Summer Time

Here are a few pictures of what we have been doing in our spare time for summer fun.  Bronc and Tucker have become my regular roping practice buddies for the last few months.  Some girl-friends of mine and myself have an all girls ranch rodeo team, so we have been practicing frequently throughout the spring and now into the summer.  Bronc and Tucker are our compadres and Tucker is our lil guy that gets to travel along with us to our rodeos.  He is getting pretty seasoned already.  I can't leave him since he is nursing and he absolutely refuses to drink my milk from a bottle.  Therefore he goes with us.  It has been a challenge to find helpers during the events but luckily my buddy Andrea has had someone there for a helper.  Thank goodness the next few are close to home!! 



 

Here are Bronc and Kale on our way to a lil branding.  They were eating powdered sugar doughnuts and being super silly. 

 Our kid cowboy crew, aren't they the cutest!! Check out Bronc and Kale.  Kale is going to be 6 soon and Bronc is 2.  Bronc is wider than Kale just shorter.  I think we have a big boy on our hands!

 Kale was teaching Bronc how to crawl through the fence minus the hat

 Bronc makes it and then Kale snatches his hat and wore it the rest of the day, lil stinker!

 It was kinda an all girls branding, plus we got in some practice.  We did have Tyler and Dustin to help us and give us pointers of course!!

 Bronc was a great babysitter, he loved helping with Riley.  She was our cheering section for the day.  She would just scream and scream at us, in a funny way!!

 Dustin, Andrea and Jessica waiting on Saige to bring us a calf

 Tyler was a good helper for Kale and Saige to try and drag a calf or two.  Kale caught two for his first time and did great!

 I love this picture of my Broncers, he is always so happy and this picture really shows it!!

I have really enjoyed our summer so far, we always stay super busy, which gets old, but it is a part of our lives and I wouldn't trade for anything!



4 Months Old

Check out these pictures of our two boys.  This shows you how different they both really are.  This was an unplanned picture of Tucker, I just happened to take a picture of him in his jammies and bumbo chair.  I sent it to Mom and I guess we had taken a picture of Bronc as well.  Well she sent it to me and we laughed. Both boys are 4 months old in these pictures.  I can't give you stats on Bronc because all my stuff on him is at our other house.  Tucker weighed in at 16.8 lbs around this time and we weighed him today and he weighed 17.4 lbs.  

Bronc has Tylers brown/olive skin, brown eyes, lips and there hair grows the same.

Tucker has Momma's skin color, eye shape, lips and hair color.

We got a bit of both in our precious boys. 



Brown Bean



White Marshmallow



I've always called Bronc my Lil Brown Bean and Mom started calling Tucker our Lil White Marshmallow!!

Smorgusborg of the Kids

Smorgusborg, is that how you spell that word? I'm not really sure.  What I mean is here are several pictures of the boys within the last few months since I am major behind on updating my blog.  Lets catch you up real quick!!

Bronc and Tucker having some Brother Time.  Bronc loves his Lil Bro. 

 They are already riding double, I can't wait for them to be riding their horse Nacho together!! Fun times to come!

 Tucker is one happy baby.  He makes me smile  :)

Out for a morning walk

 Bronc always has to climb up on the changing table when it is diaper time.  He can't miss out on anything at all!

 My Baby Ivy, she is so overweight right now and on our walks if there is any water around she is in it.  Poor thang...she has bad hips and it is hard for her to get around.  Im trying to get weight off of her so I can get them fixed.  It is a struggle since she hoards food.  I don't blame her, I like to eat to.

 This boy is all boy.  He loves the dirt!

 Great Grandpa Cornelius enjoying Tucker, look at that belly on Tuck.

 Great Aunt Anna holding the Marshmallow

 My boys enjoying their Daddy

Bronc was so tired, he sat himself down in Tuckers swing and went to sleep

Tucker riding Lucky.  Tyler starts them young!!

I love this picture.  Its not that great of a picture, but it was so cute.  Bronc went outside and sat down on the porch and was just talking to himself and having a good time.  He already has quite the imagination for a two year old.

And that is a Smorgusborg!!

A Lil Fishing

We went fishing the other day at our neighbors house!! It was fun and relaxing.  They have a fun tank that they built years ago and they stock it with all kinds of fish.  They even have two pet ducks that swim around.  It is really pretty and quite big as well.  Bronc had a lot of fun. 

 Our little Brown Bean.  He is so cute, I can hardly stand it.  Just love the lil guy!

 Momma and Tucker chilling

 Bronc hanging out in his chair, he stole my drink, this is a regular occurance.  I try to not share because there usually ends up being floatation devices, objects, food or whatever in my drink.  Yummo....

 Notice the little head sticking up out of the boat.  It is Bronc.  I wanted to go fish in the middle of the tank, so I paddled my way out to the middle and then the wind decided to push me back to the bank.  Bronc really wasn't impressed with the boat so he just sat down and waited for us to get to the bank so I could let him out, I think he was a little scared. 

 Our little Cutie Pie Pie.  He is such a wonderful baby. 

Y'all come fish with us sometime!! 

Stuff

Bronc will most likely not like me posting pictures when he is old enough to care, but he just cracks me up!!  For some reason, Bronc will strip down to his bare birthday suit when we are outside and just run around plum naked.  I just laugh at him.  He always has to get wet and then play in the mud.  Notice the brown buns.  Silly boy!!

Auntie Shel came for a visit in May!! We enjoyed her being here!!

I took a trip to my Mom's a few weeks ago.  The drive stunk because I was by myself and Tucker is alot like Bronc was when he was a baby.  Tucker is fine in the car seat while sleeping, but when he is awake it is on. So it took me a great deal longer to get there due to having to stop on a regular basis. It was really great to get to hang out and just chill with the family.  My sister and I took the boys to the zoo in Abilene.  They had alot of fun minus the extreme heat!!



Bronc and cousin Parker feeding the fish



      Caden and Tucker

Tucker is such a little ham.  He really loves to chow down on a regular basis.  He started cooing at 2 months and is now going to be 4 months this Friday.  Tucker laughs, blows bubbles, smiles all the time (reminds me of Tyler), he is really a laid back baby (got that from me)!!  He also likes to swing, sit in his bumbo chair and chew on his hands constantly.  It looks like we are going to have a brown haired, blue eyed boy!!  I hope they stay blue, so far that is the case.!! 



                                   

                                       We also went to the zoo with Auntie Shel



We went to the Clovis zoo while Rachelle was here.  It wasn't that great in my opinion but Bronc enjoyed it.  I was impressed with all the peacocks, and wanted to pluck their feathers, but I decided I better leave them alone.  I would have loved to have the entire tail to make something out of it!!

Here are a few pictures of Bronc helping MiMi water her flowers and garden.  He loved helping and run around in the green grass!!

            

 Pawpaw and Lil Tucker

 Our handsome boy!

Bronc hanging out with Tucker in his crib!

We have been busy with Ranch Rodeos, bronc ridings and life as usual.  It seems like we are on the go all the time.  Still not moved, not quite sure when that process will happen.  The house is just sitting there looking to be finished!!!
