I am still here...
Emree love riding around with Chas on his bike, and no she doesn't have a helmet on! it was just down the road!
Here is Brady riding his bike we would ride it 24/7 if I let him, and he loves showing off his tricks!
Brookie's tricks too!
I love this picture! Can you tell Emree loves her dad!?
I found the kids like this one nigh when they were supposed to be sleeping in bed. Brady snuck into Brooke's room and they were reading stories with her lamp on. At least I know they do get along sometimes!We are still alive and doing well. I just haven't posted for a long time. I have been busy trying to get some quiet books finished that I started a long, long time ago!! but now I am finished and swear I will NEVER attempt that project again! Although they did turn out cute. And I have been digging out my flower bed in the front yard. Our soil is so rocky here it makes it hard going, plus after I dig it out I have to sift out all of the rocks and then put it back in! Talk about lots of work! But I would rather work outside than do about anything, so it's been fun! Plus if I shovel all day that means I don't have to go to the gym that day!! YEAH! Some exciting things have been happening here too. I am finally done nursing Emree!! night and all. She is doing good, its been about two weeks now! Also as of this morning I have officially lost 20 pounds since having Emree, (only took me 15 stinking months!) but now I am back down to where I was when I got married. I would love to still lose like another 10, but I think that is wishful thinking! Anyway so I am proud about that! We are still anxiously awaiting spring, as it snowed a couple of inches yesterday! Anyway this is short and sweet!

Quilting!
Brooklyn was a big help, she even tied some knots herself!
Glamour shot!Easter weekend when all of my sisters were here (except for one, we missed you Kayla) we made a quilt for the oldest one (after me of course.) She is getting married in May and wanted to make a quilt for their bed. It turned out really cute and we had so much fun!
Random things happening around here





I have a new patio door!!! WOOOHOOO! I am so excited that I don't have to listen to the whining and pounding on the door until I can open it anymore! The kids can slide it open and slide it closed! SO NICE! I do have some pictures of it, I will post them tomorrow. Thanks to our home teacher and his brother (who conveniently happened to be contractors here) who came and helped Chas put it in. What would have been an all day project only took 2 hours. Thanks Glen and Scott! I love it. Also the weather has been so nice today, the kids have been outside most of the day. Brady is getting so good at riding his bike and can do tricks that I can't even do, ( not like I am so co-ordinated on a bike, but still) for only knowing how to ride for a month or so now, he is really good. Emree got her shots today which is never fun, but she handled it pretty well. I think she is going to have the same figure as Brooklyn (lucky girl) according to her growth chart so far anyway. She is only 20 1/2 pounds, but 31 inches tall. Tall and thin, man those genes sure didn't come from my side of the family! Good thing I married a tall guy, or my kids would be doomed to be 6 feet a-round and 6 feet tall. Brooklyn has her first loose tooth and is way excited, hoping it falls out at school! She is also getting good on the piano and can play "OLD MCDONALD" memorized and all. She loves it, I hope it stays that way! I loved piano! Anyway this is a long post. I put some random pictures of the kids in there sunday best. I curled Emree's hair not too sure if you can really tell, but it was so cute!

Brooklyn or Emree?
Just thought you all might like to see how much Brooklyn and Emree look alike, its kind of scary actually! Especially that Emree wears all the clothes that Brooklyn used to wear, I better make sure I get the right name to the right picture in the scrapbooks...well photo albums anyway. This is Brooklyn when she was 10 months old!
First day of School!
My Pride and Joy!
Next to my kids this is my pride and joy, I love working in the garden! Chas likes it too, he doesn't have to weed! Actually he always takes care of the kids while I spend time there. It's so nice!
Funny Story 1
Well I haveto share this funny story about Brooklyn. There is a little girl in our primary who got her appendix out shortly after she was baptized and showed Brooklyn her scar, so here is Brooklyn's conversation with me the other day.
Brooklyn: "Mom I don't think I want to get baptized."
Me: "Why not?"
Brook: "It's too scary."
And I'm thinking she loves the water, what is the problem?
Me: "Whats scary about it?"
Brook: "I don't want to go to the hospital and be cut open after I am baptized."
I started laughing!!! "You think everyone has to be cut open after they get baptized?"
Brook: yes, Jenny did and she even showed me her scar.
So I had to explain to her that that was not part of getting baptized, it just happened that it was close to the same time with Jenny. I thought it was so hilarious, you never know what your kids are actually thinking!!
What a handsome boy!
Achoo!
Emree right before a sneeze~
Something"s funny!
