Bailey's Birthday

finally a use for the deer in the living rm

everyone with their stuffed animals

Bailey turned eight last week and it was her year for a party so we had an animal party... She still loves horses but has now rounded out with a love of all animals. ANY and ALL. I have caught her bringing flies home in her back pack.. (don't ask me why) Anyways... I found a good deal on un- stuffed animals online that you could stuff at your house and I made outfits for the animals.. (I cut up a newborn oneies and made a shirt and panies) and a skirt for each girl to dress their animals up in. It was fun and all the girls had fun whew I am glad we dont have a party for another 2 years.

Bailey's Taking the Plunge

Bailey is getting baptized on April 10, 2010

at 10 am.

..Like bunnies

We are weak.... we tried to resist. Bailey wanted a kitty for her birthday Thats all just a kitty. Some friends of ours in the ward have bunnies and Jake thought this was a better option since they could be outside and can't meow. So we went to look and we ended up with two... (Girls) so that they can keep each other company and they were so cute. The kids have been playing with them all week. Zane isn't too sure of them and doesnt want to touch them and Bailey and Jenny learned the art of dressing live animals up in doll clothes.. who needs barbies (we do have them btw I am sorta girly) Oh, the girls each named them..... Bailey named hers Cotton and Jenny named hers Nuts... (she said because hers looks like a peanut, but she giggles everytime she says it so I am not so sure)

High heels baby

BANG!! BANG!!

My almost eight year old.

Bailey got her first pair of high heels.... she was so excited, so excited I felt a little bad. I used to think I was cool when I was younger and thought well knew that I was gonna be the coolest mom. Now I am not so sure maybe I am not so cool and not girlie enough with my girls. So anyways Bailey was thrilled and looks so grown up and Jenny however was confused ..... she thought they looked like guns.

Binky Boy

Zane will not take a binky but he needs something. He has been using his old bottle nipple to comfort him lately. I know it is too late to even think of the binky... but this little boy.....i dont know

JENNi-FUR

An old picture but so cute....

Jenny came home from school the other day and told me that she wanted to go by her nickname JENNiFUR. I told her no thats not a nickname and that isnt your real name, you are just jenny. She quickly said that she hates being just jenny because JENNiFUR sounds cooler like a dinosaur or a tree. I thought that was funny.

INSANE ZANE

My other son is CRAZY. He is now 14 months and finally walking a little. Again, I realize that these little spirits come into our families with their own personalities. Zane has already chipped his front tooth, lost a fingernail, I think I counted  5 bruises on his face from last week alone,(I called Jake 2x to ask what exactly to look for in a concusion) , has at least 2 baths a day and is fearless. He is busy, busy, busy. He climbed out of his crib and landed on his head and learned how to climb into the bathtub last week. Josh was such a different baby calm, quiet, neat and so easy going. Zane will already throw full on tantrums on the ground if you shut a door or take away something from him. 2 sons and so different and 2 girls and so different.Some are easier to get along with and I am SCARED for the teenage part. I just hope they all grow up knowing I love them all the same. Heavenly Father just knew he had to sent the calmer ones first so I would think I could handle Jenny and Zane.
