Cousins

Shelby and I are in Colorado visiting zach, Madeline, and Everly. We are having so much fun. These girls are so cute together. 

Wagon rides

I had to wake up both kiddos to bring them to school to pick up the girls. Mac was okay about it because I gave him a lollipop as soon as he woke up. Shelby was a bit grumpy but she got over it with some puffs.  

I have also decided that Mac permanently has jam on his face. His favorite food for the time being is toast with jam. 

Mac is starting to look so big and grown up. It is quite ridiculous.  

Essential oils

I love essential oils so much that sometimes I pose for pictures like this. Haha

I just realized I had the water in the sink running. It was defrosting some frozen milk for shelbs. 

3 generations

Look at this cute picture!!

Baconator

This little girl had fun eating her bacon yesterday for breakfast. 

Candy candy candy

Mac just kept yelling "candy! Candy! Candy!" Over and over again on Easter it was hilarious. Maybe next year will we talk to him about the resurrection. 

Shelby joined in on the fun. 

Mac found lots of eggs. I have now confiscated the candy, but Cara still seems to find wrappers all over. So strange. 

April fools

These cute little fools had fun trying on a big red nose!

Mac Is doing so well with potty training. I wish we had a couple more days at home with him. But today is softball so we have to load him back up and take him to the fields. Hopefully he does well there. Wish us luck!!

Happy Easter

What a beautiful day it was. Even if we did go to bed too late, Eat too much candy, and didn't take long enough naps... It was still a great day. 

I love my sweet family and I am so thankful for them and for my savior that has made it possible for us to live again one day. 

Easter egg fun with missionaries

Last night the missionaries came over to help us dye Easter eggs and make chocolates. It was so much fun. 

8 months

I feel like Shelby is all I post about these days. But she is changing so fast that I just have to document. 

She loves nursing and has started practicing gym-nurstics she basically sits and twists and lies down and flips over while nursing. It is hilarious. She still doesn't have teeth and is my latest teether. She gets 4-10 extra ounces of breast milk through a bottle each day. This is from my frozen stash and milk from her cousin Everly who has decided to share with us. (I am hoping everly's milk will help her fatten up)

Shelby has started to be clingy to rich and I lately. She doesn't mind other adults holding her unless I am close and then she is not happy about it. However, she will smile her little heart out at you from a distance. 

Her hair seems to be coming in curly all over.  The hair on the back of her head is starting to get little baby curls too. I also got it in a ponytail today which is adorable. 

Shelbs has started pulling up to standing on the furniture. She also army crawls all over the place and ends up under tables and desks a lot. 

She loves to be carried in the baby carriers and doesn't care if she is facing me or out to the world. She also goes to bed around 6, wakes up once to nurse, and then wakes up for the day at 7. 

She isn't a huge fan of food anymore. She loved it like crazy to start but then with all the throwing up she did in the past couple weeks she isn't impressed with it. She will eat half the amount she used to and then only if she really likes it.
