My Angels

After finishing out snowman the kids decided that they had to make angels.
Tucker wasn't big enough to enjoy the snow last year. So we are having SOOO much fun watching him this year... His one of those kids that would live outside year round if you'd let him.

Avery has a little to close to the side walk for this one.

I sure LOVE "MY LITTLE ANGELS"

WHAT'S IMPORTANT

I had a million things on my To DO list for today but when we woke up to a bunch of new snow I decided to do what's important.

WE woke up at 7 and by nine we were dressed and out in the snow. It was SOOOO much fun to go out with the kids and build a snowman.

Tucker is ALL BOY and of course I had to drag him in the house kicking and screaming because he would have stayed out all day if I'd let him.

I hope this holiday season we can all remember to do what's important...

It's such a blessing to work in a job were I get as much time off as I do. I'm sure there will be more fun pictures to come...

Time for food....

Jordyn wants nothing to do with a bottle, but so far she seems to like her sippy cup okay. We'll keep our fingers crossed.

None of my kids have liked plain baby ceareal, and Jordyn isn't about to start a new trend. She won't even open her mouth for it. But she sure likes her bananas. When she sees the spoon coming she reaches for your hand to try and help.

To you and Yours...

MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!! I just thought I would put a little post up to tell all of you both near and far how much we love each one of you. And how greatful we are to have you in our lives. At this Christmas season we are so blessed to have sooo many WONDERFUL family members and friends in our life. Serving in the Young Womens presidency has provided me with the opportunity to be able to give the Christmas lesson. And since there isn't one I have been able to make up my own. As I thought upon what I wanted to do I decided I wanted to girls to have the opportunity to think about what it would have been like to be Mary. As I prepared this I have more fully realized how amazingly blessed we are to have Christ as our savior and brother and how without him my life would be meaningless. So as you reflect upon the reason for this Christmas Holiday I hope you take a moment to think about the role of the Savior in your own life. From our family to you, Merry Christmas and may you always keep the spirit of the season in your own life. Love Jared, Kassey, Avery, Tucker, and Jordyn

A little Jordyn

Here are some pics of Jordyn hangin out in her high chair. I took her for her 5 1/2 month check-up. and here's the stats.

Weight: 14lbs. 7 ounces (30%)

Lenght:25 inches (30%)

Out of all my kids she is still the smallest a baby. But large in personality.. we sure enjoy her

Decorating for Christmas

Here's Jared getting our lights hung up.. There are a lot of lots on our street. The kids just love looking at them

Tucker took the Job of decorating the tree VERY SERIOUS.

Here's Avery placing the Ornament just right.

On Saturday we took the kids up the mountain and hiked around until they found a tree. It's our family tradition to go out to breakfast then go cut a tree. I forgot to take the camera for that part. While we were hiking around Tuck slipped and shoved a twig in his nose. It gave him a pretty good nose bleed. He's such a trooper he hiked ALL OVER. Avery is ALL GIRL she didn't like hiking through the bushes/weeds it was a lot better when we got to where the snow was. All in ALL we had a good time with many more to come.

SNOW!!!

The beginning of October we had alomst 2 feet of snow fall. The kids LOVED it.

Here they are out playing at 10a.m.

Since Tucker was born in March of '06 this is really the first time he has been big enough to enjoy the snow. ANd he LOVED IT!!! He was furious when I told him it was time to come inside.

Avery wanted to catch all the snow flakes on her tounge:-)

WHO IS THIS???

We are taking a poll as to who Jordyn looks like so take a guess is this Avery or is it Jordyn??? Let us know what you think??

Cathching up...

This fall we went with a friend and her two kids to the pumpkin patch. The kids loved it.

A more recent Jordyn

Here's a little more recent picture of Jordyn. In fact they were taken today!! I know you are all SUPER SHOCKED.... She is a FABULOUS BABY!! She is 5 months old, sleeps all night and hardly ever cries.. what more could a mother of 3 ask for?? And is almost always this happy..

Painting at Grandmas

Avery was concentrating so hard on painting her bird house she wouldn't even talk to anyone. ( which is a first for Avery:-)
Tucker was hard at work.

We had a GREAT time at Gran'mas painting bird houses!!!!

Jordyn!!!!

Here are a few more pics.. of Jordyn these were taken the day we blessed her.

I'll try and get some recent ones on. She is now 5 months old.

Avery's b-day

Here's Jordyn. the shirt says it all...

I know this is long past due but here is the "butterfly cake" that Avery wanted for her b-day. It took about 10 hours to make but she sure loved it.

Meet the KIDS!!!!

Here is Jordyn at 2 1/2 months
Tucker is 2 and can't you just see the mischief in those sweet little eyes.

And here is Avery she is 4 going on 20....

What kids do for fun

Here are some misc. pics of the kids having fun with each other. They are like any normal brother and sister. They love eachother most of the time and then there's the times you have to pull them apart.

Some 2 against 1 time with Dad

Since Jared has been on nights for the past two months, he sleeps all day and really doesn't have time to do anything with me or the kids. So, when I saw this I thought I better take some pics of them playing with Dad. Avery deserves a good tickling and her dad is the perfect one for the job. When this happens, as you can see by the pics, Tucker thinks he needs to come save the day.
