*PlAyInG iN tHe SnOw*

So Justice was so extremely EXCITED when he woke up and saw the SNOW this morning! He has been wanting to play in the SNOW ever since we bought all of his SNOW gear. I felt like all I was doing this morning was getting after him and I decided that there was a better way to take out my aggressions than to yell at him. So I got him in his SNOW clothes, and boots and we headed outside. I shoveled the walks and driveway and that helped me calm down a bit. Brad thinks I am so weird because I enjoy shoveling the SNOW!

How can I even get mad at this face? He would be happy if he was outside all day long!

Grandma Cheryl got him a SNOW fling to throw SNOWballs with. He had so much fun with that. I remember having one when I was little, and I loved it too!

We couldn't stay out to long because we had to eat lunch before it was time for Preschool, but it was long enough that my hair was destroyed and I had to wash it again and redo it.

These last four pictures were requests by Justice. He wanted me to take some pictures of him running! He is so funny. I feel so bad. sometimes I feel like I am always getting mad at him and expect him to act older that he is. Poor boy, I love him so much, and thank goodness he loves me unconditionally. I have so much fun with him and hope I can get life figured out a little better so I can enjoy it a little more and not be a grumpy Mom all the time. I love being a Mom and think it is the best job in the world!

What we've been doing


My friend Megan invited me and Jen to go to the Dinosaur Museum at Thanksgiving Point with her last week. My mom was off of work, so I was able to spend some time with Justice, without his brothers. Justice had so much fun with Ryker and Ryder, and he loved talking to Emma.

Of course I made us all pose for a quick photo. Don't you love self timer?:)


Justice had only been here one other time and he was pretty little, so he didn't remember it. He loved be able to dig in the sand and not have Mom getting after him for doing it!


The boys had just as much fun, or maybe even more fun playing in the bushes in the parking lot! They were all so cute and really played cute together, and Justice can't wait to play with Ryker again and his new friend Ryder. Thanks Megan for calling we had a great time and are looking forward to getting together again soon.

Well I had another girls night. We went to Katie's new house, which was so cute! Katie you should have been an interior decorator. We did a fun little gift exchange and had some chips and dip and brownies. It is always fun to get together with these girls. Thanks to Heidi, she is so good to plan these every month and make sure we do not miss one.


We are posing with the gifts we got from the exchange. Morgan was a bit excited about the cookies!

Lets see, what else have we been up to? Um okay so we have all been sick for the last week! But Talon has been the worst. Poor kids, I hate when they are sick, it breaks my heart. Lets just say I cleaned up enough throw up, that you would have thought it was an amusement park! Hopefully we are about done with it, "knock on wood" , every time I even think that, it starts up again!

We have also been working on our house every chance we get. We are hoping to be done within the next few weeks. We will probably not move in until after Christmas to avoid anymore stress than necessary. I definitely have mixed emotions about moving out of my parents house. It will be nice to have our own place again, but I have enjoyed living with my parents. They are so good to us and the kids love it!
