Olivia is Double Digits!!

We celebrated Olivia's 10th birthday with my family on Valentine's day. Our monthly Sunday dinner's with my family. It just worked out to celebrate her birthday then since everyone was coming. 

Christy offered to make Olivia's birthday cake and Olivia could help. She loves baking and learning how to do things in the kitchen...fun stuff. She's not a fan of doing dishes. ;)

The cake looked pretty awesome!




Emily Daw and her mom took Olivia out to dinner for her birthday one evening and they gave her this emoji pillow. She things these pillows are so fun. 

We celebrated her birthday on her birthday, February 21st with Jaime's family. 
Bel and Chris gave her lots of fun nail art stuff. 

Grandma and Grandpa Morales got her a new Calico Critter townhouse. I adore these little critters.

She was pretty surprised to open up a new American Girl doll, Grace. I was surprised too. (Not on this day but a few weeks prior) Jaime had purchased the doll months ago when it was on sale and free shipping and had it sent to Bel's house so there wasn't any tax to pay. I'm not sure why he didn't tell me he got it, perhaps because I would have said no. My girls have lots of these dolls. Don't get me wrong, I love them! You could say we now have a collection of these dolls. I do appreciate that the girls take good care of them too.

Yummy Dairy Queen ice cream cake! I still prefer these over regular cake. ;)


That evening for her birthday dinner she had her traditional waffles!

I remember when Olivia was my chubby little baby, now she's an energetic 10 year old who loves to play with friends, imagination play, and she STILL loves her silky blankets and of course stuffed animals.

SURPISE!!!!

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

Living Life Day to Day

My kids are wonderful. They are growing up into wonderful children. I love them so much. We've been very busy with this and that recently. This will be a long recap of some of what's been going on. :) The Primary Program was Sunday Sept 22. (I forgot to get a picture of them on that day but I did get pics of them the previous Sunday.) All four of them memorized their parts and stood at the microphone to say them without any hesitation at all. They were cute to watch singing the songs. Aidan was funny to watch with his gestures and making a heart with his hands through some of the songs. My parents and grandparents were able to come and watch. It was a special treat for the kids to have them there.  The Sunday this picture was taken there were hundreds of yellow butterflies all over the purple flowering bushes. It's hard to see them but on the left you can see one up close.  Tyler had his first talk in primary the Sunday after the program. He stood up to the mi

The Past Week...

Image
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
