savings

We've been making up a lot of spreadsheets here lately; trying to figure out how much $$ we need to save for four college educations, four missions, and feeding four teenagers.

And then we saw this:


See that brand new tooth in there?

That's Lincoln's and it's a brutal reminder that there's something that we'd forgotten to add to our spreadsheet: Orthodontics.

Sweet Stella

Stella turned three months old yesterday. I'm tempted to say that I can't believe how the time has flown, but it's not true. Thanks to her three big brothers, I know all too well just how fast time slips through our fingers and speeds away. Which leaves me feeling particularly anxious to slow things down as much as I can.

So, please enjoy these pictures of our sweet three month old girl, while I go sit and watch her sleep. Because the next thing I know, she'll be all grown.

I'm a unicorn! {hee hee}

Jack's Perfect Morning

Grabbed my shoes and jacket and asked to go ("doh") right after I got out of bed, just like I always do. Except this time I really did get to go right away 'cause it was my turn out with Dad. We ran errands (my trusty BYU volleyball never left my side), and I got to eat a doughnut the size of my head for breakfast. Awesome.
