Yesterday, Trent went to the antique mall with his Daddy. They sell train magazines there, and as a surprise, from time to time Trent will get to go get some. When he got home he said “Mommy I have a surprise for you…you can’t let Dylan touch them because they will break” and out of the bag, he pulled a set of train…

We spent a fun day with our new niece Hayden. Here are some cute pictures of the kids together.

Aliya (3 months ) Dylan (19 months) Trent (4 1/2 years old)

Aliya loves this blanket. It was knitted for her by our friend Sharon. She likes to wiggle her fingers into the holes to hold it. We of course have to take it away once she is asleep so she won't pull it over her head, but it is definitely a great comfort blanket for her. There is something wonderful about wat…

We had a wonderful Easter! We had a nice dinner with Bill and Kathy. The kids enjoyed getting some playtime in with their Grandma and Grandpa . We spent the entire day doing nothing more then playing with the children and loving every minute of it. Minus the weather (it was snowing) it was a very good Easter. Trent …

Nate is an amazing father. Now I don’t say this because he is my husband and I am supposed to, or because it is the nice thing to say, I say it because I mean it with all my heart. He would rather spend time with our family than do anything else in the world, and I think that is an extremely rare quality to find. …

He does not share his monkey with very many people, but will often bring it over to Aliya if she starts to cry. The boys had a blast taking an E…

Our little angel has always been a good sleeper, but last night she amazed me. She slept from 7:30 pm to 8:30 am. Unfortunately, both the boys woke up in the night so I was still not able to get a full night of sleep. That's okay I wouldn't trade my busy life for the world (even if it does mean sleeping less …

Thank you Auntie Sherie for the cute new  hair bows! I was so excited. The kids never seem to sit still long enough for me to get a picture, but I actually was able to take two pictures of them all together this week. We had one day of sunshine and then went back to the snowy weather. The kids are definitely starting…

The picture below is of Dylan playing with a ladybug. Trent and him played with it for over an hour. They thought it was so sweet. Trent told Dylan to pet it gently because it was only a baby. We now have two ladybugs living in a bowl in our house. The boys think they are great and have even named them. Now I know m…
