St Patrick's Day

Our kids really look forward to St. Patrick's Day. Every year we set a trap for the Leprechauns. This year we caught a sock so we are getting closer. The leprechaun turned our juice and toilet water green, left treats for the kids, put green and gold glitter all over by the treats, threw puzzle pieces all over the table, and knocked down chairs all over the house. The kids get so excited to see what pranks the leprechauns will pull.

Once There Was a Snowman

Last week on Monday we got some major snow. Our neighbor measured and said we got 16 inches. It was the perfect snow for building a snowman. Those of you that are familiar with Utah, know that most of the time we get powder. Great for skiing, not so great for snowballs and snowmen. Needless to say Kyler was pretty excited. We had a blast making our snowman. He lasted about a day and then he melted. All that is left of him now is his scarf, eyes, nose, mouth, and arms which are still sitting on our lawn.

6 Months Already!




I am sad my time with Stella as a baby is flying by. We went in for her 6 month appointment and she now in the 50th percentile for weigh at 15 lbs. 9 oz. She is in the 98th percentile for height at 27.75 in. The doctor said she is long and skinny. She is still a needy baby. With her being our last, I am happy to hold her so it works for both of us. At night when she gets fussy she is starting to want only me. Poor Dan when I am not home on Tuesdays. She is loving food. She can sleep anywhere. She even fell asleep in her jumper the other night. She likes chewing on blankets and burp clothes. She is almost ready to crawl. She does this thing where she rotates on her tummy. Stay tuned for her 6 month photos that Emilie took today!
