Picture update!

Pictures over the last couple months.

Stu took the boys ice fishing a lot!!!

We had some injuries in the Clark household, this one Stu was opening a can and cut his hand open on the lid. Also Skyler broke his arm in October (I have pictures of this but could not find them :( )

Sydney is growing and cute as ever!! I love this little dog.

Cooper is crazy, funny and loving all in one!

Stu finished another room in the house, the workout room, and yes that is Rockies colors you are seeing!

Boys are playing baseball again, and loving it! They both just tried out for all-stars!!

Cooper is waiting for his turn, he will play T-Ball next year, but as you can see, he can't wait.

Both the boys had some big catches ice fishing, Stu did also but I can't find that picture either. (I am starting to blame the computer because it couldn't be me lol)

Overall it has been a pretty good year, and I know that it is just getting better as the the kids grow. I love seeing how they have changed, and the little men they are becoming!

Wow over a year since a post!!!

I first have to apologize for my absence from the blogger world. I have had such a crazy year and promise to take a minute to update you all on what has gone on. We have had a lot of changes over this past year and sometimes I wonder if we are even the same people that we were when I stayed home with my little ones.

To summarize the last year, we have been heavily into baseball with the boys and are loving it, I am still working full time at Discover Card and have been promoted to Team Leader, it is a great job and they really treat me well. We have had some losses in our life, first one of Stu's very best friends and boss Dave Moffitt lost his battle with cancer, and Stu is transitioning into a new business venture with a new owner. Also we lost Stu's Stepmother Debbie, she lost her fight with liver failure. Things have definitely turned for us and changed us, but we are shining through the dark times.

The boys are doing GREAT! Cooper is 4 and loving life, he is happy, crazy, and busy, we can never get enough of this kid. Cayden is 8 and a monster at baseball, this kid is all about it, from his reports at school to all his spare time playing, and a huge Rockies fan. Skyler is 11, and playing baseball, but still just loves to be with his thoughts and build anything and everything, something that me and him have started doing together is going mountain biking and this kid is loving it, I can't get enough of the smile on his face when we are riding.

I will follow up with more photos and more details, and again I am sorry for being so late, I will try not to make it a once a year update. (if anyone even reads this anymore, most of you have probably given up on me)

OH AND I FINISHED MY ASSOCIATES!!! SO I NOW HAVE MY ASSOCIATES IN SOCIOLOGY, AND HOPING TO GO FURTHER IN THE FALL!!!

Update!!!

I am so sorry, I have neglected my blog so bad, I havent even signed in to look at everyones cute blogs, but I promise I will. So, I thought I would quickly update all of you that are left looking at my blog, which I am sure is nobody considering there has been nothing to look at. I have recently returned back to work, it is working out so great, they treat me really well and I have a great schedule (7-3:30). I got a job as a Credit Analyst at Discover, and Coop is going to a great babysitter and she loves him so much, (thanks Linds for telling me about her). Skyler and Cayden are doing great with me returning to work, I get home about a half an hour after they get home from school so it works out great, they are doing so good, they help a ton and help with chores, I am so thankful for how big they are being. The hours allow me a couple hours to do school work before Stu gets home, and the nights are left for me enjoying my family. Returning to work after being able to be home for 2 1/2 years has been a huge adjusment and I really struggled leaving my little man that I spent every minute with, but it is turning out to be great for him also because it gives him alot of play time with other kids.

We have had some things that we are working through and I have been very reluctant to talk about these things but sometimes the more prayers the better. Since the beginning of Summer last year we have been dealing with a hard thing, and some of you already know, that my husbands dear friend and boss has been diagnosed with cancer, he is fighting everyday to defeat it, and we pray everyday that he will. I have to say that my husband has been not just a blessing to us but also has been a huge help and blessing to Dave, he has stepped up and decided no matter what happens he will try his hardest to be not just the man we need him to be but also the man that Dave needs him to be. He has helped with the buisness and helped Dave so much so Dave can try and get better. Right now everything is looking up and we are crossing our fingers that the recent scans come out clean. And, in the last couple weeks we have got some bad news, my step mother-in-law is in a losing battle with her body, please keep her in your thoughts, we are hoping that she makes it out of this but things are not looking so good. It is amazing how one month everything seems fine then within days it seems to go downhill and is over.

Here are some pictures from Halloween and on, sorry it has been so long, and I cant promise that I will be better, with work and school I dont find much time. But I will definately try!

Happy Halloween!!!

The Worst Blogger Has Big News!

Sorry I am the worst blogger lately, I have so much to blog about and so many pictures but the time gets away from me. I thought I better write about some big news that just happened. We added to our little family, and no I am not pregnant!

We added to our family by way of a little puppy named Sydney, Cayden got her for his birthday and she is by the far the sweetest little thing I have ever seen. I am so in love with her. Cooper has yet to warm up to her, I don't think he likes sharing the "baby attention" but he is getting better and I have been making sure not to hold the puppy when Cooper is with me, and I have been trying to get him to help hopeing it will help.

Skyler has been a huge help, he loves her as much as the rest of us and really lives for this puppy lately, he takes her out to go potty and plays with her non stop. (you would think the puppy was his not Caydens) Cayden loves having his little puppy he is way busy, but he cleans up her messes and takes care of her really great!

Meet Sydney Clark, Born on the 4th of July and she is Jack Russel Terrier.

She loves to play and is good at going potty outside, and loves having our big 9 year old lab to play with. She loves the kids, and her favorite person is Stu! And she sleeps in the strangest postions, as you can see from the picture above.

Birthdays, First hair cut, Dog sitting, Easter, and Shirts off contest.

Well in my blogging absence, alot has happened. We have had two birthdays, Skylers, and Coopers, and had Coopers first hair cut, dog sat for my mom, Easter, and a shirts off contest.

School was busy this last semester but I made it through with outstanding grades and now I have some time to blog. So more posts to come.




Skyler and Coopers birthday cakes, their birthdays are only 5 days apart.

Skyler was super excited to get his presents, the first picture is of him getting the bionicle he has wanted FOREVER, hence the surprised face.

Cooper was so fun, he was learning how to open presents and still remembers a little from christmas, he got a bunch of great things that he loves.

First hair cut, you can't see it very good, but he did really good and actually liked the trimmers.

The first picture is of our dog Deek and Coop before the haircut, and the second picture is of my moms dog Angus. Coop loves to play with the dogs and acts like a puppy.

Easter was tons of fun, the boys loved their baskets and the new outfits, and then we got to go to easter egg hunt at Grandpa's, follow by some horseback riding.


And last but not least the shirts off contest. Which translates to who has the biggest muscles, I love Coop's face in this picture, when the older boys take their shirts off he has to do it to, and he is really into it.

Zoo post coming next.
