Random Happenings

I cleaned out our cabinets and organized Jon's stash.

We had some extra quarters while shopping at Walmart, so we took a wack at the claw machine. Of course we had to win the ugliest thing in the box, but the boys love him!

Wildlife in our own backyard.... and a chicken.

Jon and the kids making dinner.

I couldn't walk around the store anymore, so the boys and I waited for Daddy in the car.

Sweet angel.

Random drive around the temple.

Jon finally finished his project!

I'm making the kid's Pokemon costumes for Halloween. Eyes are done!

Made the baby a hat.

Tim learned about F in Pre-School.

Last night Jon helped set up my parent's witch. The boys absolutely love her. Elizabeth... not so much....

Tim is 4 Years Old!!!

For Timothy's first birthday present, he was able to be student of the week at his pre-school.

They gave us a poster and we got to talk about him in front of the class.

Tim, excuse me, Timothy picked out this birthday cake. It was actually really good!

He got a new church outfit from Grandma and Grandpa Criman.

The boys found the basketball hoop that we were waiting to give him.

Spiderman Cars.

Dart Guns

Rocket

Another cake at Grandma's house.

Cake and icecream cones.

We had cookie monster cake and ninja turtle masks Saturday night

followed by baths in the sink.

Sunday Elder Criman was able to call for Argentina's Mother's Day.

Tim also has his birthday check up. Weighs 39.2 LBS and is 3'5" tall!!! He is 50th percentile in weight and height and is ahead of the curve mentally!!!

I can't believe he's four!

Tim's First Field Trip!

Last Thursday Tim had his first field trip to Hee Haw Farms and we got to go too.

All three loved the goats!!! Now I'm trying to convince Jon to let us get one when we get a house.

They had a corn box, which is like a sandbox, but with dried corn.

There were old tractors everywhere! The kids loved them!

The kids also went down the giant slide, but I had my hands full, so I couldn't take a picture of the smiles as they went down.

We ended the day with a hay ride and picking out their pumpkins.

Pooped

All in all the kids had a lot of fun and I can't wait to go with Jon.

Elizabeth Update

Elizabeth is 16 months old and has got a personality of a two year old. She still loves to snuggle, but will play with the boys when they let her.

Her hair has gotten so long that it was covering her eyes...

...So we trimmed her bangs for a first haircut.

She has become the biggest Daddy's girl. She will throw a huge fit if Jon even goes outside to take out the trash.

Like I said, her hair has gotten so long! I love playing with it! And you see that mess in the background? That's hurricane Elizabeth. She grabs and throws all day long.

She is so much fun and I love having another girl in the house.

Love this princess!

Michael Update:

Michael has become a big boy! He's still a tank, but I mean he's growing up so fast.

He loves to play with Tim and has an imagination to keep up with the stories Tim comes up with during play time. Michael is talking a lot more and we can understand most of what he says.

I get Michael time after Tim goes to pre-school and if Elizabeth actually takes a nap.

He is such a happy kid and spreads joy throughout the family.

I love this little boy!!!

Oct Conference 2014

What an amazing conference!!! I love our leaders so much.

For the last couple years every Saturday Conference my parents have some kind of project going on. This year it was cutting down trees to prepare for the big dig to fix the sewer.

The kids helped.

Food is another part of conference. Good food so we can feast on the words of the gospel. 

All the hard work can really make you tired.

We finally got our computer back from Best Buy so I can re-listen to the amazing messages given to us.
