It is Great to be 8!!

I love blogging kids birthdays, and another one has come around. I started thinking a couple of days ago about doing Tyce's. Today our big - little man is 8! This is such an important birthday! He is so excited about being baptized. We have been talking about the big day and making plans. He is excited that it is going to be in Utah with so many family and friends.

Today we have plans for fun like the movies with cousins and going out to dinner (that is a present for me.) His party is on Monday, so the fun will last a couple of days.

Here are "The 8 Great Things I Love About Tyce"



1. He will still give his mom hugs and kisses (even in front of his friends.)

2. He loves his sisters (but teases the heck out of them)

3. I love the mole under his left eye.

4. He has a great sense of humor.

5. He is so active (the kid can't sit still)

6. He is persistant

7. He is easy to please (for example: he always will give me a break on making dinner - he would love to live on cereal.)

71/2. He looks so much like J.D. and he so darn cute!

8. He is my one and only BOY and I love him so much!!!

Happy Birthday Bubba!!!

The Blogger Hole

I fell into a deep, dark blogger hole!!! So as I have explained I tried to change my template and lost my stuff, but what I didn't mention is that I got a Blogger error code after doing this. The Blogger code lead me into the Blogger Hole. I couldn't get any other templates to post on my blog, and I was freaking out! (Just ask J.D. I do love blogging!!! and I started to go through withdrawals) I worked on it last night for an hour or so and again this morning for a couple of hours. I found myself on wacked out blogger message boards pleading for help. I was looking on crazy peoples blog with tips on how to solve the blogger codes (BX codes for short) and leaving them comments begging for some guidance. I was sending S.O.S. comments to Blogger Help. So this afternoon I sat down to check back on those crazy message boards and comment pages, and decided to give it one more shot...and look it worked. I don't really know what happen, if something I did fixed it or blogger fixed it or what, but I got this LeeLou template "to take" so I am not even going to mess with it again for awhile. (I will match Misty's blog for awhile, but those of you that check her blog might not even know because you quite checking it, as she has fallen off the blog wagon.) So I am so happy to say that I have struggled and scraped my way out, bloody knuckles and all, from the Blogger Hole. I hope that no one has to experience that. It is hell. Ha ha!!!

Construction Zone Ahead

So I was sick of my blog so I thought I would do a quickie change. Well I THOUGHT I knew what I was doing. Obviously not as I have lost all my stuff. Yes, I know I need to save it before I change it. Well, I thought I had, but NO. So now I have an ugly blog that I don't have time to fix. And I can't find a new template that I like, so if you have any suggestions on where to look. Let me know. (I have already checked Cutest Blog on the Block and LeeLou blogs)

Big Girl Turns Four!

Our little Asey is 4! Where do I start? She is such a unique piece of the Dockstader puzzle. She can have you laughing and frustrated all at the same time. We had a wonderful day yesterday. We had a family party. Aunt Terry's family came down and Grandma and Grandpa Baker are here. Her cousin Casey's birthday is on the 9th so we celebrated them together. She kept referring to herself as the birthday girl. She came back from the park and said "The birthday girl is back, so lets have cake." We love her so much and are so grateful she is part of our family! (Asey's whole life is digital so it was very easy to get pictures of her, so this is a long montage. Enjoy!)

Happy Birthday Bug!
