Jeremiah's almost 5...

We had a friend birthday party for JJ today. We got out the slip and slide, baby pool, a crazy sprinlker toy (he got last year from Matt and Cindy) and had some water balloons. That with the trampolin and it was a good time. JJ had lots of fun. We had lots of fun with lots of kids. I made a soceer ball cake that looked pretty good. It's just so hard to believe my little guy is turning 5. He has been such a joy to have in my life. He is getting so smart, maybe too smart. He is the best older brother to Kaylee and Grant. Happy early birthday Jeremiah!

Easter

The Easter Bunny did find JJ, Kaylee, and Grant all the way over here in Alabama. We went to a really fun Easter celebration at the town square on Saturday. The kids got to make hats and ties, a plant, a cute Easter bag, made a cookie and treats to lay out for the Easter Bunny. They had free lemonade and cotton candy and a fun Easter egg hunt. It was a fun time for all. We had a little eater egg hunt on Sunday in out back yard and every egg was actually found. It was a nice Easter weekend!

A couple more Birthday pictures

Happy Birthday Kaylee!

Kaylee turned 3 today. What a crazy 3 years it has been. We are so happy to have our sweet little Kaylee here. She is so much fun and so sweet. We all know she has had her tantrums and endless crying moments, which I think lasted from 3months until she was just about 3, but now she rarely has them. We all love her so much and I'm so happy to be her mother. Happy Birthday Kayleee!!

Sweet Home Alabama

Here are some pictures of the outside of our house and the yard. Their is a bird nest in out carport. It has like 6 eggs in it so we took one out for a minute for the kids to check it out. They thought it was pretty cool. The mother bird is always keeping them warm everytime we come outside, but fly's away when we come out. Hopefully they hatch soon and we see the baby birds. That would be lots of fun. Last night there was a tornamdo watch for our county. We had lots of rain and wind and thunder and lightning. We had lots of branches brake off our tree in the front yard. The power went out for about 5 seconds. In some areas about 15 minutes away had power out all night and some still dont have power. Crazy stuff.

Fun at the Park

We went to the park for a little playgroup with people from my ward. It s a nice little park with a little stream. The kids had most fun at the stream. As you can see Grant was having way too much fun in the swing. He actually really enjoyed it. I found a different park from this one that was really cool. Lots of fun things. There was a woodpecker actually pecking the tree. Ive never seen one in real life so that was really fun for me. And it made me think why does it do that to the tree's? things are going very well here. Been very cold this last week. Registered my car with Alabama and it was $200 less than AZ a year, car insuranceis $22 less a month, pest service is $35 less every 3 months, water is about $10 less a month. I like that. However milk is $3 a gallon, thats the only thing I think that we really use that is a lot more than AZ.

New Pictures

Everything is going well over here in Alabama. Grant loves to eat his hands all day. If his pacifier isn't in his mouth then his hands are. He still has his chubby cheeks and is laughing and smiling all the time now. Jeremiah and Kaylee are having fun in the new house and with all their toys they have been without. Kaylee is doing really good with her potty training. Today is the second day. JJ keeps busy all day with his Nintendo and out back yard and playing with Grant.
