whip it, whip it good! and other AWESOMENESS!

These two whipped each other around for a good ten minuets.



We had a really fun cousin sleepover on Friday night. Six kiddos under seven. Two of those under one. And one potty training. Would we do it again? Heck ya! Pizza, Monkey Ball, Movies… Does life get any better?


Hard as it is to imagine? Yes, it gets way better! We were so blessed to not only attended Cassie Joan’s baptism, but be part of it by way of giving the prayers. I gave the opening and Jon the closing. Cassie was the only baptism in her steak this month so it really was a day all about her. So much fun!


Then we were super duper blessed to be able to go to the Temple with Barry. It’s such an AWESOME feeling being in such a holey place with your family. My Aunt Maggie and cousin Kelly watched our sweet babies so we could both go through for Barry’s first time. We thought one of us would have to stay behind, and are so grateful for Maggie and Kelly watching the kids. Sam had to rush to work, and Jamie off to home. So those two missed the photo op.


I appliqued this tie onto a onesi for Regan. I wanted him to have a church outfit, but also wanted the outfit to be comfy. Plus being strapped for cash = get creative. I’m making him a few more. We got lots of compliments on his cute outfit. I loved not having to mess with collars, ties, or vests. Regan was comfy, cute, and happy. I was happy too.

what would you do?

If a walk was the BEST and FAVORITE potty reward and there was a blizzard going? I decided to brave it. After all I couldn’t un-promise the reward. She held up her end of the bargain (oh, so much pee!) and so would I. She was ecstatic with her walk. Next time I’ll be sure to look outside before mentioning a walk for using the potty. We made it to the end of the driveway before turning around. 🙂 Oh, and Grandma Sapp they LOVE their beanies. Thanks!

E is for ear

The girl has brown hair, blue eyes, and a temper any red head/hispanic would be proud of. The boy has reddish hair, brown eyes, and is soooo mellow. They couldn’t be more different. They may not look like each other, but they have at least one feature in common. We call it the E ear. They each have one. Yes one. One ear (the right for both) has an extra cartilage ridge in it forming the capital letter E. Regan’s E comes and goes. It’s magic I guess. So anyway I suppose they must be related. 🙂
