September Goodies

Since I got my new phone, and actually started up on Instagram, there has been a LOT of random picture taking!  So here's some goodies both from my phone, and also the good camera to help get you through.

I started selling Usborne Books (yahoo!) and I had my first start up party one night.  So Cole brought the kids outside and they were able to watch a movie on the tramp!  DREAMY!!!!!!

Not to worry that Stockton and Morgan almost have the same size of head!  So cute. 

Stockton is NOT loving baby food!  He won't eat anything but mama's milk!  Soooo, we are slowly working on getting him to like things. It's not very often that he eats it- but when we can get him to take a few bites, it's good for us.  He just seems quite content with just milk. :)

This is usually what happens.  STRAIGHT out of the mouth, on to the chinny chin chin.

Morgan likes to get in on the action.

This kid could live on the tramp! He's so cute.

No one can make cute Stockton laugh quite as fast as Payton can!  He loves to play peek-a-boo with his feet.  Notice Morgan in the background doing the same thing with her baby!  So cute.

One Sunday after church, everyone fell asleep so Lincoln and I played games for like 2 hours!  It was a blast.  He chose trouble, and he whooped me!  It's weird with him getting older and actually having to try at games and nintendo, and things like that. It's not going to be long before he's beating me at everything!  Sheesh!

Hello Kitty!

My Bald little Aggie

Brothers

Payton is in his gymnastics class, and Morgan can not WAIT until she gets to go!  Her face is plastered to the window watching very intently every week.  Soon baby girl...soon!

Mom- I REALLY want some fruit snacks and to watch a show...NOW!  PLEASE!  (Hey, at least there was a please in there!)

Could you not just EAT this baby?!  LOVE HIM!

Time Out for Women

I had the opportunity to go to Time Out for Women with a few of my friends, and it was lovely!  It was SUCH a nice break away from life and the world.  It was a great time to recharge my batteries and get some great words of advice from alot of wonderful speakers.  I have been having a really hard time lately being happy and upbeat and alright with my life. Don't get me wrong- I have a great life!  But it is SO busy!  Cole is really busy with work, and church and the kids are busy with school, sports and everything else- and it seems (I know every mother feels this way!) that I am letting myself slip a little bit- and that I don't get to do many of the things that I would like to.  So it was SO nice to get a way even if just for a few hours to recharge my batteries a bit.  I'm so grateful to Cole for watching the kids on Friday night!  We had our schedules a bit mixed up, and Cole had forgotten the time of his training with Elder Bednar on Saturday, so we got a babysitter for Saturday!  I took Stockton with me, which was just fine- because he is an angel baby!  He really was so great!  What a great baby.  Love that kid! 
      anyway....the speakers were all FABULOUS!  Friday night was great.  We had the opportunity to hear Sheri Dew speak and she is ALWAYS wonderful.  So inspiring and wonderful.  Jennie Oaks Baker also was the performer and she was PHENOMENAL!  I have never really listened to her music that much, but I thought that it was so beautiful. It was neat to hear and see her kind of double personality!  She was HILARIOUS when she was talking, but then switched into this professional maniac on the violin when she would perform.  It was so great.  Julie deAzavedo Hanks also talked, and it was so wonderful as well.  All of the performers/speakers were so great- both days!  On Saturday, we listened to- Oh, now I can't remember his name!- Brian something I think.  He's the man whose family (4 of them) were killed in a car accident by a drunk driver and forgave this young man, and how he has moved on with his life.  It was so awesome.  There were also a few others that spoke that I-regrettably- can't remember their names.  I do remember that the Our Best Bites girls spoke- and they were so hilarious and witty.  Also, Mercy River were the performers.  I have to admit, I don't love Mercy River usually, but they were so great at the conference.  It is always fun to hear peoples personal stories as they perform and things.  It was wonderful.  I am SOOOOO glad that I was able to go!  I was rejuvenated, and happy, and excited to get back to life, and my kids, and all my other responsibilities.  Yeah for Time Outs!

It was fun- the conference was at the Convention Center- so we had to take the pic of the big blue bear!  Until Next Year Time Out!  Yahoo!

Green Eggs and Waffles?

Cole has been gone ALOT lately with both work and with church stuff.  He has been traveling a bit with some work and we miss him terribly when he is gone.  So, one night, the kids and I decided that instead of fixing dinner, we would have Green Eggs and Waffles while we watched Dr. Seuss' Green Eggs and Ham!  The kids thought it was the BOMB.COM and we had a great time!  It was super cold that day too, so we had hot chocolate and the kids were in heaven!  Its really hard sometimes to be with the children all by myself.  I know that everyone as to do it sometimes-I really do- but it is still hard!  It's hard not to be able to have someone to tag-team with so that I can have a break!  Thankfully, this was a WONDERFUL night with the kids, and we had a great time.  They even got along with each other all night too!  Such a plus.  I love my babies!

We even got to eat in front of the T.V!  SCORE!

Sure doesn't look that appetizing does it?  Well- trust me, it was!

Sibling love

The whole gang!

I was trying to get them to all look at the t.v.  Fat chance of that!
