Happy Easter everyone! This was taken at Walmart a few days ago. The one they gave us is better, but it is still pretty cute! :o) Emily was crying when we took her away from the bunny. She wanted to sit there all day! She loved it!
Daniel is getting so big. I was talking to someone today and said out loud that he would be 4 this July, and I almost couldn't say it!
I can't believe that that much time has passed! Emily is 17 months old, going on 15! I don't know what I will do when they are teenagers! I am scared!

Life is going pretty good here in Missouri! Doug is trying to pull in some over time here and there because we are trying to get into a house, and the more down payment the better. I am working 3 days a week, and it seems like we never see eachother anymore. He is working today, so we are having our own Easter tomorrow with the kids.

Playing at the park! Daniel thought he was pretty hot stuff turning everyone around on the merry-go-round! The little boy on there is his good friend.

He is in love with swinging too! As you can see, he loves to go high! It is never high enough for him.

Emily just loves everything! Swinging, rocking on that...dog?!...the slide!

It was a beautiful day! It was 80 degrees here week ago, and tonight we are getting 1-8 inches of snow! Can you believe that!

Can't wait fot summer! The kids are going to love it. They are old enough to both enjoy it. We are also going to Utah to visit the fam this June. They will get to see all their cousins! It will be a fun summer...counting down...

Hey everyone! It has been a while since I have posted, but here I am. I am now on facebook, and so if you want to see more pictures you can go there and look me up!

I wanted to put a few pictures on here though, this is Emily doing her makeup with me. She thinks she is so cool!

Isn't she just adorable! She loves to get her picture taken. When you grab the camera and point it at her, she will stop, smile and say Cheeze! I love it. This was taken at work. She loves to play on the stairs, and so we have to "lock" the stairs. She is a little too confident of herself. She is my little daredevil.

This is my little buddy! He loves his little buddy Elmo! He got a new "big" bed a while ago, and he has been doing so good sleeping on his own. He has slept on his own for quite a while now, but he was so happy to get a bed like his cousins.

He fell asleep like this. He is just so adorable when he is sleeping! He has been so sweet lately. He was just laying on my lap tonight because he wanted to! Gotta love that!

We Have this awesome place here that you can go feed the Elk and the Buffalo. The Buffalo were not around this day, but the kids loved it. It was Emily's first time there and actually caring about it. She was so mad when we ran out of carrots. She went up to other people later and started begging for their carrots, it was pretty cute! Daniel is an old pro with the Elk. He loves going there. He thinks that we only buy carrots for feeding the buffalo...and sadly...maybe we do?! hehehe! I guess I better get on that...

This is my hubby, Doug! We took a temple trip the other day, and thought I would sneak a picture in. Isn't he cute?! He is wearing my sunglasses, but he pulls them off pretty good doesn't he?

Dougs mom watched the kids for us, so we go the whole day to ourselves! For all you Utahns out there, yes, it takes all day to go to the temple here. 3 1/2 hours there, 2 hours in, and 3 1/2 hours back. It was nice to go to the temple, but just as nice to have an uninterupted car ride! Those are few and far between lately! :o)

This is just another fun day at work. The kids were playing dress up, and loving every minute of it. Daniel was a dinasaur, and Emily was a ballerina/little house on the prarie girl!

She wore those shades almost all day. She loves sun glasses! I have picture after picture of her in sun glasses, because anytime she sees them, she puts them on. I think she looks so cute in them!

A few weeks ago Raelyn came to visit. This was her first flight, and as far as I know, enjoyed the experience. Daneil and Emily were a little shy at first, but as you can see in the pictures she won them over pretty quick.

Daniel called her his girlfriend and carried her purse for her everywhere. It was adorable! She spent most of the time with her friend (that is who is kissing Daniels other cheek), but stayed with us for a while. We went out to breakfast, took her to dinner at a Japanese steak house, and just had alot of fun.

Daniel still asks where Raelyn is, and when I tell him she is in Utah, he asks why we can't got here too...

Hopefully he remembers her when we visit this year. It will be fun to see how he reacts when he sees her again.

We had beautiful weather the other day, and decided to take a trip to the park to enjoy it to the fullest. Emily had a blast! This was her first time on a big slide that she could go down all by herself. It was so cute! It was carry her up, slide down, and carry her up again for about 30 minutes straight. You would think I would be in better shape!

Daniel swung on the swings the entire time! It is his favorite past-time. He loves to swing high up to the sky! He is learning to pump, but loves his dad to push him the best, because he can go the highest then!

Daniel got Curious George P.J.'s for Christmas and a Curious George stuffed animal, as you can tell he loved them! He had a blast opening presents, and at one point said "Mom, I am tired of opening presents!" Poor boy, huh! :o)

Emily could have cared less about everything. She got an apple in her stocking, and that is all she cared about. She ate that all morning, and at one point crawled onto daddy's lap, picked up his arm and put it on her. It was the cutest thing I have ever seen!

We spent Christmas all over the place. Some of it with my boss and their family, and then the rest with Doug's family. It was just a really great day!

But thank goodness, we finally took the tree down and our house is back to normal! I love the holidays, but I also just love the day to day life!

The holidays are done, New years has come and gone, and I have finally got high speed internet. YIPPIE! Now I can blog like the rest of you maniacs! :o)

This was the picture we used for our Christmas card (sorry if we forgot anyone). Emily was not wanting to take pictures that day as you can tell. Daniel was loving every minute of it though. He loves the camera! He will put something on, or bring me something funny and ask me to take a picture!
