Little update!!

Well I know I haven't updated for a while so here ya go. Let's see, we've moved into our new house and I LOVE it. Isabel loves it too. She especially loves her new room. I love the layout and it's just nice to finally have my own home again. I finished another semester of school and have one more to go. I think I can hang in there for one more. Nick has been very busy with snow plow which makes him happy. We had a wonderful Christmas with just our little family at home. Isabel gets the basic ideas of Santa and naughty and nice. Christmas morning she was so excited to see that Santa actually came and that he is real. The excitement in her eyes ways priceless. She opened all of her presents and then opened all of Joshua's. He didn't mind as long as he had the wrapping paper to play with. It was a beautiful thing to sit and watch our kids play and be so excited and they were just so happy. It was awesome!!!! So now it's new years and I get to make the goals for the year and hope I have at least started them by July. One goal is to graduate by May and that is a pretty safe goal to set.!! Then, right around the corner is Isabel's 3rd birthday!!! WOW she's going to be three years old. I can not believe it. She's such an amazing little girl and I love her so much. She's so adorable and has the sweetest spirit ever!!

Later on I will be posting some pictures of all the things that have gone on recently and try to get my page updated before school starts on the 12th. :( Gooo

Princess Tea Party

Isabel and I went to the Princess Tea Party at the Festival of Trees. We had so much fun. She got to dress up as a princess and she got a hat a wand and she got entertained by many of the Disney princesses. She thought Princess Belle was so pretty! It was a lot of fun and I would recommend people taking their daughters next year. It's princess everything and if your daughters are anything like mine, princesses are her life right now. It was a good mommy, daughter night. I sure love my little princess.

Having Fun

We went to SLC to see the lights and the planetarium. The lights were amazing but there were a lot of people there. Isabel had a lot of fun at the planetarium and we found this fun little toy. At least he has hair now. It always nice to get away even if it's just for a night.

Dirty

We are in the middle of building a barn out back and any chance she gets, Isabel is out there helping. She loves to play in the dirt!! Later that evening she got a much needed bath. As I emptied the water from the tub, a layer of dirt was still there. Needless to say she got another bath

Chug

I was in the other room getting Joshua dressed and Isabel came in and told me she was thirsty. I told her I would get her some milk in just a minute. When I came out, she had already taken the liberty of getting her own drink. Who needs cups? I asked her if she would like a cup and she replied "um no thanks mom, I'm good."

Good Times!!!

Nothing better than hearing a baby laugh!!

Name Change

Isabel was playing in her room and came out looking like this. So maybe I should change her name to Michelle Phelps...she's already got her medals.

Busted!!!

Someone got their hand caught in the candy jar. I love the look of innocence.

Family Pictures

We had our yearly family photos taken in September. I forget how hard it is to get a good picture of an infant.....oh well.

Halloween

We had so much fun trick or treating this year. Isabel went as Snow White and Joshua went as an ear of corn. I'm glad it's over now because Isabel kept getting afraid of ghost and monsters on TV. She's already for next year, she says she wants to be Cinderella next time for trick or treating. All in all we had a really good time.

Sleepy boy

Joshua loves his little jumper. Even when he's tired he will continue jumping as he's crying. This time there was no crying and I realized I hadn't heard him bouncing for a while, so I went over to check on him and this is how I found him, sound asleep. Apparently he decided to skip the crying thing and just go to sleep. Maybe he was thinking this way when he wakes up he's already to get right back to jumping.

First Deer

Nick went hunting with his brother and Uncle for the first time this year and even though he was going for elk, he ended up with a deer. Better then nothing I guess.At least he had a great time. If anyone has ideas on how to cook deer meat, I'm open to anything.

Giddy-up

Isabel loves to dress up. This is her cowgirl outfit and the monkey on her back is just an accessory. She puts her snow boots on and rides around on her stick horse. She's such a girl and it's so much fun!!

Cute kids

Isabel sure loves Joshua!

Sleepy girl!!

Sometimes she plays so hard that she will sleep anywhere she can. SO SWEET!!!!

West Yellowstone

So this is my very first post on my new blog. Thank you Randee for getting me into this. I think it's going to be a lot of fun. It might take away from my studying but that's ok, it will be worth it.

We went to West Yellowstone this summer and had a lot of fun. We got to go to Old faithful, swim and see bears. We had so much fun swimming. This was the first time Isabel learned to swim on her own. It's amazing how fast they grow up!!!

Isabel got new sunglasses and she loves to wear them everywhere. She is so much fun. Of course we can't go anywhere without her goldfish and drink.
