Happy St. Patricks day!
Claire and Carlie were so excited to go to school today, hoping they would catch a leprechaun. Sadly, the sneaking little thing was too sneaky, and they missed him. They were SO upset!! Oh well, maybe next year. :)

Day 76
We had to go to Target today right after I got off work, and Colton hadnt eaten in a while, and he was GRUMPY! So, I waked to the baby food section, and got him one of these pouches of baby food. (you can squeeze a little bit out into your babies mouth. Colton just sucked on it like a straw) After that he was happy as a clam! He enjoyed it so much, I went back and got a few more packets, AND found that they have a spoon that you can attach to the packet of food! baby food on the go! genius! I also liked that this brand of food mixes veggies with fruit. Since Colton HATES all veggies except sweet potatoes and carrots, I figured it a try!
Day 74
Colton likes to sit in the front seat with my while we wait for the twins to get out of school!
Day 73
Keep Calm and Carry On! I found this on sale, and had to have it! Its in our kitchen by our table, and I just love it!
Day 72
I love Sunday mornings! I LOVE bringing Colton in bed with me and just lounging around! He makes some of the greatest faces, and loves sticking out his tongue!
day 71
We invited The Browns, Randy and Jason over to play Ticket to Ride. I love this game! We dont play board games as often as Id like! I think everyone had fun. I know I did.
Day 70
Aaron and I got tickets to the MWC tournament game against San Diego. We had a blast! The crowd during tournament time is totally different from regular conference play. It was amazing! Sadly, we lost, 74-72. But, we still have the NCAA to look forward to!!
Day 69
Our buffet table! When we moved into this house, we wanted a long horizontal mirror from Ikea. The mirror is about 5 feet tall. I couldnt find a buffet table long enough, so we went with the one instead, and this mirror. Now that I look at it, it kind of looks like a bedroom set, but its not. I cant wait to get stuff for the seasons to decorate this!
Day 68
Our new couches came in! We have been waiting 6 weeks for these couches to get here! We are SO excited! We love them! They are super comfortable! I like how the rug has little bits of the blue to tie in the curtains. The blue pillow on the couches actually goes in our bedroom. Now we just have to add other blue pillows. slowly but surely its coming together!
Day 67
Some mornings, things are just a little crazy. Claire offered to hold Colton while I finished getting the girls clothes ready for school. Both girls are SO helpful with Colton. They always seem to know when I need help with him!
Day 66
We are FINALLY starting to get this house decorated! We started with curtains. We debated for a couple of months over what color scheme we wanted to go with. Brown and sage green again, or switch things up and go with brown and light blue. (not really baby blue, but not really teal either) We went with the blue, and are LOVING it so far!
Day 65
Colton is getting to be a little difficult at church. He's at that point where he is kind of too big for his carrier. If he's awake, he doesnt really want to be held. So, we usually find a quiet spot in the hallway, and I let him roll around for a bit.
Day 64
Aaron and the girls came to pick me up from work today. We let them run around the play area right next to my work. Claire was taking a little break from running and doing rolls, and I thought she just looked so cute!
Day 63
Friday March 4
We try to take the girls to the park every Friday after school. The girls really look forward to going each week. Carlie LOVES to slide!
Day 62
Thursday March 3
I have been busy making bows this week. Claire was having a hard time sleeping, and wanted to help make a few bows. She put clear nail polish on the ends of ribbons, help cut, and held ribbon when I needed her to. She loved helping, and even picked out a few ribbons for her own bows!
Day 61
Today was "Wear a shirt with words day!" Carlies shirt says "dance, dance, dance" and Claires says "Best Friends stick together!"
Day 60
Since later this week is Dr. Suess' birthday, Claire and Carlie had to make a Dr. Suess hat! They used glitter, paint, jewels, and pom poms! They had so much fun decorating these hats for school!
Day 59
We went over to Adam and Melissas for dinner and dessert! All of our kids play really well together! We love having them back in town!

It was so stormy out today! The clouds were SO low. It snowed in other parts of town, but not in our area.
Day 56

Colton LOVES bath time! He is too long for his baby bath tub now, so he gets to take a bath like a big boy. He loves to splash and tries to roll over to play in the water! Look at his chunky legs!
Day 55

Claire and Carlie have been wanting Twinkle Toe shoes since school started. I found a pair on sale, and they had 2 of the sizes I needed! The girls were so excited to get these shoes!

Day 52

Claire and Carlie love playing games and watching movies on my old phone. They usually lay together like this and take turns with the games. Carlie must have fallen asleep waiting for her turn.
Day 51
February 20, Sunday
Colton is SO patient. I was busy cooking dinner tonight, he was getting a little fussy, so I put him in his high chair, so he could see me, with a few toys. He loves to play with these balls! He sat up there for a good 30 minutes with out making a fuss!
Day 50
February 19, Saturday
We finally got Trixie a real dog bed! She has been sleeping in places she should NOT be sleeping, like our couches! She loves her bed, and will even go lay down when we tell her too. Im not to fond of animals, but Trixie really is a good girl!
Day 49
February 18, Friday
We (the family) went to a High School basketball game, with some friends, to check out a player who will be playing for the Rebels after he serves his mission. During half time, Aaron noticed Wink Adams walking in! Wink played for the Rebels 2 years ago, and I totally loved watching him play! I HAD to get a photo with him! He was super nice! I got a picture with him, and Aaron did as well. I hear Wink is a mentor to this kid that we are getting. Pretty neat!
