Gwen is one!!:D

May

January

Leah's cupcakes<3

She was more interested in how her hands felt than the food!!

Everyone watching her (some didn't make it in the pic)

Finally deciding it was worth eating!

Last Wednesday my cousin turned one!! She is SO adorable(: She has been such a blessing to everyone! Babies just bring a whole different feel to our world, it's such a wonderful feeling! But we celebrated it on Friday with the usual group (Whit & court, us, and Dave & Leah [who are the parents!]) But it was really nice! Leah made cupcakes with cookie dough in the middle<3 and we had pizza because it was Friday! But Gwen was so cute to watch as we sang to her. It was a wonderful little "party"(:

It's here.

Summer is here. It's been here a 2 weeks! And we're loving it! It's been wonderful because there is an older couple in the ward that have a pool that is PERFECT for us, and it's close! So we've been going there almost everyday!(: Which is quite wonderful because when the thermometer reads 100 everyday, that's about all you can do! On this particular swimming trip the kids found a frog- and they COULD NOT leave it alone. But they were very gentle. I love summer(:

I can do it!!(:

Since my mom is on a VERY strict diet, she has decided that the older kids need to start making dinner because if she makes dinner then she snacks! So today (and most days) I am making (or helping make) dinner! Tonight was BBQ chicken with a salad (from Sunday) a fruit salad and mashed potatoes! Mhmmm it was pretty delicious!! As I have been cooking more I found a blog that I just LOVE to look at. It is called

Annie's Eats It has some really great recipes.

Happy Birthday!!:D

THANK YOU COURT!! Only Whitney's husband could do that... (:

Yes, It's been a while.... haha. But better late than never right?! May first was my mom's birthday. It was a fast Sunday. We decided she still deserved a breakfast in bed(and we even stuck to the things on her diet) Whitney and her marvelous husband (and cook) came over from there apartment just to make her breakfast! And may I just say, for a pregnant woman, that takes a lot of effort and energy! haha. HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOM<3

Family visits!!!

Some of the crew(:

Around April my mom's sister Andrea came to see us from California. She was so excited to visit as were her kids! Things sure did get crazy, but I think everyone enjoyed it. We were originally going to go to the zoo however it was SO packed! We have NEVER seen it that packed before, so instead we went to the nature center. It was very exciting, everyone had a great time... except for the bugs. I think we could all do without those!
