what we've been up to....

Everybody wanted some new pics of Sully so here they are. He really likes his sunglasses and says something alot like cheese already when he sees a camera. The one in his high chair was after his first experience with The Girl Scouts of America. He really enjoyed his first Thin Mint immensely a big shout out to Grandma and Grandpa who sent lots of Girl Scout Cookies that in our house were gone way too quickly. Oh and here is the living room after the furniture rearranging sorry again about the dark maybe once the curtains are up I will take some day time pics. A big thank you to Vanessa and Jacob. V for the encouragement to finally do something as usual and J for the moving of the piano and his secret placement genius abilities. However, Aaron wants no more input from either one of you HAHA!

What we've been up to....

Well there's a pic of the girls on St. Patrick's Day that they have been wanting to post on the blog but I have been a big slacker as of late! The other was just a cute pic of Sully and Dad on the swings at the park. I thought as usual they look just a like. The last pics are of our new family room. Aaron had a week off and he probably moved every piece of large furniture we own. We've been trying to make more room since our house still isn't selling and we are starting to worry we will be stuck like sardines forever! I should have taken the pics during the day cause they are so dark but the house is never clean during the day so I opted for dark rather than dirty.

Little D turns 6!

Well in some ways this girl seems more 16 then 6.... but we had fun celebrating her Bday at home a little early on Sunday. She really is a huge help to me and I'm grateful for her everyday. I am always amazed at what she understands and how smart she is. Her ability to use words has always been baffling. Always asking "Mom am I using this word correctly?" I mean who says that? She's super funny and once she has the giggles forget about it. Her little brothers love her to death (and as Landan told Sully one day, "She's almost like Mom just littler"). She's Finley's best friend (even if she does say if Finley's dream of becoming a pig farmer becomes a reality she will never come visit because that is "just plain disgusting"). And the boys love and are driven crazy by her in equal measures (but what else is to be expected from big brothers who can't handle that she is always right?). Here she is with some of her favorite presents. We enjoyed our pink sprinkle cake immensely and to end the evening we had a Shaw dance party after watching HSM3! We are headed to Provo this weekend to do a little more celebrating with Uncle Jor and Aunt Brena!

So we have entered the strange world of Cub Scouts! At the Blue and Gold Baquet a couple of weeks ago Aidan and Tristan earned their Bobcat badge (after a little face painting and being held upside down). As a Mom maybe I'm not meant to understand what goes on at these kind of things but the boys had fun so I guess that is all that matters. Now they have been sanding like crazy a block of wood in preparation for the next big event the Pinewood Derby. Aaron seems to be enjoying it way too much...

Sully trouble

Sully has a problem and it's the fact that he likes to do what Mom is doing at all times. It makes my job a little tougher but look how cute he is in those bunny ears!
