Addie

We love this little girl so much! We are so thankful she is a part of our family! She is just the happiest little thing each morning. She is such a joy to wake up to. We go get her out of her bed and she is all smiles! We all can't get enough of her!

She is currently a huge fan of rolling her way across the room to get to the other side or to something she sees. I have a feeling she will be an early crawler!

Father's Day!

We had a great Father's Day! We are so thankful for the Father's in our lives! We especially are thankful to have Andrew in our lives! He is the best dad and does so much for his kids! They love him so much and are so excited when he comes home! We are thankful for all he does for us. He is a great example. He works so hard to provide for us and has to sacrifice a lot in order to. He currently is working 6 days a week and still makes us his number 1 priority! We really are thankful to him! We got him a new shirt for Father's Day and I got him a new shovel and hoe for our new home! We love him so much!

He was asked to be a part of primary honoring a couple of the dad's in our ward. They put on these awesome disguises and they said a few of their favorites trying to get the kids to guess if it was their dad. My kids were like clueless. The whole thing was really humorous! Andrew looked great with his huge glasses, pig nose, and mustache! 

I bummed this turned out blurry! 
I absolutely love this picture!
This picture got out of order but these are the three dad's that dressed up. Our bishop on the far left, a new family in our ward in the middle, and Andrew! The kids were singing a song to them it was so cute!

This was before church! While I got ready he read stories and got the kids bathed and dressed!

Silver lake

A month ago our friends Dan and Mandy invited us to go up Big Cottonwood Canyon and walk around Silver Lake with them after church! We usually have plans on Sunday nights but this week we didn't so we were excited to go with them! It was a little bit of a cooler day in the Valley so it was a little chilly up there in the mountains! We had such a nice walk and even ran into a little bit of leftover snow! It was nice to just walk around and the guys followed the kids and Mandy and I lingered behind just talking! I am so thankful to have such great friends as the Moore's! We really love getting together with them. Afterwards they invited to their house and we had a yummy dinner and the kids played outside and we enjoyed chatting some more! We need to take advantage of the mountains more, our kids loved running and enjoyed the outdoors!


Bryn and Easton are just over a month apart and they play so well together! 




They wanted to do moose ears! On our way up the canyon we saw a moose running up the side of the ride!
This made me a little nervous he kept getting so close to the edge of the nasty marshy area!

Sunday Best

We have late church which I am sure not a huge fan of. It makes the day drag on and seems like it takes forever to finally go to church. It is hard to keep the kids entertained some weeks. 
Easton wanted to hold her and he looked so cute we had to get his picture! 
Should have taken the blanket off of her so we could see their matching dresses better!

I took these like 3 weeks ago and can't believe how much Addie has grown since then!

Heathers phone dump

My phone has a lot of random pictures as well!

We went to a fun park by where we are moving one day while we waited for Andrew to come from work and have a picnic with us. He ended up having an emergency patient and didn't get to come, or a lunch either! Addie loved laying on the blanket on the grass, she really loves grass!
She doesn't really sit in this seat anymore because she won't stay in it!

Ella fell asleep at about 6 one night while I was making dinner! She rarely will fall asleep anymore so I was surprised!
She had just gotten up about 30 minutes before and I knew it wasn't a long enough nap!

She loves to suck her thumb but only really goes for it in her bed or carseat!
She has been rolling over for about a month but never could quite make it the whole way until last week! She now loves to sleep on her tummy which makes me nervous!

We have had a lot of lazy days around the house lately. It is hard to get out some days and I have a lot of packing to do!
Hopefully we can close in the next 3 weeks! We are so excited to move! We have loved our condo but we have outgrown it and the kids really need somewhere to run and play!


Andrew's phone dump

I often forget about pictures on Andrew's phone so when I finally look back there are two or three months worth! Phone Pictures aren't my favorite some turn out really well and some don't. 

Ella is all ready for her dance recital!
She loves to laugh!

Skyping my little brother on Mother's Day, it is the first time my kids would actually sit and talk to him! He comes home a month from yesterday!
Ella loves to hold her! She is getting a little big and a lot wiggly for her!
She actually sat there and let Ella "read" to her!
She is really hard to put to bed at night, she gets really happy and giddy when it is time to put her down!

This is blurry from her moving so fast!

Easton still likes to hold her but only last about 30 seconds!

Friends

Back the end of April we went to our good friends, the Moore's house. Our kids love when we get together and they play so well! We used to be neighbors but they moved last fall and we have missed them! They are always so nice to invite us over and Mandy always makes such yummy food! We could just leave the kids playing for hours!

Farewell dinner

My cute cousin Jennifer is leaving today for a mission. She is going to Spain! Back in May we had a farewell dinner for her before she left to go home to Georgia to finish getting ready to go. She is going to be a great missionary and we are so excited for her! 

She is in the middle with me and my sisters!
All of us girl cousins that were in town!
