FaMiLy HoMe EvEnIng


Things that make me chuckle: This last Monday we had a family home evening lesson on the Holy Ghost. We take our lessons from the Nursery manual. The coloring activity was the above picture. After telling him what the pictures said he promptly took his crayon box and picked out the white saying it was the Holy Ghost. But, of course, the white didn't show up on the paper so he switched to brown. He would color and say "look mom I draw the Holy Ghost!" Then he preceded to draw a baby Holy Ghost, mommy Holy Ghost and daddy Holy Ghost. Then he drew baby Ellie! :) I labeled them on the picture but you probably can't see it. TOO CUTE!!

Funny Dreams

I've never had a baby do this...of course Ellie is only my second baby so I guess there are a lot of things that my babies have never done. I digress...

It's the CUTEST, FUNNIEST, MOST ADORABLE thing!

Ellie LAUGHS in her sleep!

It starts out as a HUGE smile that covers her whole face then she starts to LAUGH...I mean, FULL BODY, ROLLING laugh! Then it goes as quickly as it came and she's back to peacefully sleeping!

Ellie also smiles all the time at the ceiling fan just like Gavin did when he was a baby. Jason and I have a theory: there must be angels dancing and playing on those ceiling fans, watching over our little ones and making sure they are happy!

Cutie-Pa-Tooties



Taming the BEAST

Saturday Jason and Josh tamed the beast...aka our back yard!! It looks great now. They even cleaned the concrete outside so Gavin can play on it. Great job guys! Now lets not let it get so crazy next time, honey!BEFORE
