Playing with Moon Sand

Whomever said that Moon Sand was easier than play doh is crazy. Oh well, the girls love playing with it. They got it for Christmas and I've let them play with it only twice, am I bad?? I just hate the clean up!

A little Father/Daughter bonding time

Lauren saw Daddy rockin' out with the guitar and wanted to have some fun too. So Dad was a good sport and showed her how. It was cute.

Northstar

We wanted to do a lot fo things before the baby came so we decided to go to Northstar to ice skate. The girls had a grea time. Lauren really wanted to go on the ice but we didn't have anything that would fit her. So while Chad and Aubrey skated, Lauren and I checked out the shops and make smores by the fire. It was a good time.

Valentine's Day

For Valentine's Day, Lauren and I cut out tons of hearts and decorated them. It was so cute seeing Lauren's excitement about making them. Later that night, we as a family went and "heart attacked" both parents house with them. We had a lot of fun.

The Baby's 3D ultrasound

Can you see it?? You are looking up her nose! You can see her nose and lips.

They didn't turn out very clear because of the umbilical cord was in the way. That is the fuzzy stuff you see. And no, she doesn't have hair! The black part is not her hair. Dr. Mellum said that she is measuring around 4lb 8oz right now. So he says that she will be bigger than the others. Aubrey was 6lb 2oz and Lauren was 5lb 10oz. So we will see what she looks like! My c-section is scheduled for March 23rd.

My little baby is seven years old!!

I can't believe that Aubrey is seven years old now. Time goes by so fast. Now she is really looking forward to be eight so she can get baptized.

Lauren and I took strawberries cupcakes to her class. Right when we walked in her class, Lauren ran over to Aubrey and was so excited! I felt bad because the teacher was still trying to teach a lesson but it was okay. After eating the cupcakes the kids went out to recess. I let Lauren play with Aubrey for a little bit on the playground. It was really cute to see her friends crowd around Aubrey because of a little girl. Aubrey loved having Lauren with her.

Lauren is hangin' in there!

When we went to Target, Aubrey was trying on some jeans and I looked over at Lauren and she was hanging on the hooks. It was so funny. She's our little monkey!

Christmas Day!

Good morning girls!!

Remember the game Perfection?? The girls love it!Chad's pulling Aubrey around.

We woke up to a beautiful white Christmas!! We got about 6-10 inches. Christmas morning was nice. The girls let Dad and I sleep in and actually we had to wake up Lauren. We tried to get games for them that they can play together. Aubrey got snow skis for Christmas. After breakfast Chad took Aubrey out in the backyard and pulled her around. It was pretty cute.

First BIG Snow Fall

Aubrey is trying to push Lauren in the snow.Lauren was so excited to go play!

We had a big snow fall yesterday. We got about 10 inches. The first thing Aubrey wanted to do when whe got home from school was go sledding down our hill in our backyard. The slope is pretty big so you can go really fast. They had a great time!!

Leave it up to Chad!!

Those who know Chad pretty well then you would get a kick out of this. Sorry to those that don't like it. I came home from a church activity and found this. I was laughing so hard!! Don't worry, he didn't keep it up too long. If you don't get it, it is a deer that has been shot. Sorry hunting season just ended for him and I think that he still has it on his mind.

I did it! Finally!!

I know, I know that I'm bad at this. I've had a couple of friends "complain" that I don't post enough!! :) I feel busy but I have no idea what I've been doing. Crazy. Well we are having another girl! Chad says that he will need some "Man" time. Poor guy, the girls already side with me on everything even if I'm wrong!! Anyway, I posted some pictures so I should be up to date. I'll get this down sometime.

This is my family!!

We were just playing with the camera and took some pictures. After a little cropping and fixing the red eye, some of these pictures turned out good.

Witches

I caught Lauren sneaking extra candy while the boys weren't looking!!
My two little angels were witches for Halloween!

Apple Hill (I mean Bishop's Pumkin Farm)

We were able to go to Apple Hill this year. We love going to see the Piggie Race, eating great food and awesome pie, picking out our pumpkins at the pumpkin patch and doing all the fun stuff there is to do there.

Where's Lauren??

Lauren wanted to play hide and go seek with me. So when I came in the kitchen and saw this, I thought that it was so funny!

My little Get-Away!

Chad had to go to Las Vegas for a meeting for his work so I went with him. We stayed at the Wynn which is a REALLY nice hotel!! But all I did was stay in my room and read "Twilight"!! Yes I got stucked into it and I love it!! I love the whole series. It's a must read!

Lauren's the BIG Two!!

Well, here is my big girl!! Lauren is two years old now and loves to do things by herself. She loves Aubrey and tries to do the same things she does.

Life is crazy!!

I am so bad at staying on top of our blog!! With this pregnancy, I haven't wanted to do anything. So anyway, I have the energy so I'm going to post a bunch of events that happened this summer. They are brief but at least I will be caught up!!

Six Flags

We had the chance to go to Six Flags one Saturday. It happend to be Lauren's birthday so we were telling people who worked there to see if we would get anything free!! Anyway, Aubrey told the lady who worked the dolphin show and she said that Lauren was too young but if Aubrey wanted to help feed the dolphins. Aubrey was so excited!! She had a great time. Oh yeah, happy birthday Lauren!!

Aubrey's First Day Of School!

The night before, I was ready to pick out Aubrey's clothes. She said that she wanted to pick them so I told her she could and to put them on her bed. So the next morning she runs into my room saying "Ta-da!!" She put on her old jeans with butterflies and her old High School Musical shirt. I said "No way! You have plenty of new clothes, pick one of those." So she picked this outfit which was fine but I told her that I got to pick the follow days clothes. Was that mean of me??
