June was a BUSY time for the Vrbka's

2010-07-12T18:04:00.000-07:00

Well June was Super busy for us we started the month off with going to the zoo with Grandma Obermeier and Aunt Alicia with Jackson and Nathan. We had so much fun it was a beautiful day and the zoo was not crowded at all.. The Kids enjoyed see all the animals my kids favorite was the Giraffe and the fish. In June i did some Much needed spring cleaning with my Cousin Danielle's help. Unfortunately in the month of June we lost someone VERY close to us we lost Heath's Grandpa Vrbka. It was very hard on all of us and it was even harder to tell the boys. They are to young to understand and Coy still ask were Papa is.. the week after the passing of Grandpa Ray we had the Vrbka Reunion in Valentine and went tubing it was SO much fun. To end the month of June me and a couple of my Girlfriends are heading up getting New Playground for the Rising City Park. So we took a picture on the old equipment with some of the kids. here are some Pictures of June

Grandma Sue with her boys at the zoo

The boys coloring so we could do some spring cleaning :)

May with the Vrbka's

2010-07-12T17:49:00.000-07:00

May wasn't to bad of a month for us. It went by pretty fast for us. We did lots of fun things. we watched two of our cousins graduate from high school and they are both very close to the boys as they babysit a lot for us. I turned 27 years old the end of May that was a little hard getting closer and closer to 30 :( the boys got a swingset and they LOVE it.. here are some pictures that were done in May with the Vrbka's..

well Coy is a Big boy now has been in Big boy underwear for two weeks now :) he is doing really good with it.. I'm so proud of him... i thought it would be alot more harder than it was.. People weren't kidding when they said just let them decide when they are ready he pretty much told us on a sunday morning and has been going every since.. (although the first week was a little rough) Jett LOVES sitting on the potty so we might have to start with him soon !! not holding my breath with him though he is our free spirted child and is ORNERY!! i know i didn't think anyone could be more ornerey than coy but we have conquered that :) well that is what is new with the Vrbka Clan.. Now mom has the pleasure of cleaning up after TWO boys peeing in the toliet ahh the joys :)

Is Spring almost here???

2010-03-21T17:34:00.000-07:00

You never know with Nebraska if Spring is really here or if it is going to snow in a couple of days... But hey we will take the nice days as we get them.. Today was one of them nice day so we of course were outside all afternoon.. The Boys LOVE it they are definately outdoor kiddos.. so i really can't wait for it to be nice so we can run around outside... Today we cleaned out the van and the truck, went on a walk, then just enjoyed running around.. we actually got to see our neighbors we havent' really seen all winter long.. so that was nice.. We even grilled Hamburgers YUMMIE Grilling how i have missed you!!!!! the boys were NOT happy about coming back in the house.. but after baths Coy was OUT by 7:00 and Jett is about ready to go down.. ONCE again another reason why i LOVE it when it is nice out.. Outside Wears kiddos out :) YEAH!! i hope the weather stays nice..i also hope everyone else enjoyed the nice day like we did..

well i hope everyone survived the wonderful winter weather we have been having.. we had a good christmas sad we couldn't enjoy for long as we were always on the go due to the weather and not wanting to get stuck anywhere.. we had to cancel my mom's family side which was sad cause i didn't get to see my aunt from MN that we don't see much :( and then my brother and his g/f were back from chicago and we only got to see them for like 4 hours cause the roads were so bad we barely got there and wanted to get back on the roads before it got dark :(

After christmas we celebrated Jett's 1st birthday i can't believe my baby is 1 already :( he is so much fun and has such a fun personality we just had his pictures done today and i can't wait to see them :) he was so much fun..

I'm also so excited as for less than a month from now i will be in Hawaii on the beach and i will be AWAY from this damn snow and cold weather..so i will think of you all then :)

christmas card time

2009-12-07T19:44:00.001-08:00

oh the joys of trying to get christmas cards ready.. i could have pulled my hair out of my head in trying to get a cute picture/pictures of the boys for the christmas card.. let me tell you how much fun that was.. IT WASN"T!! and let me tell you what i used.. not ONE of them together.. grrr.. there was one of them both turning away from me at the same time and i almost used that picture but i REALLY wanted a picture that you could see their faces..

I'm waiting for them to arrive this week so i can address them and get them mailed out. i feel really behind as we have already got 5 christmas cards.. and as i write this Heath is working on our letter to send with the cards :) he says its funny but his funny and my funny are not the same thing :) so we will see when he is done :) well i just thought i would blog so i don't have to hear that i haven't done it in awhile.. I will blog maybe again soon and post some pics of the boys..

we are suppose to have a big snow storm tonight so we will see maybe i'll update more.. if not here is wishing everyone a happy and safe merry christmas...

Halloween 09

2009-11-02T09:42:00.001-08:00

Here are some Pictures of Halloween.. There are more on my facebook account if you want to look at them.. Coy really enjoyed being a Wow Wow Wubbzy (it is a cartoon on Nick Jr that he is in LOVE with) Grandma Sue made his costume and he was SO excited about he wore it for a couple of days before halloween!! He really caught on through the night of going to the houses and getting candy and putting it in his bucket.. he wouldn't even hold my hand to walk after awhile he wanted to be like Cohen ( a friend of mines little boy that is 4)
Jett was a Lion he didn't really care for his costume.. but he didn't have to wear it long.. he stayed at home with dad and handed out candy while Coy and I went out.. Next year he will have fun going with us.. Here are some pics..

My little lion :)

Coy with one of his little g/f's Kandence

Coy my little Wow Wow Wubbzy!

WOw WOw and Lion :)

Harvest time!!

2009-10-20T18:24:00.000-07:00

a couple weeks ago heath was out harvesting and we were bored at home so we went out to visit the guys in the field.. The boys thought it was pretty cool to see the tractor and combine..when coy went for a ride with dad in the tractor he was SO excited then he saw Daryl in the combine and he was waving and then he heard his voice on the CB and he was lookin around as he could see daryl to the left but was hearing his voice coming from the right and he was SO confused.. Too cute.. well i posted a ton of pictures of that day.. ENJOY!! coy runnin out to get his dad or maybe to see the tractor..

ok lets go i was to drive this thing..

Dad and his boys...

Jett thought it was pretty cool as well :)

and they are off..

This is Coy leaving the field NOT happy..

and finally this is coy 2 miles from the field :) haha i guess he was tired :)

Forgot to post the pictures sorry!!

2009-09-02T14:59:00.000-07:00

these are pictures of Coy the top one is while he is eatting Spaghetti and below is coy climbing on the jungle gym at the park.. at 25 months old

These pictures are of Jett the top one is of him eatting his favorite snack the baby cheetos, and the bottom one was taken on his 8 month birthday!!

New in the Vrbka household :)

2009-09-02T13:08:00.000-07:00

well we have lots of new things going on in our house.. Jett is now 8 months old.. ( i know can you believe it has been 8 months cause i can't ) he is keeping us busy as he is army crawling but he is SO close to crawling right. He has been doing this for about a month now so i for see him crawling very soon :) He likes to pull himself up on you to stand.. he is a very tall boy.. Jett has some new favorite snacks.. he Loves the baby cheetos and of course he eats baby puffs and wagon wheels also.. He still just has 2 teeth.. but he is doing great.. Lots of fun, he also loves picking on his big brother already.. Mom and Dad will have their hands full now :) he is even saying some words.. he likes to say "Da" which is funny as he is a momma's boy :) but i guess Coy said "mama" first and he is a daddy's boy.. I will post pictures of Jett after i talk about his big brother ..

Coy is growing like a weed as well he is now 25 months old.. He is talking more and more, it is SO much fun to hear what he has to say.. he always has his dad and I laughing.. We have been slowing working on potty training.. but we are NOT forcing it just getting him comfortable with the toliet.. Mom is NOT looking forward to the day we go full force :( don't get me wrong it will be nice to have one out of diapers.. but not looking forward to the process of potty training.. if anyone has some good ideas for potty training boys let me know :) Coy went awhile without taking naps which wasn't so bad for me as then i didn't have to deal with him being crabby when he wakes up!! and he also went to bed earlier then.. but lately he has been falling asleep on the floor so i guess he needs his naps after all but dang back to having a crabby boy when he wakes up.. oh the joys of parenting..

As for the rest of us.. Dad is busy with work but not as busy as he is going to get with harvest just around the corner and he is also now on the chain gang at shelby for the home football games.. he is SO excited.. as for me i'm still meeting every monday with our book club a group of stay at home moms that are in this area.. I'm also still working out with one of my g/f's every day during the week and we are also enjoying walks.. Heath and I go on walks with the boys in the evenings as well when he gets home from work.. we are just enjoying this nice fall weather that is here early and getting ready for some Husker Football to start up :) YEAH!! Everyone take care and have a great Labor day Weekend!!! here are some pictures of the boys..

Coy's 2nd birthday party!!

2009-08-04T18:02:00.000-07:00

It's official my big boy is 2 years old!! he turned 2 on thursday but we celebrated his birthday on saturday with family!! it was beautiful out, everyone had a great time.. Coy didn't last long opening presents so i did most of the present opening :) i didn't mind!! He LOVES trucks he was SO excited when he got the trucks.. it was too funny.. then my parents card that they got him sang the Little Einsteins theme song and he was in heaven.. too cute.. well i posted some pictures i hope you enjoy.. they just grow so fast :(

Scraping the house

2009-06-25T19:34:00.000-07:00

So we decided that we needed to repaint some of our house.. after some hail damage to the paint we thought this would be a perfect time to just go ahead and scrape some of the paint then our neighbor has a spray painting thing so it won't take long so that is awesome.. Here are some pictures of Coy helping Dad scrape the paint.. He was actually alot of help he was doing alot of picking of the paint and was a SUPER helper. we want to finish it up this weekend and have it painted by the 4th of July.. Well i hope eveyone has a great 4th of July..

We are still here!!

2009-06-06T05:54:00.000-07:00

I know isn't that crazy i went 2 weeks without a my computer..:) well the boys are growing like crazy and already are fighting :) Lets see here what are some updates on us.. well i turned 26 on may 25th that was exciting :) My friend Tiffany and I are coaching 18 and under softball for rising city that has been alot of fun.. We take Coy into Childrens on Monday for one of his moles to get examined..(prolly nothing but dr. wanted to make sure and get it checked out) A month from today we take Jett into Childrens to the Helmet Clinic to see if we need to get him a helmet for his flat head.. We have been working on getting it better before then.. but we are doing all we can.. Well i hope this find everyone doing well and i hopefully will get better at updating this.. here are some pictures of the boys..

Coy was just getting over Influenza and ear infection and then the monday after easter we took Jett in to have him tested for RSV which luckly came back Negative.. even though the doctor was shocked it was negative..

The friday before easter we got Coy's first haircut and he HATED it!! the Saturday before Easter we went to the Awesome Rising City Easter egg hunt.. Coy had so much fun (pictures ) then on Easer sunday.. We did not attend church as Jett had a horrible cough still and Coy wasn't 100% we loaded up and went to Marquette to my aunt and uncles for lunch and a little hunt for Jackson and Coy then we took off to head to heath's grandma's for supper.. It was a great weekend but busy..

This was Jett at two months and when we went into his 2 month check up we were surprised at how much he weighed we knew he was goin to weigh more than Coy did at 2 months but didn't realize that much more.. Coy was 13lbs 12 oz's at his 2 month and Jett was you ready for this? 15lbs 2 oz's geez what a pig :) Our doctor asked us if we were feeding him buttermilk :) Then he said well at least you are raising some big boys to play football for the huskers :) Heath is already practicing football with Coy it is to cute.. well take care and it will prolly be awhile before. i post again as i'm really busy this month with weddings..

Sleep!!

2009-02-23T09:46:00.000-08:00

I just can't believe and i'm prolly getting ahead of myslef and it will end soon but Jett has been sleeping great the last four days.. He goes down at 7:30 and usually sleeps until about 2:30 but saturday night he slept frm 7:30 to 4:30 i couldn't beleive it i had to go check on him.. My body don't know what to do getting so much sleep.. but i will take it as much as he wants to give me.. expecially since i have a busy month of march ahead of me..that is all i just had to brag a little bit now it will prolly end but at least i got a couple good nights of sleep :)

Baptism

2009-02-22T17:59:00.000-08:00

Saturday night was Jett's Baptism.. It was a good time.. My aunt and uncle that live in Minnestoa came back to be Jett's Godparents. which meant alot..Jett was born on my aunt Peggys birthday so it was fun to have her as his godmother :) Everything went great!! Even though our son was not named after any saints!!! The priest wasn't happy about that but sometimes shit happens :) After baptism we had everyone over to our house for soup and sandwiches and CAKE!! YUMMIE!!!! the kids ran around and played together is was great having them get together as they don't see each other much.. Coy who does not like going to gathering thought it was so fun to have people over at our house. His territory :) Well that is all for now i will try to update more often i was busy for a week with my nephew here and for everyone who don't know my sister got out of the hospital on tuesday and Nathan got out of the hospital Saturday and doing good they are at my folks house!! I do have a busy month ahead of me so i'm sure march is goin to fly..

Coy and Jett

Coy at 18 months old

Jett at 1 month old..

Well sorry i haven't posted in a long time i always seem to not update this but I update Facebook with pictures ALL the Time.. so you should all just get that :) well as you can tell in the picutures the boys are getting bigger.. Jett turned 1 month old on the 29th and Coy turned 18 months old on the 30th.. They are growing so fast.. Coy still loves to give Jett kisses all the time.. and will go into his room when Jett is sleeping and point in the the crib and say Jett.. I'm ready for it to get nice out so we can go outside to play and go on walks.. so i can lose this fat.. grrrr...

Also this year has not been a good one for us.. as most of you know my sister was diagnosed with cancer again for the 3rd time.. she is also pregnant.. so Monday night she goes in at 7:30 pm to get induced at 34 weeks and then the following tuesday the 10th she will go in for surgery on herself.. she will be a little under after this surgery but not as bad as the first time.. so if everyone could pray for her and my little nephew we would love it.. I totally believe in the power of Prayer!!! well i hope everyone a had a great weekend and is going to enjoy the super bowl of the cardinals winning :) i feel like cheering on the underdog :)

The life with Two kiddos!

He will hide things and then lift his hands and go Where is it?? so he does this with his paci under the couch and any toy it is so funny.. Also i have a little hunter in the process.. Coy was just taught how to blow heaths duck whistle and so now Coy blows the ducks in.. Here are a couple pictures.. for everyone to enjoy..

The Life of livin with a Hunter!

2008-11-20T12:23:00.000-08:00

Ok so some of these Pictures are a little graphic but i couldn't help but to post cause Coy was just lovin everything thing to do with both the deer and the gross skinning part of it.. he just laughed as they did it.. it was cracking me up.. It looks like he may take after his father in the hunting department.. So i hope everyone is having a safe hunting season and if you don't want to see a skinned deer please do not look at last photo..

The Joy of raising Children!

2008-11-17T15:39:00.001-08:00

Ok sometimes i just can't stop laughing at my son.. And when he knows i'm mad at him he still manages to make me smile and laugh.. Here are a couple examples.. when trying to put him to bed and he just keeps picking at you and laughing you just want to be like GO TO SLEEP but you just smile and laugh cause they are just so fun.. Then today when he came up to me laughing and i notice something up his nose.. He had preceeded to put a yogurt covered Raisin up his nostril. Some how in the time he was eatting his snack he decided it would be a good idea to shove one up his nose.. Boy did he get mad when i took it out.. Well anyways i just had to share a little bit on how ORNERY my son is.. Plus it has been awhile since i posted. Take care..

Coy and his Big Boy Room!

2008-11-06T12:52:00.000-08:00

Well Coy has officially moved to his big boy room.. It is not completly done yet but its good enough for him to sleep in.. He has taken Two naps and has had one night in his big boy room.. He is still a little scared to be in a new room and new bed.. So we have been doing a couple different things to get him to go back to putting himself to sleep like he use to.. but as of now the only thing that works is to lay with him until he falls asleep.. which i really did not want to start but he is so little and it is scary back there all by himself.. So after about a week we will try new things.. I tried the just putting him back to bed after he gets out we did this for 40 mins then i decided its his first night i don't want to scare him out of even wanting to be back there.. but he was so cute.. (hard not to laugh) So if anyone has any GREAT!! ideas on how to let him put himself to sleep it would be great!! Other than getting him to fall asleep he sleeps GREAT! first night anyways he slept from 8:15 until 6.. We will see how tonight goes.. He is a picture of him on his bed.. We are still getting a headboard, dresser, bed skirt and someother stuff for in there once it is all done i will post a new picture..

As daddy was out in S. Dakota Hunting we went back to giltner..Friday we met Grandma for some shopping in G.I. then saturday we went and Watched Our Cousin Danielle play volleyball but Coy feel asleep watching it.. Girl sports are pretty boring to watch :) Then Off I went to have a girls Day/night out with my friends.. We watched the Huskers WIN at one girls house then we went to a Winery in St. Paul.. (beautiful) Which is a picture below of all of us there..

Then on Sunday we went to the Pumpkin Patch in St. Libory with My sister and nephew jackson and my mom The boys had so much fun.. Coy loved riding the horses and playing with the pumpkins.. After we were done there we went back to grandma's and pappa's and carved pumpkins.. Coy wasn't sure at first but then loved it.. It was a busy weeknd that made it fly by.. Well i hope everyone had a great weekend and take care and enjoy some pics i posted..

Hey everyone sorry it has taking me so long to post a new blog.. I was being lazy about downloading pictures.. So i just did some pictures of Coy.. He is growing so much and is becoming so much fun to be around :) well hope all is well with everyone.. Everything is going good here.. We are now 28 weeks preggo so the baby will be here before we know it.. I better get busy with Christmas present shopping :)

Coy before we were about to go on our daily walk it was chill this morning so he had his stocking cap on..and then his favorite thing to chew on his toothbrush.. (what a great thing to use when teething)

This is the true side of Coy he is so Ornery :)

Why do we spend money on Toys when they only want to play with a box :)

Coy must have had a really busy day on Monday cause he fell asleep while eatting Lunch.. Too cute not to post :)

My New Tent

2008-10-01T15:16:00.000-07:00

I wanted to show you my new tent.. I always played with a Thomas tent at my Grandma and Grandpa Obermeiers house so my mommy and daddy thought i needed one for home.. I play in this alot and i love it even more when my daddy chases me in the tent.. Well i just wanted to show you all my new favorite toy :)

Gardening!!

2008-09-29T07:33:00.001-07:00

On Friday Coy wanted to help daddy out in the garden.. Coy loved it he even picked some things out for dad.. (that weren't ready to be picked)

Boys will be Boys

2008-09-21T17:12:00.002-07:00

Coy got his first bad black eye today.. if you look close enough he has a cut on his lip also.. We were over at Heath's Grandmas house and Coy discovered the stairs and was on his way up them when i went in to get him he fell down and hit his head on the wood around the door.. His lip was bleeding and instant black eye.. He didn't cry long so that just shows me he is a tough boy.. I couldn't believe this happened right the day after i was so frustrated at the way he has been acting i was like great people prolly thinks i did this to him.. But i guess its nice it happened where lots of people where :) I guess that just proves Boys will be Boys and that is what makes them tough :)

Stressed

2008-09-20T18:11:00.000-07:00

ok I need another blog of venting.. So as babycenter would say i have a "spirted Toddler" Sometimes i'm in tears asking what happened to my easy going happy little guy.. He has just been SO crabby and not happy for awhile now.. He throws fits and screams out of the blue.. I don't normally mind it i just ignore it when we are home but when we are in public it is so bad.. I guess i just really hate it when people STARE.. What the Hell ( excuse my lang.) do they want me to do about it.. he is 1 i can't put him in timeout yet and even if i could spank him in public he wouldn't understand it.. SO i don't know what they want me to do about it .. just let him win and have his way NO i don't want a spoiled brat.. Thursday i was in columbus and we were at the new walgreens and there were 4 nosey elderly ladies and my son didn't get his way for something just started screaming.. they just stared and whispered to each other i was so pissed i was like WHAT.. I'm sorry but if the elderly wants us to respect them then they need to respect us.. I'm sure they were like oh my gosh that woman can't even handle her one kid and she is pregnant.. you know what.. I feel i'm a pretty Damn good mom so i don't know what they want from me.. I just bawl alot of times when my son does this because i don't know why he is doing it and i can't help him i don't know if it is just my hormones or what but i seem to cry alot anymore cuase he does these fits a lot.. like tonight we tried to go up and eat supper at the bar and i had to get a to go box and put my food in it and left to go home wiht him he was just out of control nothing would make him happy.. And of course i'm always thinkgin i need to leave cause i'm pissing people off cause my son is scraming and throwing a fit.. and like i said before they just look at you and i guess i'm the only person in the world wiht a child that screams and throws fits cause no one understands it.. well ok i'm done venting and rambling on and on ..

BUBBLES

2008-09-14T15:10:00.000-07:00

Everyone has to Love BUBBLES!!! Coy had so much fun playing with the bubbles.. Our dog Dutch even came over by Coy and was trying to pop them with his mouth.. Coy would just laugh.. We are having a much better couple of days as his one tooth has broke through :)

Bubbles!!!

Have to Love Kids!!

2008-09-11T18:30:00.001-07:00

Ok so as you can see in the pictures that My child can be such an "angel" but yet the "devil" :) He SO has my attitude!! but there is also a lot of his father in him too.. The last week has been from HELL.. He is teething which you would think we were done with for a while since he already has 12 teeth but no we have more coming.. Also when he has to go days without seeing his dad he becomes more stubborn than ever, and since it is Husker Harvest Days this week Heath has been gone most this week.. So like I said before Coy and I have been butting heads :) Don't get me wrong i LOVE my little man and can't wait to meet this other little one.. But as a parent everyone has days where they just want to pull there hair out of their heads.. Coy goes from Laughing and watching Mickey Mouse Clubhouse to just complete screaming and no way to calm him down so i just hope we have a better day tomorrow :) So i just felt like i needed to vent alittle bit and hoping that things get better :)

2008-09-11T18:25:00.000-07:00

Now look at him the "devil" (heheeh)

I Knpw I'm 25 with a minivan ;( but i do have to say i love it (shocker i know) But we have to do the most logic things with us about to have two kids under the age of 18 months we will need it and the automatic doors are nice also.. Coy loves to look out the window at everything. We went and test drove some last monday.. Then we decided which color we wanted and they found it so we got to pick it up on friday.. It is a new Toyota Sienna.. So if anyone is looking for a new minivan this is a great van so i would go for a Toyota :)..

Well we just got back from going to see the doctor for Coy's 1 year check up.. he weighes 29 pounds and 31 inches long.. Big Boy!!! Poor thing had to get 5 shots today so he is napping right now.. Doctor said he was looking good and staying right on track.. Yesterday we went over to see friends or ours little baby Micah and he was just so tiny.. Coy got a kick out of him.. he just keep tickling his feet.. and he would then destory Trisha and Chris's house.. As for our little one we had a check up last week and baby is doing good. is moving around alot.. We also found out a couple weeks ago that my sister is also pregnant.. So that was exciting the babies will be 11 weeks apart.. My sister always wanted us to be preggo at that same time so that was pretty exciting to find out we were..

Hello!!

2008-07-29T11:07:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone.. I just thought maybe since everyone i know has a blog that maybe i should start one.. This would be easier than sending out so many emails to everyone.. I know i check my friends blogs daily.. Well we are pretty busy at our house here in Rising City.. Heath has been really busy with replanting due to this wonderful Nebraska weather.. As for me i'm enjoying staying at home with our beautiful little boy Coy.. He will turn one on July 30th.. And we are waiting for the arrival of our second one at the beginning of the year!! so i will sure be on my toes but it is all worth it, children are an amazing gift.. I will try to keep this updated but as people know that have me on myspace and facebook it takes me awhile to update :) But i will try to be better!! Take care everyone and God Bless!
