My Little Buck-A-Rooster

Zachary is 8 1/2 months old and it's hard to believe how much he's changed. The biggest change is how much he weighs!!! Drum roll please. . . he weighs a whoppin' 22lbs. (according to our bathroom scale, that's only 5lbs less than his sister who is 2 years older than him!) He is a BIG boy and would LOVE life if you carried him around everywhere, but since he is a solid boy, I can barely stand to carry him in my arms for a five minutes! He gets heavy, plus he leans every which way. His big, blue eyes are irresistable and his humugous Grin is unstopable! We love our little Buck-A-Rooster, but hope that he will not become MOBILE anytime soon!!! 8)

Hangin' with the Megan's

Ever since High School my twin and I have had 2 friends both named Megan. The four of us did a lot together, which makes for good laughs and fun memories. We have stayed in good contact and get together every once in a while, which is always something I look forward to. This past weekend we went to Deseret Start and saw the play "Home School Musical." It was one of the FUNNIEST plays that I've seen at Deseret Star and would suggest it to anyone! Afterwards we went back to someones house to talk, so we could catch up on all the NEWS!! It was such a fun time, as always! P.S. Megan Sucher is PREGNANT! Congrats!!! I'm so excited for her!

Super Bowl Party

Super Bowl Sunday has always been a PARTY for us! This year the girls decided to just stay at their own homes and party with the kids and let the guys get together to watch the game. Well they decided since we had the biggest T.V. they would come to our home. It was a PARTY!! (of course!!) I hope they had fun even with 2 kids around to be a little loud! SORRY!

As you can see, Zachary enjoyed his first super bowl. Hangin' with the guys eatin' junk is the life. He even enjoyed the commerecials in 3-D.

By the way, the best part about our BIG T.V. is it only cost $50.00!! Yep, we got a steal of a deal on that baby!

Priness Fever. . .

Emma is our resident Princess! Every day she wakes up and the first thing she does is dress herself in a dress, put her crown on, and load on the jewelry! That's also the first thing she does when she wakes up from naps, since I make her take off the jewelry for bed time. She even insists on having PRINCESS hair done everyday! She has a very specific criteria for Princess hair, so that is why it's done the SAME EVERY DAY! For those of you who have just bobbed over to my house unexpected, I am sure you have witnessed my princess all decked out, hopefully she was at least MODEST!This isn't the "prettiest" picture of her in her Princess get-up, but it's CLASSIC! This is how she looked one day after nap time! Luckily Daddy was there to catch the moment of Perfection! Not only is the crown upside down, but the look is PRICELESS!Even Zachary has caught the FEVER, with the help of his Sister! She puts the crown on his head and for some reason he is ALWAYS Priness Jasmine. Well, I have informed her that boys are Prince Charming's not Princess's. So now she calls him Prince Jasmine. . . Whatever works!!!Daddy has also caught the FEVER!! He got the Princess Crown on his snomobliling helmet, thanks to an unknown princess! Unfortuanately he didn't wear is on his helmet the WHOLE day of snowmobiling!! That would hav been quite the statement! (However, I think he has his own Princess Statement to make as he PROUDLY Prances around the Job Site, every day, with a PINK Hard Hat with some feather little thing hanging off of it!!! Someday I will get a picture of that TOO!!!)Yesterday we went shopping and found some stick on earrings, pretty hair accessories, and a Priness Tu-Tu! She has now resorted to wearing somewhat NORMAL clothes!!!The last thing we found shopping yesterday were these princess slippers!! She was in LOVE the moment she set eyes on them!! The moment I saw them I knew they were not something that I buy, because I think they are too expensive. I tried to calm her down by saying we had lovely dress up princess shows at home in many colors, but she wouldn't stand for it. . . Finally I looked at the price tag and to my PLEASANT surprise these Princess Slippers were a Perfect Princess Price. . . $1.00!!! YIPEE!!!! She loves them, and I know they will be well worth the $1 I spent on them!!!!

I love all the PRINCESS'S I have in my family!!!

2 Kids in the Bathtub

Ever since Zachary was born I have wanted to take a picture of both of my cuties in the bathtub. Well Zach is finally old enough that I can bath the 2 together and Emma LOVES it! I got some really fun photos and here are my 2 favorite ones!! The bathtub kids
All bundled in their towels. . . I love to bundle them both in their towels after bath time and just hold my snuggly, clean kids.
