Up to 53/365 - FEB

53/365: This little smarty pants has learned out to collapse the edge of his pack and play and climb out. We found him playing in his room this morning. I put him to bed Sunday night and I heard some scuffling and figured I would let him play and would find him asleep on the floor somewhere. I peeked him the room and he was half asleep and popped his head up. He had climbed back into his pack and play to go to sleep. I had to snuggle this little smarty pants once I woke him.
 52/365: The kids playing so cute together. Pres was so worried about her runny nose because Connor doesn't like to be around her when her nose is yucky. She is always so cautious about it. Poor girl. This is Dev's Buck from this season. I can't believe I let it in the house...but really it looks great!
 51/365: His smile is super contagious. Don't tell me you didn't grin seeing this pic of him :)
 50/365: Oh my little girly girl. I could watch her play all day.
 49/365: All the superheros ready line up ready to save someone's day....
 48/365: I love watching the Olympics. There is just something about watching the best athletes in the world compete. Sad watching the American Girls Hockey Team loose the gold.
 47/365: It was a nice day...nice and muddy. The kids were playing outside and she got stuck in the mud. It took me a while just to get her little boot out. I doubt her lesson was learned. Mud is too much fun.

Happy LOVE Day




 Happy Valentine's Day from our Family to yours....

 One of our favorite Valentine's traditions is setting up this tepee. We set it up with lights and the kids get to sleep in it. They have looked forward to it the past 3 years.

up to 46/365 pic a day

 46/365: Keisha had their third little girl on the 15th. We ran up Sunday morning to greet this cutie pie. She is a little piece of Heaven. So grateful she is here and safe. She is too sweet and adorable! Good work Keisha and Bryce! Presli immediately bonded with this sweet dog, Bella. She now wants her own little dog to snug and play with her. I wouldn't be surprised if she does break her daddy. ;)

45/365: Pomerelle trip with Brenan. We don't get to see him near enough.
 44/365: Me and my Valentine. I am so grateful and blessed to have such a loving companion and father to my children. Not only does he love and support us but he pushes us to continue to grow and be our best selves. I consider it one of his many talents. I hope you all had a Happy Valentine's Day!
 43/365: Connor and his loot. Valentine's day is probably one of his favorite holidays...I give credit to our Valentine's day 2 years ago when I went all out. He is always comparing that Valentine's day to the rest. I love it that he looks forward to it every year.
 42/365: Pres and her cookie so made at her first Valentine party. She told me all day "I LOOOOVE sprinkles!"
 41/365: Writing on their Valentine's for Pre-school. They were so so excited!
 40/365: Quick get together with cousins in Brigham City. Fun to play and get ice-cream

"Do you want to build a snowman?"

IT SNOWED! It snows here but doesn't stick for very long. We actually woke up to sticky snow...perfect for building a snowman. You better believe we took advantage of it!
 Connor rolled and rolled. Presli pack and packed. He finally came together and we used up most the snow in front of our house. Connor and Pres sang and sang "...do you want to build a snowman?..." over and over. Connor decided "ski" would be the perfect name. He became quite attached.





 After building "SKI" Dad helped with the BIG snowballs. The snow was so sticky and heavy Presli wanted to help dad lift the pieces to build a giant snowman.
 She let me know that its was "...just too heavy." lol!
FUN full day of snow. We can now say our winter is complete.

Up to 39/365 FEB

 This week I wanted to focus more on my children than on "things". They are my every day....even though we are sooo ready for some warm weather I need to remind myself how much I do adore these little human beings. I am so blessed.

39/365: Playing in the snow with Race
 38/365: His little smurk
 37/365: Pres loves her hair brushed...she has a pretty awesome dad
 36/365: Little Superman wanted to wear this cape like his older brother. Man he is growing up too fast. I love how much he wants to do "grown-up" little kid things. Pretty dang cute!
 35/365: Princess sleeping with her princesses. I think she is going through a growth spurt. She has been tired a lot lately.
 34/365: This kid has a way of talking us into getting him treats.
 33/365: Dancing around with her favorite bracelet.
