have a little fun.

that she couldn't see it

I Am the Luckiest Mom in the World


I can't believe Alison is 4 1/2!
She is the biggest help to me during the day and hardly
ever complains. She is a very
friendly person and everyone at pre school knows her.
When she gets there everyone is
yelling hello to her and when she leaves
everyone is yelling goodbye Alison.
She loves her little sisters very much and when either
of them are crying
she usually is the first one to their sides.

Earlier this week I wore my overalls for the first time in a long time and
I'm sure you all know what a fashion critic Emma is.
The first thing that came out of her mouth was
"Mom , what are you wearing?"
I told her my overalls
and she said "I don't like them so can you Please go change!"
And yes she had her little smirk going.
Emma has a lot of humor in her and you never know what
is going to come out of her mouth.
Like I said earlier she started pre school and is now a Sunbeam.
Oh how time flies!

The last couple weeks Leah has been
Blossoming. She is starting to show her little personality and I am
Loving it. When the girls are singing or we are listening to a CD she is humming
or yelling/singing so we have another little musician in our family. It is so cute. She is starting to put her head in your shoulder when she
gets shy and she still watches her older sisters every move.
When we are eating she is watching our every move. She has been
eating baby cereal and can't get enough of it.
I can tell she is going to be crawling and playing with her older sisters in no time.

Time Sure Flies By!


This week Emma started preschool. She'll be attending the rec center
with Alison and so far so good. She went
with Ryan a couple times to pick Alison up and this last Monday
she wanted to stay. So she started on Wednesday.
They took a walk to the fire station and Ryan was a helper with all the kids.
Afterward Ryan left with no problem.
Today was a First Full day at preschool and it's pretty quiet with just Leah home.

Alison starting PreSchool and LOVING it
Me starting to sell
THE BEST CANDLE EVER
SCENTSY
and the list goes on.

We are looking forward to this New Year and what our NEW adventures are.
Our new year resolutions are probably like everybody else
Loose weigh 
keep up on our Family prayers and scripture reading 
Watch less TV and play more
and so on.
Two of mine is to SAVE SAVE SAVE so when we can transfer
we can pick up and MOVE! (and to just Save!)
and to 
Bare my Testimony each Fast Sunday.

I know this is about 8 days late but I had to put it in.
I hope everybody has an awesome new year!!!

Leah is 5 months today


This is the face we have been getting for the last week.
She's getting her bottom teeth!

I can't believe she is 5 months old!

Leah has been a huge blessing in our lives and I
can't see my life without her. She
is a very good baby and so much like her daddy, just goes with
the flow. Alison and Emma drop whatever they
are doing when they hear her laughing
or crying just to be at her
side. I love her with all my heart and look forward to
watching her grow into a beautiful woman.
I love you Leah
