Thanksgiving Point

I took the girls to the petting zoo at Thanksgiving point this weekend and we had so much fun.  We went on a wagon ride, fed baby goats, and got an ice cream afterwards at the little soda fountain.  It was a beautiful afternoon.

The little graduate

Just catching up a little.  Elise graduated from pre-school earlier this summer and is starting kindergarten next Monday the 21st.  She will be in Mrs. Belnap's class.  She has her backpack packed with supplies and is ready to go.  

Watermelon baby

I love summer foods like watermelon, corn on the cob, and grilled hamburgers.  Apparently, Claire does as well.  She ate so much watermelon at my mom's last week that I had to get a picture of her.  If she got too close to the rind we would have to quickly give her another piece before she started yelling at us.  It was so cute!

1st Day of School!

I can't believe school has started already this year.  Anne is in 4th grade now.  She was actually really excited to start this year.  The bottom picture is of Anne and her cousins Abby and Hailey.  They all go to Fox Hollow Elementary.  Elise and Molly will start next Monday.  They will be in Kindergarten.

My Little Princess

I have not posted a blog in so long that I thought I should update some of my pictures for all to see.  Claire is 9 months now and crawling everywhere.  Her sisters dressed her up in a princess dress last weeks.  Surprisingly, she really liked it.

Claire is getting so big, so fast.  She was almost 13 lbs at her Dr appt

last week.  Her big blue eyes are so pretty!  We have been very busy with work and school and have been almost snowed in a couple of times this winter.  We have had so much snow in Utah this winter.  We have had more snow this winter than I can remember for several years.  Last week we had such a bad storm that there were several babies born in either cars or gas stations due to the roads being so bad.  Sure glad I was not one of those women.

I have loved having a new baby in the house again.  It is so fun to dress her, 

bathe her, and just cuddle with her.  She definitely has a fiesty temper but 

we love her that way.

My friend and co-worker Jodi came and took these cute pictures of Anne, Elise, and Claire in December.  I have loved looking at them.  I cannot believe how big Anne and Elise are now.  As you can probably tell from the picture Anne is a great helper with Claire.  They both lover her to death, literally!

Hi Everyone,

Welcome to our blog.  I have finally joined the blog world thanks to my friend Jaclyn at work who showed me the ropes at about 1 AM last night.  We are all doing well.  Matt is finishing up Organic Chemistry and starting to prepare for the DAT later this year.  I am working full time at American Fork Hospital as a Labor/Delivery nurse.  Anne is in 3rd grade and will be in The Music Man musical in May.  Elise is in pre-school and loves living by her cousins Molly, Abby, Sam and Hailey.  Claire is 2 months old now and still enjoys keeping Matt and myself up all night. Hopefully she will get over her collicy stage and learn to sleep through the night in the near future.
