A Fabulous February!

Image
By
Well, today was one of those days.  
You know, the days you barely make it through.  
The days that you ball with your baby instead of being strong for them.  
The days that you want to just run and hide.  
The days you are pretty sure could not get any worse.
Yep, that was today.

While I am waiting for the hubs to get home I decided to blog.  Mostly so I can look at the cute pictures of my children which would soften my heart, which is in much need of softening today. Guess what, it worked.  As soon as I opened up the picture folder to find something to post I saw this picture and just melted.  
Did you know that these two are best friends.  And I really do mean Best Friends.  Of course they fight, nag, and bicker, but so do all best friends.  But lately (aside from today), they have just been loving on each other.  Long hugs.  Asking each other for help.  Reading to each other.  Making each other laugh hysterically.  It is the best!

Here is a random assorment of some of our Fun Fabulous February!

They love to make tunnels together.  And go through each other's tunnels too.

This is here little spot at my parents.  She loves to sit here.

And sometimes she even shares the seat.

After about 2 full years of not even allowing P to touch the swings, P finally loves them again!



 Jeff and I started a new tradition.  On V-day we wrote each other notes using conversation hearts.  They were awesome!  His made me literally Laugh Out Loud!  We will most definitely be doing that again.
P is trying to be done with naps but it isn't working for either of us.  Some days he does nap and other days like today, he goes to sleep at 6:00 pm because he is so exhausted.


Fun at the Airport

MONSTER grapes I bought

This boy cracks me up!

Em has a new found love of pockets.  Pants pockets, sweatshirt pockets, any pockets.  It is adorable.

She got her blood drawn to test for the egg allergy.  I was fully expecting to hold a thrashing and screaming child but she didn't even make a peep!  What a champ!

She is also obsessed with being naked.  She is currently into taking off her own diaper.  This doesn't make me happy especially on days like today that the end result is an awesome stinky pile of poop on my carpet.

And they of course love to help me make frosting.

Who couldn't love these faces?
So yes, today was hard.  But I am still so love with these kiddos.  They are the light of my life and where the majority of my Joy comes from.  There are not words to express how deeply I love these kids.  But I must say, there is a reason Heavenly Father makes them so dang cute!  :)

Here is to hoping that tomorrow is filled with more joys than tears.

I need a haircut ASAP! This is me saying, "I'll smile if you ignore my hair." Don't get me wrong, I am really excited I have long hair, I love having long hair , but it needs a little TLC. It has been a few months since I have even got a trim and I am still re-couping from a not so good hair cut. The last few times I have really CUT my hair, not just a trim, I was not pleased with the results. Now it would probably help if I was willing to pay more than $10 for a hair cut . . . but I'm Mrs. High Pockets as my father calls me and it is really hard for me to spend money on my hair. So I need your help! What do you think I should do? Before you make any suggestions you should know: It MUST be able to go back into a ponytail!!!!!!! My hair is STICK STRAIGHT My hair will not curl to save my life (via over night curls, hot curls, even curling irons, they just don't work) I want and need something EASY! I do not like to spend time on my hair and I don...

Em's Blessing

By
Emily's Blessing day was so great! Since we were moving home so soon after she was born, we decided to just wait until we got out here to CA so our family could be there for it. It was pretty low key compared to P's (and by that I mean less family there) but was still just as wonderful. Jeff gave a beautiful blessing. It was also special because she wore the dress I was sealed to my parents in. Jeff wasn't a fan of how long it was for such a small baby, but it was so neat for her to wear something that is so special in my family. The P-man looked like a little stud in his outfit too! I wish I would have gotten some of the two of them together, o-well. It was a fabulous day! Thanks so much for all the family and friends that were there, it meant so much to have you there and we missed those who couldn't come! Isn't she so perfect! I love this picture of her laying on the grass. She is so pure and clean and perfect ! I love her!

Disneyland

By
A little late but . . . We Went To Disneyland! So you may or may not know that we went to Disneyland back in July. It was so much fun! As we were planning the trip I was really worried about how it would be taking 2 babies there, in my mind they were way too young to do anything there but boy was I wrong! All of us had a great time and we all went on tons of rides, even Emily! Here is a list of all the rides we went on: (The bold ones were P's very favorites) Disneyland Railroad Train Enchanted Tiki Room The Jungle Cruise Tarzan's Tree House Pirates of the Caribbean Haunted Mansion Winnie the Pooh It's a Small World Story Book Land canal boats King Aurthur's Carousel Dumbo Mad Tea Party Tea Cups Peter Pan Mr. Toad's Wild Ride Pinocchio Finding Nemo Submarine Autopia (Cars) Did you know babies could do this much! I sure didn't! I even nursed during 4 of the above mentioned rides which was so nice and saved tons of time! They both did so well on all of the...
