He got the job!!!

We are so very proud of Trent!! He got the job as Director of Compliance at Children's Hospital of Central California. It's official we are moving to Sunny California!! We are very excited for this next chapter, but also very sad to leave so much behind in Maryland. Bittersweet. Way to go TBird! We love you.

Some ones getting chubby

Allie doesn't miss a meal. She loves her bottles! Her cheeks are really starting to fill in. She's almost always got a big cheesy grin on her cute face. Oh how she loves her brothers. They are such a big help.

Never a dull moment

Pretty much never get a moment to myself these days. Bathroom breaks are like a mini vacation. I almost always have one child on my lap and if I'm really lucky I only have two;). This is my most recent arrangement for dinner. Two girls fighting for real estate on my lap. If only this helped the weight loss.

Pierce is reading the Book of Mormon

Pierce has decided on his own to start reading the Book of Mormon. There have been a few mornings when I have found him on his own reading. It is so tender. Today he asked me if I would help him make two book marks, one for our family reading and one for his personal reading. This was our final product. We also had a really good discussion during our crafting. How'd I get so lucky to be his mom?

Daddy's Girls

That primary song rings true..."I'm so glad when Daddy comes home as glad as I can be..."
I honestly don't know who is more excited me or the kids. We sure love having him around and the girls are on him like magnets. I guess something's never change. Chick Magnet;)

Poor Jaida

Jaida had a nasty fever and was so sick. Trent was camping with the scouts. Luckily Allie and the boys were super good so I could tend to my little lovey. She spent the night cuddled in my bed. It was heavenly. She never has been a super cuddly baby, so I enjoyed every moment of it.

Love them like my own

I have had the unique opportunity to have had such a great relationship with my friend Stephanie and her kids, Teagan and Aaliyah, (well and Mo too) that I honestly can say I love those kids just like my own. We always have a good time. On this day as I was watching them Jaida and Aaliyah decided that they wanted to do my hair. We had some good laughs together. I'm so glad that we got to have this time together.
