The new Noah

Well Noah is now 11 months old. So, I am in denial that he is almost one. So of course it suprised me that he has started to pull himself up on furniture and cruise around. It shouldn't, but, he is my baby! The girls decided that he needed a princess makeover and made him so pretty! I love it. He better get used to, I have a feeing this will happen often in our house.

New Additions

No, no baby on the way. We decided it was time for our family to adopt a couple of kittens. So let me introduce Alice and Jesse, two cute kitties! They are about 9 weeks old and are pretty fun. I have never been an animal lover, but the kittens have been pretty good so far. They were already litter box trained, so they don't require a ton of work, which is good. Here are some pics of them from last week.

Kindergarten

So, the time finally came in my life for me to send my firstborn to Kindergarten. I was having mixed emotions about it, but I was actually really excited for Taylor. She couldn't wait to start. So, on Wed, we walked her to school and to her classroom. We had already met her teacher, so she was ready! I was doing fine until she gave me a big hug and told me she loved me. The tears came and I got out of there fast,so she wouldn't see me. When I came out of the classroom, a few of my friends from the neighborhood were there too and I got a hug. Some of them were crying too, so we all felt better. I cried the whole way home (5 minute walk) and then for about an hour and I was fine. I can see her playground from our back window, so I try to sneak a peak at her at recess. She loves her teacher and class, I just can't believe that she is there!! These are some pics of her first day, Ellie starts preschool next week, so I will be sure to let you know how that goes. She is really excited too, she wears her backpack when we walk Taylor to school, so cute!! On a side note, I just wanted to let my Grandpa George know that I ran at least 10 miles last night. A friend and I are training for a half marathon, which I am pretty sure I will do. Anyway, I am pretty sore today, but glad I did it. Enjoy the pictures.

Noah

Since he was left out of the last two posts I wanted to put some cute pics of just Noah. He is sick today, well he has been sick for a while and now he has a fever, so I am taking him to the doctor. I hope he feels better soon! He is doing some funny things lately, like standing up in the middle of the room. He doesn't pull himself up on furniture, he just stands up by himself. He can't stand for very long, but he thinks it is so funny. He also has started eating everything, he really won't eat baby food any more. Enjoy some pics of the cutest little baby boy around!

Utah County Fair

Even though the fair last year was really awful, we decided to go again this year. I have to say it was much more enjoyable this time. Mostly because it wasn't 100 degrees and I wasn't 100 months pregnant. The kids loved the animals and the tractors. We had so much fun, and the best part was, everything was free!! And it is only 5 minutes from the house so when the kids were done, we were home quickly! Maybe we will make it a tradition to go every year.

Fairies

I will be playing catch up on my posts because our computer is dying. I finally decided to use the laptop to update. So here is what we have been up to in the last week. Sorry for all the pictures!
Last Saturday Taylor went to a fairy birthday party and came home with a whole fairy outfit. Her friend McKenna has an amazing mom that made one outfit for all of the girls! Our girls have loved it and take turns wearing the fairy wings. SO CUTE!
