Way.. way behind!

I don't know why I let myself get so far behind! Its ridiculous! I have made a goal to blog at least once a week, even its just about funny things the kids say.

I need to blog about Halloween, I noticed I never put Hannah's first day of school pictures up.. ohh yeah, that was like 2.5 months ago. There is a lot more.. but I guess I should just start somewhere.

Back in the middle of October we had the annual "Harward Family Bike Ride". We all gathered at Big Rock Candy Mountain (I don't have a count but I'm gonna guess about 35 of us) and rode 12 miles back to Joseph where we ate lunch. I was SOOO proud of my little Hannah. She rode all but 1 mile (which was all up hill) on her own on her little bike. We were a little slow... those 12 inch tires don't go quite as fast as the rest... but she made it!! She never wanted to stop, never needed a break, and was mad that I made her get in the car for the uphill mile. As soon as we got back to my mom and dads house she asked if she could ride her bike to Grandma Harwards which is another few miles. She LOVES to ride her bike. Brady had a great time in the bike trailor. Jesse wasn't able to come with us, he was having a BOY'S GOLF weekend in St. George. I think they had more golf then they could stand.

After the bike ride we stopped at the pumpkin patch in Elsinore.. Pics to come soon! It was a super fun trip! We always LOVE going to Richfield.

Hannah started gymnastic's and LOVES it!! I have never seen her so excited about something. She was so proud of herself at the things she could do. She has been counting down the hours until the next time we get to go. The weeks are going to be VERY LONG i'm afraid.

Hannah also got bit by the swine flu bug!! Actually, 8 out of the 10 kids in her preschool got it too! Needless to say, school closed for a week. She is better and all is well.

Little Brady-man is as wild and crazy as ever! He is the funniest kid I have ever met. He takes such good care of me. He is always concerned if I am okay. The other day I was laying down with him and he said, "you go to sleep mom?" I said, "Yes". He pulled his blanket over me, started petting my face and said, "good night mamma". He waited a second, asked me to close my eyes, then he sang twinkle, twinkle little star. I LOVE him!
He LOVES to play dolls.. (sorry Jess ;) ) I think its good for a boy to get in touch with his nurturing side!! Nothing wrong with that!!! In fact, I might ask santa to bring him his own doll and stroller.... IN BLUE OF COURSE!!!!

Jesse has been in NY for a week!!! LUCKY DOG! It was for business, but how can you not go to NY and not play a lot as well!! He got to see Jersey Boys, Wicked, go to the NY GIANTS game, eat at ALOT of fancy places, and see ALOT of fancy things. He had a blast, but was ready to come home... and BELIEVE me... we were PASSED ready for him to come home. I got to hand it to ALL the single mom's out there!!!! Don't know how they do it!

While Jesse was in NY my aunts, mom and sister played in park city for a couple days. We did more shopping than I have ever done in that amount of time I think. I really dont like shopping that much I decided. Maybe its just because I'm grumpy and pregnant! Grandma Beal kept the kids... THANK YOU ANN! She is a life saver! We had a blast in park city! Ate a lot of food, visited a lot, shopped a lot.. didn't sleep a wink... but it was a blast! We stayed at the West Gate Resort thanks to Cade and Racquel. So fun!! Can't wait until next year!

A quick Brady funny...

The other day while Jesse was gone, the kids and I ran to the store. We were already about to kill eachother anyway... so why do I drag them into a store? Who knows. Anyway, they were both being knot heads, and I was at the end of my patients. The lady at the check out even looked at me with saddness as we were leaving and said, "good luck". Thats how bad this was. SO anyway.. we get in the car and I start scolding the kids. Brady starts crying and says, "not fair mom, not fair." I was a little baffled by this..! What in the world does he know about whats fair or not! I asked him what wasn't fair and he replied, "you no yuv (love) me." Oh I about peed my pants! He is always keeping us on our toes!!!

So thats it for this post, until I can get into my pictures!
