Girls Best Friend

Back in September we got a dog, Mokie. He has been a really good dog. Easy to potty train, great with the girls, and just an overall mellow dog which is quite remarkable considering the poor thing gets picked up by his head, sat on, pulled by his tail and ears, dressed like a doll, and he has never even nipped at the girls. Well lately I think he is even cuter. Every night when we put Lexie to bed he goes and jumps up on to her bed and curls up right into her chest and sleeps there with her all night long. It is seriously like he is watching over her and protecting her. Mokie has definitely chosen Lex as his "person". It is so precious. Lexie loves her dog and he definitely loves her too!

25? Am I really??

I can't believe that I turned 25 today. I can't believe how fast the last 10 years of my life have gone. It seems like yesterday that Becky and I were sitting at the Bus stop thinking "Can you believe a year from today I'll be driving" It makes me sad to see how fast time is passing by. I can't believe how fast my kids are growing up. I guess I am just taking a second to reflect on how blessed I am. It is so weird to take Lexie to preschool and dance, because I swear it was not that long ago my mom was doing the same for me. I still sometimes feel like I am 19 years old doing all of this stuff! It is such a wonderful time in my life. I have so much to be grateful for!

Valentines Day...Cheer Competition

I know a lot of you out there especially the ladies love Valentines day. That is great. I on the other hand hate it. I don't know exactly why, maybe its because all of your favorite restaurants are ten times more crowded that night, or because the cost of roses goes up by $30, or because its a night where your husband is being forced to be extra nice and romantic. I think its a combination of it all. I guess I would rather my husband pick a random Tuesday night and make romantic plans and get me a gushy card and be extra sweet. I just think that would mean more to me than him doing it on a day that the calendar tells him he has to. So I guess either of us weren't too sad when I was out of town for the 14Th this year. I was up in Pocatello, ID at a cheer competition. I choreographed a routine for Preston High School this year and went up to there Regional comp. They did so well! They swept the whole competition taking first in all 3 categories. I am so proud of these girls and can't wait to go to Boise next month for state comp!

Let's sell our house!?!?

So the other night my mom was talking to Kasey and I and out of the blue we all started talking about selling our house, so what the heck! We are selling our house! So if anyone knows of anyone that is looking for a house let me know! It is listed on KSL and Owner.com Its a great little house and we have done a lot of updating to it. I think we want to go to Farmington/Centerville area so if anyone knows anyone selling a home around there let me know It is just under 2000 Sq ft. 4 bedrooms 3 bath.

Chaddy's Home!

My younger brother Chad just got home from his mission to Mexico! It was so exciting going to the airport to get him, we all had butterflies in our stomach. We saw him coming down the escalator and it was just a crazy moment. Filled with so many different emotions. It was so fun to watch him so my girls that he hasn't seen for so long and that obviously had changes so much over 6 months! We are so proud of him and so glad to have him home!

New Glasses

I can't believe it! We went to the doctor last week for our 6 month check ups for both of my girls, I was really hoping to hear that Kenzie's eyes had not changed and Lexie's eyes were getting better. Well, I didn't hear either of those two things. The Doctor told me that Lexie's eyes were unchanged and Kenzie now needs glasses! I never thought that I would have to worry about my kids vision. Mostly because Kasey and I both see 20/20. But then again they were both premature and that can be a cause of it. So now I have two of the cutest little girls ever in glasses! I know it is going to be a struggle to keep them on Kenz. She is a little more active than Lexie and still is not to the point were reasoning is real effective. Anyway she looks darling and we will do our best to not break them or lose them in this first week!

1st Dance Recital

Lex had her first dance recital for Christmas this year. It was so cute. Seeing how little she looked up on that big stage was so crazy. She did a darling dance to the song "I got the Chicken Pox for Christmas" and that is the only song I have heard around my house ever since. She looked so dang cute and did so good!

All Of these girls are her age, I sure hope she grows one day! She is so little!
