February

Can't believe February is almost gone....I haven't done really well at keeping this updated just been out of the blogging mood lately. Hopefully in March I will do better. We are looking forward to spending a week in Southern California with my family. It will be lots of fun going to the beach, and Disneyland (yes I convinced Jason that it was necessary for us to go again!) and just relaxing with my sisters my mom and dad, and having a good time. My kids are so excited to see their cousins again too.

We registered Tanner for kindergarten today....seems so crazy and I was shocked that school starts so early this year August 10th. We will be barely back from the Headrick family get together. Which we are really excited about as well since we haven't really been to Bear Lake before. It will be so nice to get out of the heat and enjoy some fun lake time.

Kylie loves to dress herself, and I really have a hard time with it. I know I should just let her dress herself so she can learn but she hardly will wear any of the clothes I buy her. One day I asked her to go and get dressed and this is what she came out with

It's not that it doesn't match but her leggings were inside out, and the shirt that she loves needs a shirt underneath....but I guess I shouldn't care at least she was dressed right! Its just that if lived any where else but in AZ she would be freezing. And I love that she has to always fix her own hair. When she does she usually uses about 8 barrettes and puts them all down the sides of her hair. Last night for FHE that is exactly what she did and she was so proud! Guess that is all that really matters is that she is happy with her style.

The other morning I was going about cleaning up after breakfast when I noticed Paige "changing" her babies diapers. It was pretty cute I love that she is so sweet with babies and loves to take care of them. Anytime we go anywhere and she sees a baby she yells baby baby. I forget that she really isn't a baby anymore!

Happy Birthday Tanner

Tanner turned 5 on the 17th. What a priviledge I have to be a mom to this sweet boy. I can't believe where the 5 years have gone......

For Tanner's birthday we had a family party and he chose to go to Chuck E Cheese. He had a great time playing the same game for the whole time (a nascar racing game) and Kylie was scared of Chuck E and spent her time crying under the table....and Paige was fine until she saw Kylie crying and decided to join in. Mom and dad loved seeing Tanner have fun but couldn't wait until the tokens were all gone so we could leave! We went home and had cake and ice cream and then opened his presents. He had a great day and is so excited to be 5 and start kindergarten this coming August!

Happy Birthday Tanner we love you!!

My girls

Oh how I love my two girls. I am sitting here at the computer listening to them talk, laugh, and be silly. Maybe it wouldn't be so cute if I really knew what they are doing...but I think I will wait for a minute and just listen. Jason went to check on them the other night and Kylie was "reading" stories to Paige. How I hope that they can develop a friendship like I did with my sisters. I was so worried for a while because Kylie was being so mean to Paige but it seems to have changed the last couple of weeks.

Every morning when I get Paige up she is immediately asking for Kylie. She absolutely adores her and it is so fun to see her want to be just like her. Kylie loves princesses and has given her love of them to Paige. It's so funny now to watch Paige get so excited to watch Ariel, or Ariel's Beginning....she sits on the couch right by Kylie and will sit and watch. Paige is the best helper she loves helping me unload the dishwasher, and put the folded clothes away, and loves to push the kitchen table chairs to the counter to help me and to get her binkie's off. She is such a daddy's girl, and every time she gets hurt she runs to her dad to make it all better. And after Jason gets home from work or a work trip all she wants is him...and won't leave his side.

Kylie has such a cute contagious laugh....she is so dramatic and has a great imagination. Today she was word girl, and anytime I called her Kylie she would remind me that she was word girl and make sure I called her that. She loves to dress up, and would wear her princess dresses all the time if I let her. She doesn't like pants or shorts and would lots rather wear a dress or skirt "that she can dance in". She says some of the funniest things although right now I can't think of any. But she is so silly and funny I can't imagine one day without her. She loves to help me make anything whether it's a sandwich or cookies, bread, or whatever she loves to be with me helping me.

I am so glad that these two girls have each other and hope that they can be the greatest friends!
