Easter 2012

Easter has come and gone but these pictures are too cute not to share them. I think its fun to dress the girls all matching. I'm sure they'll hate me for it when they are older but for now I'll take it while I can get away with it!

I love the moments when they are best friends.

teeth, teeth, and more teeth.

In April Dallin lost his first tooth, and his second tooth! Way to go buddy! 

It freaked me out at first because at 4 years old I thought he was way too young to be losing teeth. So I called the dentist in a panic and I'm sure they thought I was an idiot. They told me it was perfectly normal. I have since found out that the earlier teeth come in the earlier they are lost. Good theory!

Soon after that Emma got her first tooth! At 6 months old. 

I love this one tooth grin. I never want to forget it. 

Sarah just wanted to show off our pretty teeth!

Then in June Emma got some more teeth!

Dallin Lost some more teeth in July!

(2 to be exact)

And Emma became a vampire with two more teeth that same month. 

(bad picture I know but you can see them, the vampire teeth!)

Now she has a grand total of 7 teeth at 8 months old! Phew what a trip!

House Renovation updates

There have been a lot of changes at our house over the past 6 months especially. We had a ton of bushes pulled out of our yard for starters! That made a huge difference. and our neighbors put in a new fence also known as the great wall of china!

all the dead ivy and you can see the old fence, pretty nasty right!? And taking down the old fence lovely!

This is a bad picture but you can see the great wall.

 The next project was the basement bathroom. I wish I would have gotten a picture of what the previous owners thought was a good idea for a bathroom but thats ok. Here it is in progress, after we had to bust up some concrete floor to move the pipes for the toilet. (see previous post)

Here is the final product! Grandpa (aka our general contractor) Lead by George: The foreman. He did and amazing job! and we are so close the end I can taste it. It might be drywall dust I'm actually tasting but who knows. Check it out!

Here is a picture of the hallway partway finished. with Dallin's new room straight ahead and Sarah's room to the far left. The bathroom on the right and the family room on the left.

All the lighting is done in the basement and all the electrical has been updated! It's getting exciting. I can't wait until it's all done!

Between nursing a baby, taming my wild 3 year old and trying to keep a 5 year old interested in something other than electronics I'm preparing to teach Relief Society this sunday (my new calling) Trying to teach myself what things are important and what things are no so important. Summer has brought on a lot of fun together time and I want to keep track of it! So Stay tuned! Let's go do hard things. Ready set go!
