I just LOVE these pictures. Alivia wasn't real sure about Santa, but Ty and Natalie sure enjoyed Papa Reed being Santa. They made it clear that they weren't fooled for a minute. Now they enjoy the fact that Papa Reed helps Santa out when he is too busy to be at the ward party and he can fill in for him. In the words of Tyson, HOW AWESOME IS THAT!

Where is Ali????

Peek-a-boo!!!

Okay so here is my project that took over a week to complete.

The before and after pictures.

Ahh birthday times. I love it. We had super saturday the morning of Tyson's birthday and we made cupcakes, so here you go Ty. Happy birthday.

Alivia loves to sing, which is kinda weird considering she doesn't talk but her she is belting "My Girl" out for the world to hear.

This is just a cool picture. Tyson was Iron Man for Halloween, for his birthday, and all the days in between.

You probably probably can't tell but we are holding up the number seven on our seven year anniversary in Cabo behind a waterfall.

Elisa and Jeremy this is for you. Remember the good ol' days.

Eric's next purchase...okay maybe not.

Dinner cruise

Spa day...my favorite kind of days.

We released the baby turtles that hatched that morning. Eric got two turtles and one of his was the lonely one that had a bum leg and may not make it in the "Big Blue." It was so much fun to name our turtles and help them make it to sea. They were so cute.

She put on three swimsuits cause she just couldn't decide which one to wear. Grandma helped with this. She also thought it wasn't fair for Mommy to take her goldfish on the airplane so she made sure to take them back.

Tyson building his famous lego robots.

Doesn't she make a great Princess?

Thanks again Mom and Dad for watching the kiddos. Love ya

So, there are so many other things I should be doing right now but oh well. I am enjoying the few moments of quiet I have right now. So I just love these pictures. I love the one of Tyson's first love that he danced with for hours during Cindy's reception. Oh what a little man he is.

So Tyson is LOVING Kindergarten. He has a couple of really good friends he's made already. He is excited for homework. I'm not bursting that bubble for him that will come naturally.

Natalie is looking forward to her birthday on Monday. She is having a Care Bear party. We'll have a pinata, games to play, and lots cake to eat. She can hardly wait to have a day all about her. I think she needs this.

Alivia is busy not talking, not jabbering, and not verbalizing anything she wants. She will run across the room and tap your arm to make sure you are paying attention to her. She will talk when she decides to. So far she doesn't have to talk because we all do it for her. Oh well, she seems more like a baby this way and I kinda like that.

As for me and the little King in the belly- we are HUGE and barefoot all the time. Just the way it is suppose to be. Hopefully I can keep thinking that positively about being large with child. I do like the second trimester the most. I am trying to enjoy things as much as possible.

So that is our update. Bye for now.

Natalie's dress up day

We just love playing dress up around here, and Natalie makes a perfect princess. She says all you need to be a princess is a princess dress and a princess name. So there you have it. I think no little girl is complete with out a little sparkly pink tutu.





She's not very coordinated but she sure is cute.

Preschool Prom and Papas Pizza Time

I can't believe I can love 3 little people so much. It's a good thing I like their Daddy too cause they are spitting images of him and I am so glad about that. It amazes me that their successes and failures are your success and failures. On Sunday Tyson gave a talk in Primary and I was actually nervous for him. I could feel my heart beating faster when it was his turn to talk. He did awesome though. He is such a good kid.
