April 2013


Tim had an awesome time at his Clear Lake Tournament


While he was gone we got more chicks


Then we had a party with our family for Connor's birthday


While we were at the hospital waiting for Cora, Maddie, Derek and Jack spent time with Nana Codie. They had lots of fun with monster trucks and dress ups and lots of treats.


Jack says, "I did not like being a princess" every time he sees this picture!


And then we took Cora home (I'll write her story soon, hopefully!). Jack was a little hesitant for the first few weeks, but he has warmed up to her a lot. He sings to her and tickles her and always asks to hold her. And I am breathing a sigh of relief! I was really worried he was not going to like her.





Since she has been here our frequent sleep outs have moved from the living room to our bedroom, just to make things easier when we have to get up with Cora. Jack and Tim built this awesome fort on the treadmill. I guess someone should use it :)





Can I just tell you how sweet it is to dress her up everyday. Sometimes she changes several times a day. I am really loving all the ruffles and pink and sparkles. We could use some more headbands though...



Derek and Maddie started Jr. Golf and are liking it. Derek is really into it and practices in the field behind our house on most days. I remember doing Jr. Golf when I was a kid and absolutely loving it. Until another girl beat my score. Then I quit. 


We also spent a lot of time in the garden. We didn't push ourselves to much, but it was so nice to be able to get outside and move again. 






Out at lunch



The boys club




Cora really likes her Dad but it's her Mom who steals the show. 
I really love that she likes me :) 
Especially after Jack, who has always preferred Tim!


Jack helped me with Cora's first bath.



Cleaning her feet





Two weeks old with the dog.
We took pictures of Jack every month with this same dog and it was so fun to watch him grow! I knew we would do it again.

March 2013


Jack made me this sa-weet necklace at school. He was so proud showing it to me and ran out of the building holding it up. Probably the coolest mom moment I have had so far!


Jack is definitely a carnivore.
That was a lamb chop.


Tim fishing at Lake Powell



Funny Face art from school. He's pretty proud of this one. Its still hanging up :)


The girls all headed out to see the high school's Phantom of the Opera.
It was amazing! I really loved it!


Jack started actually requesting that I take his picture.
I'm all okay!!


Tausha, the kids, and I all went on a shopping trip in the city.







I really love this :)



We all had a lot of fun.


We hung out at Dad and Codie's.




And played a lot with dad.




And Jack and I finally got some nesting done in the house. We got a lot done, but still have a lot to do.





We all went to Jump N Jivin', the bounce house place.
I nearly died gasping every time a little kid landed on the floor. 
They were ok, their necks broke their falls.
The kids loved it, but
My nerves can't handle going back anytime soon.


Easter was awesome.
We could definitely get back in the camping routine very easily.


Next month Cora shows up!
