Update

The weather has been so beautiful this week. It makes me excited for summer although I actually wish the weather would stay like this for a few months rather than weeks. I think it’s perfect when it’s in the 70’s. Not too hot, not too cold. I still had some Christmas money so on Monday I took off and hit a million stores. I was on the hunt for a new swimming suit, Sunday outfit, and Easter outfits for my kids. I found everything except for a Sunday outfit. Seriously I have been looking for something since October. I always like to have a brand new outfit when we bless a baby (because let’s face it I earned that). Anyway I never found one, so then I wanted to find an Easter outfit and I haven’t found one. Oh well!

On Tuesday I did a ton of yard work. I had a lot of weeding and raking.I love yard work though so I like it when I have work to do out there. I’m not very good at growing things but I can keep my yard weeded and well groomed.

On Friday I went to Corbin’s class and then I came home and fed Ryan and went to the temple. There are some serious perks to Scott’s job. What other mom of 4 little kids can do that? Friday night I went to my friend’s house and chatted with her while she sewed me a swimming suit skirt and an insert into the top of my swimsuit. She’s got some mad skills. I’m so glad I have a new cute modest swimsuit now. I mean it’s March but if you try to get a swimming suit in the summer you can’t find one.

On Saturday Scott and I both worked like crazy. Scott cleaned out our garage, like pulled everything out and swept and mopped the floor clean. I spent three days organizing my kids’ clothes and finally finished last night. That is the worst job. At 11:00 in the morning yesterday it was 50 degrees and my kids were outside in their swimming suits playing in the hose. They had to take a hot bath after that one!

Kids:

Corbin: (I overheard this one) “Gabby you can ask mom, she might say yes, she might say no, so good luck.” Ha!

Gabby: “Hi gross baby, cute one.” (He is a gross, cute baby. He’s adorable but he’s always wet with barf and drool. It’s disgusting, but he’s the cutest).

Piper: “Can you take a picture of me?”

“Mommy, you know what? Daddy’s birthday's coming up.”

“Uh oh mommy, it’s a ghost. We better get out of here.”

Ryan: He cut his first tooth this week. He’s pretty low maintenance in the morning but by afternoon evening he wants to be held all the time. Last night I was weeding with one hand and holding Ryan in the other hand. I was hauling him around like a sack of potatoes and he was loving every minute. I had to rock him to sleep tonight but I don’t even care. He may or may not be my last one (I’m 100% undecided on that one) and I am going to soak up every last minute with my cute, gross baby.

I took this picture after I finished taking a nap with him. Love him!

This is when Piper wanted me to take her picture. Don't mind her mismatched outfit.

Crazy kids!

Brrr!

Daddy cuddles.

I'm laughing in this picture because I could see that Scott was taking our picture. I'm not sure if the picture gives justice to how much all 4 of my kids wanted my attention at the same time. Ha!

Every week the primary has 2 kids be up front and be a "reverent child" during the beginning of primary. This week Corbin and Gabby both got picked. We thought it was too cute!!!
