We are still alive...

It has been so hard to find time to do much extra. With facebook I forget to blog and let other things take over my time. So, here is us in a nutshell for the past several months...

Nick and I are trying to survive parenthood. Sometimes we have our heads above water - so I guess that is a good thing. We have really enjoyed attending many of the BYU basketball games this season. We are also very excited to start watching the Minnesota Twins play baseball. We all were able to be in Idaho for Thanksgiving this year and got a family picture too.

Abby is still taking violin and getting quite good. She is in an accelerated program in school and still involved with the Lehi City Children's Choir. We moved Abby downstairs into a different room. It was fun to paint that and have her in her new, bigger bedroom.

Bryant was just recruited onto a super-league baseball team. We have yet to find out what that really means (besides the amount of money we will be missing from our pockets).

Tyler is LOVING kindergarten. He finally feels like he is a big kid along with the other two. He has 3 loose teeth right now and it looks like the timing will be just off for the famous "All I Want For Christmas is my Two Front Teeth" song to be a reality.

Grayce is as fiesty as ever. She always worries about taking care of Emma and Maggie. She and Emma started Sunbeams in church this year. They are growing so fast.

Emma is still our clingy, teary one. She is a girly-girl and loves to dress up, put on jewelry, and be "pretty." She and Grayce will start into preschool in the fall. Emma potty trained at the first of the year - very quickly. She is helping to get Grayce to be as consistent.

Maggie turned one in December. She is a talker, full of kisses, and just brings so much fun and happiness to our home. She has all of us wrapped around each and every one of her fingers. Maggie went through the RSV issues this past month and recovered fairly quickly!

Here are a few pictures:
