It's not Santa...It's SHANTA!

Shan was asked to be Santa for our ward Christmas party...he was a little hesitant at first but I think after awhile of thinking about it he got a little excited!

He did so good it was fun to see him as Santa.

Brooke refused to sit on Santa's lap she was too scared! But she loved the goody bag Santa gave out....its all over her face hahaAndie and her cute little friends

UPDATE!!

Oh my gosh! It has been SO long since I have posted anything! My computer crashed like 5 months ago and I haven't been able to do anything! But Shan's awesome cousin gave us a computer so now I can get back on the blogging wagon. So here's a little update on our lives. Andie is still going to preschool and absolutely loving it! It amazes me how much she is learning just from her little class..she blows me away. She just finished up her soccer season and was thrilled to be done. I had to bribe her to go to her last game by telling her that she never had to play soccer again haha, she is way too much of a girl for that sport. She spent most the time twirling her hair and brushing the grass off of her clothes. Brooklyn is the cutest thing ever! She is talking SO much and I am blown away everyday from things that she learns to say. She loves her baby sister and talks about her all the time! Charly is growing up right before our eyes, which makes me so sad, why do they have to grow up so fast? She's so sweet, she giggles and smiles so cute...still no rolling or crawling which is considered way late compared to Andie and Brooke, but that is totally fine with me!! There's a little update..nothing too exciting but I promise I will post pictures soon cause no one wants to read all this crap ha!

Brooke turned 2!!

Brooke turned 2 on the 12th and we had a little party for her over at her gramma and grampa Stilson's. We set up the big blow up waterslide that she loves SO much! I think she could play on that thing all day long.

Opening her gifst....I'm pretty sure Andie was more excited than Brooke.

SO cute!

I am so proud of my big/little girl. She is such a sweet girl and is already potty trained! YAY...thank goodness for small favors ;)

Andies first soccer game

So Andie had her first soccer game last week and as you can tell by the

pictures she absolutely hates it! I really thought she would like it but I am pretty sure she is too much of a princess. She complains that she gets too hot and sweaty and pretty much just stands on the field and twirls her hair!! I am in trouble...I know!! But it's still

extrememly entertaining to watch!

Brooke's turning 2!

My baby Brooke is turning 2!! I can't believe my baby girl is already 2! Brooke is the sweetest little girl, feisty, but sweet. here are my tope ten reason why I love my Brookie!

10. The way says Charly...cutest thing ever

9. Her big beautiful lips...most people would kill for them

8. Her kisses, they're so sweet.

7. The way she asks Andie if she's ok when she cries.

6. The concerned look she gets on her face when she has an owie.

5. She's such a good listener...most of the time ;)

4. She wants to help do everything.

3. She's SO independent and wants to prove that she doesn't

need anyone's help! And I admire that about her.

2. The way she sings to herself in bed at night in her sweet little voice.

1. She is SO full of life and love and I couldn't imagine my life without her!



I love you Brooke! Happy Birthday!

First day of Preschool!

So Andie had her first day of preschool this week and she LOVED it! She had such a blast and couldn't wait to go back, her teacher is so so sweet and Andie says that she is just lovely haha. It's kinda sad that she's already in preschool but its really nice as well, it gives me more one on one with the other princesses in the house :)

how cute is she?

Charly's Blessing

This last Sunday Shan was able to bless Charly. It's always such a great experience to do that I am so grateful that her daddy was able to give her a name and a blessing. She looked so beautiful. I made her blessing dress myself and I thought it turned out pretty cute. We kept it really small and simple this time, it was kind of nice that way, thanks to everyone who made it!
