Skylee Mikell Wright born September 14, 2018 she weighed 6.66 oz. 

Skylee was born at Davis Hospital with ada doctor than Waylon and Briggs. 

My pregnancy was really easy with Skye. I probably didn't notice half the symptom's because I was always chasing Briggs around like a crazy person!she is currently 21 months old 

I call skylee Peanut one. Or just one...or THE ONE. And I say she is my favorite friend lol a common name my dad calls her is Honey roast. 

Peanut definitely has brought a different sweet vibe into the house. She has been mellow and super super sweet, up until she hit 15 months then her attitude and sassiness has definitely started to hit!! She has smitten all of us here. Her brothers just love her to pieces! Briggs can be the best older brother to her and then they can also fight like cats and dogs. For the most part they are best buddies. 

Skylee can dance!!! She loves to boogie!! She initally started with a song from the "Ninja Kids" and now all forms of music have her shaking her hips and putting her hands in the air! It's absolutely the cutest thing I have ever seen! She loves to good my phone and dance while the music is playing. She loves  to act like she is singing as well. So she tries to lip synce while she jives!! 

Skylee loves to jump on the tramp! She is so so good at it too! She could jump all day long if I'd let her! She loves to do bum drops and summer saults. We have a swing in

the backyard she loves to play on. She loves to play with Briggs. She loves to climb on Waylon the most and when I am not around and clings to Boston until she is comfortable somewhere. Each brother plays a special role to her! She is very much a mommy's girl. She does love daddy bit has had to warm up to him quite a bit for some reason. Every day skylee enjoys getting her hair done and getting dressed. Daddy is always the first person she wants to show how beautiful she looks! 

She loves to talk on the phone! She always wants to call daddy while he is at work and she blabs and blabs. It's absolutely hilarious. Skylee is starting to form good words and needs to be potty trained. So I need to do that with her. 

We love this little girl so dang much!!

Briggs BRONCO Wright born 3/16/17 

Briggs is 3 years old! 

Briggs was named Bronco after his grandpa Billy. 

Briggs is absolutely the cutest craziest funniest kid! He is extremely  athletic and coordinated.  Like I have never seen a kid so crazy at the age of 3! He started walking at 8 months old and has never slowed down. Briggs has always had a temper when angry and very hard to calm down! Funny thing, when I was pregnant  with him I and wasn't aware yet I took a pre workout called Badass...this has to be part of why he is the way he is! Lol

Briggs is so incredibly smart, but has had a speech delay and stutters quite often when he gets super excited. Words are coming really well finally and he is so flipping cute when he talks! 

"Me want....me want....no me know what me want!" -brigfs 3 years old when asked what he wanted in Maverick for his treat. He always say me want...me do...me jump...me happy! Everything right now is me!  Briggs loves with fierceness. He love his family like crazy. He is becoming such a cute big brother to watch out for skylee and make sure she is ok. He can play so well with Boston and Waylon, but the moment they make him mad ...watch out!!! He WON'T back down. No matter what they do to him he keeps coming back harder and more angry than before! 

Briggs is the most athletic and coordinated child I have ever seen. He flips, he rolls, he jumps, he can do it all! He started riding a hoverboard at 2 and front flips on the tramp right when he turned 3. We just got him into tumbling and he is already getting the hang of a back handspring. I can't wait to watch him him sports. He is going to be a beast! At this point he is our most fierce child. We will see how he does as he grows up...I am curious to see if the nerves and anxieties hit him or if he just dismiss them. 

The one thing that drives is nuts about Briggs is when he is tired he picks your skin! He will fold Zachs ears I'm half and pick at them! He picks my elbows and scratches me. If I ever have a scab he will pick it non stop! When he is tired he usually goes right up to Zach and gets on his back or where ever and immediately grabs his ears. Zach and I used to have to mummy ourselves in a blanket at night cause he wouldn't stop picking at our arms and face.i am curious to see if he does this with his wife in the future 😂

Briggs is determined and stubborn. He will be an amazing force in this world and I can't wait to see who grows up to be. We love him so so much!

Waylon Neal Wright was born March 26, 2014!! 

He is 6 years old!!! 

If there ever was a mini Zach, at this point, Waylon is that. (More on this in a bit)

Waylon was born at 39 weeks at Lakeview hospital and it was a breeze. My pregnancy was a breeze and delivery was a breeze. Waylon was a pretty calm baby....up until about 2 months and all of a sudden he QUIT eating! He refused to nurse, he didn't like bottles...Zach couldn't feed him, grandma's couldn't feed him....the ONLY way he would eat was on my chest fading me in a carrier with a bottle while I stood up!!!  Right there I should have known he would be a stubborn one 😂 so we switched to a bottle and fed him that way for am extremely long time. Waylon became a mommy's boy and didn't want anything to do with anyone else really. He did like Papa Neal and would be with Zach if I wasn't around, but if I was in the room it was always mommy he wanted!  It didn't help that he got so many ear infections! So so many...and with all the ear infections came antibiotics and with all those he developed CDiff bland got extremely sick. He ended up in the hospital for a few days to get that under control. He got so dehydrated he could have died. It was super scary! So we got tubes in his ears and to this day he still has one in his right ear. Hopefully it will come out soon! 

Waylon was able to go to preschool at my mom's and go with cousins Hyrum and Owen. He definitely isn't social and hasn't been social how whole life. Waylon is so excited to do everything Boston has done...so when it was time for preschool he was ready! Although he didn't talk much to kids there. When it was time for SOCCER he was ready! His first season as a 4 year old ..he killed it! Just like Boston did. Waylon was star of the show and scored at least 5+ goals every single game! He also played T-ball and was really good at that. He only did that for one season...and he played one more year of soccer and just turned a 180 and didn't really enjoy it all that much...so soccer has fizzled out...although I think he would be an amazing soccer player. 

Waylon started wrestling at 4! His first singlet was a yellow "don't tread on me" with a rattle snake!! He also had a big Mohawk with a tail he used to call his rattle! Waylon was

 a beast when he started wrestling and has done really well. We just did a few tournaments with him his first year and he usually was aggressive and fiesty. This year as a five year old he learned so many crazy moves that Boston has taught him. Bar half, side cradle and a cow catcher. He has 

beautiful technique!! His aggression isn't the best right now because he thinks about everything so deeply. So as well as he did this year, he also struggled a little mentally and with avgression...but once that clicks for him he will be a total beast because his skills are so high! I can't wait to see what he does with wrestling! He just started at Sanderson too and that will be good for him! 

He loves to tumble! We might do a comp  with  him. He is really good at it and almost has his back handspring down! 

Now back to what I said about him being like Zach, he is a DEEP thinker!! So so deep. It actually causes him a lot of anxiety. Due to that we are trying again  for kindergarten this next year. It was a rough year for Waylon socially and mentally so we pulled him out before he got too far along. Waylon loves to be with his brothers, but doesn't like  making friends. So we are working on that with him! 

Waylon loves bugs, he loves camping, hiking, fishing. He is a science guy. He could look at bugs and find worms for hours. Waylon has loved dinosaurs as well and collected so many. He isn't as into sports at this point in his life, but does love competition  and playing them sometimes. Waylon has a slight lisp when he speaks and has said some funny words as he has grown up. He is extremely  witty when he speaks and jokes. 

Something I never want to forget about waylon is when he was 2-4 he called Christmas "smicris" it was the world's cutest thing! 

We love this little guy so much! 

Waylon current weighs 49 lbs and is in the 75% in weight and 52% in height.

Boston is 8 years old!

Boston is our oldest child. He is 8 years old, in 2nd grade and currently homeschooled due to the Corona Virus (covid 19) "pandemic"

Boston was born July 26th 2011 in Hendrson Nevada. His first year and a half of life was extremely  exciting due to him being our first child  and also his kidney, ureter and bladder problems. He had 8 procedures done to fix it!!! All ending with an 8 hour reconstruction  surgery at primary children's hospital when he was 15 months old. 

Boston was such a good baby. He slept well, ate well and turned into an extremely  hard 3  year old full of emotions! A lot of his troubles came because he was and still is 

EXTREMELY  bright! He learned to speak at a very early age and was speaking full sentences  by 18 months old, he was potty trained at 20 months. (Crazy stuff with all kidney issues) Boston was and still is really tall and mature  for his age. Even as a tiny toddler he just seemed "older" . He always has been treated 2-3 years older than he is! It has some advantages,  but ultimately  isn't fair to him. Zach and I have to remain ourselves all the ti,e to treat him as his age. Boston has always been extremely  coordinated  and strong. I'll never forget the nurses telling me when he was first born after his surgery  how strong he was. That has never changed! He is strong, smart, athletic,  and handsome! Boston has everything going for him. His emotions are of his age, and his actions and features  are of someone older. With being so intellectual  and big it's hard for him to emotionally  keep up. Zach and I have spent endless hours trying to figure out how to help him fight through anxieties and self doubts he may have so he can be the very best he can be! 

Boston started soccer at the age of 3 and decimated  the field. He was always the best on his team. He also started Tball at 3 and rocked that too. He ended both those sorts at the age of 6 even though comp teams wanted him  already! He started flag football at 5 and fell in love. He also started wrestling at 5 and took off in that sport. He started tackle football at 7 and has played 2 seasons of that. He is an animal  when it comes to sports. If he could play basketball during wrestling season I know he would be dominant due to his size ability  to shoot the ball. We have chosen to push him  into football and wrestling. He has a love and passion for football and is an incredible  wrestler. He ha also been mowing the lawn by himself since he was 6 and is dang good st it! He loves to mow! 

Wrestling accomplishments: 2 time superstate  champ...superstar runner up. 2 time freestyle state champ and Greco champ. Boston has plaver at many national tournaments  and is currently a  wrestling at Sanderson Wrestling  Academy.  I can't wait to see how he keeps progressing!  His best friends there are mckoy Evan's and diesel masacro. 

He played tackle football as a 7 year old with viewmonet Vikings  and was the youngest  one on his team! Not the smallest however! Boston could play any position  he was assigned.  He knew every play and was amazing.  He never got a great opportunity  for a touchdown,  although if given the chance he would have scored a few...but he was the only kid on the team who could open holes and block for his quarterback so that was the most important  thing for him to do. When he was 8 we decided to play in Kaysville  and have zach coach. It was the perfect  fit for him! He was the leader of the team. He really learned to tackle well this last season. He hit the hardest, worked the hardest and ran the ball the best. Anytime the team needed a first down boss could get it. Boston was an excellent player for zach to coach and proved how well he could behave even when daddy coached. We can't wait to see what happens this year!

Boston is a special boy. He can make friends with anyone wherever  he is at. He can talk to adults and play with babies. He is am excellent  big brother who I know if a disaster strikes he will be there for his siblings.  For only being 8, I can't believe  how responsible  he is.  Boston loves WWE figures and toys. Between the 3 boys they gave 36 figures! He also has about 8 footballs! He loves to play football in the yard with me on a team. We go back and forth down the field. I love playing that game with him. I could play it for hours, but it's hard with all the other kids to get too much time. He is pretty patient  about it though. Boston is an a,amazing student. He is every teacher's favorite kid. They  all tell me that lol. Boston is content being hom during this pandemic he hasn't asked one time to play with a friend. He is happy here with his brothers. We have our moments but for the most part it is great. Boston was baptized in the LDS church at 8.  He loves his grandparents   and spending time with them. He has always had a special relationship  with papa neal. All my kids do.

Boss is very sensitive  to emotions around him. If I am mad, he knows it and becomes emotional. He can read people and generally  knows  how to act to try and make the situation  better. Sometimes he doesn't know when to stop being obnoxious and we have to to get mad. It's normal though. He is starting to get some teen attitude  and I am not ready for that! He also wants to be or see anything on tv. So if its football he is not stop football. Mma he is all that...sandlot he all of a sudden acts like benny. It's quite hilarious! 

Some of my favorite things to do with him are play catch and "together on a team" wrestle with him...soon he will be too strong! I love playing card games with him when we can and I absolutely  love listening  to music eith him. He can memorize  a song after only hearing  it a time or two and I love singing along with him. I love him so dang much. I can't wait to see who he grows up to be. 

We have 4 kids!

Here goes nothing...I want to write and create this blog to always remember when my kids were young..and my feelings as a mom and wife. I have never been able to stick to writing and keeping a journal, but these are precious moments I will never get again. I feel I am already too late in doing this, but a start is a start and I love my kids so much. I want to remember this. I don't have the best memory, so if it's not written down I know it will bite me in the butt in the future. Zach and I married March 13, 2010. We moved to Vegas and worked for his dad for about 18months. Moving back to Utah November 2011 Boston Zachary Wright was born July 26th 2011 (38 weeks) He was born at 8:00 am 7lbs 12 oz. Blonde hair and was born on Henderson Nevada. He was our first and so so exciting! He had surgery on day 2 of his life with some kidney, bladder and ureter issues. Waylon Neal Wright was born March 26th 2014.(39 weeks) He was born about 11 am and weighted 7 lbs 4 oz. He was born with tons of blonde hair that formed a natural Mohawk! He still has his Mohawk today at 6 years old (all boys do) he was born in Bountiful Utah at Lakeview hospital Briggs Bronco Wright was born March 16, 2017 (39 weeks) . I can't remember his exact time. It was around lunch time. He weighed 7 lbs 13 oz. He had blonde hair. Briggs pregnancy was horrible l, he put me in pain! I almost missed my epidural with him due to trying to be tough. So they were playing catch up on my pain which is partly why I don't remember the time! Lakeview hospital Skylee Mikell Wright was born September 14th (39 weeks) 2018. I don't know the time, it was afternoon. She weighed 6 lbs 6 oz and had a little darker blonde hair! She didn't look much like her brothers at birth! I had a new Dr and new hospital with her. Davis hospital. This will end my first post. I want to start writing weekly to update everything but over the next few posts I will write about each child and get them up to date. Boston is 8! Waylon is 6! Briggs is 3! Skylee is 20 months! We are currently in quarentine due to Covid 19. It's a weird time.

Pajama Workout Mom!

Hi! My name is Mikell Wright, I am a mom on a mission to find "me" again. Not that I have lost who I am, but more to bring out the parts of "me" that I have missed most these last few years. I have two beautiful sons and an AMAZING husband! Boston who is 4 and Waylon who is 2. Zach is my husband who is always rooting for me and doing anything he can do to make me happy! My boys sure keep me busy and occupied at all times during the day! I love it! I love being a mom and I love everything that comes with it...well almost everything! Everything except this body that has formed after having 2 kids, being overly addicted to sweets and not taking enough time for "me"! Every mom needs her "me" moments. This is why I am creating this blog. I want to help myself and anyone else who wants to join me on a journey to get back into shape and show off my mom fashion in my sweats and pajamas!! Let's be real...that is all I wear about 98% of the time 😂 I want to share my exercises, progress, meals, ups and downs of the beautiful life I live. If you are a mom like me who is struggling with that extra weight, YOU ARE NOT ALONE!! I am here too and we CAN get back into shape and do little things for us to help us feel better! Even if it's a quick 10 minute workout here and there! I am not a personal trainer, but I have an extended athletic background and will push myself to achieve results, no matter how fast or slow this comes! Feel free to share with your friends or family. I want to reach as many moms who may need an uplift in their day! There are so many great workouts on Pinterest or the Internet, but all seem to have the "perfect" body picture attached with them. I find myself viewing these and then criticizing myself to be more like them. To have that perfect body would be great, and is highly desired, but it takes time, effort, and commitment so don't get down on yourselves. I will post my workouts with my very imperfect body so hopefully more people can relate and feel good about what they are doing! It's not about how you look, but how you feel! It's not about what the scale says, but about how your clothes fit!!
