Instagram Life




































Celia loves a good smoothie
Celia dresses up
Celia climbs into everything

Xander loves to be Yoda.
Was invited to a Super Hero Party and even with the offer to buy him any costume he wanted,
he chose to be Yoda!  Best use of a costume EVER!

We love taking pictures with the phone.  Can't wait to get an iphone 5 with a better camera so my pictures will be better.  It is so so nice to be able to do everything with your phone and only have to manage one thing :)

St. Patty's Day fell on a Sunday this year and I happend to have a green outfit for Celia that we bought for Free with a coupon from Kohls.  
Comment from a sweet Brother from our Ward.
"The St. Patricks day outfit contest results are in, and your daughter is the winner"

Easter came super fast this year.
We dyed eggs, we had baskets, we went to the Eagle Trace hunt on Saturday.
Sunday we went to church and then drove to Parker where Ace, Jeff's son received the Priesthood.
Jeremy was able to stand in the circle and help give him the Priesthood.







We have done Swimming lessons with Xander
Celia trys to dress herself on a daily basis by putting shirts on as pants.
She does put her own shoes on and about %50 of the time she gets it on the right foot.

Legos are still one of Xander's favorite things but now it is the guys.
His "Collection" he likes to call it.  Yoda of course is always the leader of the pack!

He also still talks non-stop about flying on an Airplane to Utah to see Jeremy give Dylan the priesthood.  The pilots let him up in the cockpit and he was able to sit in the seat!

My days are ordinary but super fun.  I love my life.

Olivia Week by Week


















 My goal is to take a picture of Olivia every week for the first year of her life.  So far, So good!  I love how you can see the changes in her eyes and expressions.  We think she may have blue eyes but we will see.  Life is so simple right now.  I change diapers, run errands, get children in and out of car seats and strollers.  I look on the computer and dream about the future and what it holds.  But I focus daily on enjoying the moment and being happy right now.  This is the only time in my life where my children will be children.  It is so short and so fast, that I have to remind myself not to wish it away.

Olivia smiled at 7 weeks and hasn't stopped.  Every time we look at her, she gives us the best grins.
