Cousin Sleepover

As soon as Cambree got out of school yesterday we made the trip up to North Ogden. My kids were pretty excited to go to a big sleepover at their Aunt Aimee's house.

Our lovely Miss Maddie is going on a mission to Brazil for the LDS Church in a few weeks! So we decided we needed one last party before she left. As you can imagine, there was lots of talking, playing, & eating.

For one of the activities all the girls drew names out of a hat and they had to do the makeup of the name they chose. My girls were in heaven doing the older girls makeup. It was pretty hilarious.
Today on our drive home Cambree said to me "Mom, I felt like a star last night. Everyone was taking pictures of Maddie because of how good I did her makeup. If you want I can do your makeup when you go out and you can pay me a quarter." She also went on to say she wanted to be a makeup artist when she grows up...I'm thinking she might need a bit more practice...she REALLY likes to cake on the blush. She's pretty dang cute.

Lincoln slept over as well and he did perfect sleeping in our pack n play. Happy as a lark when he woke up this morning!

And before we drove home we took the kids to the park. It was pretty cool. It had a zipline and everything! I'm loving this Spring weather!

We sure are blessed with such an amazing & loving family. Love them all!

10 Months

Mr. Lincoln is now 10 months old! I took him in for his 9 month check up last month and here are his stats!

He weighed 18.9 lbs- 25th%
30 inches tall-90th%

He talks a little...man of few words this guy. He says "mama", "dada" and "wha's tha?"

He still eats everything he can get his hands on. I gave him a bottle the other day, and as you can see he didn't quite know what to do with it!

He is still taking 2 naps a day and waking up multiple times a night. I really need to sleep train him, I just keep putting it off.
And Addie climbs in whenever she can!

He's a curious little guy and has figured out he can get into pretty much anything. And he can make a big mess within minutes. Always have to keep an eye out for him. The other day he climbed in our cupboard, got stuck and then fell out while I was cooking dinner. Busy boy!

He's still a mama's boy and clings to me like no other. I've recently just been using my baby carrier while I do things around the house, otherwise I can't get much done while he's awake. Love our Link!

Park Days!

We've had such beautiful weather lately that we've all been soaking it up! We've been to the park 3 times already and I love it! Spring is so close!

Bath collage

One day I got this idea to take pictures of my kids in the tub and then compile them into a multi-frame and hang it in our kids bathroom. It turned out pretty dang cute, I love how their pictures turned out! Here are some that I ended up putting in the frame. I also added a picture of Allie when she got her first bath. Love to see all my babies all bubbled up and loving the bath!

Midway Ice Castles

I've been wanting to go to the Ice castles for a while now and I was so excited to buy tickets to go see them. Now that we live in Heber, it was only a 10 minute drive for us. They had tunnels, caves and they even had slides. It was pretty amazing to see. It was a bit cold but totally worth it!

The girls LOVED it! Lincoln didn't care much until I put him down, then it was all tears.

The girls are already talking about going again next year. It was pretty beautiful, I would recommend going if you live nearby!
