{a very bloggable event...}

today was a MONUMENTAL day at the peterson house.

for weeks now tate has been telling me he had a "pup" after the fact. (poop, for those who don't speak tatineese)

sometimes even taking the iniutive to take off his diaper, again, after the fact. well folks(drum roll please!!!)

we have broken new ground...

today tatie took his first "pup" in his big boy potty!

(sorry i tried to screen the feces as much as possible)

here is tate looking on to a job well done.

now i do realize we still have much of an uphill battle ahead, but we have taken

the first steps and i couldn't be prouder! my goal is to have it done by the time the baby comes...

i guess we will have to wait and see.

the sweet taste of victory!

just think tate, you could possibly enjoy the melt-in-your-mouth, savory taste of a sucker 3-5 times a day!

(or 27-30 times if you are a prego)

{for my siblings in a far off land...}

(alright, alright... boston and north carolina but still:)

i wanted to do the next best thing to being there...

bloggin about it for the fam that missed it.

the championship baseball banquet

jensen had his head buried in his hands during this moment of the evening.

mmm...i had to get a pic of the food because it did not disappoint!



all the boys signed baseballs for everyone to have

sorry these pics aren't the best

(kenny and i got demoted to the very back corner table)

here's dad announcing the jv mvp. jens missed it to trevor by one vote.

you can guarantee that mom demanded a recount...

our lil bro getting his varsity letter...awe

all in all it was a very nice evening.

mom and dad did an excellent job, and aren't they the cutest?

it wasn't the same without you guys. we sure miss and wub so much!

{goin all the way...}

we have had a very eventful week...

for those that don't know us too well, we are huge baseball fans!

(and that might be an understatement)

my dad is the baseball coach at timpanogos high and my little bro. jensen plays on the team,

so much of our spring has been spent at the ball park!!!

and without further adieu...they won the 5A state championship on saturday!

cute cookies for the players before the game

the state games were played at UVU where they had a fun playground to entertain the boys

i made these t-shirts for the boys to wear at the games

best buds and future balla's

during the game...

a seventh inning stretch restie

post game show
getting hounded by the paparazzi...

i think most would really enjoy this moment,

not my dad, he is one of those that would rather be in the coffin than giving the eulogy.

celebrating!

the sweet smell of victory! congrats to all the coaches and players...
we are your #1 fans!

like i said... we live, eat, breath and sleep baseball...

{my lil' sis is married...(tear)}

last friday my little sis, paige went and got herself hitched.

since my mother (the martha of all wedding coordinators) doesn't

do anything small scale...the weeks leading up were somewhat hectic-

but everything turned out so beautifully!

the night before

dinner at jordan's parents

the boys kept themselves entertained with the waterfall

my little twinners!

really does it get any cuter???

the salt lake temple

once again keeping the littles entertained...




the happy couple...

they both were just glowing

a few of paigies bridals.

its not that hard to capture a good one when you look like her!

the reception at thanksgiving point

in the rose garden

the whole gang

the boys and their bestest aunties

the garden itself is so pretty you hardly have to do anything to it.

but my mom did a fabulous job filling it with flowers and fluff to

make it gorgeous!

what a fun filled weekend we had! congrats to paige and jordan and

best wishes. we love you so much and know your going to do great things

together. hope your loving life in the bahamas...

its been many moons...

i do realize its been days since my last post and you all are just waiting

with bated breath to see what the petersons are going to do next...:)

the reason being, kenny now takes the laptop to work and leaves

me internet-less. but this morning i snagged it for a

brief update.

i had a very fun filled, action packed mothers day. i decided its one of

my new favorite holidays. not only did i get breakfast in bed and

showered with gifts, but it also reminded me of how blessed i am to be a mother.

which leads us right into point #2...

i went to the doc this week and all looks well with mystery baby #2.

that right, we decided to not find out the gender of the baby until

he or she comes. as john bon jovi would say..."oh, were half way there, oh-oh

livin on a prayer. take my hand well make it i swear..."

that's my theme song this week as we (i) hit the half way mark of being prego and

now am the mother of one and a half children!

its hard to tell but the bb is doing a toe touch in this pic.

cheerleader? gymnast?

and these are the cute little feet. the whole thing is so amazing.
