March 2013

 One Sunday in March, the boys decided to make a "hair fixing shop".  They worked on my hair for a long time!  I love the second picture where Austin drew what their shop could do to fix someone's hair that is sticking up all over. :)


Love this sweet girl!


Austin's creation and Aubrey already looking up to her brother



Ethan getting ready all by himself without being asked.  What an obedient and responsible son he is!







My mom wanted to do something special for my Dad's 60th birthday.  She rented a cabin up in the Heber area.  It had snowed the night before, though, and it was a little scary getting up to this cabin because it was up some very snow-covered, steep, and slippery roads.  We attempted the first big snow-iced road in our Honda and immediately started to slide.  So we turned around and waited for my Dad and Danny (my brother-in-law) to come back and give us a ride up.  Besides the scary drive there and back, it was a fun little get-away!












Ethan's music/dance program at school

The boys wanted to try and hike the Y with me.  I was going with a friend who brought her son (who they are friends with....Ingrid and Billy).  She was 5 months pregnant though and decided to turn around because of early contractions and didn't want to risk it. I was hoping the boys would make it to the top, but they wanted to stop at turn 6.  I'm hoping they want to attempt it again in the fall!

In the meantime....

I have some catching up to do, but in the meantime enjoy this photo of Bryan. He is one sound sleeper. The boys decorated him with all sorts of toys and gadgets as quietly and softly as could be; he seriously had no idea they were doing it! It was real funny when he woke up and wondered what was all over him. hehehe

February in pictures..... (and a few words).

My amazing mother-in-law's birthday dinner for me!  

Austin's big cheek, hard to tell from this pic, but we think it happened at school.  (It's now the end of July so my memory isn't very good!)

Valentine's breakfast for my Valentine

Aubrey at 5 months!



Valentine's dinner for all my Valentines



Ethan's first cavity filling.  He was so anxious the dentist gave him some laughing gas to help calm him down!  He did great after that!

Playing with cousins after the dentist (Rohme and Rocco)


Sledding

During the boys Christmas break and between sicknesses, Bryan took them sledding a few times.  Here's one of his pics from that.....


Then when both my sisters were visiting a bunch of my family went sledding together.  Tara's kids came, but Matt and Tara were up visiting his parents and brother.

Gina and Kyle

Can't put my arms down!
