For the last month...

Sorry for the lack of posting. This last month my sweet 14 year niece stayed with us for the whole month. I got a taste of what it's going to feel like to have someone older in the house and it was glorious!! I can't wait for Maryn to be old enough to babysit and be able to do things on her own. She thinks she's old enough now but still has a lot of learning to do. Some of the things we were able to do this past month were:

Temple Hopping (3 temples in one day)
Temple Square
The Church History Museum
Swimming
School Carnival
Drive up Little Cottonwood Canyon
TONS of movies at home
Went OUT to a movie "How to Train your Dragon"
School Shopping
Quilting
Baking Cookies
This is the Place Monument
Petting Zoo
Gardner Village

...and a ton of other shtuff! Thanks Raechie for coming to stay with us and helping keep the kids entertained.

Happy Birthday Anne Marie

To my sweet sister Anne,

Happy birthday!!! I won't disclose her age because she is O-L-D. Okay not that old just a few years older than me. I wanted to send my birthday wishes to you and let you know how much I love you. Even though sometimes you feel your alone and no one understands you...just know that I will always be here to remind you that I love you and will always be here to try to make you laugh. And let you know that your weird because you're related to me. Sorry Anne this is the only picture I have of you but I think you'll like it! Happy Birthday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get in my Belly

Need I say more??? I think the title and the pic speak for itself. I have a very "healthy" baby boy! Just don't get too close or he might eat you. Mind you this was taken almost 3 weeks ago. I think he's added a few more chookins and roles since then.

Church House Mouse

Today at church I was rushing around from one calling to the next only to find out I actually get to go to my normal classes because I wasn't needed in primary after all. Ask me about my schedule on Sunday sometime...it's insane. I can barely keep up with it myself between my husband and I. So, I decided to go attend my husband's class. My neighbor friend had Mason so I sat next to her. A little into the lesson something was coming towards me and at first I thought it was this little girls binky rolling towards me and then I realized it wasn't a binky. I screamed and literally jumped on my chair holding up my dress from underneath. A MOUSE had just ran over my foot. I screamed so loud I wouldn't be surprised if the whole ward building heard me. Everyone else sat in class like it was nothing but a thing but I was a little freaking out. Come to find out the same thing happened to my friend 2 weeks ago when I wasn't in class. A bit of information that would've been nice for my husband to pass along. It was a good thing I wasn't holding the baby because I most likely would've tossed him.
