What do you think about my little new baby Gertrude?

So I found this funny website from a another girls blog and I couldn't help but try it and get a little laugh for the day.

Statton gets a haircut!

So my cousin Analee was kind enough to cut Statton's hair when she met me at my house so we could go to SLC for our girly weekend. It was pretty cute since it was his first haircut. I'd been hesistant about cutting it myself so I left it to someone who's been trained to cut hair. He liked having his hair combed with the water but wasn't sure about the trimming with the scissors.

Merry Christmas!

Just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. We've been enjoying the holiday season. We went to Pocatello to Blair's sisters house for Thanksgiving. We enjoyed spending some time with Blair's family. I recently got back from a weekend getaway to SlC with my mother, sister-in-law, Aunt, and some cousins. We've started a tradition where just us girls (no kids allowed) go to Utah for some fun shopping, eating, and just a good ole time! We had a lot of fun this year and rented a suite with enough room to sleep all of us. We thought next year it would be fun to go down during October when Gardner village has their Witches night. We hear it's a lot of fun so we think we'll check it out. It was the first time I had been away from the twins for more than a day so that was different. Blair's such a good dad to stay home all weekend watching 9 month old twins. What a man! Well I hope everyone's having a fun and safe holiday season. Merry Christmas!

Halloween Pictures!

Well Halloween is probably one of my favorite holidays. Even though I don't get dressed up usually for it I just love the whole fun atmosphere of the holiday. So I couldn't resist and I took the kids to kiddie kandids and had their pictures taken in their Halloween costumes. They're only little once, right?!





Just in case you were wondering Cassidy is a bunny and Statton is a frog. I really had a hard time finding a cute costume for Statton so I was glad when I ran across this frog costume online. Cassidy's was a no brainer.







I thought the pictures turned out pretty cute and I'm glad I did that with them. Statton did great and smiled for the ladies but Cassidy has been a little unsure about strangers lately so she got pretty teared up during the pictures. The ladies were nice enough and photo shopped out some of her tears for me. Well Happy Halloween to everybody.

October Update

I haven't put a post out for quite awhile. So I thought I would do just a quick little update on our little family. The twins had eye doctor appointments down in Ogden the first part of the month. They both checked out fine, no lazy eyes or cross eyes which I guess is common in premies. We'll take them back in a year for another checkup, they like to keep a close eye on them(no pun intented.) They put some drops in their eyes to dialate them and then we had to sit for 20 minutes for the drops to take effect. They both cried for just a minute when the drops were put in their eyes but then they were over it. Then we sort of celebrated Blair's birthday on Oct. 4. I had to work that weekend so we wouldn't be going out to dinner or having much of a birthday celebration. I figured he celebrated his birthday the day before by going to the BYU vs. Utah State football game. He went with my dad and brother a couple of uncles and cousins that all met in Logan that morning for a round of golf and a late night football game. They had a fun time. It's kind of becoming a yearly tradition. That's pretty much been the highlights of the month. We are so excited for Halloween. Cassidy is going to be a cute pink fluffy bunny and Statton is going to be a cute froggy.

How many babies can you spot?!

So we had the opportunity this last weekend to get a visit from my cousin Glenden and his wife Paty and their cute little twin girls. Paty and I were both pregnant with twins at the same time and due just one day apart. Well we know my story but Paty was able to carry hers almost all the way. What a woman! So our twins are a little over a month apart. Anyway so we tried our best to get some pictures of the two sets of twins together.

This was hard work trying to get all four kids to look up at the same time.

(Aubrey, Cassidy, Statton, Naomi)


What a good little boy to put up with all these women.
These were probably some of the best pictures I was able to get. Paty and Glenden we'll have to do that again when the kids get a bit older. It'll be fun to watch them grow together throughout the years.

Cousins Are Here

Well it's certainly been a fun few weeks. My sister Sarah flew in from Missourri to spend some time with her family before she starts nursing school. My brother and his wife and their kids flew in from Maryland to spend a week. So we've had most of the whole family together.(Sarah's husband couldn't make it.) So we decided since we were all together we would get a few quick shots of all our kids together. So we went to Kiddie Kandids and took some pictures of all the cousins together. After that I did a few quick shots of Statton and Cassidy since they are about 6 months old now. We had just gone to the Temple open house that morning so we had some tired and hungry kids. All in all the pictures turned out pretty cute considering what we had to work with. Those girls at the photo place I'm sure don't get paid enough to do their job.
