Trading Spaces

This February my cousin Jessa and I did something fun.  First she came to Utah for two weeks and we hung out and did some fun stuff.  Then the girls and I went to San Diego for two weeks. We went to Disneyland and Ca. Adventure.  The girls and I had a blast.  We also did a bunch of sewing for Jessas house which was also "fun". P.S. Thanks Annie (in teacup) for all your help with my little peps!

Maes Nose

One of my favorite things about Mae is her nose.  It is a perfect little button nose.  It is turned up just enough on the end to be adorable.  Even as a baby it was so cute.  So I was freaked out when Mae pulled over our iron bar stool on her face!  These bar stools are super heavy which has been awesome for kids.  I thought her nose was broken and then when I saw the swelling and bruising I was worried she would have to have surgery.  The doctor said nothing could be done until the swelling went down and we waited to see her nose, her sweet perfect nose.  Well luckily everything is fine now, her nose looks the same and I still have her cute little face to go with it!  Man, kids are made of rubber.

February

In February my brother Joel and Sister-in-law Shannon had their sweet baby boy Joshua James.  The girls love him and are so gentle.  Shannon did well and is a good mom.  Ah the good old days, when all the girls needed was a swaddle, diaper and bottle.  Now its different but at least they can tell us what they need, or want, or are thinking, or what they don't want or anything else that can be said! Its funny what we wish away and how fast our kids grow and amaze us!

January

Well in January we had our first "Haircut", and what do they say the first cut is the deepest?  I will not mention names to protect the not so innocent but is was not my girls cutting their own hair.   I was waiting for one of them to think of it but luckily it was an older cousin who showed them the many possibilities with scissors.  Just that day I was finally happy with Elles crazy hair and that night is when it happened.  Oh well, I guess it grows back, and it could be worse and all those sayings.  

Catching Up

Here goes updating 4 months at one time.  It all starts back with Christmas...  Well after all this time what do you say.  It was great fun with our sweet girls.  I loved of course the decorating.  I talked in October about the witches that Nettie makes.  You should see her Santas they are just as amazing.  And once again I can't resist centering my decor around them.
