General Conference, Birthdays, Preschool...etc.

General Conference weekend is a personal favorite at my house. It's not only my favorite but it's quickly become a favorite of everyone. Now, these pictures DO NOT DO JUSTICE to how darling our pancakes turned out. My friend Emily told me to buy a ketchup/mustard squeeze bottle and then make shape pancakes. Well we did just that. My kids (and Jared) were in HEAVEN! When my family stopped by and saw the darling picture pancakes they were SHOCKED how cute they were. Jared made faces of our family...let's just say they were darling! The shapes on the griddle are a roller skate, tree and a rocket ship. These were children creations so just imagine the possibilities Jared made!

Snuggling up and enjoying conference!


I just have to document that he can finally help around the house! :)

A big 30th birthday celebration for Emily! I planned a little SURPRISE birthday lunch with some friends at PF Chang's. It was an AWESOME surprise.

Here's to the 30 year old birthday girl!!! Happy Birthday Em, we love you!!!

And yet, our little Jacob is blossoming in preschool. So last week if you remember he mastered his letters and sounds. Well, don't you worry this week he came home and said he earned is "Blending Badge!"

This is his first book that, YES he can read! As I sit and listen to him read and sound out new words I feel like he's pretending or someone is whispering in his ear. It really is darling!

Here is yet again, his little award! If anyone is in search of a fabulous preschool teacher, well lets just say she gets a ringing endorsement from me! WAY TO GO JAKE!!! It is really fun to have two kids needing reading time now. I feel this sudden lunge into a new life of responsibility, having to be MORE organized with my time, and spending equal time with both kids learning. Oh, the joys of now adding yet another little monkey into our family!
