I figure til I can figure out pictures I'll keep updating.

We have moved to Herriman which is right near Riverton/Draper area and it is really nice. Like a little suburbia which is kinda nice when you have kids.

We are renting a nice townhouse and our ward seems pretty nice. It's baby central there, our first Sunday there we had 4 baby blessings.

Kids seem outrageously happy to have their own rooms and space. It was nice to live with my parents but I think it was just time for us to have our own space again.

I'll do a breakdown of the family:

Macey is doing great since surgery. You can tell she is hearing so much better she is trying to repeat words so much more and we are starting speech therapy tomorrow, which will be nice. She's becoming girlie which is pretty fun at the pumpkin patch we went to they had a princess area where you can put on dress's and dance on a stage and she went CRAZY...she loves princess's now and it was right up her ally. She is so stinking strong we call it freak strong. The other day at my parents house my mom said she was doing forward roll after forward roll. My mom asked had we been practicing it, we haven't she just figured it out. Funny girl.

Caden is growing up and I wish it would stop. He is at school and its funny the things he picks up:

"Mom do you know you can talk just by saying letters like "OMG" says oh my gosh." So the rest of the day he'll say "Mom IWAJ" I'm confused. He'll say "Mom I want Apple Juice"

We had the missionaries over for dinner last night and if you live in Utah that's kind of a rarity.Caden was dying to tell them a couple things they were:
-We drove to Iowa it took 15 hours one way and 12 the other and he threw up 2-3 times.
-He tried Root Beer
-He wanted to show them his Angry Birds
I thought it was funny

Me-Adjusting to life always changing. Trying to make new friends in our ward.

Eric- going to school kicking butt. I'm so proud of him and I got so lucky marrying a guy like him where school just comes to him like that. And he's working which is going well. He works with a guy who is 65 and really nice. I think he's becoming Eric's Best friend and I make fun of him about it but its cute.

That's all for now I will update with pictures when I can get them cleared off Picasa.

It's been awhile...I know

I know its kind of been awhile like 9 months but whatever. I had serious problems with photoshop. And still do so it might be sans pictures to I finally get it figured out.

I've also decided to go private, to many wack-a-doos out there on the interweb so if you would like to see the updates that I'm going to start posting, leave your email on the comments below. And get super excited to the see the pictures of a new home. YEAH!

Christmas

****If you want to see the pictures bigger just click on them to see them closer***

We had a wonderful Christmas this year. As always Caden was obsessed with Polar Express and was very concerned about being asleep when Santa comes, not so much the being good but he tried. Macey just came along for the ride.

This year I decided to be very ambitious and sew it up. I wanted to make stockings that would last us for years and I am very pleased with them. They look scrappy yet traditional. I hand stitched the names on them. They were really fun to make.

She knew she was adorable and was just eating it up at Church.

The children in their sunday best. I got Macey's last year on clearance and it had fur that I actually took off. They are so adorable!!

Caden always gets so spoiled by his Grandma and Grandpa Connie and Larry from Iowa. This year was no different he as you can tell loved all his presents from them.

Christmas Jammies they were both so cute. Macey was walking around with a bell on her neck all night.

Christmas Morning Caden was so excited and Macey...fast asleep and we left her that way. I dont think she woke up til 9:30. Caden was ecstatic to open EVERYTHING.


Everyone came over for presents and a big delicious dinner. It's near impossible to get all of them looking.

Caden's Super Mario Party

I know I am so behind but better late then never right???

Caden everyear has a different obsession this last year was Super Mario Bros.
So of course we went with that for his birthday party. He really wanted all his cousins, school friends and bradley to be there.

Here he is opening his presents from us on his actual birthday

I made Mario hats for the boys and bought tiaras for the girls. They started coloring pictures first and then we played some games. If you dont know much about Mario they wont make sense.

1st game was Musical chairs and you could sit in the chair if it had a M or L but if there was bad guy spikey your out and when your out you go get gold coins

2nd game Carry yoshi's Egg. We hard boiled an egg and they had to carry it around the chairs and when they were done they could get gold coins.

3rd was Ghost. Like Red light Green light. If the Ghost was looking red light if he wasnt go for the end line and get gold coins.

4th game was like hot potatoe but hot fireball.

At the end the kids received gold Stars

Then we had cake and cupcakes. Caden wasnt biggie cupcakes and 1-up cakes. My mom had cookie cutters from the 80s that were super mario so we made sugar cookies out of them and then we got chinese box's to make ? mark goodie bags. Overall I think it went well some hiccups but Caden had fun.
