Wes and Annie waiting patiently for their turn to sit on Santa's knee.

Our home

This is our foundation and basement walls to our new house!

hero's come in all sizes

Jonny is a super hero everyday. In case you hadn't noticed from the pic's.

Jonny is wearing his batman cape and Wesley is wrestling him down. Who is the super hero now ? :)

Happy Hour Fun!!!

On our way out of town to Idaho, we stopped by Sonic. The boys all got glasses. Aren't they all soooo cute?!

"Ya just wrestle alot and throw the ball and try to laugh when you want to scream"

Tonight I was on face book writing back and forth to a friend with all girls who is expecting and wondering how she will handle a boy if that's what comes. She said she would just let me show her the ropes, to which I responded, " Wish I knew them, I'd be happy to show you if I only had a clue." Ya just wrestle a lot, and throw the ball, and try to laugh when you want to scream." Doesn't sound too complicated, right? I think it really might be that simple now that there asleep and I can think, but come tomorrow morning I might want to re think my simple conclusion and complicate things all over again:) If only I didn't have to clean my house too.
It really is a blessing to be a Mommy even with all the hard stuff. Someday I think I might be great at it, but for now I am just muddling along as I go trying to do the best I can.
These little people are what give me the desire and courage to keep on truckin. Can you blame me?

I can hardly believe that nearly 3 months have passed since our little Annie was born. She is so healthy and strong you would never ever suspect that she had such difficulty coming into this world.
I am so thankful for my sweet Nathan and our four precious angel children. We are so blessed, and yet I take for granted so often the fact that we are together in this amazing family unit that Heavenly Father devised. It is too easily over looked that the family unit is what makes our return to him possible and the journey one filled with so much joy.
I just love the article in last months Ensign by Russell M. Nelson. I think it's called "The Sanctity of Life" The family really should be central in all we do. Whether it be as a church, or as a nation. There is little wonder why the family is being so threatened every moment of every hour. The greatest joy I feel comes from moments with my family. I should show great appreciation and loyalty to something that is so precious to me. I should never allow myself to yell or be impatient with them. I mean really...what does it matter that my two year old likes to make rainbows with food coloring or any other thing that leaves a mark. Or that my little 5 yr old with Autism is honest about how he feels with anyone, at any time. Or that my 6 yr old is a little sassy and likes to tell tall tales occasionally. If I can give love and teach them patiently...won't all be well? I believe somehow in time it will be alright.
Well forgive my very personal, raw blog.
