Little Ms. Beethoven...

I know, I know...Grace gets way too many picture's on here! I swear I'll try to catch the other kiddo's and post them soon too.

Grace is pulling up on EVERYTHING now, especially the piano which she now has the habit of pounding on (as hard as a 9 month old can pound that is.) One of these days she's going to fall and kill herself I just know it! I'm constantly running after her to save her because the floors are slick that her chances of NOT falling are extremely slim. She's had many a fall already...my poor babe! :0

I thought this picture was pretty funny. Grace LOVES her baby dolls, but she is not opposed to playing with trucks now and then either! She sat and played with this dump truck for quite some time!

President Gordon B. Hinkley

I just want to say how much I will miss our Prophet. When I heard he had passed away I was so sad and unhappy about it, but at the same time I think it's so wonderful that he gets to see be with his sweet wife and also with our Savior. He was was the prophet at the time I gave birth to all five of my children, and he has a special place in my heart. I just love him for all he has done for this church. He will be missed!

Ahh...To Be A Kid Again.

Once in a while I'll listen in on the kids when their really getting their imaginations going. On this occasion they had their friend Natalie over and were pretending they were all homeless...haha. They were collecting canned food and everything. Grace was the baby of the group, all siblings abandoned by their parents. Where do they come up with this stuff??

I know...It's A Little Scary.

Halee and I did our own "at home" facial masks a few days ago. I have never done that with her, but it was so much fun! If you're wondering why we are barely smiling, it's because our faces were SO stiff we could barely move our mouths! Chris got a kick out of this. The boys just kept saying "Why would they do that??"

This is so awesome!

I found a website that takes your blog pages and pictures and creates a hard back book out of them. I just kept thinking about what I would do to save all of my posts so my kids could one day look back at our everyday lives. I'm so excited! They are also pretty reasonable too! Here's the web address if you want to check it out...

Runnung Woes...

I bundled up the Christian and Grace this morning, and decided to go for a run in the jogging stroller. Boy will I never do that again! The kids were great, the weather was tolerable, but running with a stroller was HORRIBLE! I will be hitting the treadmill next time, because running with a stroller is not for me. :0
