Moab..












We were so lucky to be able to go to Moab with Cory's family this spring...the girls LOVED it and Abby will always tell me "Mom, we need to go back to Moab." We stayed in such a nice little house with our own kitchen and 3 bedrooms! It was SO nice to get away and be with family. We rode the razors and Jake brought his jeep so we did some trails and left Londee and Wyatt with Cory's parents..Abby LOVED riding with uncle Nate and she didn't want to go home. Moab we will see you soon (hopefully)

Love my Abbs...

Oh my Abby girl..what a sweetheart she is! She is definitely our peacemaker, when I get upset she'll always tell me "Mom, be happy!" It's that simple..to be happy is OUR choice and basically she is telling me to get over it..I think we all need to hear that more!:) Abby is always thinking of others and she always wants to take cookies or Popsicles to her friends. Abby can be quiet at first but when she warms up to a situation she is such a leader and we've been told that numerous times from her teachers at school. We are so proud of our Abby Elle..she just started soccer and at first wasn't thrilled with the idea but she has started to warm up and she is our fast little runner! Go Abby!! Abby cracks us up she is always coming up with new demands and new ideas...she is a busybody and has to be doing something at all times. Abby loves going to see her Grammy's and aunts and uncles and she loves animals..especially cats! She gets hooked on different things and for the moment it is Tom & Jerry and Garfield...mom isn't so thrilled with this because of the example these naughty cartoons set for her. When Abby gets mad she will yell "I'm going to put you in a cage, sorry if you don't like it but I'm a bad guy and I can punch and kick you." NOT something we're proud of but we're working on controlling the anger. Abby's prayers are so sweet..she will bless things she wants to do like go to the park and go to Target and get some new band-aids and vitamins! Abby loves her jammies and is in them most the day (pick your battles!). We love our Abby Elle.

My Dedee!!!

Londee...what can I say about London?? She is the sunshine of our home! London makes us laugh so hard sometimes because she is always laughing! Cory always says "she's the funniest person she knows!" She does think she is pretty funny and her laugh is contagious so she gets everyone laughing at her pretty quick. Her nursery teachers say she is the energizer bunny and runs around the room the whole time smiling and laughing! She keeps us on our toes that's for sure..she tries to keep up with Abby and lately she has been repeating everything Abby says. She's like an echo..Abby will say "Mom, I want to go to Grammy's" London will chime in..."ya ya..Grammy's." London has to have her woody with her at ALL times and we finally glued his hat to his head because she would get so upset when it came off. Londee loves her brother and she is so good about helping him drink his bottle and getting him a blankie. Dedee has a blankie of her own that she HAS to sleep with and that poor things is hammered but she knows when I wash it and she will sit by the washing machine looking in the door and cry for an hour! She has fire and when she is mad WATCH OUT! We love our Dee and she brings SO much to our home.

A chunck of Heaven...

I'll make this quick because we ALL know I could go on and on about my boy. Our little Wyatt is the sweetest most calmest baby I have ever had ;). He seriously cries when he's hungry and that's IT..I hate writing this because I fear I will jinx myself but he has never had "fussy time" or been a grumpy baby. I love my little guy and his chunky long body!!! He is SO different than my girls and I love them each in such a different way. Heavenly Father knew I had my hands full and he seriously sent us a piece of Heaven...he calms me down when I'm about ready to loose it with all the mischief that goes on in our house right now. He loves his mommy and I hope that never changes..I love you my Wy guy.

I have a 4 year old!!!!!!















Happy Birthday to our little Miss Abby..this year we had a Toy Story play date party for little A! We invited the kids in the neighborhood and made vests from paper bags with sheriff badges, plastic hats and bandanas, we had a pin the badge on Woody and Buzz game, we also had a horse (it was really a donkey) pinata, woody cake, pizza, and Toy Story movie! It was so fun to watch the kids get excited over decorating their vests and taking turns beating the pinata! Such a fun day and I am so thankful for our Abby. She came at such an interesting but perfect time and she has made my life so much better! It's amazing how one change can turn your world upside down and push you to be a better person. I am a much better person than I was 4 years ago and I have Abby to thank for that. Abby brings so much joy to our home and we just love her laugh. She has the most caring heart and if she's see's you are upset she will say "don't be sad mom, be happy" she will bring you the remote and say "ohh I will turn on a show for you, this will make you feel so much better!" I truly believe no matter how many kids you have they each have a place in the family. Abby is our little peace maker and we are so thankful she is ours. Love you A!!!
