Colton likes to be near me, almost all the time. Especially in the mornings while im blow drying my hair, he likes to sit in the cupboard right next to my sink! Silly boy!

Wed 2.8.2012

I was looking through the pictures on my phone, and found these silly pictures of the twins. They seem to take my phone and take silly pictures of eachother quite often!

Tue 2.7.2012

Colton was running to throw his dirty diaper away, and fell flat on his face, and got a HUGE nasty looking bump. He was so sad about it. Luckily it was just a bump, and not a concussion.

Mon 2.6.2012

Colton ate dinner before I did, so he was down from the table when I was trying to eat. He came and stood on my chair and played with my face, making it very difficult to actually eat! He sure makes me laugh though!

Sun 2.5.2012

I got that nasty stomach virus that had been going around, and I didnt move off the couch all day.

Sat 2.4.2012

Sometimes the kids just sit and watch TV together, and it just melts my heart. I love those 3 kiddos!

Fri 2.3.2012

Carlie is very in to writing me a note to let me know whats going on with her. In this note, she wrote, "Dad is vacuuming, mom is changing colton, I am writing, claire is not doin nothing, our family is cleaning"  I laughed out loud when she wrote, Claire is doing nothing!

Thur 2.2.2012

I asked the girls to clean up the playroom, and they did a great job of picking up, and Claire even asked if she could vacuum! I had to let her try! I love that the girls are getting old enough to start helping out around the house!

Wed 2.1.2012

While sitting in the car waiting for the girls to get out of school, Colton likes to get out of his seat, and come sit up front with me and look out the window and play with the steering wheel. Now, everytime the car stops, he thinks he can get un-buckled and come sit up front with me!

Tue 1.31.2012

Claire hopped into Coltons car seat on the way home from school today. She looks ginormous sitting in it!

Mon 1.30.2012

I love seeing the difference in the twins handwriting. Claires is on the left, Carlies is on the right.

Sun 1.29.2012

When I got home from scrapbooking Claire made me a card telling me that she missed me! I love getting little notes like that!

Sat 1.28.2012

While i was out of town at Scrapfest, Aaron would send me pictures of things he did with the kids. He took the kids to the Bellagio to watch the water show, and look at the conservatory. Then took them out to their favorite place to eat, California Pizza Kitchen, then he took them to the park!

Fri 1.27.2012

Scrapfest weekend.

Thu 1.26.2012

I looked outside and the sky was PINK! I had to go out and look at the sky, and the sunset was just beautiful! Who says Vegas is ugly?

Wed 1.25.2012

Carlie loves wearing these boots that grandma Chloe got them for Christmas. Today she paired them with skinny jeans and a T-shirt, and I just thought she looked so stinking cute. I love her style!

Tue 1.24.2012

Claire woke up in the middle of the night, threw up, woke me up, I cleaned it all up, then put her back to bed. She woke up with an ear ache and a fever, so she got to stay home from school and relax all day. Luckily she was feeling better after the 48 hour bug.

Mon 1.23.2012

We finally had some rain!! I loved having a cloudy blustery day. It finally started to feel like winter.

Sun 1.22.2012

The other day Carlie cut her hair. She wouldnt tell me exactly where on her head she cut, and I couldnt really find it when I looked on her head. So a few days went by and I FOUND where she cut. She cut a small chunk of bangs. OH NO!

Sa1 1.21.2012

Aaron and I had a long day of basketball. We went to the Findlay Prep vs. Bishop Gorman HS basketball game, then went to the UNLV vs UNM game. SO fun!

Fri 1.20.2012

Colton goes from cute and innocent, to little monster child in no time at all! Good thing he is so dang cute!

Thu 1.19.2012

Claire brought home a book of journal entries from school, and this one says "I love ducks because they waddle." !

Wed 1.18.2012

Carlie was sitting indian style this night at dinner, and I thought it was just cute! She got such a little attitude with me when I took her picture too. She is just too cute though.

Tue 1.17.2012

We had a few errands to run after school one day, and the girls fell right to sleep! They were exhausted from school!

Mon 1.16.2012

The kids didnt have school today so the Browns came over to play! The kids get along really well and enjoy playing together. yay for cousins!

Sun 1.15.2012

Colton went to nursery for the first time today! His leaders said he played really well with the other kids, and didnt even cry!

Sat 1.14.2012

I am still trying to eat healthy. This morning I made a green smoothie with Spinach, cooked oats, mixed berries and mango. GAG.

Fri 1.13.2012

After running a few errands I met Sarah and her kids at the park. Colton had a lot of fun running around with Trenton and Katelyn. He is getting to be such a big boy!

Thur 1.12.2012

This is what I weigh right now. I'd like to get down to 125 eventually.

Wed 1.11.2012

Aaron, Colton and I went out to lunch at Lucille's on afternoon. Colton was really well behaved!

Tue 1.10.2012

We have been working hard with memorizing math facts and sight words with the twins. I'll write a sight word on one side, and a math fact on the other side.

Mon 1.9.2012

While making dinner I send the kids to the playroom to play. The girls do a pretty good job of keeping Colton entertained, the TV in there also helps!

Sun 1.8.2012

After church we went for a drive around the Red Rock loop. We saw quite a few Mule! I love going for drives and looking at the scenery!

Sat 1.7.2012

Colton got a haircut tonight! He cried during the entire cut, but was just fine afterwards. I love seeing him with a fresh haircut!

Fri 1.5.2012

The weather has been really nice this week. So we went to the park after school today with some friends to burn off some energy!

Thu 1.5.2012

It's obvious that I gained a few pounds over the Holiday break, so I'm trying to get back on track. This morning I had wheat toast with scrambled eggs. And a Mtn. Dew. Haha. Baby steps.

Wed 1.4.2012

Colton just isnt feeling well. All he wants to do is lay in my lap. So, I just sat with him on my lap for as long as he wanted. The messes around the house can wait.

Tue 1.3.2012

Aaron helps out with homework quite often. While I am working with one kid on work sheets, Aaron helps with reading. This is a HUGE help!

Mon 1.2.2012

I love seeing that my car gets 18.8 mpg. With gas prices so high these days, it's nice to see that my tank of gas goes a little further!

Sun 1.1.2012

Here is the left over mess from the night before. There was confetti all over our courtyard!

Sat 12.31.2011

Happy New Year! We originally had planned on going to Parowan for the weekend, but there isn't any snow on the ground, so we decided to stay home and have a party at our house instead. Keri, Joey, Dad, Dave, Linda, Linda's parents and younger brother came over. We ate, we played Just Dance on the Wii, we popped poppers and had a great time!

Fri 12.30.2011

The girls got new nail polish and decals for Christmas and they have wanted me to do their nails since. Carlie wanted purple and blue nails, with a star decal, and Claire wanted blue and pink nails with flower decals!

Thu 12.29.2011

Me and the girls popped some popcorn, and watched Kung Fu Panda 2 tonight. The movie was cute, and I just love snuggle time with the twins!

Wed 12.28.2011

Claire and Carlie got to spend the night at my parents house! They had such a great time. They web got to go for a ride in Joey's Jeep!

Tue 12.27.2011

Colton got a new toothbrush for Christmas. He is also teething, and wants to chew on this toothbrush ALL DAY LONG!

Mon 12.26.2011

Day after Christmas equals super lazy day in pajamas!

Sun 12.25.2011

Merry Christmas! We had a late night at Nana and Papa's and we let Colton sleep in, while the twins opened their gifts. It was nice letting them be the center of attention. Although, I wish we could have seen Coltons reaction to everything under the tree. Im not sure if he's old enough yet to get super excited though.  After we opened gifts at home, we went to Grandpa Pauls house, and had brunch with Aarons sisters and Grandma and Grandpa Tine. After that we headed back home, Grandma Chloe and KC came over, we opened gifts with them, then we got dinner ready and my parents, Keri and Joey came over for dinner. Busy day, but it was so fun seeing so much family all in one day.

Sat 12.24.2011

We spent the evening at Nana and Papas house for Christmas Eve. It is SO much fun watching Colton and Abigail play together. They are 4 months apart, and they are just so cute together!

Fri 12.23.2011

We took the kids to Dickie's BBQ for lunch. The girls ate great, and Colton behaved so well! I love taking outings like this, as a family!

Thu 12.22.2011

We FINALLY decorated Gingerbread Houses. We always build our own from graham crackers, and home made frosting, but we saw these kits at Sams Club, and figured it would probably be easier this way. We got 2 kits. Claire and Aaron decorated one, and Carlie and I decorated the other! We put Colton down for a nap before we started, and we had a lot of fun.

Wed 12.21.2011

We love going around looking at Christmas lights. We heard of this neighbor hood that had TONS of houses that decorated their houses and yards. We drove by and were not disappointed! The kids LOVED all of the houses!

Tue 12.20.2011

Grandma Chloe got these cute Santa hats for all of the kids. They LOVED them! The girls wore these hats around the house for days!
