Update

My sister in law Anna brought a bag of dress up clothes for my girls and holy smokes they are wearing those dresses like crazy. Gabby changes her clothes about 50 times a day and is always wearing a princess dress of some sort. 

On Wednesday I fed the missionaries and cute Sister Gummo got transferred yesterday. She has been in our ward for about 6 months and I've fed her a bunch of times. I am sad to see her go. I made the missionaries homemade Olive Garden chicken fettuccine and homemade Olive Garden bread sticks. It was yummy. I always like to make something tasty for the missionaries. 

I worked at the cannery for a couple of hours on Thursday. It was pretty boring, I was really happy I was doing a half shift. Working at the cannery for four hours is so long! 

Friday night we took a Little Caesars pizza and went and ate at a park as a family. We also hung out as a whole family in the yard for a few hours yesterday. It was a really nice day and we were just hanging out. It was fun.

Yesterday I hit what felt like a million yard sales. Neighborhood yard sales are my favorite thing. I love when you can just drive through a neighborhood and check out tons of sales in the same spot. I bought a really nice hot pink winter coat for Gabby next winter for $.50. Score! So yesterday I bought 3 kid bike helmets, a Gabby coat, a Gabby jacket, a United States puzzle, 3 kid movies, and the next size up Gabby bike all for $16. And by the way Gabby needed a new coat and a new jacket because she had outgrown hers. Sweet sauce!

Last night I went over to Gabe and Christy's to watch a movie in their backyard. Hart and Jory were there also. Lucky for me they couldn't get the movie to work for almost 2 hours so I just got to chat with them and have some Christy rice crispy treats and some Gabe popcorn with orange juice. It was perfect. I just wanted to hang out for a bit anyway. They finally got the movie going around 11:00 and I bailed quickly after that. 


Kid Quotes:
Corbin:
On Friday night before he went to bed I told him he needed to hurry and read me two stories. He started to whine about it and I wasn't very sympathetic and then he started to cry and said, "well I had a really bad day." It was cute and sad and funny. I then sat him down and he told me all about his troubles and I hugged him and listened to him. It was kind of a cute parenting moment for me. It seems like that was one of our first heart to heart conversations like that.
Gabby:
"You freaked me out."
"You scared me and I wiggled."
Talking to Scott, "Daddy mom gave me two hugs and two kisses. Did you know when she gave me two hugs and two kisses it made me so tired?"
Piper:
I was reviewing with the kids our names, our address, and phone number so Piper kept saying my name after that.
"You are Mitzi. I am Mitzi too."
"You are Mitzi, mom?"
"I'm a girl, you member."
Ryan:
He slept through the night every night last week. He's predictably unpredictable these days. He cut a top tooth and a second top tooth will be following. 
First time in the swing.

These kids love to use my house as their fort/jungle gym.

The weather was pretty warm this week so the kids ran through the sprinker.


Ryan ended up putting that rug on himself. Hilarious!

  1. To be in kindergarten and have a bad day. So sad! Corbin in such a great little trooper. Be glad he would talk to you. That is a special moment. Gabby is the ultimate princess in her wonderful dresses. Cute Piper and Ryan watching TV. You have a darling family. Such joy.
