christmas card time

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

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..

Harvest time!!

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!!

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 :)

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!!

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

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..
