Happy Anniversary Tim!

Yesterday Tim and I celebrated our fifth wedding anniversary. It is amazing to reflect on what we have been through together these past five years of marriage and to see how much Heavenly Father has truly blessed us. I am so lucky to have Tim in my life and to have him be mine for eternity. He is such a wonderful husband, father, friend, and so much more. I really don't know how I snagged such an incredible guy. Tim I love you and look forward to so many years ahead! :)

And Baby Makes 5!

Tim and I are excited to announce that we are expecting a baby the end of this year! We couldn't be more thrilled to make our family a family of 5. The girls are happy to be big sisters and want to name the baby Pop (yes, after soda pop). It was so cute when Kaylie told me she had a baby in her tummy too and Jadyn told me she had a daddy in hers. We feel very blessed and can't wait to meet our new little one!

Finally... A Taste of Summer!

The past two days here have been so beautiful that the girls and I have been basking in the sun and enjoying every minute of it. It has been about 82 degrees and sunny, which is great considering it snowed as early as last week! Tim filled up our kiddie pool with water and we let them run wild for the past two days playing in that and in their Elmo sprinkler. It has been so fun to see them get so excited and have so much fun playing. When I brought them inside yesterday Jadyn said, "That was the best birthday ever!" I am not sure what she meant by birthday considering hers is in July but I am glad that she had fun. I just absolutely love this age. Hope you enjoy the pictures!

My Little Frog

This morning Tim told me to go look at Jadyn, who he put in time out, to see the wonderful tattoos she gave herself with a green highlighter. I kind of chuckled and snapped this picture before I became the stern parent to tell her why we don't do that. Later this morning as I was washing off her arms in the bath tub I asked her why she did it. She said with a huge smile, "I look like a frog! I like frogs!"

Hopefully she sticks to highlighters and doesn't move on to real tattoos in the future! :)

Elder Jeffrey R. Holland's Thoughts on Easter

There is such a wonderful video on youtube right now of the Apostle Jeffrey R. Holland of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and his thoughts on Easter. I really recommend taking the five minutes just to watch it, no matter what faith you are, because it is incredible. I know that Easter is technically over but honestly the message of the Atonement is something that we can be reminded of all year long.

The link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpFhS0dAduc . I tried to get the actual video posted on my blog but I couldn't figure out how to do it. :)

Tim's Surprise

Yesterday afternoon Tim came home for a few minutes from work to see me and the girls and he gave me these beautiful white roses. I absolutley love them and was so happy that he surprised me with them. I love my husband!

Happy Easter!

What a wonderful Easter day we had today! The girls were kind of fussy when they woke up but the minute they saw that the Easter bunny came they were so happy and excited. They loved the little gifts he brought them and loved looking around the house for eggs. Jadyn ate pretty much everything she found this morning before I could stop her but luckily I was able to save a few from Kaylie's eggs. Jadyn loved it so much that she told me she wanted to go to the mall and sit on the Easter bunny's lap! That is a big deal considering all week she has told me she is scared of him and wants me to talk to him so he won't come in our house. I was to get the stuff from him at the door, without him coming in mind you, and then to put it out myself. Now she loves him and wants to sit on his lap! Oh I love that little girl! :)

They looked so cute in their Easter dresses for Church. I had a quick photo session a few minutes before we left for Church and they were so funny hamming it up for the camera. They were coming up with all of these different poses and I just laughed and kept taking pictures. I really don't know where they came up with the crossing of the legs but it just cracks me up.

I hope you all had an incredible Easter today and had as much fun as we did. Happy Easter!
