Why My Kids Love Vacuuming Day

Disney Family Nite

Yay! Chris came home early & we spent the evening at Disneyland. Love this place.

April Re-cap

Enjoying the break between General Conference sessions in early April at Gma Tigger's house. Beautiful weather and great to hear the words of the prophet together as a family.

Vincent making Spring/Easter crafts - one of his favorite activities.

A cold morning at Gma Cooper's Easter Egg Hunt at San Antonio Heights fire station. Thank goodness Gma had sweaters for the girls b/c it was cold and wet.

Hadley posing by a horse (I missed the cute bunny ears that the horses were wearing).

The kids came home and dyed easter eggs with A.Molly (Two things I don't do: dye easter eggs & make/decorate Christmas sugar cookies - thank goodness the kids have Molly.)

Lauren getting an impromptu bath & not enjoying the help from big brother.

Hadley playing in the dollhouse she built. My favorite is how the tricycle provides one of the walls - she is always fun to clean up after.

A fun visit from A.Laura & Gma Tigger. They certainly tried to tire Laura out. Here they are playing choo choo train. (Actually Hadley is going underwater while playing Magic School Bus.)

Lauren & Gma playing on the laptop. (It was a Christmas gift for Hadley to learn her letters/numbers but she has probably touched it twice since then. V & L love the thing.)
Getting ready for the first swim of the season.


Tired - but not leaving mom's side in the kitchen.

Happy Birthday Vincent!

Vincent turned 3 today! Where better to celebrate than - DISNEYLAND!! First trip this morning was to the doctor and . . . no shots! A.Molly had a sleepover and came with all of us.


Yesterday we celebrated his birthday with all of his Grandparents, A. Molly and U.Brig. He requested a football cake and Molly happily obliged.

He loved all of his gifts including a book made by A.Laura, car toys, a new helmet, dominos, a zoom-o, and new clothes.
A little about him: If you come to our house you will notice spray bottles that are in 'time-out' because the boy LOVES to go around spraying his sisters or things that are leather, upholstered or carpeted. Yesterday Chris sprayed him to give him a taste of his own medicine and he had a breakdown - there was no sympathy.
He is full of questions and extremely curious as to why he can't have oreos or fruit snacks for breakfast. I think I've explained it but he'll try his luck every morning anyway.
Loves his blankie - holes and all.
Kicks and throws with his left foot and arm. (For some reason Chris is very excited by this fact)
"Potty? What's that?"

"Do I look comfortable?"

Just thrilled to be sitting at the big kid table.
