Sadie's Blessing Day

May 17 - We were so happy to have both of our families with us for Sadie's blessing. We had everyone except Nathan and Heidi. It was a such a nice day for Sadie - she looked like such an angel in white.

Sadie's 2 months old

Sadie is starting to smile and coo. It is so much fun to see her grow and become more aware of what's around her. I can't believe she's been here for two months.

I think she likes it!

This was a couple of weeks ago, but I think it is so funny. Jill, Sadie, and I went and saw a movie while the other kids were at school. I looked over at Jill and she was doing this with the popcorn. I got my camera out hoping she would do it again, and she did. She loves popcorn at the show!
This picture was on Greg's birthday. We'd finished eating lunch and Jill fell asleep on the way to Cabelas like this. She is always doing silly things like this.

The month of April

Since I am so bad at posting new things, I have to post the entire month of April at once. I only have one picture for each thing, otherwise it would be long.

Here are the kids on Easter. We had the Easter Bunny come while we were at church because we have morning church. They are getting ready to go inside and see what was left for them.
On April 18, Greg ran the SLC half marathon. The kids and I went to several spots, and it was fun to watch him run. We also saw Lisa, Jeff, and Kristen do the 5K. Way to go you guys.

April 25, my big 30 birthday. Greg took us to brunch at Little America. It was really yummy. That night, thanks to my mom and Lisa, Greg and I stayed at The Grand America. I've always wanted to stay there, and it was so pretty and relaxing. Greg also took me to see Wicked for my birthday. I'd say he did a pretty good job of spoiling me.

2 days later, another birthday - Greg. His was not so eventful, but we had a fun day going out to lunch, getting his fly pole from Cabelas, new running shoes from Wasatch Running, and taking all the kids for Thai food, Greg's favorite. We ended the night with Ian getting stitches in his lip. His front tooth came through his lip while trying to land a front flip on the tramp. I would have taken a picture, but it was pretty gross. You can ask Lisa, she saw it. Good thing we have a doctor in the house.

April 30 - another birthday. Austin turned 11. I can't believe it. He wanted french toast with strawberries and cream for breakfast. I took pizza into his class for lunch. He thought that was pretty cool. That night, we went to the movie and saw Monsters vs. Aliens.

The next day, my mom helped drive Austin's friends to the bowling alley for a party. Emma, Abby, and Jill had so much fun. They kept jumping up and down and clapping. Abby kept getting strikes. All of Austin's friends had a lot of fun. I'm sure glad birthday week is over, it is exhausting.

Gotta Love The Jazz

These boys are jazz fans through and through. On Friday, Karrie and Kent came to visit. Greg and the boys went with them to the Jazz game (not in the nose-bleed section) so it was a lot of fun. You know those things they wave behind the basket when the other team is shooting, well these boys had to bring home theirs, plus all them that were left on the floor. Aren't they funny?

Where does the time go?

Sadie is 4 weeks old! It amazes me how slow the last 4 weeks of pregnancy go, and then how fast time goes when they're born. We are slowly getting life into a routine, and everyone is adjusting to little sleep and even less quiet. Good thing we love you baby!

I can't keep Jillian away from her. She always want to hold her and kiss her and touch her!

I snuck into the room and took this picture. Isn't Alli so sweet? I just love watching her help take care of Sadie.

Dancing

My cousin, Elise, is a senior and this was at her last show for their dance group. They held a dance clinic on Saturday for young kids and on Monday, they got to perform in the show. Alli, Maddy, and Anna all did it together and had so much fun. And look how awesome Aunt Lig is! She got all the girls flowers.

Happy Birthday Mom!

A little late, but I wanted to wish my mom a happy birthday. We always have so much fun together, although, she really just wants to hang out with me so she can see the kids. She was so awesome after I had Sadie. She came everyday for a week and cleaned out cupboards, closets, my fridge, etc. She did all the things that I had wanted to do for so long, but just didn't feel like doing. She bought my favorite things for lunch everyday, and has taken the kids a lot so I can have a break and rest a little. Love you Mom! Doesn't her b-day cake look so yummy? Lisa and I got it for her, and it was so good!
