Christmas fun

My dad was Santa this year for a ward party. Kate was so confused because he sounded like the G-pa she adores so much but he sure didn't look like him!

Baking with the kids. Sprinkles made it just about everywhere in the kitchen, but we had fun.

2 Weeks old

So he's been here for 2 weeks now and he's doing great. He's such a good baby, we really scored this time! The girls love to hold him, getting them to let go when Gavin's done is another thing though. The girls are nuts, always screaming and fighting and he just stays in lala land which is great, their craziness doesn't faze him a bit. We're really enjoying our new addition!

Maris Farms

We had such a fun time with the girls at the pumpkin patch! Kate was loving the animals, and was just so curious about everything. She just kept saying "What's that?" over and over again. She and Sophs are so cute together.

Growin Girls

Preschool started last week and Sophie was SO excited to be back in Miss Cindy's class. She loves going to school and hanging out with all her friends there.

The girls sure are cute together! I wish I knew how to keep them from fighting all the time, they definitely love and play hard. This baby better come out with boxing gloves to defend himself! I feel like a referee most of the time.

Seaside

Jumping with the boys.

Lunch? Any tricks on keeping kids from eating sand?

Probably the last little vacay as a family of 4... I can't believe we're gonna have 3 kids! I can't believe he'll be here in 2.5 months!!

After like 20 mins in the water Miss Kate's lips were blue and she was shivering so we'd strip her, scoop her up and run in for a warm bath. She was so cute!!

Seaside

We had such a great time in Seaside last weekend! The girls loved the sand and Kate was nuts about the water. She's fearless and just went right in. It was so nice to get away togeher and just relax, overeat and play.

Fun in the Sun

The girls and I went to this splash park and had such a blast. It was Kate's 1st time so I wasn't sure how she'd do but she totally loved it. She biffed it a few times but just kept going at it. She's pretty tough. Love the beautiful weather!!
