Layton Scott Nelson & Jake Scott Nelson

These are my two handsome boys!!!!
I love having them so close in age(14 1/2 mo)
They have such a good time together.

Shots of the week

Yes, Layton already has a girlfriend....Maggie..she is a sweetheart!




Jake makin' the cookies, Layton eatin' the dough.



Look how high Jake got up in our tree...
I had to go up and get him.




Superman!!! And super buff Daddy!!



Scott made a noise like a rocket and
shot the boys up in the air.

Potty Training in Progress

Here are the boys running around in their underwear while Layton is being potty trained. They are watching the Garbage Man take away the diapers he put in the trash. He is doing great. He even woke up dry...yippy for Layton!!! Yippy on the finances.....no more diapers...for Layton anyways...we still have baby Dallin.

Finishing our Basement

Scott decided to take matters into his
own hands and finish the basement.
We are so excited to have more room for the kids,
toys, us....our family is growing and more room is
needed.

Here are the kids watching Scott break down all the
plywood we had up temporarily in the basement.




Here is the basement before Scott put up the frame.


It was quite the process getting the wood into the basement.

Here is the framing job. Way to go Ryan & Scott. There
are still a few more walls to get up, but it's a great start.

I'm so impressed with Scott. He had to move a few pipes
so that we wouldn't have to lower our ceiling. That included
moving pluming, air ducts, and our sump pump....he just
dug right in and got it done so we could get the framing
underway. Way to go baby!!!

Luckiest Mom in the WORLD!!!

I have the best boys ever!!!! I am so lucky to have them in my life.
I love every second of every day that I get to spend with them.
Life can be busy-crazy with them, but it's worth every second.
I love you Jake, Layton, & Dallin!!

Got Spoons!!!!

This is how I found Jake eating his yogurt one day.
Gotta love it!!!
