I love my beautiful Children

(Looks like freckles but its really spaghetti sauce on her face).
I think my kids are just too cute. My little miss has become increasingly clever. I've been giving her five minute warnings before doing a new activity. She has really picked it up to were she will ask to "play 5 more minutes" before eating, sleeping, or leaving the house. She also loves to climb "up high" on top of the window ceil, her play kitchen and the bathroom sink. It is really hard to keep a straight face when I check on her for naps or bed time and she is sitting on top of her little kitchen. And of course her excuse for everything... "Not yet go potty, it's too hot." While it is still warm here, I'm not quite ready to believe it is too hot to pee.

James laughed for the first time Sunday at the R.S. broadcast. A sister was cooing with him and then he giggled with genuine delight. I loved it.

Thank you Heidi

Before moving to Texas my friend told me to always check my shoes. I'm so glad I did.

Little Stud

Here's our stud. He is lifting his head so well. Can you believe he is only two months old.


He is now 15lbs and 7oz. I love my little chunk. Check out the legs.

Our First Roach

Well, we know it would happen eventually. I spotted it hanging out on the backside of one of our living room chairs and called Seth to help rid us of our little visitor. He grabbed the vacuum but I didn't want that things body still in the house. Not to mention it would probably crawl out and get us in the night. I grabbed a glass, but as I moved closer it scattered to the top of the chair. Seth moved in to look at it and it ran again... it is now somewhere in my living room. I finished reading my scriptures with my feet on the couch.

Dancing through the Decades!

Seth and I went to our first Texan Dance. It was themed "Dancing through the decades." They encouraged us to dress up in styles from our favorite decade. I found this dress in a box full of potential dress up clothes for the little miss. There were a few tares that I stapled (I'm out of sewing needles for my machine) and it might have ripped a little throughout the night, but overall it was fun to wear. I won the 1980's costume contest (I'm not sure the 80's are my favorite but I had the dress). There was a nice turn out and pliantly of food. We took our little stud. He actually was awake for a lot of the dance but was calm as usual. Seth and I both had a blast despite turning into pumpkins a little after 10:30pm.

A bit of Mommy and a bit of Daddy.

James made a face a few days ago that really looked like his Daddy...

And then he was working out just like his Mommy...



He is such a good mix of us both.

Here is another picture of our little stud:

So we were heading out the door to pick up a dryer and Olivia says "It's raining." I honestly didn't believe her until I looked outside and sure enough it was like a monsoon. Do you like the lake in front of our house. I think it is a nice addition to the neighborhood.
