Church Duds

I wanted to capture the boys in their snazzy suits before they outgrew them. My dad and Ellen bought them for them when my brother got married. I think they look so handsome!

1st Day of Kindergarten

This day was a difficult one for me. I think I have separation anxiety, or maybe I'm just a mom, but I can't stand being away from my babies. My mind always wanders when they are gone and tried to think of all the terrible things that could happen. I don't like it when they're away for any amount of time, even if it is a half day. I don't know who struggled more though, me or Avan.

Avan is very attached to Duane and missed him so much! They are sweet boys and good brothers.

He's a Citizen!!

He worked so hard to become a citizen and now it's official! We are all so proud of you, babe!

Don't Grow Too Quickly, Sweet Girl!!!!

She's getting too big too fast!! I had to do a mini photo shoot to catch her at this chubby baby age in this adorable pink dress her Aunt Ashley gave her. I love her endless, happy, lovely eyes.

She sure loves her daddy. He fixed her glass slipper after it fell off. ;)

Findings in the Backyard

Daddy found a newt in the window well! The boys were thrilled! We let it go before Adi woke up from her nap.

This is the Place Monument

Such a fun time! There was even a train!

City Creek Mall

The shoes Adi's wearing in these photos were drenched by the time we were through. We brought them home and tried to air them out, but they stunk to high heaven. I washed them and that seemed to make them smell worse! We had to toss them when all was said and done.

Growing

She's getting everywhere on her own! I love these pink overalls. She's my little ray of sunshine. :D

Walks and Park

Late Birthday Celebration

We went to the Thanksgiving Point Dinosaur Museum to give Adi a little party. It was a little late, but she had fun anyway! We love you sweet girl!!

Lookin' Good

Happy first birthday to our wonderfully sweet girl!!! We love you!

Kitty

He thinks he's a cat...

Merry Christmas!!!!

Christmas is Hard

Snuggle Time

Avan loves Adi! Here they are snuggling together to watch a little TV.

Christmas Prep

I love Christmas time and I can't help but do all the fun Christmas things!!

Coincidentally, Adi has learned how to get into the fridge.

More Christmas Crafts

We're continuing our preparations! Santa will be here soon.

Looking for Santa

Santa comes on this webcam multiple times a day to feed his reindeer and read a book to the kids watching. We usually watch him feed hid reindeer just before bed. Sometimes the Grinch comes and steals Santa's dog!! D:

Happy Birthday Avan!!!

We couldn't ask for a more spunky or energetic little man! He's loving and caring and very protective of his family. Happy birthday Avan, we love you so much!!!

The cupcakes kind of look like they were decorated with blood, but they were the ones he wanted! haha

Vampire baby....
