is also very protective of his sister. When anyone goes to mess with her and she starts screaming he starts yelling and screaming at the person! It's hilarious and so cute! (I think he might have his mom's temper.) I will post some of the pics from Kenn's birthday party soon!

Forever and a Day!

Ok so I know it has been forever and a day since I have posted last but I just am not that great at this whole blog thing! Caryn told Mareen that if I didn't update my blog she was going to do it for me so I better do it.

Ok so I have some good advice for anyone that is going to start working out. DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT run up 6 flight of concrete stairs three times in a row unless the next day you want to be in serious pain. So lately I have been on this health kick and have been trying to lose some much needed weight. (yeah lots of much needed weight)Well I decided to that if I walked briskly around my building at work and then run up the stairs three times in a row after my walk I could burn some extra calories. (by the way I am doing this three times a day as well on both my breaks and my lunch) Well despite the fact that I have been going to the gym actively for about a month and half now I sure paid this week after going up the stairs. I guess when your body is used to be stationery while at work you shouldn't run upstairs. Ok let me just tell you how bad my calf muscles hurt. I can barely walk and when I raise my heel off the ground I get shooting pains up and down my whole leg. Not good. Now I am even too sore to resume normal workout at the gym. Also much to everyone else's humor I realized after day three that my whole buildingat work is in one big window so I am sure people have been getting a real kick out of watching the PLUS SIZE POSH or for short PSP running up stairs while at work. How embarassing. Can I be anymore LAME! But I just keep telling myself when I am done losing all this weight and am SMOKING HOT, they won't be laughing anymore, no, I might just see them outside my window running up the stairs. :)

So on a happier note Kennadee and Tillman are wonderful. I got Tillman's 6 month pictures done and I will post them on a slideshow for you! He is huge. He is crawling everywhere and he has learned to pull himself up and stand! Kennadee just found out she gets to be Stellaluna in her class play(the lead part) and she is excited. She also got straight A's on her first real quarter grades.

Oh yeah quick question? Is there anyone out there and likes Heidi on the Hills? Just curious?

So much to Say!

I know it has been awhile since I have posted so I have a lot to say! First I want to say Congratulations to Cali, Hardy, and Makenna! Who are now officially and legally a FAMILY!! We have all been waiting for this to happen and it finally did last Thursday 08-09! Makenna Lillie Jackson is now forever a part of our family and we all love her sooo much!
Next, Kennadee started school on Wednesday the 8th! So far so good. Her best friend ever and ever and forever Viviana is in her class and she even gets to sit next to her too! She was stressed out that 2nd grade was going to be hard for her but low and behold she made it through her first week. Oh if only we all had such little stress as 2nd grade! :) Gotta love little girls!
Third, my cousin Forrest had his farewell yesterday! It was great! He will be a great missionary and he will be serving his two years in Minneapolis Minnesota! Love you Forrest and good luck!
Fourth I posted a slide show of our trip to Washington. It was so fun as you can see! I love my family and miss them so much already. I wish Washington wasn't so far away.
Tillman is doing great! He is getting really big and got his first tooth last week! YAYE! Now so many more to come!
Ok last but not least THE HILLS starts tonight and I can't wait. DRAMA!

MAJOR

Well another weekend has passed and still no Randy! He is still out in Oklahoma training. We all wish he would hurry up and get home. The weekend was really fun. We had "girls night out" on Friday! That was a blast. Rachel and I couldn't stop laughing. It was a fun time.
Kennadee and I saw Hairspray on Saturday she loved it. It really was funny! Sunday I took the kids over to see there grandma Theresa. They hadn't seen her for awhile because we had been on vacation. It was fun and relaxing. Robert grilled some yummy steaks.
Tillman started his 2nd week at daycare. I must say I love his sitters Mary and Charmaine they are great and he loves them.
Did anyone watch the "Posh" Victoria Beckham reality show. I loved it and I love her! She is just MAJOR!
Well until the next time,
Heidi

Weekends go by too fast!

Well the weekend is coming to an end! I hate that! I wish the weekends would last forever. Tomorrow will be Tillman's first day at his babysitters! So far my mom has been able to watch him for me and that has been such a blessing. So I am sure I will be a little anxious tomorrow and calling Mary his new sitter too many times throughout the day to make sure he is ok. I am sure he will be fine. :)

Randy is still in Oklahoma sweating to death. I guess the humidity is at like 80% and there tents have no air conditioning. He said he is miserable. I feel bad! Soldiers truly are Heroes! They do so much for there country.

This weekend I saw Harry Potter and Transformers. I thought they were both so good. I can't wait for Hairspray to come out! I bought the soundtrack for Kennadee and she loves it.

Take care,
Heidi
