I'm a Mormon

I finally made a Profile on mormon.org and it was really interesting thinking about my journey through the gospel. I wish I had a talent with expressing how I feel through words, so I feel like this isn't even close to how I really feel. I'll probably be tweeking it for forever, but it has the basics of my testimony.

Here is the link to my profile:

Playing Hard


Tim was on one today! Like today he wouldn't even sit down for quiet time, he just had too much energy!
While we were getting ready for dinner Tim was playing on the big chair he fell asleep! Lately he's been falling asleep during dinner, but never before. Having friends over all the time really wares him out!!! 

A Nice Walk

Yesterday the weather was just too nice! So we decided to take the kids for a walk and play on the playground when we went to pick up Bridget from school.
All three wanted to sit in the wagon, so we scrunched them in.


It was nice to be able to get out and enjoy the fresh air.

Crawling


A Little Bit of This....

Cowgirl

I love this picture!!! Elizabeth is showing off her new dress.


I heard the water running in the bathroom and go to check it out. Michael climbed up to get a drink. Apparently I'm not fast enough for him.

Elizabeth is so close to crawling and furniture crawling!!! She'll take a couple steps and then sit back down.

This silly boy loves keeping his hands in his pockets.

Elizabeth's first time in the car ride at Walmart.

The boys watching it snow!

Thanks Grandma Zabriskie!!!

Babysitting Round 2!

This is the second time I get to babysit the Ruiz kids and it has been awesome!!!
It is so much easier watching six kids than five and being pregnant.
Bridget and Elizabeth are best buds! Bridget is an amazing helper with Michael and Elizabeth!


I started doing the marble jar again, but made it so everyone shares one jar. I made two lines, the first is the halfway mark and everyone gets a candy; the second is at the top and everyone gets a toy.

We made it halfway and they really enjoyed the candy! 


This is the first time Tim wrote his name! I had to show him with my finger how each letter looked, but he did it!

I have a bunch of little artists



Today it snowed and as soon as I got the boys dressed, it melted...

Everyday after I get Bridget from school we have decompress time. I remember coming home from elementary school and just wanted to have a break and enjoy myself for a while, so I let her have a break before we dig into homework. Today we played SUPER SPY!!! We got some ribbon and had the kids climb through it without touching it. Of course they had Jon and I do it too. It was a lot of fun!
