Day One

June 15, 2010

Day 1 of Avery learning to do her own laundry. Someone once told me once their kids could see the top of the washer, they were responsible for their own laundry.  I figured that with a stool pushed up to the washer, Avery could see the top =) I knew there was a [...]

Recital Videos

The videos are from dress rehearsal…no filming during the actual performance =(
A little tap and then ballet performance from Avery. She looks confused during ballet mainly because the girls were standing on the wrong dot and my little rule follower couldn’t dance because she kept looking at the girls who weren’t following the rules [...]

Happy Birthday to Me

June 2, 2010

My birthday happened to fall on the day that Brent pulls a 14 hour work day, so we’re pretending my birthday is tomorrow.   The girls decided that I needed a cake today though since it was my actual birthday.  I think they thought they were going to make it themselves  because when I started to [...]

I took all 3 kids to the waterpark BY MYSELF this week. Three  kids who can’t swim and me.  I figured it would be a learning adventure for us all =)

Sisters

The conversation was revolving around Avery going to preschool next year.

A Morning at the Zoo

May 17, 2010

It was late in the morning and the sun was hot.  As we walked into the zoo, Elliana reminded me “I’m 3 now mom.  Don’t I get my own card?”  For a moment I was tempted to say, “next time honey” and just walk through the gate.  After all, we have season passes.  Will it [...]

Can I Brag?

May 10, 2010

on my husband of course =) 
I love sitting in the church on Sunday mornings as Brent leads the congregation into the throne room of our Savior.  There is just something unique about being  led in worship by your husband.
When we first started dating,  this wasn’t the case.  In fact, I use to think “I’m not [...]
