For the love of cars

Cameron and his cars.  Love this boy!!

Valentines Day

Our valentines this year was lots of fun, candy, cookies and cousins.  We missed our dad, he had to travel that week we wished that he could have been here with us. 

We started the day with cinnamon rolls, and eggs, and the kids headed off to their school parties.  Tanner had strep for the second time in a manner of weeks and was just able to make it for his class party.  We then had our cousins over and had a grand time decorating sugar cookies, playing wii, and letting the kids run wild outside.  I enjoyed the conversation with other adults and then met my mom and headed out to dinner.  The kids were wasted by the time we got home but I think that their day turned out great. 

My favorite part of the day was reading our "love" notes that we wrote to each other.  I saw the idea on a blog last year and just loved the idea.  Each of us picked a name and then wrote the reasons we loved that person.  The kids loved it and it was amazing to read what they wrote.  Kylie had me in tears (she had my name) and each of the notes were so heart felt and sweet.  It was a fun tradition that I intend to keep every year! 

Chloe and Cameron

 Love that double chin

Here are just a few pictures of my littlest baby, Cameron, and Paige.  Sure love them all!

Chloe's Blessing

We were able to bless Chloe on January 8th.  This was the first time that we blessed a baby in our home ward.  Tanner, Paige, and Cameron were blessed in my parents ward and the ward that I spent my teenage years, and Kylie was blessed in California with cousins Callie and Brynlie in the ward Jason grew up in.  It was a great day, we had lots of family with us and are so grateful to have family so close.  Unfortunately the Headrick side of the family disappeared before I could get a picture, and Jason and my kids went to class. 

The blessing was beautiful, and Chloe was very well behaved.  We sure love this little girl and are so grateful she came to our home!

Happy Birthday J!

We had lots of fun celebrating Jason's birthday.  The girls decorated the study complete with felt hearts and pictures.....I should have got a picture of it.  We ate breakfast together and then Jason went to work in the study and we got balloons, and some chocolate covered cinnamon bears. 

We had a great night and ate dinner,  had pumpkin pie, and stawberry shortcake.  J got some new shoes, a laser pen, and some clothes.  The best part was being able to go out on a date Saturday.   It had been so long and we were able to have a nice dinner and spend some time together. 

I love my hubby!  Can't believe that it was 10 years ago that you proposed.  I love you more than ever and am so grateful that you take such good care of us!  Happy Birthday, and don't worry you aren't too old yet ;)!

2 Months

We took Chloe to her 2 month appointment on the 3rd of January.  She is doing really well, and is getting big too quickly!  She weighs 12 lbs 8 oz, is now 24 inches long, and head is 40 cm. 

She is getting so fun, loves smiling and watching her brothers and sisters.  Is sleeping so well, she will go down at about 8:30-9:00 and sleep until anywhere between 5:00 and 6:00.  She is talking and cooing, and loves kicking her legs (I think she looks like she is running a marathon).  She loves sucking on her lower lip. 

We sure love her and I am glad that she is a happy baby!

Christmas

We had a great Christmas this year, we were all so spoiled!   Santa was very generous to us we must have been pretty nice.  We got up and opened our gifts from Santa, and from Jason and I.  The kids were so excited and surprised.  Santa brought each of them a new outdoor toy.  Tanner got the green machine (which I wish I could ride) Kylie got a new bike, Paige got a balance bike, and Cameron got a plasma car.  It was fun to watch each of them open their gifts and love them all so much.  Tanner also got a sleeping bag, fishing pole, Arizona Diamond back hat, and an Eagles jersey.  Kylie got her bike, some TOMS, clothes, sleeping bag, art supplies.  Paige got her bike, clothes, toms, a jewelry box, and a doll with some clothes.  Cameron was so excited about his plasma car, he also got some cars from cars 2, a jersey and some clothes.  Chloe was so excited for her 1st Christmas.  She was so good and loved just watching the kids open their presents.  Jason got a pair of noise reducing headphones for all his travels.  And I got some perfume, gift cards.  We had a great morning.  

After opening gifts we went and ate breakfast and then got ready and went to church.  After church we headed to my parents where we all got spoiled even more.  I was so happy I got a Silhouette machine that I have been dying to have.  Lots of projects coming so stay tuned!  It was a great day full of family and fun, and yummy food.
