Norco with Grandpa Jeff!

Even though my dad no longer is the City Manager of Norco, every once in a while we go out there to check out the animals. The kids really enjoyed themselves!

Well Jeffry really only liked them if you were standing far away from them.

And Hailee was pretty darn scared of them too!

But we still had a good time!

Love Hailee's face in this one! P.S. I think I need a new camera, these pictures are hard to see because they are so blurry! I'll just add that onto the list of things we need! It's getting pretty long and expensive!

Funny Girl!

Ok so this picture is from my little brothers wedding two months ago and has nothing to do with this post but is soooo cute so I had to put it up! I figured since I posted about my little Jeffers last time that I would do a little post about my Hailee Rae! This girl just gets cuter and cuter everyday and I cannot believe how big she is getting! I love it and hate it! I want her to stay my sweet little girl forever! But it really is such a joy to watch her grow up! Anways, on to my story.

Hailee is a very girlie girl and is basically scared of everything!! With that in mind I will share a little conversation Hailee and I had at church a few weeks ago.

We were sitting in Sacrament meeting when the speaker said something about the Holy Ghost.

• HAILEE: (with a very terrified look on her face) "Mommy I don't want to see the Holy Ghost!" (repeated several times)

• ME: (trying not to laugh) "Hailee you are not going to see the Holy Ghost, plus he is our friend and helps us choose the right." (I can tell I am not getting through to her)

• HAILEE:( drawing) "Mommy I will draw a picture of the Holy Ghost." (she draws a big blob)

• ME: ( still trying not to laugh): "Ok"

• HAILEE: (very serious) "Mommy the Holy Ghost has three eyes?"

• ME: (REALLY trying not to laugh) "No honey He has two eyes, like us."

• HAILEE: (still very serious) " I will give him three eyes."

So there you have it my three year old is TERRIFIED of the Holy Ghost!! I just hope she gets over it by the time she turns eight or we are in trouble! Got to love that girl!

BOYS!

So this is a common occurrance around the house these days........Jeffry seems to like making huge messes with things like chocolate chips, cheerios, rice crispy etc. They are really fun messes to clean up!! Put child locks on the doors you say, well for those of you who don't know we live with my parents right now because Scott opened up his own insurance agency. And my mom doesn't really want to put locks on her doors........so there you have it, this is what my days consist of! But isn't he soooooooooo cute!? it makes it ok!

What we've been up to!

I Know I am officially the WORST blogger EVER! But here are a few pictures of the kids and what they have been up to! I love the one above with Hailee's hair! Cracks me up!
Playing with cousins

Shooting hoops! ( he is obsessed!!)

Crafts and new costumes!

making messes and going to dance class!

Hailee was also a flower girl at my younger brothers wedding a couple of weeks ago and for the life of me I can not figure out how to get the pictures of her up here!! I am a little slow on computers!! When I figure it out I will put them up!

Update on the kids

My sister-in-law's sister-in-law (did you catch that?) took these really cute pictures of the kids. So I thought I would post them and catch you all up on what is going on with my crazy kids! I can't really get this thing to post the pictures the way I want just so you know!

Hailee turned three in October. She just started preschool today and had a great time! Hailee is a very girly girl! She loves all things princess and pink! She loves to have her nails painted and loves to paint anyone else nails that will let her. Hailee also attends a dance class twice a week and really likes it. Like I said she is a very girly girl! She makes us laugh everyday with her spunky goofy personality and really is a very sweet girl. Just the other day we were sitting together and she said to me: "Mommy I love you" and I said "I love you too Hailee". She then said: "Mommy..........I love you again!" It was very cute and made my day! I just hope that in ten years she will be saying the same thing!

Now On to Jeffry! Oh my wild man! He is a handful!! But I think he is sooo stinking cute, so all the choas he brings is ok! Jeffry just turned one in December, but has been walking since he was nine months old. He loves to play with any ball he can get his hands onto! He throws them all over the house. It is so funny becasue Hailee is such a girl and Jeffry is such a boy. The difference between the two is so funny! Jeffry can't say two much yet but he does say ball and mama, very cute. Scott calls him a big dumb jock! How sad huh? I always tell Jeffry he is smart though, so hopefully he listens to me! We are working on Jeffry sleeping through the night, which hopefully he will do consistenly soon! He really is just a little ball of energy but I love him and can't imagine life without him! p.s. I love his pumpkin teeth in that picture, they crack me up!

I feel so blessed to have such wonderful and beautiful children!

If Anyone is even looking anymore!!

Here are some family pictures that Brittany Dow took of us. I think they turned out really cute! We aren't the most camera friendly people, so I was pretty impressed that they turned out so good! Brittany is very talented! I didn't put up the ones we used for Christmas cards, we didn't want anyone getting sneak peek!

Such a bad Mommy!

So a couple weeks ago my mom and I gave Jeffry a piece of licorice and he loved it! Of course!
