I have been planning for a month all the things I wanted to make and do for valentines this year.Sunday I realized, I only have a day left. So yesterday I appliqued 3 shirts and made Sami's skirt. (super easy by the way) i found the directions here. Went to 3 stores, to get supplies and the twins had specific requests. In the past month, Sami let me know she wanted butterfly earrings and Weston

We have been reading a Christmas book every night in December.This was the quietest that sat, when Dad read to them.I made this advent quilt while in Utah over Thanksgiving.I don't think I would have finished it without Marla spoiling the kids, I mean playing with them .We have all been sleeping on our Christmas pillowcases that I made.I found the idea online last year. But didn't finish the

Can you believe Jaxon is 1 now!I can't. I want him to stay my baby forever. He is the cutest, happiest guy.He lets you know when he is mad. But not very often. He follows the twins around and entertains himself. LOVE this BOYBefore the birthday cupcakes.Marla made the cupcakes....while I sewed.Best vacation ever!And after. This wasn't his first cupcake.I believe he sampled the twins birthday

Little slow posting these...you'll forgive me right?grumpy princess and airplane. probably because they just woke up.Seth told me Wes would stand there and stare at people while trick or treating.He must have been staring them down for more candy, because his bag was twice as full as Sami's.My sweet family before the neighborhood trick or treating on Halloween.First for the kids.I had fun taking

showing off our cute Paris shirts from Aunt Esther!Not walking yet, unless he has his hippo (above) or mommy or daddy's hands.I grabbed the camera when I walked in the room and saw them watching TV next to each other.Usually they are only next to each other because I posed them that way.

So today was our wards' primary program, being primary secretary, I was involved. Sami and I went to church without the boys. We are feeling better from our household sickness. But I'm being really cautious, as I don't want to take sick kids to Utah for Thanksgiving.Anyways I was little afraid to go sit on the stand with Sami drawing with a pen and pad of paper, but figured if she was quiet I

Friday we went to the Heritage Farmstead Museum in Plano with some friends.It was a beautiful day and the kids had alot of fun. Lots of hands on experiences and not so busy that it was hard for Weston. We packed a lunch and ate there while the kids played around us. Good Day!Me and my kidsI carried Jaxon around in my front carrier, until lunch then he sat on a blanket, spilled applesauce all over

I finished the apothecary jars...this is my counter.I dressed the kids up in their costumes last night.I learned from last year...Can't put them on the first time and expect them to love it. Gotta ease him in. Weston cried for a while, I let him take it off. Put Jax's on...then Wes wanted his airplane.Let me just say I wanted a prince, princess and frog prince. Wes refused. So we have a princess,

So do you like how I wrap bikes?This is what the kids woke up to Saturday morning.Sami was most interested in the bike at the store, after we picked out the Princess for the basket. Such a girl!Weston didn't want to wear the helmet. He did alot better when we got outside.PeddlingRiding the bikes lasted about 10 minutes......then we walked the bikes home.Jax watching brother and sister ride.Weston
