Primary

A few weeks ago Ella was asked to give the scripture in Primary! She was really excited. She did it in February and really was hesitant and I ended up saying it. Well we worked all week on it each night as we were getting ready for bed and by Sunday she had it memorized. She had Andrew get up with her and she remembered most of it! I was so proud of her! I was glad I had my phone with me that day to snap a picture of her sitting there!

Sleeping kids

I don't know what it is but I love when my kids are sleeping! They just are so peaceful and look huge! Andrew often finds me snuggled up with one of them late at night after they are asleep! I just love that special snuggle time and whispering in their ears that I love them! It is the one time they aren't moving or climbing all over me while trying to snuggle them!

This day I put him down for his nap and gave him his book. I went in about 10 minutes later and he had crashed book in hand and on his face!

Ella is touch and go with naps. I don't enforce them all that much. She is really good at playing dolls on her bed and some days she falls asleep and some days she just plays, sometimes for 2 hours! She is really good to play quietly by herself! This particular day after church she was playing on the floor and I looked down and she was out! She is the worst person to wake up from a nap, Andrew says she is just like me when I get woke up, ha ha! She is so grouchy and yells and cries and it usually lasts about 30 minutes! I tried waking her up in this picture and she just turned her head and she had carpet marks all over her face!

These pictures are rather old, like over a month! I am so behind! 

This is at the Disney Store at City Creek. We went down there I don't remember why now, there was a reason though! Ella and Easton love the short clips you can pick to watch!

We had a week in June where the kids were banned from TV, shows on Tablets, and movies in the car. They were really bad at a store one day and I had enough and took that privilege away for a week. It was rather nice to not have them watching it every morning but annoying to have to worry what they were doing while I showered! It had actually been 8 days when we went over to my sisters house and they were watching Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood and they looked at me like is it going to be OK if we watch this! It was hilarious how excited they were! They sat and watched very intently!

Easton loves this tricycle! Poor kid only has about 8 feet to ride it on our balcony! Hopefully by next summer we will have somewhere to play that isn't so small! His smiling has gotten better for pictures!
