Why Must Getting a Good Picture be So Tough??

This is what I get...Noah letting me know he doesn't want to hold Elliott while she is crying...Cameron only sitting for 1 second and not looking at the camera...and I do swear that Elli is always crying when I try to get a photo. I just haven't figured out the picture taking with 3 kids yet. But...I did manage to get this cute patoot to smile for the camera!! FINALLY! Isn't she just a doll!!!

Merry Christmas

We hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas..I know that we did! We have enjoyed lots of family time, way too much yummy food, and remembering the real reason of why we celebrate the season. We are grateful for our Savior and His selfless life and hope to be more like him throughout this new year.

Merry Christmas.

8 Weeks Later...

She is getting too big way too fast. I go back to work in 2 days and am not happy one bit about it! I have loved being home all day with my kiddos and have loved every minute of it!! Here are a few pictures of my changing baby girl!! (Plus a couple bonus features of my cute boys!)

This Time of Year...

I am thankful for my 3 beautiful children, a wonderful husband, an awesome family, great friends, a warm home, health, the Gospel, and this time of year! Happy Holidays!

Blessing Day...

Today we blessed my beautiful baby girl! What a special day!

We had lots of family and loved ones who were able to come and share this wonderful day with us.

Ben gave Elliott a beautiful blessing. We are so lucky to have her in our family. We are so lucky to have the Gospel in our lives.

My kiddos were able to love on and get loves from Grandma Sink...we love her so so much!! We were so happy she and Sis were able to be here from St. George!

I know..there are a lot of pictures of me in this post. We didn't get many of just my little angel...doesn't she just look so sweet!!!

So much fun dressing up a girl! I am lovin it!!

Beautiful Baby!

Last week my good friend took Elliott's pictures. Here are 2...but stay tuned..there are more! (I just have to go pick them out!!) Evette does such a great job. Love her!!

Isn't my baby beautiful(okay..I may be biased!)

What We Did on Halloween...

We Turned into a Tiger and a Transformer....

We Sang Cute Halloween Songs with our Preschool Class...

We Carved an Awesome Pumpkin With Dad...

We Dressed Up and Went to Visit Grandma and Grandpa Smith and Cousins...

Went Trick or Treating with the Johnson Cousins and came home with a Whole Lotta Loot!!!

Boy Whata Holiday!!!

Two Weeks Already...

So, it has already been 2 weeks with this new little addition. I feel as though we are adjusting well...so far! My boys have been great. A few little sleeping quirks and Cam is a crazy 1.5 year old...but other than that they are loving their little sister. Mom needs advice on how to keep the house cleaned so if anyone can tell me how to do that with 3 kids...please any advise will be appreciated!

Happy Halloween!!

SHE'S HERE!!! And Man is she cute!!!

Our little girl is finally here! 11 days early...the little angel! She is such a sweet baby and her brothers, along with her mom and dad, love her to pieces. I am still getting used to the fact that we have a baby girl!!

Cabin Time with the Smith Family

A couple of weeks ago we were able to go up to the Johnson cabin with my fam.(excluding quite a few...we missed all of you guys!) Anyway, we had a great time with those who were able to be there!! There was a lot of 4wheelin goin on and a lot of Prison Break. It was nice to be up in the quiet mountains without one thing needing to be done!! Thanks you guys for coming up and making it a great weekend!!

I Just Can't Get Over....

These dang smiles!! Don't you just want to eat them up???

Shower for Elliott!!

My great friends Heather and April threw me a baby shower for our little girl! We had such a good time and Elliott was spoiled...that is for sure! I wasn't sure about the shower to begin with but I am glad that Heather didn't really give me a choice! Thanks girls..I love you! And thanks Evette, Stacy, Kristen, Sherri, Andria, Andrea, Amanda, Christy, Bev, Les, Heidi and Amy for coming you guys are great!! I am blessed to have you as friends! Here are some pics of our fun night!

Now that Summer is Over...

I guess I should blog about what we did!! We had one of those summers that kind of flew by. Lots of family visits, lots of babies, lots of mom feeling lazy and huge..you know..the normal summer stuff!!

Our summer started out with my brother Chris getting married! We love Olivia and are so happy that she is a part of our family. (Shelbs sis in law did their pics and did an awesome job!!)

Because of the wedding Ricci, Jim and the kids were able to come and stay for a while. Noah loved having his cousins at the house to play with 24/7...took him a while to adjust to them being gone..boy was he bored!

I am totally stealing these pictures from other blogs...thanks guys for doing the leg work for me! (kind of explains the bug pics in the above collage!!)

Erin and Amy blessed their cute little ones this summer..dad's both did a great job! Erin and the kiddos stayed for a week and we were able to go to the Treehouse Musume and the Zoo while she was here. Aimee and her kiddos with Hanah in toe were able to join us on our fun Treehouse day. The kids loved it and could have stayed forever!! Cameron loved that he could touch and play with everything in site..mom's only worry was keeping him in view!!

After everyone left and things calmed down...we did a lot of this....

PHEWWW...what a summer!!!

Fun Pictures

My friend Evette is starting a new photography business and asked if she could do some pictures of me and my boys. I wasn't sure about it at first because of HOW big and prego I am....but we had such a good time and she did an AWESOME job!! Here is a sample.(if you need a good photographer give me a call and I can get you some info!!)
