Lots of new posts!!

I was very far behind on updating the blog...but finally did it today!! I put a bunch of new posts so keep on scrolling down to see it all :)

Caemlyn's haircut

I got tired of Caemlyn's long, messy hair...so I chopped it off this morning by myself. You can't really see, but her curls are still there!!!

Before

After...once it was all dried, it got a lot shorter with the curls

Hanging out with my sister

We went to the park with my sister, Marjory. It was fun and the girls liked being outside. My sister took these pictures on her iphone and I stole them...thanks Marjory :)

This is what happens when you pee in the bushes...all over the bottom of your pants!

Mommy and Brooklyn

Sisters...even wearing matching outfits!

Brooklyn just turned two months old. It has really gone by fast. We are keeping busy with three kids. Brooklyn is the 50th percentile for her height and weight. She definitely did not like getting shots at her check-up. She is smiling all the time and starting to "talk" to us. Brooke is super cute and I think she is a laid back baby. She does hate the car and will scream the whole time we are driving...that is no fun! Addi and Cam love their little sister and always want to be around her.

Trip to the Phoenix zoo

We went up to Phoenix last week and spent the day with my nephew, Joshua. We took the kids to the Phoenix zoo. That zoo is so big that we have never made it through the whole zoo yet, but we love going! We saw some cool animals, but Phoenix is really hot and the kids just wanted to play in the water the whole time.

I thought this was cool...the giraffe bending over

The monkey village is my favorite part of the zoo

The kids eating lunch. They did not like the ducks coming up to them and trying to eat their lunch

Addi's first day of school

Addi started preschool this past month. She is so excited and even gets to ride the school bus to school.

Our backyard friend

While the girls and I were playing in the backyard, we found this tarantula. He is our new backyard friend. Our dog kept sniffing him. We haven't seen him since that day...which is ok by me!

Happy Anniversary!!!

Happy Anniversary!

Ben and I have been married for six years!!! It has gone by so fast. Ben is the best husband and I love him so much. He helps me out with everything and will do anything for me. He definitely is my other half :)

We didn't celebrate at all, Ben worked that day and I started school. But, we are going to celebrate it this month by going to the Better Than Ezra concert. We are very excited :)

Ben's mom came down to help

I was a very bad picture taker and only took a few pictures when Ben's mom and my mom were here. Ben's mom was a huge help to me. She took complete care of Addi and Cam while I took care of Brooklyn. She took them to church and playgroup. And she also took care of Brooklyn so I could get some sleep!! Thanks so much! Ben's brother was also able to come down and hang out for a couple of weeks. It was nice to see him since he is about to leave on his mission for two years.

Caemlyn loves to cuddle

Addi and Brooke with Grandma

Visit from my mom

A couple of weeks after Brooklyn was born, my mom was able to come out and help me. It was perfect timing since she came when Ben was going back to work. She took care of the older girls while I took care of Brooklyn and tried to get some sleep. Between Ben's mom and my mom, I had some great help. Thanks so much for helping us. Addison and Caemlyn loved spending time with both grandmas.
