SNOW....

Is something that we don't get a lot of in St. George, so whenever we go visit Shawn's family in Logan it's a treat for the kids. Ellie and Ashtyn got all bundled up and we went sledding.

They had a blast.

Dustin's Wedding

I'm pretty far behind on my blogging, but here we go with the catch-ups.....

My brother Dustin was married on 2/10/2010, kind of a cool date to remember. Aislinn came into our family with four really cute kids and we're so excited. My girls love having more cousins to play with. The number of grandkids doubled from 4 to 8!!

All My LITTLE Bros.....

Rolling.....

This post is more for me so I can remember, but Ian rolled over for the first time yesterday, February 4th. Now every time I lay him down, that's the first thing he does. He doesn't realize that once he gets onto his tummy he's not going to like it for long!!

Ready to Run

This weekend was the Painter's 1/2 marathon, 5k and Kids Tuff Race. I ran the 5k and had a pretty good run. My goal was to do it in under 30 minutes and, thanks to coach Natalie, we did it in 29 min, 22 sec. Natalie barely broke a sweat, but at least I didn't look as bad as the girl to my left (although I felt like that for a minute).

This is me and my friend Andra. She got a great time too. I have to give her the credit for getting me out running so soon after having my baby.

We signed Ellie and Ashtyn up for the kids races as well. Ellie and Lainee ran the 1/2 mile and loved it.

Ashtyn ran the 200 meter. She was a little scared at first so I ran it with her. She ran the whole time and was very proud of herself when it was over.

Ian is 4 Months....

Wow how time flies!! We are amazed every day by Ian, he has been such a great addition to our family. We couldn't ask for a better baby, he is the most patient, happy, and loving baby I know. These are some of my favorite pictures of him.

Gotta love the double chin.

Christmas

We had a wonderful Christmas this year, we are so lucky to have what we have. We're especially thankful this time of year for our family and for the three amazing kids we have been blessed with.

This is them on Christmas Eve with their new PJ's.

Ellie looks so excited doesn't she?

It was an exhausting day for Ian. At our ward Christmas party they asked Ellie to be a lamb for the Nativity. During the middle of the program someone asked me why Ellie was dressed like a Bunny. And I also heard a comment that she looked like a puppy. Either way she was pretty cute.

And what's a Christmas Party without a special visitor?

Ian's Blessing

Ian was blessed on Sunday, November 29th. It was such a great day & Shawn did an awesome job on the blessing!! We are enjoying every minute of this little guy, he is such a good baby and pretty darn cute too.
