Sunday Photo Shoot

I had initially sat the baby up on the couch so i could snap a few pics of him before i changed his clothes, but its not always that easy when you have Mr. Hollywood always wanting in the pic...


So I decided i needed to take pics of all the kids, they were still dressed cute from church, I'm sure glad I did!

LOVE

BIG SIS



BROTHERS

The Rock himself

Aren't they the cutest!? I love my babies!

Happy BIrthday Camille Rosa!

Today is my spunky little sisters bday, so i thought i would just write a quick blog to say HAPPY BIRTHDAY SISTER! I hope it was a happy one! I love you and wish i could have been there to celebrate!

This picture is when my mom chaproned camille with her Show Stoppers (and my prego self tagged along) at Disneyland in December.

Happy St. Patricks Day!

Ok so im a couple days behind, but better late than never right? I was thinking out St. Patricks day all morning and I didn't really have the energy to do a big craft mess or anything with the kids so i just decided to change the color of lunch. I bought the Annie's brand of Shells and White Cheddar cheese (so i could succesfully dye it green) and added food coloring to the water that the shells were cooking in, then i also added food coloring to the milk before i poured it in the mixture. So they had green mac and cheese and i dyed thier ranch dressing green, dyed their milk green, and seved them some yummy green grapes (and orange oranges and carrots). They both ate it! I was certainly supprised considering Nehemiah doesnt eat anything thats green! It was fun and the kids enjoyed it!

The Mask

We have this ski mask in our house, not sure where it came from, but its black and we figured how scared Michelle was of it one time when we went sledding Chris grabbed it to wear and Michelle freaked out, so Chris didnt wear it. It is well known in our house that the ski mask is scary and Michelle doesnt like it.

Today, our instigater (Michelle) got Nehemiah spanked, we figured out after the fact it wasn't Nehemiahs fault, Michelle just knows when to scream to get him in trouble. A few minutes after the spanking we here Michelle screaming followed by Nehemiah laughing. So Chris peaked around to corner to see what was going on, come to find Nehemiah putting the infamous ski mask on and standing with it on in front of her till she was blue in the face from screaming, then he'd take it off and laugh.

This is Michelle just looking at the mask on the floor...


This is our scary boy wearing the mask ******Michelle already had gone to bed******* He and Daddy were having a good time scaring eachother.



SCARY HUH? Maybe....just maybe Michelle learned not to mess with her brother. I'll keep my fingers crossed but i wont count on it.

Park!

We have been lucky enough to have several sunny, warm(50's), beautiful days in a row, so we had to take advantage of it and take the kids to the park. (its probably going to snow 3 feet this comming week....) Anyways, Chris tried teaching nehemiah to shoot some baskets. Nehemiah enjoyed it but he clearly prefered to be running around kicking the ball, i think he's really going to like soccer.

Oh PS thats our new ride in the backround!!! YES the sweet white Suburban!!!


Michelle enjoyed the playground and her ball... She's a diva.


Baby Rock hung out in his carrier. Thank heaven for an easy baby!

We're Back!

Ok so its offical, Im coming back to the blog! So for some updates, Michelle turned ONE last October, Nehemiah turned THREE last month and baby Rocky Aiava was born Febuary 18th! Yes ladies and gentleman that puts our total to THREE children under the age of THREE!

Little Monsters

The kids were playing in Nehemiahs room (or so i thought), so i was enjoying some quiet time, when i realized, quite time doesn't exsist....and that motherly instinct kick in and i knew they were into something. Sure enough they found daddys hair gel! My first instinct was to get mad, but then i couldn't help but remember the pictures of me at that age sitting on the bathroom floor by myself cover from head to toe in vasaline. Needless to say I let it slide, it made for some cute pictures!

*Updates*

Ok so for starters, CHRIS GRADUATED!!!! YAY FINALLY! :)
<
We move to Houston Texas (for the summer)

Mchelle started crawling in the Middle of May, as soon as that started she was pulling herself up on all the furniture and standing. On June 13th she got her first two bottom teeth! Her favorite new food is avocados.



We took the kids to go see Toy Story 3, Nehemiah LOVES Buzz. So latley Buzz has been flying around the house. He also loves to play at the park with his cousins.




All in all we are doing well and having a good ol' time out here in Texas!

Happy 6 Months Birthday to Michelle!!!

Ok so I can NOT believe that my little princess is already 6 months. She is a DOLL. Time goes by way to fast when you have babies...and I dont like it one bit! So at 6 months she's 23 pounds, 29 inches long, way off the charts, wears size 12-18 month clothes, wears size 4 diapers, wears a size 3 shoe, is talking away, grabbing everything in sight, smiling all over, LOVES her brother, can roll halfway over, sits up like a champ, has lots of slobber but no teeth, sings herself to sleep, not sleeping threw the night, loves Gerbers banana strawberry apple medly, and brings us all so many smiles and SO much happiness! I love you Michelle!

Easter

Easter was really nice. The Thursday before Easter Family Graduate Housing had an Easter egg hunt, that was Nehemiah's first. For his age group they just spead all the eggs all over the black top and let the kids go at it. Nehemiah didn't really get it, he thought they were balls so he started throwing them and he pegged this poor little girl in the face...poor thing! Nehemiah enjoyed himself for sure.




Saturday night after I put the kids down, when i was arranging their easter baskets Chris came over to look at them and said "Since when is easter Christmas?".... Okay so maybe I went a little overboard, but I dont care it was for my kids and it was fun! Nehemiahs favorite little present was his mini Toy Story characters he got. Thats definetly his new favorite thing is Toy Story. He LOVES Buzz, with a passion!




Michelle's favorite toy was that little flower rattle we got her.



We mostly spent the day watching Conference and in between sessions we decorated our eggs. Nehemiah used his Toy Story stickers, Chris colored with cayons, I took pictures, and Michelle watched.






Our Lovely eggs....


I cooked my first ham...let me tell you that was so much work (not). I made some rolls (that was a bust) and I also made some Mormon potatoes. We took our cooking over to our friends the Kolste's and enjoyed dinner with them. It was a really nice day and Im so greatful I got to spend it with my little family.
