Avery's toothless smile!

Avery lost her two front top teeth within one week of each other. I love her smile, but it also makes me realize that my baby is growing up.

Easter 2010

Josie's first Easter.
Josie will be 9 months on April 10th. Six days after Easter.

We had a wonderful Easter this year. This is the first year that we had Easter dinner all by ourselves. It was very nice to celebrate with just us. We got up and the kids went crazy finding Easter eggs. Tate calls them Ooster eggs. I love watching the kids get eggs. I could do it over and over again. We talked about the Resurrection and what Jesus did for us. The kids were all so attentive when we talked about it and watched a video about what happened to Jesus. Meg and Tate talked about it all day. They kept saying that mean men hurt Jesus and put nails in his hands and feet. I was amazed that they really listened to us. Later that day we had a ham dinner and went for a walk. It was a great Easter and I am so grateful for what my Savior has done for us.

Spring Block Party

So our street decided to have a block party a few weeks ago before it gets too hot. We had a parade, bouncys, the Gilbert Swat and Fire Department came. We had BBQ's all day and it was a blast.

Happy Birthday Avery!

Avery turned 7 today! I can't believe it. It seriously seems like yesterday that I was holding my little 5lb 12oz baby in my arms. She was so sweet and tiny. Avery is the greatest big sister. She is loved so much by Tate, Meg and Josie. She is always giving Meggy piggyback rides and helping her get dressed. She is always making Josie smile and laugh. Whenever she walks in the room Josie just lights up. Avery always wants to hold and play with Josie. She is also very good at feeding Josie her dinner. Tate loves to irritate her and Avery says that he is the worst brother ever. Deep down I know that she loves him. She growls and chases him around and he giggles with glee. Avery is a great student and her teacher loves her. I love you Avery so much and I don't know how I would do it without you. You are such a big helper and are always concerned about others. We love you!

You requested Poppyseed muffins for breakfast and donuts to take to school. We went to Olive Garden for your birthday. It has been your favorite place for the last 3 birthdays. You love the salad and penne noodles with alfredo sauce. You get it every time we go there.

We gave her a bike for her birthday and a DS Scooby Doo game.

Happy Birthday Bug!

Josie is 8 months old!

On March 10th Josie turned 8 months. She is such a happy, great baby. She always loves to be played with and always has to be involved in the chaos.

Meg and Tate's Birthday party

On January 23rd we had the twin's birthday party at a place called the Little Gym. We had about 15 three year olds there and they had a blast.
