wagon fun


this is my favorite, each one has such a great expression that it made the pic so much fun.



wesley and ian experienced their first christmas together, wesley was almost 1 year and ian almost 2 months. since neither of them could really tell us what they wanted for christmas (we're now guessing, they would have been happiest with just the boxes and paper to play with), we decided to buy them a wagon. it has come in so handy and been great fun. yesterday we loaded all three kids into the wagon and pulled them around the yard, it was fun to watch. we're definately going to have to invest in another wagon or an add on if they keep growing (and their is no stopping that). poor wesley had the worse seat, especially when they went up hill. enjoy the pics

spring break










for spring break we took a little trip down to st. george and had a great vacation with the children. they had a wonderful time, and it was really fun to go swimming for the first time since last august. we climbed the red rocks, swam until we were pruny, played in the sand dunes (and brought half of it home with us in the car) and relaxed in summer clothes :). Amberlee, Mark and their children went with us and it was so great for the children to play with their cousins. the most surprising things were: wesley wanted to go to the pool more than play in the sand, fiona HATED the water toy that we bought for her to play in and would rather drown herself than sit in it, and kelly after checking out a ton of different outlet stores and such in search of the perfect summer dresses finally found them at the walmart (if only we had known sooner, we could have saved so much time being frustrated in the fitting rooms). well, here are our pics. we really had a wonderful time and the boys keep asking when we can go back.

just some fun pics

it's been a while since i've had a chance to sit down and post some new pics. fiona is really funny with the camera, whenever i point it at her she runs right up to it and wants to grab it. it really makes it hard to catch pics of her, but these ones turned out pretty cute.




ian is potty-training and he's basically done, but still has "bad" days, when he just doesn't want to deal with it. but we made a deal with him to have so many days without accidents and he could pick out a new toy. he made it (though it wasn't consecutive and we're still working on it as i mentioned above) and he picked out the peter pan dagger and belt that he saw once at the disney store. now he wants the bow and arrow (maybe we could use it to motivate him some more ;).) and i made him a hat; he is all about the accesories. we already had the pirate stuff and it was really cute to watch wesley and ian fight as pan and hook. wesley finally dropped the sword, picked up a toy gun and said he was just going to shoot ian. he wanted results. they are so funny to watch and have such a great time playing together. (p.s. sorry some are kind of fuzzy, but they give you the idea)
