They grow so fast!

This post won't be long....it's been a rough few days, it is late and I am tired. I have been meaning to post this for a few weeks...so I decided to take a couple minutes and actually do it. :)



At the beginning of this year Aidan moved from nursery into primary at church. I can't believe he is already in PRIMARY....it seems like just a few months ago we brought him into nursery. He seems to love primary and we haven't had any issues with him in there...except for potty breaks.

Cameron is now in nursery. Usually babies don't go into nursery until they are 18 mo. But since Aidan and all the other older kids moved up into primary there were only 2 other babies in nursery, so they said Cameron could come in early. He has actually been going in for a few months now for about an hour just to get used to it. He seems to be enjoying it so far (keep your fingers crossed) and hasn't cried since the big kids moved up to primary.

Of coarse I had to capture their big day on film.....enjoy!



My little Sunbeam. I took 20 pics just to get this one...he isn't exactly smiling but at least I was able to get his whole face. Who would want to get their picture taken when they could be running around with their friends?

Our sweet sweet Cameron....who is obsessed with wiping his nose. Whenever we wipe his nose he needs a tissue to carry around with him for the next 1/2 hour to constantly wipe his nose....way to cute.

Also Aidan just recovered from being sick he had a fever of 103.7, and was like a lump on a log for a few days. We gave him Tylenol which would bring his temp. down to around 102ish...to give him some relief. I can't believe how good he was. He hardly ever cried, but he just wanted to be held and carried everywhere. He also slept in our bed which meant I didn't sleep because half of me was hanging off the bed. He is doing great today and is back to his old happy self.

(o.k so this post was a little longer than I anticipated...thanks for reading :)

Merry Chirstmas!

We hope everyone had a great Christmas like we did. We sure did miss family that are away though. Christmas Eve we went to Rich's Auntie Laurie's house. We had a lot of fun visiting, eating, and of course opening presents....and boy there were a TON of them. Most of the time I hadn't finished opening a presents when another one would be handed to me. Aidan and Cameron received wonderful new toys and cloths. We were sure blessed. After all the gifts were unwrapped Aidan enjoyed throwing wrapping paper back and forth with his Aunts and Uncles. Here are some pictures from Christmas eve and Christmas Day.











Just after we got home Santa's elves dropped off some gifts at the front door. Aidan got new "car" slippers, Cameron got a new touch book, and Rich and I got new PJS. It is usually a tradition that we all get new jammies, but Santa couldn't justify getting the kids more when he new others would be giving them pjs as well. (I think they have enough to get through almost 2 weeks without washing, which is sometimes a good thing) We were finally able to get 2 tired kids to bed so Rich and I could get ready for Christmas morning. Cameron woke up at about 4:30. Rich was so nice to take care of him. By the time Aidan was awake....Cameron was sleeping. (see next picture) Aidan was so excited and eager to open gifts. This was the first year that Aidan really understood everything. It was so fun to talk to him about Santa throughout the season. It was also a great opportunity to teach about the true meaning of Christmas and our Savior.


Rich got a Garmin









What a mess! But we had so much fun!






Cameron got this broom that talks and makes noises as you sweep.,.... he loves to sweep

And this is just SOME of their stuff....there is a bunch that isn't visible or even in this picture. Thank-you everyone for all the gifts. We love them!
