It has been forever since I last posted, I almost didn't remember how:) First, to appease whoever reads this blog here are two recent pictures of the kids, yes we added an addition in November of last year, that I didn't blog about. Zach is now 4 months and emery is 2. Crazy, they are already getting too big!

Second...my little brother gets home from his mission in July. We are thinking about renting our house to him and some roommates while he goes to school. So...if you know of any guys that are looking for a place to live let me know.

I know lame for only posting two pictures and then a request, but maybe just maybe I might surprise you with more.

FHE - October

In October we had a combined FHE with Justin's two brothers that live here. Tanner gave an awesome lesson on the 2000 stripling warriors. Justin and I were in charge of the games. Since it was close to Halloween we had a Candy Relay Race, Made Human Mummies and played Halloween Bingo. Angie made some awesome caramel/candy apples and a pumpkin roll. My favorite! I think I had a little too much sweets that night.
Tanner helping Rindi. What a good big brother!

Addi was so cute! She tried so hard to not spill any candy off of her spoon.

I coudn't resist not putting this picture in of Josh. He is just too cute.

Here's our two mummies.

Thanks everyone for the fun night!

Cheesy Smile

The new cheesy smile. Every child has one right?


Emery loves to climb in the bottom shelf of our fridge. Usually she doen't get to do this because the fridge door has to be open. I was fixing dinner, she was wanting me to hold her...so the fridge door was left open for 5 minutes. She was so happy with herself.

Saving the cheerios for later I guess.

One to Three

Last week my sister went on a trip with her husband. She was nice enough to let me keep her two youngest for the week while she enjoyed some much needed quiet time.

Our week was filled with playing with cousins, trips to the park, coloring, cars, trucks, water gun fights (complete with the Davy Crockett hat so our hair doesn't get wet, although Emery did not so much like this), playing drums, airplanes, puzzles, bubble baths and of course the much needed naps. Here are just a few pictures of our week.

All of this

To end the week, we of course had to make welcome home signs for their mom and dad.

I have always told Cheree Emery was meant to be a second child because she loves it when her kids are around. Although three kids kept me on my toes a lot more than my one, we sure had a fun filled week.

Sunday Best

Usually on Sundays I am scrambling to get everything ready and out the door to get to church on time. Yes, I know I only have one kid, if I have more I will adjust accordingly. Last Sunday I had a little spare time and decided to take a few shots of Emery in her Sunday best. She wasn't really into pictures but I had to document that I actually got a few pictures in on a Sunday morning.

And of course I had to throw in this cute picture from the week.

What A Mess

Emery likes to feed herself now a days. A few weeks ago I let her go at the spaghetti. She loved it - proof in pictures below!

Baby

A little while ago Emery and I went to lunch with my good friend Jacki. Like always I did not remember my camera so I did not get a picture of Jacki and Emery. Jacki was so sweet and brought Emery this cute little baby. She loves it! She carried it around everywhere with her. She would constantly give the baby hugs by holding it to one side of her face and then continue to crawl one handed. You can't really tell from this picture but here she is with her baby.

After the baby, she discovered she also like this bunny. Just like that baby she puts the bunny to the side of her face and carries it everywhere.

Between the baby and the bunny, she keeps herself pretty entertained around here. Thanks for the baby Jacki!
