Soccer

Chayse started soccer on Tues night! It was his first year of outdoor and he had a blast at his first practice! He has come so far from his season of indoor. He is learning how to run and kick the ball at the same time. (something I haven't quite mastered yet in my 27 yrs)

Also, his dad is his coach and Chayse is loving it! I love seeing the huge smile on Chayse's face when he knows he did a good job, and knows his dad will be so proud of him!

Here is a pic from his first practice! I will take more of his first game, (if this little guy doesnt come before then!)

They make me smile constantly...

Today was one of those days that I just felt so overwhelmed with love for my kids. I am so lucky to be their mom! Yes, being a mom can be hard, tiring, frustrating, etc...but honestly every.time they make me smile...I am reassured that this is my calling and this is exactly where I need to be!

My Dancin Girl!

Alexa started dance back in January and is absolutely loving it. Though unfortunately I think she inherited my coordination for choreographed dancing haha! This is her first time in dance and she has definitely improved over the last couple of months! :) We are excited to see her perform in her dance recital in May!

Chayse Lost Another Tooth!

Chayse was soooo excited to lose another tooth last week. I pulled this tooth out as well, and Chayse was brave and loved the fact that it didn't even hurt! Once again he plopped that baby right under his pillow, anxiously awaitinf the Tooth Fairy's gift! She didn't disappoint and that made for a very happy 5 yr old!

Alexa Gets A Big Girl Bed!

Forr Alexa's birthday she got a big girl bed. We worried about switching her because she LOVES LOVES LOVES her crib We knew we had to make the transition sometime though! We can't have her in kindergarten and still kickin it in her crib! She really enjoys it, though it does take her longer to get to sleep because she has the freedom to get out and she is always sneakin more toys in her bed. :

Alexa turned 3!

I am way behind on this, but Alexa turned 3 on Feb 7th. Holy cow! My baby girl is 3? What the heck?!

We definitely celebrated the heck out of her birthday! She had a pink pancake party with her little girl friends, a family party in Layton with both sides of the family, and a little family celebration on her actual birthday. I will add pics from all that when I get on my computer later.

She is such a fun amd adorable little girl. She loves to play with her babies and her barbies. She LOVES makeup...much to the dislike.of her Dad! :)

We love her dearly and are so thankful.to have her in our family!
