March

 We have had some interesting weather this "spring" or so they call it. We made our first snowman of the year. It wasn't very big, but we loved him. Chloe named him "snowy" and played with him for an hour until he was back to a pile of mushy snow.

cute little princess in pigtails. 

Just try and take her ipad away, she will bite your head off!! 

This was probably my favorite thing ever. I was making dinner and gave ash a brownie, which she threw at me and yellled "NO I want cabbage!!!" ha ha so she ate half a cup of cabbage instead....weirdo. 

We had a few nice days that we took advantage of and walked round the block. the girls were fascinated by the sewer grate, and dropped a million rocks in there. 

Going through my phone pics I found 89 of these babies. ha ha Chloe is hilarious! 

Ashley got a really nasty flu right after Chloe got over it. She couldn't eat or drink anything without throwing it up, I literally had to sit right beside her all day cause she could NOT make it into the bucket.   It was gross, I hate puke, but its all worth it for the snuggles amirite?? 

another nice day out for a stroll. 

Chlo said my feet were gross so she rubbed lotion on them for a good half an hour, she's hired!! 

We had a picnic with some of our favorite peeps, I wish we could get together with these guys more. 

She has been obsessed with laundry baskets lately, Chloe pushes her up and down the hall and around the island, and then gets mad when Ashley can't push her back! ha ha 

Watchin some 'toons. 

Sometimes we kill time at Toys r us, they have so much fun, but it is a constant nagging "Can we buy this?" But I am an expert at saying no. 

If you lose Ash at the pool she is 100% of the time....in a locker. I have to draaaaag her out of there. 

I was having some serious Tina withdrawals and decided over Easter break to just drive there by myself. I wasn't nervous about it at all, but maybe I should have been a little more prepared since I got lost a few times. ha ha who knew I had google maps right on my phone?! I do now!! Tina was the best host ever as always, she took us for Frozen yogurt for supper. Chloe was in HEAVEN!!! 

We brought some mermaid pajamas back with us and some adorable fedoras. 

Ash runs out of her room "I'M SUPERNAN!!!" tee hee love this girl.

Is anything better than babies sleeping?? There isn't. I totally sneak into my kids room and snuggle them for a while and breathe in the sweetness. Ashley is going to be 3 on Wednesday....ridiculous!!! 

special day

Chloe says some funny stuff....I have been trying to write some of them down when I remember, here are some as of late. 

 C :"Miss Jill has cracks." me :Huh?? C: "She has cracks by her eyes"

 Comes to me Sobbing "I just can't write letters and number the way
they are right" me: what do u mean!? " I can't write bath, or wall or
shower... And lexie CAN!" I can only write my name and Ashley's name
and a few things and lexie can write everything!! (Pure devastation)

Chloe arguing with Natalie: yes I am AM the oldest, cause I'm 4 and I

have super long legs!

C: When I am old as daddy I will be so tall. And when u get as tall as
the clouds u can see Heavenly Father and Santa

We just got gas and Chloe says "it smells like boat in here" haaa ha

Driving in the car we saw a house with about a hundred old junk cars.
Chloe says "they must be having a birthday party"

A couple months ago we started doing P90x. It is quite the workout!! These were Chloe and Ashley's "before" pictures....i will spare you seeing mine and Reegs, They aren't pretty! 

Landon convinced us we need to drink protein so we can bulk up. ha ha Ash loves protein shakes! 

There is a bus stop right in front of our house and the kids get excited every time they see a bus go by. They have asked us a million times to ride it, so one day we did. We rode it downtown to get a hot dog and then came home. They loved it! ha ha it was like a roller coaster ride! 

Ash with her monkey and her 'ippo' They were presents on the same trip and so are always together and one cannot be without the other! 

Every month Chloe gets to have her 'Special Day' She gets to bring snack and parents get to come visit. But since I always have extra kids I haven't been able to go until last month. 

It was so much fun to see her at school with all her friends, she is quite the little bossy pants. But I knew that she would be! Her teacher says if they don't know something they just ask Chloe, she knows everything that goes on! 

She was so excited to have us there, and Ashley was in heaven! But now she knows what she is missing and cries every time Chloe goes to school.  

Doing the calendar...she is huge!! 

She was dying to bring this blog book for her show and tell. It has all her baby pictures in it. Loved being able to see what she does all day while she is gone. while i DO miss her when she is gone, it is SO nice to have a break from the constant talking....because it never, ever ends. And why must she talk soooo LOUD!!??! ha ha We still love her but it's just a nice break ;)

Easter 2012.

Whew starting to get caught up, Easter was not too far back :)

We dyed eggs, u know the usual. The kids loved it, and Ash didn't spill any dye this year so i would consider it a huge success!

Ash however did not grasp the concept and just kept smashing and peeling her eggs. 

Chloe's egg with her name on it. She is getting to be SUCH a good little writer. she writes all her letters and will sit there while I tell her how to spell whole pages of words. She will sit and do it forever, she can't WAIT until she can read and write as good as Lexie (her 8 yr old cousin)

More cute little braids. I love this shirt on Ash, I made it out of a womans tank top once upon a time. 

She is huge..

The Easter bunny made it to our house, loving the morning after braids hair. Chloe hoarded all her candy and I don't think she has even touched it (I might have gone in and thrown most of it away). But ash sat down and ate every single piece before all the eggs were even found. ha ha

We had colored eggs for breakfast!

The girls in their Easter dresses. 

Then we headed over to Nana's for Easter dinner, which was delicious!! I even made my first funeral potatoes! whoop whoop they were pretty good, not as good as Karen's or My moms...who makes them with frosted flakes! ha ha 

Then Karen took all the kids outside for a game that she had put together. There was a giant game board taped out on the driveway and they rolled a giant dice to do all kinds of activities. It was crazy you guys, she puts SO much work into the things she does, i love it! 

The kids had a blast of course!! 

Then there was an Easter Egg hunt in the backyard where they got WAY too much candy, but had a blast!

Cutest cousins ever!!! (and how cute is ashley in this picture?? I wanna squish her!!)

And another selfie to prove I was there too :)
