Cute video clip

One Month

Last night we slept at my sister in law's house after attending her son's baptism. When Mya woke up this morning I was holding her facing me when suddenly a huge smile spread across her face, she was looking past me so I turned around to see what she was looking at, I followed her eyes to a small statue of Christ that was on the ledge.

She remembers him.

It was a special moment.

Happy one month birthday little Mya!

We've been busy...

Happy Remembrance day!

Photo Crazy!

Apparently we are photo crazy around here. Check out some cute kids here

New Photos

Here are some new photos since I know that is all people really care about anyway! The first bunch are some that my friend Cory did for us, and the rest were just taken this afternoon after church with the girls still all dressed up. Life with 3 girls is still going great. We are loving our little family of 5. I guess it isn't so little anymore!

Gratitude

I was thinking today about how blessed I am. Since the baby has been born (which is a blessing in itself of course) I have had so many friends, family, people in the ward stepping up to help out. I have had so many meals and treats brought over, people offering to help with the girls, my mom has taken Jadyn and Heidi nearly every day that Josh works for a couple hours to give me a break and a nap. People have dropped off gifts, helped with driving Jadyn to her ballet and swimming lessons. I just am so overwhelmed by the amount of help I have received. It makes me want to be a better person and to look for others that need my help and to be there for them. It is so nice to be so cared for and loved. Today when I walked in the door after Jadyn's ballet class, standing in the kitchen mopping my floor was my visiting teacher! (Josh had been out working in the garage and was able to let her in) what a nice surprise! I wanted to cry right there in front of her. I am so grateful to her. What an act of service. I couldn't stay because I had to take the kids to another appointment and when I got home she was still there and the house was spotless. WOW. Not only that but when she left she gave each of the girl a pack of crayons and some colouring books. She is always thinking of others. I want to be like that.

This evening I was upstairs putting laundry away and was thinking again about how blessed I am as I listened to the girls downstairs giggling nonstop and having so much fun together. I just love to hear them laughing with each other and bonding as sisters.

When I came downstairs this is what I found:

I couldn't even be upset, all I could do burst into laughter, grab the camera, and take them upstairs for bath time.

I am so blessed!

Pumpkin Carving

Today we went shopping for the perfect carving pumpkins and spent the evening in some Halloween festivities! It was fun. This is our first time pumpkin carving with the kids and they LOVED it!

All ready!

Serious concentration here

Love her expression

This one too :)


Squishing the seeds and mush is just as much fun

Carving the face

Not too sure what is happening here, a victory dance maybe?

ps. yes the streamers are STILL up from Jadyn's birthday party.
