April Update

What's New With Us?
Paige: Paige got a normal person bed. She upgraded from a crib to a bed! She's been doing fantastic with it. I feel like every month her vocabulary just explodes!
Jade: Because Paige got a new bed.... Jade got a nice crib instead of a pack n play. She's seriously the best baby. We can put her anywhere and she just entertains herself and is super happy.

General Conference, we move our mattress out to the family room all weekend and just watch. It's our fun little tradition.

Paige is big into back tickles right now.

He's the best dad. Crown and all ;)


She loves my mom's chip dip as much as I do. She skipped the chips and went straight to spoonfuls.

Grandpa pushing the grandkids.


The farm also got a new kid quad. Good thing Rayleigh is around to give rides ;)

This is Opie, my parents puppy. He's been around since I was in high school. He's not a big fan of kids but he was all about Paige this day.

Trying to drive it by herself.

When your grumpy baby falls asleep on you.

My friend gave Paige this tutu because she's OBSESSED with them!

Love my girls!

Teething = chewing on everything.

Oliver and Jade

Paige brushing Sophie's hair

First time rolling in Costco sitting up, instead of in her carseat.

We got a puppy. She was only around for 4 days. I used to be the biggest dog person... but with kids, I just can't do "puppy" so we just have our Bella now. Colton and I got her less than a month after getting married. 

We named her Winnie and Paige loved her!

Watched my nephews and niece. We braved the park with 5 kids. 

Paige's new bed!

Winnie

Sleepy baby at the splash pad with our friends

She loves water.



The first time she ever counted beyond 4 was to 8!!! super cute. She's at 10 right now.

We had our nephew Brycen sleep over. Way fun! He was a good sport to go to to the park with the girls and us.

He's so good with my girls!


They always look so peaceful sleeping

First time in the family high chair

Helping dad with push-ups

We are trying to teach her when we yell "freeze" that she should stop frozen. She gets confused sometimes that we mean she gets to watch Frozen, you know the movie, so it gets confusing at times.

Playing at the splash pad with cousin Oliver


Jade's first time in the Costco shopping cart sitting up.. Why can't all stores have their carts!? Anyways, this is how she rode the entire time. In a hug-choke hold.

Don't worry, she loved it!

Independent and sassy

On Sunday mornings I let the girls join me in bed in the morning while Colton's at meetings all morning

First swim of the year... 4/23


Her first swim, ever



The love each other


Laying out with her guy cousins

My parents' alpaca died :( super sad.


Following the leader

She is on the move! You can now find her under the couch ;)


One of my favorite pictures of the littles

Paige helps Colton work out by adding an extra 32lbs to his weights



Too cheap for a double stroller, just kidding. we have one. 

Took Bella to the dog park

Then played with the water table

and the hose

and then she slipped and fell while running...

Helping her great-grandma pick tomatoes.

Her middle name is Carlene after this grandma :)



Jade almost 8 months

You better believe she ate at entire In-N-Out burger
