I wanted to snap a photo of the kids before church quick. They are growing soooo fast! They are all such amazing kiddos. We love you all more than anything <3<3<3

Emry & Paisley turn TWO!

It's not easy having your birthday just 4 days before Christmas! I guess it's better than being on Christmas. Uncle Ryan and Aunt Amanda came over, with Ney Ney, and we celebrated. They were happy to have their own chairs to sit in. Emry's is purple and Paisley's pink. I think when they get older they will hate those colors. Emry's favorite will be pink and Paisley's purple lol! We shall see! They are such awesome little girls. We are so blessed to have them. Ella is their best little buddy. She keeps right up with them as if they are the same age.

Tristan turns 9!!!

Tristan was really excited for his birthday. He requested an SU cake (no surprise there). He really wanted a pair of orange sneakers to match all of his SU clothes he wears. I think the photos show how happy he was to get them. Brinley was not happy at all. When someone has a birthday, the other kids usually get jealous of the presents. Hard life I know. Jim was also able to get Tristan some tickets to watch an SU game at the dome. I love him so much. He's such a good big brother and helper. I probably say that all the time but he really is. I depend on him for a lot. He continues to amaze me by how smart he is. He still loves to read. Happy 9th Birthday buddy!

Thanksgiving 2014

Since the girls were getting a little too big for their high chairs, we got them a cute little table and chairs set to eat at. They loved it of course! We started with just 2 chairs, but ordered another one for Ella :). I was able to take just the boys for dental visits, so we stopped for breakfast. They are in the Pokémon card phase. Of course they played (looked at) all their cards during breakfast. As you can see Tristan has a nice bruised eye. He was hit in the face with a basketball. We took him for a scan to make sure nothing was broken. Thankfully he was fine. We were invited down to Penn Yan for Thanksgiving. Aunt Tammy and the girls did a cute snowman craft with the kids. They plugged in and lit up for Christmas. It's so nice to spend time with our family on holidays. I sure hope my kids remember these times, just as I remember when I was little.

November 2014

Taking pictures of my own kiddos is a challenge. I usually decide last minute to throw clothes together and take them out to shoot. We raked up some leaves and then took a couple shots. The babies didn't want to sit still and smile. They wanted to play with the leaves...so that's what they did. We also had to pull out some dum dums for them to eat lol! As you can see, they made it in the picture too! I also got a cute picture of Emry and Paisley eating dinner :)

Tristan's notes!

I think these babies explain themselves :)

October 2014!!!

I'm SOOOOO behind on my blog! Waaaah. I'm using my facebook posts for the time I missed. My blog is one of my favorite things. I love looking back through my books and reading all the stories and looking at pictures. I'm so sad life was crazy enough that I didn't post and keep up. So we will begin where I left off...October 2014! Right after Easton's birthday. We had a hard time finding Halloween costumes for the twinsies. All I could come up with was Elsa and Ana costumes from Target. They of course loved them! The girls were so scared of Tristan's costume. I wanted to take a group shot of them on our front step. As you can see, that didn't go well! Poor Emry was terrified. We went trick or treating around Partick Circle with our friends Keagan and Kinsley. They had fun but Emry and Paisley kept dumping the candy out of their buckets as they walked. Next year...we are doing bags! We were invited up to Penn Yan for Landyn's senior night football game. It was fun cheering him on and spending time with the Drake crew.
