Another Blog?

I'm starting a new Blog about thoughts of my children and about life, if you are interested in reading it let me know, here is a sample;


At times it's really hard to be a Mom to three very young children....but at the same time I look into their eyes and see the innocence, love and pure trust that I would hope to have some day. I love my kids and feel the Saviors love through their eyes each and every day.
I wish that I could throw out the things in life that don't really matter to me or my family and focus truly and wholeheartedly on my husband and children. Where do I start? How can I stay focused? What kind of mom can I truly become? Who will my children become if I take those steps?

It's been a while since I wrote! No excuse just a crazy life! Finals are coming up and my mind is NOT ready for it. The kids have been sick, Michael getting over two ear infections and David had some crazy bacterial eye infection, plus the usual swine flu and colds.
We had family up for Thanksgiving and it was so much fun to have half of them stay with us, I sure miss the family =)

All the grandkids Thanksgiving Day.



and finally me....watching the kids...yup this is how it's done, don't they look safe? =)

Halloween

Ward Halloween Party "Scripture Power"
Theme was to dress up as a scripture character.


There were many more cute little activities for the kids these were just two of them. The pumpkins were center peices for the tables.





Jason as Lehi and David as Nephi for the Halloween Party. Michael kept calling Jason "Prophet" he would say "Hey Prophet, come here" "Hey Prophet, are you going to eat that?" etc. it was cute


Michael "The Tempest" (Storm)

He made sure everyone called him "Storm" not Michael.




David as "Batman"


A neighbor friend had a Halloween party for the kids and Michael was sick, so it was just David that could go and he dressed up as "Batman"

Jack And The Bean Stalk

Michael has been really into "Jack and the Beanstalk" lately. Jason tells the boys a story every night and Michael almost always wants this story. When I have put them down at night I have Michael tell the story to me and he pretty much knows this story word for word....so cute.

He is learning his letters in school and this week was the letter "B" the kids are suppose to bring something fun that represents that letter, so I sent him with a container full of beans that said "Magic Beans" on it. Michael was so excited to bring it to class and show all his classmates. When he got home he ran straight to the back and tried planting them (above picture) then he kept running in the house filling up a cup of water running out watering them and kept repeating this watering task over and over again, hoping that they would grow a BIG beanstalk. :)

The joys of the innocent!

Daily Prayers

So this is how our normal Daily Family Prayers go:

Daddy: "David it's your turn to say the prayer"

David: "Dear Heavly Father....bless day, Mommy, Daddy, Michael, Bella, Buster, Mommy,Mommy, Mommy, Daddy, Mommy, Bella, Daddy, Daddy, Michael.....Fishies

Michael: " Jesus Christ AMEN!!"

David: "Mommy, Daddy, Fishies Soap, no Monsters, sleep good, take bath, no Monsters, Daddy, Daddy, Daddy, tramp outside, buster, bugs, bath, food......

Michael: "Say Jesus Christ Amen!"

David: "Jesus Christ, Michael, Bella, Kent, Becka tramp, shoes, Buster, Mommy.....

Daddy: Whispering in Davids ear "In the name of Jesus Christ"

David: "Name Jesus Christ AAMMEN!"

Michael: "My TURN! Heavly Father....Bless Food upstairs, name Jesus Christ AAMEN!"


Two totally different personalities, and this is seriously our every day prayers! It's Hilarious!
