He's official!

Well, he was official before, but now he's been blessed.  We had a great day and it was a beautiful blessing. So proud of my two studly boys!  Thanks to everyone who came and helped to make our day so great! :)




















See how small his outfit is? If there was any question that Luke is bigger, it should be answered now. We blessed Luke a month earlier (in age) then we blessed Josh and Luke is bursting out the seems...literally! We couldn't completely button the back and it's about an 2 inches too short! He, he! :)

So...I'm bummed!

We went to the dino park yesterday.  Awesome! We love the dinosaur park. I took tons and tons of pictures and couldn't wait to get home and get them edited and all blogg-ified...and guess who lost the camera?!  Me!!  Somewhere between the picnic table where we sat and watched the kiddos play and my house is my fabulous, beautiful, perfect for outings point and shoot camera.  Sure, it's under $100 to replace, but 100 bucks is 100 bucks! Man!  I hope, hope, hope someone finds it and turns it in.  (This is the incredible re-appearing camera, afterall.  I've lost it TWICE before and it's always shown back up).  I just hope it shows up before girls camp next week!

Recent Happenings...

Does anybody else get bummed when you open my blog and it's the same thing...again!  Well...it's time for an update! :)  We've had fun--Luke is finally turning a corner.  The crying all day boy is slowly but surely heading out the door, and left in his place is a smiley baby who can handle being by himself for more then 12 seconds.  Whew!  I thought that it was never going to end! :)  He's fun to have around now--where as before he was fun to mostly cuddle.  Still no giggles yet, but I'll take smiles for now! 


Josh is talking up a storm.  It's crazy to think that just a few month ago he could only say 'ball', 'dad', 'no'.  Now we get all sorts of words and phrases.  It's a good reminder to try to achieve good parenting when you have a parrot around.


I'm trying to upload a cute video of Josh, but to no avail!  Just imagine how cute he is! :)

Katelyn is almost 4!  Crazy!!  She's given her first talk in primary, which we re-recorded at home for your viewing pleasure.  It was great--she did it mostly all by herself.  She's actually a big helper with her brothers and is quite the little social princess--even passing random children as we drive she wants to 'stop!  I want to know their names!'

 One afternoon, while waiting for Dad to come home we pulled out the camera for 'funny faces!'


Can you stick your tongue up your nose?
Her primary talk...Joseph Smith restores the Church


We've spent fun times at the dinosaur park, 4-wheeling, and the zoo and currently we're working on a fun weekend project...replacing our patio door! We've all had nasty colds and Luke passed his 2 month check-up with flying colors (the first of my babies to be over 50%tile in weight at 2 months).  We're looking forward to camping and playing LOTS this summer, so stay tuned for more fun!
