Teeth, fish, and hair.

Spencer is toothless. He lost his two front teeth on the top. He's very excited and now has a lisp.
And your welcome for not posting the before pictures.


We had a field trip for Carly's preschool. We went to the aquarium. Always a good time.

Toothless in some branches.

Parker was in need of a haircut. Here's a before picture.

Look at his crazy hair.

He's pretty excited.

Oh, not so much anymore...

The handsome man after his haircut.

He looks so grown up with his hair cut.

Dates, parties, and haircuts

We had a great V-day! Kyle took me out on a date and it was awesome! We went out to eat at a great bbq place, then we rode the tram up to the top of the mountain and went hiking in the snow. Super fun!


Hiking in the snow

Great view of the city from the top!

We also threw a Valentine's party for the kids. Spencer didn't get to celebrate in school this year, so we decided to have our own celebrations. Here's Spencer making a face (as usual) while decorating sugar cookies.

Decorating the cookies

Again, decorating the cookies. We also made Valentines, played games, and exchanged valentines. The kids had a lot of fun!

Kyle and Spencer decided they were sick of doing their hair, so Kyle shaved both their heads.

Snow Much Fun - Part Deux

We had so much fun in the snow last week, that the kids begged us all week to go again. So we caved. But this time we got ourselves a tube to do a little tubing. It was a beautiful day and we went earlier in the morning to beat the crowds. It was a lot of fun.



We may have to invest in a larger tube for the larger kids...


Spencer loved it.

And Parker loved eating snow. He is seriously weird. Kyle would feed it to him and he LOVED it! He would beg him for "MO" when Kyle's glove was empty.

We had a great morning/afternoon in the mountains enjoying the white stuff again. All you people in Utah don't realize what you have! :)

Snow Much Fun!

We just got back from playing in the snow in the mountains. It was cold and busy, but we all had fun.

This was Parkers first experience with snow. He could barely walk in it. He kept falling down, but he seemed to have fun... until he got cold.

Spencer's "magical" icicle.

Zoo

Since our annual passes to the zoo expire this month, I thought we better make one more trip.


I must say that we make some cute kids.

I was afraid this swan was going to attack her for her bread. He didn't... phew.

We always take old bread to feed the ducks at the zoo. It's sad that this is the kids favorite part of the zoo, but atleast they have fun!

See? I told you, F.U.N.

The new crocodile exhibit.

Just Some Tids and Bits

Nothing too exciting, but it's our life:


So, Kyle's recently gotten into biking. We finally got ourselves a kids trailer. The kids LOVE it!
Kyle loves it because he can go biking more now and still spend time with the kids and I love it because I get some "quiet" time when they're all out biking.

All snuggled up for a winter ride.

This is the first time Parker has fallen asleep in his high chair.

And Carly started preschool last week. She is really liking it and loves doing homework.

And this kid hates doing homework. Here he is reading a book, which we can usually talk him into.

New Beginnings...

Carly is a Sunbeam! She was a little nervous about her first Sunday in Primary, but luckily she has a great teacher and she keeps asking when we get to go back.

Spencer is now in CTR 7. He was excited to wear his new sweater that G-ma/G-pa gave him because "it makes me look like President Monson". Good job Spencer!

And it was a big day for us as Parker attended nursery for the first time too! Yay!!!!!

He went in and didn't look back. He got brought to us once for crying, but I think it's because someone clocked him. He went back in and was fine the rest of the time.

And this is Carly posing infront of our new piano.

This is the old piano as it was on it's way out the door. Pretty thing eh? Granted this is after the beautiful mirror was taken off of the top, so that it wouldn't break on the way to the dump... it was marbled and everything.

Okay, so as much as we wanted a piano and were excited to get this one, it caused us more problems and stress than it should have, so it was a happy day when it was hauled off to the dump- even though it DID belong to my great-great grandma...

We did keep the bench and re-upholster it and paint it. It looks awesome!

Wildlife... of All Kind

For Christmas the kids got tattoos in their stocking. HA. So here they are checking out their new CARS tatts.

I walked in on these two playing dolls and Carly had this bag on her head.

Carly got makeup for Christmas from Spencer.

Today we went to the Bosque Del Apache Wildlife Refuge. It was fun to see all of the birds and animals.

Parker loved playing in the dirt on the walks we went on.

Can you see the animal in this picture? No, it's not Spencer...

It is this coyote. It was right next to the road so we got to watch it for awhile. We saw 3 coyotes in total, a bunch of hawks and falcons, and a bazillion ducks, geese, and cranes. It was pretty cool.
