"This is a fun day"

Sabree has been saying "this is a fun day" all day today. She woke up bright and early to be on the bus in costume at 7:10. Halloween starts so early in Kanosh!!! She had so much fun at the school carnival and with her tiny teacher that dressed up like Minnie Mouse. She was shocked at school when an unknown pumkin came to visit her at breakfast (they serve breakfast at school). It turned out to be Grandma Adams!!!

In the evening there was a Halloween carnival at the church. It was great! I cannot believe how many activities they had set up and how well they decorated. It was a lot of fun! Who knew that Kanosh threw such great parties! After the carnival we went Trick-or-treating. The kids got handfuls of candy at each house. It was crazy! Between both Grandparents, school, the carnival and houses, we are set for the year and we might even have some left over candy to pass out for Halloween next year!

Jaylee was scared of Grandma's new look!

Saby Baby, Spiderman and J-bug!

I just have to write about how much I love my little kids! They are so cute (it's so easy to say that when it's 10:00 at night and they've been sleeping for 2 1/2 hours)! They really bring so much joy to mine and Luke's lives. First of all, Sabree, otherwise known as Sabs or Saby Baby...she is my little helper. I don't know how I would survive motherhood without her. She is always aware of what is going on around her. She notices when I have a lot going on and she's always eager to help out. She is the world's best little cleaner. There are times when she will disappear for a while and surprise me with a spotless room. Granted she can make huge messes too but I can always count on her cleaning it up perfectly! She is incredible! I love her so much and I'm so thankful that she is so thoughtful and helpful.




Oliver is my "good" Spiderman (that's what he calls himself too). He always rescues me with his smiles, his sweet eyes and his laugh! He really just melts my heart. This morning he went to preschool and he got to dress up in his Halloween costume. He was so excited. He's so funny though, he is really into being handsome right now. Everyday after he gets dressed he wants me to spray him with Dad's cologne. Then he asks if he "smells handsome". This morning was no different, he got on his spiderman costume, sprayed the cologne and asked, "Mom, do I smell handsome?". So if you are ever around him and notice that he smells like Hugo or Chrome make sure you tell him that he is handsome. He'll love you forever!!!





J-bug is full of personality. She has so many smiles and squeals! She has been practicing using the phone lately. She always finds the phone, pushes tons of buttons, and then holds it to her ear. The problem is that lately she's actually been calling people. The other day I tried making a phone call but my phone said "other line in use". Then I found Jaylee with the phone and the timer said 20 minutes. Who knows who she called. Today she must have pushed through my phone book and then pushed talk on Grandma Adams number. So, if you get a phone call from my number and just hear a lot of squeals it's just Jaylee talking to you! She has been so fun. She makes us laugh all of the time. No one can get enough of Jaylee. Our biggest problem seems to be at dinner time. The kids argue every night about who gets to sit next to Jaylee at the dinner table. We seriously have to rotate! She's just so much fun, even during meals!

I feel so lucky to have 3 healthy, happy babies. We have truly been blessed!

Recent pictures of our kids!

Look at these cute kids!!! We got family pictures last night and I could help taking a few of my own pictures! I wanted to post the latest pictures since I haven't blogged in about 2 months. It's amazing how much children can change in such a short amount of time. The kids are growing up and looking more and more cute everyday! I love my 3 little rascals!!!

Sabree 6 years old

Oliver 3 years old

Jaylee is 1 year 1 day in this picture!

My baby is ONE!

Well here is a picture of my 1 year old!!! She turned one on Sunday, October 26th. I can't believe it has already been a year. She has been such a blessing in my life. She started out at 8 lbs. 2 oz and 21 inches long (my smallest baby). The other day I took her to the doctor and she was 24 lbs and 34 inches long. She's a tall, "healthy" baby!

I really feel so grateful to have been blessed with her in my life. She has been such a joy to have in our family. She adds so many smiles to my days. She has always had a very sweet, gentle spirit. Until recently she rarely screamed or cried. Now she has found her voice and uses it on occassion. She gets stuck at the top of the stairs and will yell her jibberish until you go and get her. She is also very vocal as she stands next to the tub. She will yell until you find her standing next to the bathtub. Then she will smile and sign bath...she loves bath time! Along with her screaming language she has been developing her sign language quite a bit. Some of the signs she know now are: more, please, all done, milk, drink, bath, dog, cat... she also tries to sign thank you but it always turns into peekaboo! She's doing pretty good though. She is so fun and so smart! I thank Heavenly Father everyday for sending her to me! I'm a very lucky mom!

It didn't take her very long to figure out how to dig into the cake! She loved it!

She was so sad when we had to take the cake away.

It's been a while!

It has been too long since I have posted anything. I kept thinking about all the catching up I needed to do and how long it was going to take me. Well, I decided that I'm not going to catch up. I'm going to start with what is going on now. If I find time later I may catch up then...probably never!!!
