Toilet Paper

This is what happens when I forget to shut the bathroom door!! :)


......but don't worry, we make our kids clean up after themselves!!
I was of course kidding! This was a different day that the door was once again left open! Who would think that the bathroom was such a fun place?!

Ella's Makeup!!

Ella was being so quiet one day. And we all know that quietness usually means they are doing something they aren't supposed to be! And look what Ella was doing. Her makeup all by herself. And mascara taboot! She's a professional wouldn't you think. She so nicely dressed herself in nonmatching clothes too. I screamed at first and then just had to laugh of course! And told her she looked so pretty so I wouldn't hurt her feelings!! Kids make life less boring that's for sure!! :)


My sweet little Kohen

Kohen had the flu on his birthday. And not just a fever, he threw up for 7 days. It was aweful! His 1st birthday was right in the middle of it too. So this is a picture of him opening a few gifts for his birthday. Good thing he's too little to even know or care!

This was Nate and Kohen. They had the flu together and Kohen would just lay there and not even move. I put him on our bed and he just layed his head on Nate forever. It was sweet and sad at the same time!
After looking through my other kids pictures I realized that I have no pictures of Kohen in the tub. I have a picture of everyone else as babies in the tub, but not Kohen, so here it is!! :) This is one of those classic pictures that you must have of every child, right?!
And the dice. Kohen, like all babies, puts anything and everything in his mouth. But for some reason he LOVES these huge plastic dice. The ones from Old Navy. I'm sure all of you either have one, or have seen them. The ones in the quarter machines. I hate those things! It's hilarious to see those huge dice in his mouth. If my kids get them out and leave them on the floor he darts for them. What a funny kid!

Cousins

Every time cousins come to visit I forget to bring my camera where ever we go. So these are a few pictures of the last day they were here! My kids absolutley love their cousins and want to spend every waking minute with them. The ones in town and out of town!

This is Kaylee and Chloe flashing their lovely polly pockets!
This was Ella playing with Brytan outside. I didn't get Brytan Because my camera card was full. :(
And last but not least Braxton with Jonah being "cool!"

Rewind!!

Kaylee's recital was clear in December, but I never got these few pictures posted. But even though it's a little late, I have to so show everyone how cute they are!!
After going to my neices recital, I've learned that it's an unspoken rule that the dad gives the daughter flowers after the recital. Which what dad wouldn't want to do that anyways right!? So here's Nate with Kaylee.
This is Kaylee back stage waiting to go out and dance. She is supposed to be an iceskater. She had little iceskate covers that went over her tap shoes. Isn't she a doll!!

Our New Home!!

I have had many people ask me to post pictures of our new house, so here they are. I just quickly took a few pictures of the down stairs, so you can get the an idea of what it is like. This is obviously the front of the house!
This is the kitchen, and the only reason it is painted already is because my nice friends Callie and Carla came and helped me bust out the kitchen before we moved in.


This room is the next that will be painted!! I wish that I could just do it all at once, but slowly, one by one my house will be how I want it!! ( Just in time for me to want to change the first things I've done I'm sure!!)
This is looking from the family room to the front door. Just on the right is the stairs, and on the other side of the stairs is the living room.
This is the living room, once again very plain, but honestly, I have no clue what to do in here, so until I figure something out, It will remain that way!
This is the view looking from the front door.
So that's it. We really miss our old neighborhood and house, but we are looking forward to making this our new home!

Braxton's New Room

On this wall Nate is going to make a skate board

Shelf. It will look pretty neat once it is made, but

we'll see how fast that project will get done! It's

not quite at the top of the list! :)





Nate made the magnet board, and I made rock

magnets to match the colors in his bed spread.






It's pretty simple, but I think that it turned
out ok!




This was Braxton's room before we painted it!
We rearranged the bed a little, and I think it
looks alot better!
