Kayden Ryan Hatch

Kayden was born December 18 at 10:31 am, he weighed 6 lbs 10 oz and was 19 and 1/2 inches long. I started to have contractions early saturday morning and we decided to go into the hospital at about 8 and i was already dilated to a 7. They gave me an epideral and he arrived about an hour later. Everything went so smoothly and we are just so happy that he came healthy and strong. Kynz loves her little brother so much and is always wanting to give him hugs and kisses, it is the cutest thing ever. We are so lucky that Kayden is such a patient little boy. It is definatley a huge adjustment to go from one child to two but we are slowly getting the hang of things. We love Kayden so much and he fits into the family perfectly! : )

Halloween...very late

I figured i prolly should blog about Halloween before Christmas gets here! This year was lots of fun, We dressed our little babe up as a fairy! She was in heaven about the wings.. i cant believe how much she enjoyed wearing them. We took her to a cute lil pumpkin patch and she learned to drive a little John Dear. haha! We also took her Trick or Treating that evening, she couldnt believe that all these strangers were giving her candy. It was a difficult task to keep the candy in her bucket. Me and Ry also enjoyed a few of her treats!! We all had a great time!

Kynz as an adorable fairy!! Love her!

My Little farmer

Grandma Rigby and Kynzee Bug

Playing kickball with daddy! Her absolute favorite thing to do!

After all the fun activities she came home and crashed....even before we had a chance to put her in bed!

Carving Pumpkins

Carving pumpkins is my favorite thing about October..it was even more fun having Kynz enjoy it as well. Steph and Conner came down to visit and our two kiddos loved digging into the pumpkins to get all the slimy seeds out, my favorite part was eating the seeds! Yum!!!

Aunt Teresa cutting the pumpkin open and lookin oh so cute! : )

Stepher and I with the babes

Im not surpised Kynzee loved carving pumpkins so much, she loves anything that gets her nice and dirty!

Rocking Chair

Ryan had this cute little rocking chair when he was little and we found it at his parents house but its legs were both broken off. We brought it home but it sat around for a while until i was able to get ryan to fix it( i attempted to but it didnt quite work). Ever since we fixed it kynzee drags it around with her everywhere. She loves that it is just her size. Ill turn on a show for her and she'll run and grab her rocking chair and park it right in front of the T.V. I love that she is able to have something that Ryan also loved when he was young.

Blackfoot Fair

I always look forward to the time when the fair comes to town, and this year was alot of fun. My older sister Steph and her husband Nate and their son Conner came down from Twin Falls to go with my whole family and we really enjoyed it. Kynzee is obsessed with animals so she was extatic when she got to see all the rabbits, cows, kitties, puppies and much much more. We enjoyed some yummy food and walked around and saw all the different things.

Kynzee enjoying some time with her aunt Chels. Kynz feeding the goats...she would laugh when they ate out of her hand, i think she thought it tickled.

Trying to get a closer look at the puppies

I love spending time with my sisters...we always have a good time when were together.

This is the best family picture we could get while we were there..kynzee was not wanting to be held..she had more important things to do i guess.

Splash Park

Towards the end of the summer we took Kynzee to the Rexburg splash park and she absolutley loved it... I think i took her everyday one week! She was to afraid to go down the slides but enjoyed jumping into the fountains. Heres Kynz begging to go...this face is always to hard to say no to.

Watching all the big kids go down the slide

She made a new little buddy that would walk her around to all the different fountains and would hold her hand to make sure she was okay. It was really cute! They hugged a few different times while we were there.

For some weird reason she wouldnt stop trying to drink the water off of the ground..kinda gross!! haha

They also had this cute carousel that we took her on. She was a little afraid when it started moving, but once the music started playing she thought it was a blast and wanted to go again.

Kissin' Cousins

I just had to share this super cute picture that my big sis took. Dont we have the cutest kids ever? haha! We may have made them kiss more than one time! : )

A much needed update

Wow...it has been such a long time since i last updated my blog! Ryan and i started another semester of school in April and just finished last week. School has kept us both extreamly busy, so we are super excited for some free time to enjoy the warm weather and our adorable Kynzee. Kynzee will be 17 months towards the end of August and she is just getting smarter and smarter everyday. Her favorite things include...rocks, dirt, water, baths, outside, doggies, strawberries, and basically anything else that she can get dirty with. She is talking and running like crazy. I can not believe how much her vocabulary has grown in the last month, she can say so many things and can sign a large amount of words. It is so fun watching her discover new things and is such a joy in our lives.

We also have some great news...We found out that i was pregnant in May!!! Yay! We are super excited to extend our little family! Yesterday we had an ultrasound and found out that the little one is a BOY!! My due date is December 29th, we are hoping he doesnt decide to make his entrance on Christmas day. haha! Maybe we will have to bring him home in a stocking! Ryan is super excited to have a little boy to even out the playing field..i guess ill have to learn to love blue as much as pink! : )

One Year Photos

We had Kynzee's pictures taken just a few days before her 1st birthday and i think they all turned out really cute! Here are a few of my favorites!
