Smile

Ben

                                                                                        We have smiles!

Sam

 Ruthie had her OWN play date.  This is her friend Jay.   She loves Jay.  Ruth is also officially potty trained!  It has been about a week.  She only wants to wear pink panties and still requests candy for going number 2 in the potty.  She is VERY excited about her birthday coming up.   

9 weeks

 

Still waiting for a smile.  What beautiful boys they are.  

 


 This little lady is the biggest helper!  She looks so grown up to me.  Whenever Eden holds one of the twins she saids, "look at the parrot on my shoulder". 

Ruthie toothy is growing up too.  Still not potty trained and almost three.  She is half way there.  She will wear panties and go potty in the toilet, ONLY when I go in the bathroom with her, shut the door and sit on the tub ledge.  During the day this works out but when things get crazy with the twins, dinner time, homework, etc.  She refused to go potty by herself.  So, we aren't quite there yet.  This little lady wishes she was still the baby.  I think all my children would love to be an only child...well, maybe not David.  He likes the company.      

                                                                              I adore my children.

Blessing weekend

 On Sunday, September 2, 2012 Paul gave the boys a name and blessing.  Ben was quiet through out the prayer.  Sam cried the whole time. It's a good thing Paul had a tape recorder in his pocket because I missed both blessings.  Between Sam crying, Ruthie in the isle, David trying to run on the stage and Eden worried about finding all the crayons it wasn't exactly a  spiritual moment for me.  Paul did a great job though.  Aunt Alyssa sent their adorable onsies.

 We did have family in town!!! My brother Tyler stayed with us this weekend on his way home to Utah.  It was so nice to have him here.  The kids loved having an uncle around.

 Late on Sunday, I realized I hadn't taken a picture of the boys.  I attempted a few....the flash makes their eyes crazy.

                                                Then it became comical because their faces were hilarious.

                                  

We also were blessed to see more family.  We went and visited Grandma Dorothy.  She loved on the twins the whole time!  It was a touching visit.  We love Grandma Dorothy.
