Salsa fiend


Tyler LOVES salsa and chips. As long as it's not "picey". He will ask to eat it almost everyday. 

And some days he will get it out and pour some himself. As you can see it flowed over his bowl. 

One Sunday evening we busted out Life to teach the kids how to play. They really enjoyed it. They liked getting married and getting gifts for having kids.

The boys ask to play it almost every day now. It's too bad it's such a long game. I'm sure when they can read we will play it more.

Another school day! These beauties of mine love to socialize. They have fun getting together with friends at school and can hardly wait to get homework and other things done so they can go out and play with more friends! Last night I let the girls play outside till 8 with Miah, Ashley, Sophie, and Emily. They were shocked! They were playing so well I and getting lots of exercise I didn't want to end it too early! Course they still weren't ready to end the fun when I said so at 8!

It's a new season and time for me to think of more of my many blessings! I love my family and our ward and neighborhood. I honestly couldn't have planned this chapter in our life better if I wanted to!!

Also, Jaime was offered two new jobs last month! He could have turned them down (one was another district position dealing with technology) but after praying and weighing pros and cons he decided to take the principal position at a new school being built a few blocks away from our development! No more 15 minute commute, hello to walking or biking on days he can!! Congrats Jaime. You've certainly won your way into the hearts of the PSD. Keep up the good work!!

The Past Week...

This past week has been a pretty laid back one. I've been getting things done on my own schedule...whenever I feel like it. Haha! Took the boys to the library, I've been making time (a.k.a. not working) to read a book for my own enjoyment, planted some flowers, made a few trips to the park with the kids, done a bit of shopping (grocery shopping at Winco is a lot of work with just me and the boys and I really have to gear up for it.), and I have been playing Sorry and Hi Ho Cherry O with Aidan quite a bit. So I have been busy just not with the normal stuff that keeps me busy on a daily basis.  I love browsing Costco with Jaime and my kids in the evening of a week day. It's not very crowded then. If there's a fun movie on the TVs we like to stop and watch a little. We stopped to watch a bit of the Avenger's in 3D...hence Aidan's glasses. :) I spent a day at Mom's with the boys. It was fun to be there with her and visit and do stuff like we used t

For Unto Us A Child Is Born

On Wednesday December 16th I went to the hospital at 7 a.m. to start my induction. I was already dialated to a 3 and dr. said if I wanted to have the baby I could. I didn't want to be in the hospital or recovering too close to Christmas with my entire family home for the season so I said sure! I was finally underway at 8 a.m. with pitocin. The rest of the morning and afternoon was spent in boredom and watching tv with Jaime at my side. At around 12:45 the dr. came to break my water because that usually gets things going quick. My kids have all arrived shortly after the water breaks. However, since the baby's head kind of floated up he decided to wait a bit to not risk the umbilical cord coming out first or wringing around the baby's neck. Bummer! I was so disappointed. So, on to more waiting, turning up the pitocin...again. Finally at 3:30 p.m. I was having some strong contractions and dialated 5-6. My mother-in-law came to visit at 4 and Jaime told her that it would probab

SURPISE!!!!

Image
Yes, this is true. And yes....this will be our newest addition to the family. You think you're surprised! Just imagine how surprised I was! Big time let me tell you. And in case you are wondering, I am just starting my first week of month number five. Yes, I am in my second trimester already. Hard to believe it's really gone that fast. I haven't been sick at all. It's been very nice. I could easily not know that I was pregnant because I don't feel like I am. This explains why I haven't been sick. It's a boy. I wasn't sick with Aidan either. I kind of figured it was a boy and this morning confirmed that it was. Here's the little guy in action. , We got up a little after 6 a.m. and got ready to head to the hospital. My mom showed up at 6:45 to watch the other three at home for us. Thanks Mom! We got to the hospital and you know the rest of the story there...boy. :) Everything looks to be good from what we saw but someone else will look
