Tent Day

Auntie Kimmi got the kids there very own tent for Christmas. We haven't played with it since then. The kids were so excited when I got it out. I was even going to let Aiden sleep in it but then he kept getting in and out of the tent. So only the big kids got to sleep in it. This tent is there new favorite thing






This is how I found Kael


And this is how I found Emma  (:

Kael's Birthday

My Big excited 6 year old!!  ):




We went to his class and brought powdered donuts (that is what he picked out)  Here he is with Nana and his messy face


Auntie Mimi and Mylee cruising around the classroom


Aiden enjoying the treats (:


Kael went right up to Emma and gave her a hug and introduced her to his class it was so cute.  I love the pic of Emma she is trying to be so careful, grownup, and serious.  She loved going to Kaels class.  He was so sad when we finally left.  I worked that night so Josh, my mom and Aunt Mimi took him to Mcdonalds for dinner.  Then Josh gave him one of his presents a game for the PSP he thought that was so cool.


My sweet little boy.  Is just so smart.  Anything that I spell out to anyone he knows right away what it is.  No more spelling things out when trying to be sneaky!!  He has begun to read and that is just amazing to me.  He loves animals so much.  He is really into sharks right now, but he will always be kind to any sort of animal that comes his way.  He still wants to be a Police Man or a Prophet when he grows up.  I think they are both great things to aspire to be.  He loves playing Mario Cart on the Wii, he is pretty good at it also.  He loves to learn things about animals.  His favorite show is the Bindi the Jungle girl show, he would watch it over and over again.  He really is such a good helper to his mommy-oops I mean mom (:  He is a great big brother even though it can be tough being the big brother.    His testimony is growing everyday, I love that I get to see it grow, everyday is a new question about Jesus or heaven.   He really tries to be good all the time, but its just so hard to be good ALL the time!  (:  He is the sweetest little boy ever.  I am just in love with this little man.  I see such an awesome person in him, that I get to help mold and try to make better.  I thank my Heavenly Father every night for this little blessing in our lives.  I am just so grateful to Heavenly Father for letting me have and raise this little angel.  He makes our family so much better.  

I love you more than you will ever know Kael, you are one of our greatest blessings, thank you for choosing us for your family.

A beautiful day at the park

My sweet little flower

Emma is my little mommy

Feeding the ducks, then feeding Aiden


My big handsome boy ):




I would be nice if all my days were just a walk in the park.  Lately it seems like it is just getting crazier and not any easier.  A week ago I took Emma and Mylee to the doctor Emma had a really high fever and Mylee was really fussy.  Turned out they both had ear infections.  The following tuesday Aiden had a high fever and would throw up after every time he coughed.  It was horrible.  I took him to the doctor and he had an ear infection and they think he has pneumonia (I don't think he does) but they heard all kinds of gunk in his lungs.  Every day last week it seemed like we had something to do.  Kael had his birthday and I now have a six year old, who calls me mom now.  He is to old to call me mommy (he told me)  ):  I was kind of emotional on his birthday, partly because I feel a little overwhelmed due to so much to do and not enough time to do it, but partly because Kael is such a little man now.  He loves getting smarter and figuring out things and learning how to play all different kinds of games.  He just loves to learn and grow.  He is no longer my little baby that was born a month early with all kinds of issues, he is now my big healthy little man!  I am  balling as I write this!!  What a baby I am!!  I will have a whole post dedicated to the fun we had for his birthday.  That is another thing I have so much to blog about but so little time.  Blogging is the one thing that I am in love with doing it is my one and only hobby right now, and I hardly have time for it!!  AHH  This to shall pass, and when it does I will be sad because all my other little babies will want to call me mom instead of mommy!!

My daddy's birthday

We celebrated my dads birthday last Friday night.  here is the cake with ALOT of candles on it.

We played  Guitar Hero world tour all night long, well mostly my dad and Josh played, but it was a super fun night!

Blowing out ALL those candles




The smoke!!

I love my dad.  I can call him anytime ask him for anything and he will help me right out.  He has such a kind and generous heart.  He loves his family and all his grandkids.  He does so much for me and my family.  He is always willing to babysit them for me if I need to go to a meeting  or just out with my hubby.  He does not share his testimony often due to being incredibly shy but he has such a strong testimony, and has gone through things that I hope to never go through. (Losing a child) Even through all the trails and tribulations I always felt loved and I always knew of his love for our Heavenly Father.  I could not ask for a better father.  I am so grateful for him, and I love him so much!

Emma got another haircut

When Emma's hair gets too long it starts to get stringy no matter what I do to it!  So it was time for a haircut.  I loved the way Natalie cut my hair last time so I had her cut little miss Emma's hair

Goodbye stringy hair!!
Hello foxy little lady!!


I love it!!


She loves all the attention!  (:

Kael gets tubes!!

Ok my sweet little boy finally got tubes in his ears.  Hopefully now everything will be better!!  He had his appt on thurs January 15th he got tubes in both ears and had his adnoids removed.  We had to be there at 6:45 for his 7:45 appt.  Thankfully all the other kids spent the night at nana's house so I did not have to worry about them so early in the morning.  

Here he is getting ready to go he was not awake yet

Ok we are at the place and I think he is now a little nervous

Playing with a toy to keep his mind off what is to come (:

He hated the cap (:  I took this picture and he told me Don't send that to anyone!!  (:

Probably cause I am always taking and sending pics on my phone.  (:



The clown gown


It's over he's is very groggy, he hates the IV (who doesn't), and he is ready to go home!
