Parker with a baby pig

Then we saw Shelby "the Dairy Princess" in the parade.

Then Randy, my brother Preston, and my brother-in-law Isaac parcipated in the "Wild Cow Ride" at the rodeo. It's an event for the locals to come out in be in the Rodeo. The cows have halters and ropes on them and they come out of the chuts. They teams have 2 and a half minutes to saddle the cow and ride it between the Grandstands and the clowns' barrel. The first night they got pretty far and were almose to the barrel, but there was another team in the way and the cow wouldn't move. Then the 2nd night they got the same cow and they won!! Randy got to ride the cow for like 30 seconds or more. I was too excited to count how long he was on the Cow.

Randy, Isaac, and Preston on the first night.

Wyatt's shirt says "I'm a lil Redneck"

When we first to go Washington, Randy and Kevin raced in another Bmx race. Randy got 1st and Kevin got 3rd. Good job guys.

Kevin is sad that his trophy was so small ;)

Sorry it took so long to get these posted. But here is our little man! He is growing so fast!



A whole month already!



Three weeks.



Two weeks.


A week old.


My men sleeping.


Michael wasn't exactly facing the right direction when he was coming out, so I ended up pushing for 3 hours ad still the doctor had to get a suction cup to pull him out. That is what this bruise is. It looked like a little Jewish Yamaka hat , it stuck out about 1/2 inch when he came out. There is still a little bump on his head today.


So here is our little angel right after he was born.

So now that I am sort of getting used to being a mom, I can finally do something other sleeping, eating and using the bathroom! At a week old Michael was rolling over and at two weeks I caught him rolling over on my phone. He has done it about five or six times now. (so it wasn't just a fluke) Anyways, he will be a month old on Friday. I am having issues with the camera, when I get it working, I will post more pictures. Love you all!

I post sooooo many pictures on my blog, but after Grandma wrote me a little side note on my b-day card, I realized that I almost never post on the Bird blog! So here are some pictures that I have posted on my blog already, and a couple I haven't posted yet.


This is my favorite picture of Evelyn right now. I love her blue eyes :) Evie has just barely been taking a couple of steps! It's so exciting and crazy to see a 30 inch tall person trying to walk!


Evie and daddy!


Big toothless grin! :) Well, she has 2 teeth on the bottom, but she is almost 14 months so I am wondering where the other ones are hiding...


Us in Atlanta over Labor day weekend with Todd's side of the fam!


Evie thinks it's fun to crawl into her toy basket!


The other day I got to go watch Todd fly. It was totally awesome! I realize you can't see much, but I promise that Todd was in this helicopter and was flying it pretty darn well!


You can barely see, but Todd's flying an Apache at the very top of this picture. So cool!


Our pool on post apparently changed it's hours, so Evie and I got creative and I bought her a little $6 inflatable pool. We put on her cute new swimsuit and went "swimming" in the front yard!


Here's Evie in the pool and pointing at mama!


I love this picture because Evie looks so cute and because there is a CHEERIO stuck to her forehead. Hehe!


Aunt Paula, Linz, France and Grandma at the "after reception party" (haha) in Spokane back in July.


It was dark, but this is the BEST picture I could get of Grandma's smokin hot new car!


Another view of her sweet ride ;)


Me, Linz and Grandma outside after the reception.

I have TONS of photos of Linz's wedding and all the receptions and all of our adventures in Spokane on my blog if you want to see it. Our blog is private so if you can't get in already, then post your email and I will send you an invite if you want. Love you all!

Kenzie is 2! (And so is Lucy, Happy Birthday!)

Kenzie and her cake. (It's upside-down. The butterfly is facing her)



Kenzie and her uncles. Thanks for celebrating with us.



Kenzie's present. If you look closely, but leg disappeared. I was wearing pants and my leg became transparent somehow.



Here is Joseph! He started crawling this week and is all over the place.

Here are video's of each of they boys last race on Saturday.

Randy (2nd overall)

Cory (3rd overall)

Kevin (3rd overall)
