fridge

This is the top of our fridge. It has every single toy that has been taken away from Ezekiel. Notice all the poles or sticks in the bucket, he never gets to keep those ones very long because he likes to point them in peoples faces like a sword and has hit a few people. Now that Ezekiel is a little rascal this is about the only place I can keep things away from him although he has been getting buckets lately and getting things that are on the very edge. He is a crazy kid but so cute and creative. Notice that most of the things up there are not toys just weird things from around the house, which are his favorite toys. I was looking at the fridge the other day and I just thought it was so funny how all these things just built up. I guess it's time to clean it off and start all over again.

Don't let her looks fool you

Here's Mia Posing for the camera.

Here's Mia showing off her freshly painted pretty nails

And here's Mia with nail polish all over. I guess Ezekiel climbed up and got my nail polish and decided to let Mia play with it while I was in the shower. I came out to check on them and I hear Mia saying "messy, messy." Usually she says that about her hair so I just thought she took her hair out. Then I see this and I don't know what the heck it is until I turn the corner and see Ezekiel by the nail polish. Luckily they only got a little on the couch and only got one spot on the carpet about the size of a quarter. CRAZY KIDS! Why are they so curious.

Blanket

I just wanted to share the quilt I made my sister Kelsey for her birthday. It was a lot of fun (and work!) to make it and I was happy with the results.

growing way too fast

Today we hit yet another milestone. We are taking down the crib. I am not quit sure how I feel about this yet. One day Mia decided she didn't want to sleep in her crib. She would scream bloody murder every night. So we thought maybe she wanted to sleep in a bed like she see's Ezekiel doing (they share a room). So we pulled out Ezekiel's old toddler bed and she has been sleeping in it ever since. She thinks she is really cool especially since she can get up whenever she wants. She especially like to roam around in the middle of the night and she also thinks she can just get up and wake us up at 5:30 every morning. So yeah I'm not sure how I feel about this yet.

Her new bed!

 And of course the treasure we found under her crib. hehe

I am also posting this because it has been requested to put something new up so the gross booger picture won't be on top anymore. LOL

Today my little nephew is having his second heart surgery. I am at my sister's house watching 6 kids for the day. Should be fun and I hope my nephew does well through the surgery.

Family Night

We were driving by the Draper Temple on monday and I was trying to show Ezekiel it and I was telling him a little about what temples are. He was trying to see the temple from the care while we were driving but couldn't so I decided to do a little lesson on temples for family night and then we went to the Provo Temple and ate popsicles. The kids really enjoyed it and it was fun to be together as a family and tech the kids something about the temple.
