Red

I cant believe how fast Carlis hair has been growing lately.  We put it in the cutest ponytail the other day and I couldn't help but take a picture!  What a big girl!  

Yes!  Her hair is really that RED!!

Oreo Bug Cookie

Sundays are always so hard and next to impossible without Chad to help referee the 2 monsters!  Thanks to Jeff I was able to survive.  While I went to primary Jeff walked the halls for the last 2 hours with the 25lb Naters!  He was so tired when he got home, he was thinking about taking a nap under his highchair!  He also thought he was pretty funny!  

The best was this great Oreo cookie bug Carli made in nursery (actually, she told me Sister Dickson made it).  She was so careful with it and was so excited to take a picture with it when we got home!  After all that was said and done she ate it of course!  

Popsicles in the Bath

After a good day while Chad is out of town, the kids have been getting a special treat of popsicles in the tub!  Carli has learned not to drop them or get them wet, so she sits very carefully licking the whole thing till its gone.  Nate on the other hand...thinks its fun to see how fast it melts!  

For the birthday boy!

Mr. Mark!  Don't think we forgot to send a shout out to you!  I just haven't been blogging too much these days!  We hope you had a great and happy happy birthday up at the cabin.  Thanks for being such a great uncle to Carli and Nate!  They both love you and so do we!  Hope your day was great!  

What a Trip!

I was going to come back and make some comments, but I guess I really don't need too.  We went to the cabin and had a great time out on Grandpas boat and riding 4-lers.  Its always the same white trash fun!  

Digital Scrapbooking

Here are my first two attempts at digital scrapbooking.  There are still a few things I need to learn, but I am having fun with it so far.  Enjoy!  

A week with Friends!

Here are some pics of our busy week.  We had our friends from San Diego come for a visit.  It felt like we had 2 sets of twins, life was crazy.  Kenley & Carli got along better than expected and the boys enjoyed playing together as well!  Check out Katie's blog for more pics and stories!

Tagged, I'm It!

My friend Katie just left after being here for the week, and I am too tired to post all the pictures of the kids, so here goes my Tag.

7 Quirks or Facts about Me!

1. I don't read books.  I have tried, but I just cant seem to ever finish them.  I don't even read the really long articles in any magazine either.  Not sure why.  Kinda makes me sleepy.  :)

2. I am working on a new hobby (thanks Katie).  Digital Scrapbooking.  Not sure what I am doing quite yet, but its fun to have something to work on.  I will post pages later!  

3.  I have enjoyed our crazy life moving so often in the past.  I have meet a ton of great friends, and been able to see a lot of CA.  (A place I thought I would have never lived!)  Chad and I both are excited to settle down, but are a little afraid we will think we have to move again soon.  Dont worry, we are not!!  :)  We love it here!

4.  I am pretty organized.  My mom would say Martha Stewart organized.  I think I love the challenge of keeping things right in their place.  I don't usually let other people clean up the toys or put away laundry, I'm just too picky.  I know I will have to change, its kinda ridiculous.

5. Even after my worst days of going out with the kids (like our trip to the zoo) I know I will still do it again.  

6. Guns!  I just got my own and cant wait to shoot it.  I have a pretty good shot.  Chad and I went to a gun range on our date night and after my first round, someone said how good I was!  Chad was so proud!  Anyone up for a challenge?    

7.  I love my family.  I love how great Chad is at his new job, how funny Carli is and how much she keeps me on my toes, and how Nate is trying to say Mama and learn to walk.
