March!

We had play date with Katie and Darcie, the kids

had a ball playing together. The little girl in the middle is

a girl I babysit.

We bought a tramp. and the girls have got good use of it.

couldn't wait for the net to jump

They love having cousins over to jump with them

Getting the flower's already for the spring/summer

March 26th was Emma's Birthday, She turned 2 along with her cousin Reagon that turned 2 a couple weeks before Emma. This was a little family get together,that was the Saturday before Emma's Birthday. If you can't tell its Dora and boot's on top of the cake. These two girls favorite.

This is the puppy (Roxy) that Grandpa and Grandma brought the day of the birthday get together.

Emma's actually birthday, looking out the window it looks like night but it was in the morning just that early

She loves her Elmo

Later that day blowing out the candles and .......

Making a mess

that day it rained all day and was kinda bummer for her. So that night we meet up with Darcie and Brad and girls, to go bowling and out to eat at Steak N Shake...

We had a cute picture of her bowling but it wont download :(

Just a cute picture from the month

Finally Feb.

This is the last and biggest storm of the season. It was something like 2 feet. We NEVER see snow like this CRAZY!

To show how much snow we got

Daddy took girls out to enjoy the snow while I was recovering

Saturday it started to melt so we found this hill and went sledding

When we got home from sledding, Pagelynn helped daddy make a snowman (elmo one) while Emma and I went to lay down.

We made snow ice cream... i thought it would be NASTY but it was good and the girls loved it..

This storm hit around Trent's Birthday on the 2nd, the day my mom went back home to reality.Poor Trent had the crappiest Birthday. Since I wasn't planing on being laid up I didn't get out shopping for his birthday.So we had browine's with candles on them because that's all we had at home. No Presents no balloons NOTHING. Poor guy. Just so you know weeks later I did go shopping and we did have a real cake and party.

The girls wanted to sleep together one night so we let them, Months later they still are sleeping together.

Winter was hard for Emma because she wouldn't keep her socks on,we would find them in the crazies places.. like example her mouth or Elmo's ha ha ha silly girl

Snow Angels

Cute clips from the month

the girls dancing with the super bowl... i had another clip but it says it cant download

one of emma's 1st time saying her pray

New hobby

2011-03-30T14:14:00.008-05:00

I could write about what we did in Jan- March but I'll save that for later..

Our new hobby is getting a pet.(If that's a hobby?) We got this dog off of freecycle

we were told it was a jack/rat so we thought sure for free we will go get it. So off we went to get this dog and we ended up in this dump of a place. They were really nice people though I felt bad for them. So I couldn't say no "surprise" huh? When picking up the puppy I didn't want the girls out of the car because I was affraid Pagelynn might say something about there house being nasty. So we stayed in the car and made Trent do the dirty work. If you know Trent thats funny huh? He went to the door and brought the puppy out to us. The kids followed with the puppy.One of the boys told me their dad has a Pitt bull and it killed the other dog. So here we are taking this puppy home that the girls love,not knowing what kind of breed it is. Two weeks later we gave the puppy away to someone looking for a dog. The thing was cute to look at and the girls loved it besides the part of it knocking them down. It was soooo strong we couldn't help to think it had pit bull in it, after what the kid told me and pictures online.

So long pit bull dog you wont be missed but we have pictures of you.

See my girls just love small dogs.. as much as Trent hates them I just gotta let them have one.

Now we have a miniature Australian Shepherd mixed with a Pomeranian puppy named Roxy

my parents got it from someone form their church for free and gave it to the girls. Shes a sweet puppy but is stuck in the kitchen til it is potty trained... i tell you what im not good at potty training it.I think i might stick Emma in there with the dog and every hour kick them out to potty do it all at once right? You will have to come back later and see the pictures more pictures of the puppy

Way Back in Jan.

So way back in January this is what we did

We had one of 2 snow storms in the middle of January. Probably like 4 inches.. i dont really remember. The girls loved it since we were out in Utah for Christmas so they were use to it.

Emma in acting(throwing a snowball at mommy) Snow angels

Aren't we just cute!

At the end of the month we went down to my brother's house to have a birthday party for his little girl that was turning 2 (1 of the 5 thats going to be turning 2 in the next couple of months) ,then after we went to the circus with them. The girls never been so this was new to them. We had great seats in the front row. Emma got a little board but nothing new for Emma, Thankfully we were sitting next to the stairs and she kept entertained bye going up and down them. Pagelynn of course LOVED it. They got to ride an Elephant which shocked the heck out of me because we have been trying at all kinds of places to get Pagelynn to ride the ponies. So ya, they rode the Elephant with my brother and girls.

The girls waiting for it to start

Pagelynn Laughing her head off

Cotton Candy was a must

I didn't get good pictures of the acts because my camera sucked and they came out all dark

Oh ya, the VERY last day of Jan. is when I got my appendix out which was talked about in previous post. Yuck! not the way I want to start a new year and end the month. Thankfully for modern medicine though, RIGHT?

Darn

2011-02-15T22:32:00.003-06:00

Wow! I have already broke my promise to blog every other week... No surprise! I like to blame my random trip to the ER.. A few Sunday's I was in major pain and throwing up every movement and everything I ate or drank. Silly me just thought I had a BAD flu. Trent and Girls went to church with his parent's who were coming to celebrate Trent's birthday with him. After church Trent came in to check on me and I was pretty lifeless. He asked me how I was doing and I said, "about ready to die." I asked him for a blessing and his dad came in to help with that. When his dad came in he said "I don't think it's the flu I think she has something else," He said that I think she has a appendicitis. Few minutes pasted bye and I told Trent," I think I need to see a Dr. "so off the ER we went. While laying for and hour in the ER waiting room curled up on a chair and throwing up they finally wheeled me in, put me on a bed in the hall til a room was available. While laying in the hall the one person that hates needles the most always gets the worst people to start ivy's on. The dude was doing such a bad job that it was making Trent even nauseous from the dude as Trent said "driving around with the needle in my arm trying to find the vain, then blood spraying out because he didn't seem to know what he was doing. Oh all this after trying on the other arm first.

After an x-ray and C-scan they came back and told me yeap it was my appendix. Around 9:30 that night out came my appendix and spent the night and left around12ish on Monday.

Thanks to a wonderful in-law that live two hours away to spend the day with the kids til 9 ish at night, also thanks to my wonderful mom to run down before I went into surgery ,than to stay like 3 days with me taking care of the girls and house hold.

Than a shout out to my sister Katie to come and staying 2 days playing with the girls,making dinner and just chatting with me. Today I'm still a tad bit tender and so grateful that I got it taken care of when I did because the doctors exact words with a little laugh "your appendix was GROSS it just popped right out of your stomach."

Christmas Vacation

2011-01-13T21:05:00.006-06:00

So I have tons I mean TONS of blogging to catch up on, I don't know where to start to I thought I would just do Christmas vacation and get that out of the way.. Oh ya! I want a Dear friend Nancy to know that my goal this year is to make a post at less every other week. So Nancy you better hold me to it so you can see pictures of my girls :)

For Christmas this year we made the decision to spend some of our savings to go out to Utah, do to Trent's mom's comment the 1st of Nov. asking us to Please try to go out because she wants all the family to be together and get a family picture with all of us with hasn't happened. So heres the awesome family picture that she was dying to have.. :) ha ha ha really professional huh? we had my camera with Trent's uncle standing outside the front door to get the shot.. So it's the wonderful memories that we made not the looks. :)

We spent about 8 days in Utah and had a BLAST but didn't feel like we did all that we wanted to do..So this was a surprised to the whole family that we drove out there to see them. To make the story shorter. Trent's parents left the same day we ended up getting there faster. Since we were there earlier we showed up to T rents' sister's house and surprised them. It was fun to surprise them even though we are still trying to figure out what the looks on there faces meant. :) (Oh crap more people to feed and entertain) They were nice enough to take us in and let us stay with them. Which we love staying there is a PARTY house for sure.

The 1st day we spent there Pagelynn just HAD to play in the snow so I sucked it up and took her out there along with Emma. We jumped around, built a snowman and throw snow balls. I love having kids because it gives me all the more reason to act like one 2 :)

The start of our snowman... I love how all of our snow playing was when it was getting dark or dark.. you will see...

Then we showed up to Trent's aunts house for Back to Bethlehem(family tradition of eating on the ground while eating with our hands ) and surprised mostly Trent's Parent's and rest of family. It was great!

The next day was Christmas Eve The girls Played in the snow with dad this time and made our snow man more detailed...Then we had fondue at Jeni's house with all the Family. Had some music entertainment and then just hung out. We opened out Christmas PJs Then due to Trent's brother Steve persuade His parent's and Sister to bring all their Christmas over to Jeni's house. So at 1AM Santa came and dropped all the presents.

If you can't tell Trent made arms and we used M&Ms for the face and after the kids and I went in Trent stayed out to make a hat and more details.

I had to take a picture of the beautiful table,this is one of the 2 tables of food. YUMMY!

The girls enjoying the dipped food in chocolate:) (pagelynn, emma and Hallie)

My girls don't like boys/men for some reason they just didn't want to warm up to Bob Trent's brother. He was trying everything so he gave them their Christmas Presents to see if that would work. So here they are with Bob and Trent's dad with their head bands on that his wife makes ( check out her website thechicshoppe.org)

Christmas Eve PJ's Emma's are Dora and Pagelynn's are Princesses No surprise!

After Santa dropped his presents this is what we saw PILES AND PILES of presents!!!

Christmas day was a blast this year, I think I say that every year. Emma and Pagelynn were so into it. Santa spoiled them tons and had to carry it all the way from Missouri his car.

Gathering on the stair's waiting for everyone to see what Santa brought

Pagelynn with one of her favorite toys (tangled Barbie)

Another favorite

Emma's 2 favorite toys (Elmo, Cozy coupe) That Elmo is freaky it always appears in weird spots thanks to Emma

The rest of our stay there we spent alot of time in the snow,we went swimming at Trent's uncles' house, The temple AKA: Princess castle.

We had to go up in the canyon a little bit to find a place to sled.. yes i know dark again

SWIMMING

Pagelynn wasn't feel the greatest but we went up to Salt Lake to visit some of Trent's friends. We went to the temple to see the lights, Pagelynn was so mad because she called the Temple a princess castle and she wanted to go inside and see all the princesses. I think she was thinking of Disneyland.

We got Trent's sister to watch the girl's while Trent, Trent's brother and Nephew and I went out to go snowboarding, something I have never done and wasn't excited to leave the girls and go. The place we were going to go to was closed for the day due to a power outage. So we went and found our own mountain and it was a blasted.

ha ha ha My hat is on weird and no one told me.I had to prove that I really went snowboarding. Yes, I know dark again

Our trip was filled with game playing, knext playing which turned into I can do better than you and alot of laughing at each other doing it,and sick girls. Pagelynn had broncities the day we left so she was on meds, Better for about 4 days we were there then she got the flu/cold thing that was going around. Then Emma got it about 2 days before we left. Besides the fact that I suck at snowboarding and the girls got sick we had a BLAST and didn't want to leave. So this is a SHORT story of Christmas Vacation.

I couldn't get Pagelynn do do a normal face

Emma

2010-11-04T15:54:00.004-05:00

Oh Emma!!!!

Emma is so fun to have around but since we don't know what it's like to have a little boy around we kinda think it will be alot like Emma. This girls can make a mess out of anything.

She has learned alot of words too many I can't even remember them all. She finally is getting her 7th tooth. She love to play with Pagelynn til Pagelynn has something that she wants then its bitting and pulling of the hair. Poor Pagelynn has been getting some good bruises. It breaks Pagelynns heart that sister will be so many to her .

October

2010-11-03T14:34:00.009-05:00

Oh What Happen to October ??I can't believe its November already. Maybe it has to do with the weather being to nice. Welp, this is our life in October

We went to craft fairs, then to Maple Leaf in my home town, Family pictures then the end of the month came and everything was CRAZY

Pagelynn at the craft fair. Family pictures we don't have yet so we will post later

The Friday before Halloween I had a miscarriage and was in horrible pain but I sucked it up and took Pagelynn 2 her Preschool Halloween Party were I got like one pictures. She and Emma hung on my leg the entire time because of 2 many people around. My kids just dont like alot of people. GRRR But we had a blast making a pumpkin,spider,ghost and going trick or treating around the house.

Painting her pumpkin at her Preschool party.. yes i had to sit on the chair next to her and hold Emma.. She about freaked out when I got off the chair to take the picture because I wasn't in reach.

Then that night we went to a REALLY fun pumpkin patch. Where we rode a cow train and went on a corn maze. Which Pagelynn took us through and we made it out without getting lost.

Pagelynn afraid that daddy wasn't going to get in....

Trying to take a picture of Emma on the train...

They also had a petting zoo, Emma loves animals and would jump on them and go for a ride. Pagelynn loves animals but not close.

Emma found this cob of corn at the start of the corn maze, she held on to it through the maze so she could give it to the cow at the petting zoo.

Pagelynn proud that she made it out of the maze

Finally, the cow (well the goat is the only thing we could give it 2) she was holding the cob for.

Then Saturday Morning I was also in horrible pain but I did what I could with tons of help from Trent, we finished his swiper costume and my boots which we started an hour before time to go so thats why it looks the way it does. We made chili then off 2 our Ward Trunk or Treat.The girls had a blast and wanted to do it again. Pagelynn did awesome at going around saying Trick or Treat while Emma just got her 1st piece and just wanted to carry it around and be done. :)

Yes, the Halloween costumes that r so funny.. Pagelynn wanted to be Dora for Halloween so we got her the Dora stuff and Emma was going to be boots... RIGHT! Emma saw that Pagelynn was dora and wanted the same thing. So we have Big dora and Little Dora. I made some hair for Emma to wear but as you can see she didn't like it. Since Emma wasn't boots Pagelynn wanted a boots so bad so I said I would be boots but thats leaving daddy out and we couldn't do that so daddy was swiper. I had good intentions to make better boots but with the miscarriage I couldn't pull it off.

better picture kinda

Craft they were doing at the Trunk or Treat

The 1st piece of candy Emma got and she wanted to eat it but not all of it.

1st is the bathroom....

Ok I didn't take before pictures.. Oh well!

Now:

the red rugs

knobs on drawers/doors

the mirror moved

Fun loving girls..

2010-09-03T09:44:00.005-05:00

It's been so fun lately around our house.The girls have a love hate relationship lately, I'm loving the cute things they do together and the laughing and they play so cute but on the other hand I'm SSSSOOOO tired of the screaming and hitting they do. Oh boy Emma is a mean one and her scream is so high it hurts your ears.

They love holding hands while walking around it's so cute til someone falls... (see later)

as you seen in previous post they love to hide in my kitchen cabinets,http://hallidaytimes.blogspot.com/2010/06/our-new-house.html then they love to play with the dishes.

Emma wants to grow up and be a big girl like Pagelynn so she try's to do whatever it is that Pagelynn's doing. Two months ago Emma came interested in going potty because Pagelynn was going.

So since then we have been we got the baby potty out and she goes on it when Pagelynn is on the big one and she usually does her business.. Oh how I love potty training, YUCK! I didn't think it would be this soon.

I watched my sisters girl Addison over night and Pagelynn and her were having a party. It was cute as the mom but not so fun for the sister (Pagelynn), Emma wanted to be apart of the sleep over/ party so bad that she went to get her own pillow and got in the tent with them, she layed on top of them so she could reach the popcorn.Addison and Pagelynn screamed at her and told me to get her out. So this was my solution for letting Emma be apart of them. My mom tells me it's like raising me. ha ha ha

The new thing the girls like to do is............ DISHES!!!!! Yea! they finally learned it's not so bad doing something around the house. Now if I could get them to pick up toys when the are done playing with them.

Ok the 1st time they did the dishes it was fun and cute..... Now I try to sneak at doing it or the dishes pile WAY up because I just want to hurry and get them done and put them away right. They ALWAYS hear me and come running and I let them do them anyways. It always ends up lookin like this....

Ok the pictures don't really show how they are just all thrown in there. Then they take the clean dishes and make them dirty again.... Oh how cute but more work then if I did it myself....Oh boy!

The Video of the girls dancing at the Tanger Outlet in Branson... It started out them holding hand(picture above) then they started dancing.. Don't you love our dog in the background barking???

Our House

Everyone has been asking to see pictures of our house. I thought no I don't want to put pictures up til its nice and how I want it... There is no decor. what so ever and there is TONS to be bought :) Anyways I thought it's going to be awhile til we buy things for the house and I decorate. So here it is starting that the Front of the house

At the front door looking in

Left is a hallway to bedroom

Right is the living room and kitchen/dinning

Looking back at the Entrance

Needs MEGA decor. here

There's my Favorite rug.. I just got this rug, it doesn't look that great here but I love it.. We love to rub our feet on it, it's soooo soft. When Emma's mad or tired she'll lay on the rug and rub her arms and feet on it.

June

2010-07-13T09:53:00.011-05:00

June was also a fun filled month... Pagelynn turned 3 :( shes growing up way to fast :(

For her birthday we filled her room with balloons,she woke up like 5:00 AM laughing and Saying "Mom the balloons are sleeping next to me" Then she went to Chucky Cheese with her cousin Addison where they spent hours there and had a blast. Then for her Party that night we had plans to go to the Park with a couple of girls in her Nursey class and have Cake ice cream,presents and Pizza..Well the weather had something else in mind that day.. Since it started to rain an hour before her b-day we changed our plans to Chick Fil-a. Which we were happy with.

We blow up tons of balloons and put them all over Pagelynn's bed and floors, she woke up at 5:00 laughing saying Mommy the balloons slept on me. Then for the rest of the day Emma and her moved all the balloons from room to room..In fact I think Pagelynn packed 2 of the balloons to bring them to our new house. Those balloons lasted FOREVER

Chuk E Cheese with Addison riding the horse

Just picked out their toys that they got with tonkens

She wanted a Princess cake so this is as good as It got thanks for Trent's help

She had a cute little reaction every time she opened a present

One of the gifts we got her she loved was her Cinderella dress, Grandpa Halliday also got her a Cinderella dress but it was cuter so we took our's back and got her the Snow White dress.

We did LOTS of swimming.....One of the fun places that we went swimming to was in Rogers they have a Splash Park we spent the day there with my sisters Darice and Katie

Pagelynn didn't like it too much probably because she doesn't like water in her face. So she did a lot of watching

YEAH!!! we finally moved into our new house. The move was rough trying to get the things we need to get done on time to close on the 30th to get the 8,000 tax credit which we closed at 4:00 on the last day. Cutting it close don't ya think?On top of things Trent hurt his ribs and his back.... UUGGH

Which pictures of the house to come later because the house is STILL not in order

Also, in June the day before Fathers Day we went to Jolly Mill ,which is a park with a river, lots of trees and a play ground, which I will never in my life get on again there. They have these big tube slides that the kids were going down and so I took little Emma down on my lap.I had to lay down to go down . I was going down as if I had oil on my body or something and I was trying to stop myself with my arms and feet, getting burns on my elbow's. I wasn't slowing down so I kinda sat up and smacked my head on the top of the slide and then on the bottom like a bounce ball .. Just picture how funny I looked coming down the slide hitting my head like a bouce ball.. ha ha ha ha not so funny because I kinda blacked out for a bit. Some how I hit my back 2 so for the rest of the day My head and back hurt, oh ya and Trent, said that I wasnut ta kin rit.. But all in all Emma was safe on my lap the whole time.

Memorial day

2010-06-21T16:36:00.005-05:00

#3 Thing in May

For Memorial Day we went to the lake that is like 20 mins from our house. It was a last min. things so we took hot dogs and cooked them for lunch then we went swimming the girls loved it so almost once a week we have been going to the lake ever since. Pagelynn wants to go sleep at the lake,so we are looking at going camping once the house stuff is done.

The weather was great Emma loved to just sit and chili

Just had to put this on here

Emma eatting the salad cute and messy

After they were done swimming we found some sand to play in... then we had to stick them back in the water to get off all the sand.. We kinda did it backward but it was all fun. Emma hated the sand on her feet she would just put her feet in the air and wouldn't get in after me holding her feet in the sand she decided it wasn't bad and loved to play and eat the sand..

Our new house

2010-06-18T09:27:00.005-05:00

#2 Thing in May is that we have been picking out things for our new house just alittle nervous because we picked out this house fast to get the $8,000 tax credit but we have to close on June 30th.... Everything is done in the house we are just waiting on the paper work which we hear they are swamped because everyone getting their houses at the last min... So the is a chance our house wont close on the 30th and we wont get the tax credit and who know we might stick with the house because it was a hurry get it because we want the tax credit but in the end if we aren't going to get it anyways is this the house we really want....HUMMM

Anyways we love the house the location isn't the best... But a little about the house its in Centerton which we aren't excited about but its new and we picked out somethings, its 4 bedroom 3 bath... Here a couple pictures of it

Oh ya the girls LOVE the house.... for some reason they love to hide in here... that will change I hope when we move in..

The rest of my cute video's WILL NOT download....... so maybe later ...GGGRRR

What Happen in May:

1st

at the 1st part of May the girls and I went out to Utah to visit my Grandpa for his 60th birthday party alone with Grandma and all my Uncle's, Aunts and Cousins.... We also got to quickly stay with Ro and Jeni (Trent's sister and family) where there we got to see his brother's and sister's....

I know you are probably wonder how did I travel with a 2 year old and a 1 year old???? Well at times I thought to my self what in the world am I doing. Just put a STUPID stamp on my head... Well this is how it all worked out

I traveled up to the Tulsa airport with my sister Darcie where her husband helped us out of the car where we meet up with my parents at the airport..... From there a BIG thanks to my parents helping us get through security where I was really nervous trying to take 2 kids a backpack and stroller through oh ya and taking off shoes and jackets on three people.. I was pretty easy going because the airport was not that busy. Then from there we meet up with my sister Katie and her little boy and my brother and wife with their 2 kids.

Grandpa keeping the 3 little girls entertained while waiting for the plane..

Darcie and Reagan watching G&G White walking the 3 girls to the plane..

Now we are all on the plane with 8 adults,4 babies all 1 and 3 little girls suprisingly all sitting together making the people on the plane saying "wow there is a lot of babies on this plane," luckly on the 1st plane I sat across from a really nice buisness man. That tried to keep my wiggly, head banging loud child (emma) happy. So if you didn't get the point Emma was horrible she did the on the lap off the lap on off on off...the hitting her head against my chest the screaming... Then when we started to land in Denver she finally feel asleep. Pagelynn sat next to me and her cousin Addison and was very good. We had a lay over in Denver for an hour were we found something to eat and run around to get the wiggles out. Same story on our way to Salt Lake Emma wasn't good at all.

When we landed in Salt Lake we were greeted from Ro (Trent's sisters husband) Darcie and I went to their house and stayed the night wedesday and Thursday were we got lots of YUMMY food,hung out with family and went shopping. Pagelynn LOVED every min. of her cousins ...she still talks about jumping on the trampoline with Joey and Gage.:)

Pagelynn Jumping with cousins at Jeni's house

Bath at Jeni's

The girls loved to bath together... there wasn't much room to play

Pagelynn, Emma, Reagan and Addison

Thursday Darice and I with 4 kids loaded in Jeni's car and headed to Idaho to see our Grandparents.. We stayed with our Uncle Dirk and Aunt Pat. The girls Loved them sooooo very much and so did we.Oh ya I forgot to mention they lived on a farm and the girls loved that. We felt VERY comfortable there.

Saturday was my Grandpa's 80th Birthday party with all of my cousins that I haven't seen in years...It was a nice day with a nice slide show,good food, love ones around, family photos.

Pagelynn all dressed up for the party

Pagelynn with uncle Dirk that she loved very much.. She doesn't go to man very well but with uncle Dirk it was like no probably at all.

Pagelynn and Addison were heart broken that we went to Grandpa's Birthday party and he didn't blow out candles so Sunday after church we made Grandpa blow out his candles so that they can say they went to his Birthday Party.. Silly girls

Poor Grandpa and Grandma White just never got a break from the kids :)

We had a wonderful time and want to go back even though on the way home in the airport I'm still feeling very bad about loosing my patient with pagelynn :(

Emma's finally walking......mostly

2010-05-21T09:30:00.004-05:00

Emma started walking about 2 weeks ago...... Well the little stinker was walking pretty go from place to place and hold on to my HAND for like a couple of months. She would just scream sitting on the floor til I would go over and hold her hand so she could walk. You will see in the movies sorry they are out of order but thats the only way I could get them to load... Oh how I hate blogs but yet I love it...:)

This clip below is like in March when she was walking really good with her walker.

My Girls!

I thought I would post some cute photos of my girls... We have been really nice weather for almost a month now and my girls all they want to do is play outside. I don't mind that at all but I have to go out there with them. It would be nice to open the door and just let them out and have a fence they can't get out of or neighbors 2 trust.

Emma has been taking steps for a month now and Pagelynn loves to help her try and walk

I think this ended in a fall and Emma crying.

Pagelynn LOVES to dress up like everyday... in fact when we go to Wal-mart she has so silly lookin outfit on. Like yesterday she had brown and purple pot a dot pants with a purple shirt over that she had a bright green halloween tinker bell out fit.. ha ha shes funny...

This outfit is the 1st time she looked pretty cute.

Easter

2010-04-29T08:50:00.009-05:00

So I just noticed that I haven't put any Easter pictures up... That was like a month ago... GEEZZ

We had a great Easter the weather was nice the day before we went to my sister's house for a family Easter egg hunt/party. Thanks Katie for a wonderful time.

Pagelynn at our family Easter Egg Hunt

Pagelynn and I all done dying eggs..(gotta love how Pagelynn trys to pose)

Showing off her nice egg

Pagelynn posing with her egg or something UUggghhhh I hate that binky I'm so glad its gone.

Publish Post

Emma was so happy to have something of her own but not so happy that there want any candy like Pagelynn's....

I'm totally bummed because I didn't get a picture of them in their Easter dresses. Probably because our Sunday's I'm like a chicken with its head cut off and we are always late and bye them time we get home they are sleeping or a mess

Big 1

2010-04-04T15:56:00.006-05:00

The BIG 1

My little angel Emma Kay turned the big 1 on the 26th.. Poor girl didn't have the best birthday!
It started out great with fun at Jump Zone with my sister and her kids. Emma loved sitting on the side of the inflatable things and sliding off (in her mind a little slide) and going down the BIG slides with mommy and sister. Then after that it was such a beautiful day that we went to Sonic and then it went all down hill from there. She came home and napped then started this really runny green eye's and noses and just didn't look great at all. Then.....

Daddy got home and she opened her presents which she got this box thing with a bunch of little toy/games around it (above picture) and clothes.It's hard to get your 2nd kid something that the same sex as the 1st because they already have everything. :)

The most favorite part CAKE EATTING She didn't know what to do with it til I had her lick my finger then she was all for it, Big handfuls of cake, she even was sweet enough to get mommy big handfuls of cake to share.. Besides her green runny eyes and sister been cranky I think she had an ok birthday. Emma is a BIG joy in our lives we wish her the best and happiest life that she truly deserves...We love you tons Emma your a wonderful gift.

Silly Girls

2010-04-01T14:26:00.002-05:00

Please ignore my messy house... or please feel sorry for me because that's how messy my girls are... They take the cushions off and play on the couch. Emma's favorite thing is to try and walk across it and she likes that she can get off and on with out mommy's help. She's very independent

So this is Pagelynn's favorite game to play with Emma, when I was nursing Emma she thought it was the funniest to do this game when I was nursing Emma because she would laugh under the blakent...

ENJOY!

Winter

2010-03-11T21:19:00.000-06:00

The Spring is Finally here and I'm excited to get to do all the fun outdoor stuff with the kids. We did have a good winter this year we got lots of snow a few times and this is the 2nd to the last snow storm (out of 3) that we enjoyed.....

Pagelynn in the last storm we got

Snow Angels with Mommy

Emma slept and stayed inside because I didn't have any snow clothes for her.... Most of the time Trent went out and played with us but not when we made the snowman as you can tell... otherwise the snowman would be a lot more detail and rounder. ha ha ha... So when you have mommy help you get a ghetto snowman with the smile face that couldn't even last for a picture.. :)

Smart girl

2010-03-09T16:36:00.002-06:00

This Video was takin a couple of months ago... stupid blogger was having problems downloading it... So finally, here is a cute video of little Emma with one of Pagelynns princess seek and find books.. One day Emma was lookin at it with Pagelynn and I and I asked Pagelynn where the Raccoon was and Emma kept point back and forth to the matching Raccoon. I thought no way she just did it because Pagelynn did, so a few day later I showed it to her again and this is what she did... SMART GIRL

2010-02-15T15:09:00.003-06:00

Emma

2010-02-06T22:38:00.004-06:00

A little update on Emma

Emma is now 10 months old and I'm so sad to see how fast grown... I can't believe she's almost 1 :( I'm also sad because when Pagelynn was little and the only one around I was ALWAYS takin pictures or video's of what she has done..... but as you all know the 2nd one doesn't have as many pictures of video's. Anyways Emma is getting the little personality she loves to make her sister mad, do everything her sister does or at less try to do everything her sister does.

She loves to try and get in all the places shes not suppose to be in... Examples : under tables, on top of tables, under the crib between the couch and table.....

Shes so fast at getting the things Pagelynn has..... Pagelynn was watching a movie and had popcorn I got up to go the bathroom and came back to this mess... Yes, everything has to go on her head.

Pagelynn loves playing blocks, buildings, towers and houses are her favorite things to build .. Well no matter how far you put Emma she still comes right over to Pagelynn's tower and knocks it down.. so we will give Emma a tower of her own but its not good enough for her, we will give her a favorite toys sitll not good enough so we just contain her so she will let Pagelynn build a tower...
My girls watching a movie this is there true self's when the are tired.... Pagelynn blanket at nose... Emma finger and blanket in mouth...

This is just a few things to update ya on Emma.. We love having her as part as our family still tooth less (starting to worry a little about that) and hair less she so loving to her sister and pretty easy going and laid back for the most part...

Finally

2010-01-02T15:07:00.014-06:00

To wrap up the Holiday Season this is what we did......

1. Made Gingerbread houses and talked about the Savior

2. Put up the Christmas tree

3.Watched Christmas movies,Polar Express was Pagelynns Favorite, she was sooooo into it, that the part where they were going down the hill on the train she would lean with it and scream watch out..

4. Christmas party at G& G White's where we made gram cracker trains, switched names and gave each other presents and Santa came, which Pagelynn hated and Emma loved.

(she was so sour probably because she got laughed at for eatting the candy...when someone laughs at her for being cute she gets sooooo sour)

(Kailey had Pagelynn and gave her a tea set that she loves to play with)

At 1st Emma just looked at Santa and smiled for the longest time)

Candy Pagelynn got from Santa which she didn't even sit on his lap so I don't know why she got some )

All the kids wearing their pjs G&G White gave them

Comparing picture from last Christmas

5. Back to Bethlehem at G&G Halliday's house

This has always been fun,we ate on the floor and have fish,grapes,nuts,cheese, bread and i think thats it.... it was a little hard with Emma wanting to get at everything...

6. Christmas Eve we spent it alone at G&G Halliday's house because Pagelynn was sick and the rest of the Family went to family house. We had fun though we made cookies for Santa, sang songs,sat bye the fire, made a plate for Rudolph and Santa, Open up PJs, picked out a stocking and went to bed. (well for Pagelynn anyways)

Making cookies for Santa (cut and bake) ha ha... no Emma isn't really drinkin that pop plus I don't think there was anything in it.

Emma sitting next 2 her pjs that she got for Christmas Eve with her little toy she got..

Pagelynn in her Christmas Eve Tinker bell pjs with her toy she also got Tinker bell.... guess what pagelynn likes?????

7. Spent Christmas at G&G Halliday's house with Scott and Steve also there.

Emma grabbing everything that Pagelynn just opened... as soon as Pagelynn opened something she would dive for it even though she had something new of hers in her face....

Pagelynn was so hyper she did the funniest things

2009-12-07T14:49:00.001-06:00

I thought this one was funny and it went with my last post

Big Girl or NOT???

2009-12-07T13:58:00.002-06:00

BIG GIRL OR NOT???????????

(sorry picture a little blurry)
I can't decide if Pagelynn wants to be my big girl or if she wants to stay my baby forever? I thought that your oldest wants to grow up quick and not be the baby they want to be the boss.. Pagelynn she always keeps us wondering what shes doing to do next. When she was about 18 months she was all about the potty training(but mommy was 2 lazy) now its she doesn't to wear princess panties. She wants to stay in diapers because Emma is and if she goes potty on the toilet so does Emma, she thinks.... Sometimes she wants to be mommy's helper and do the dishes other times she wants to sit in Emmas High chair and eat like a baby... LOL shes funny never know with that girl! oh ya, and as I sitting here tying this she's in Emmas bed (crib) taking her nap.... OH Pagelynn

all dressed up

2009-11-02T15:11:00.007-06:00

The girls all dressed up before going trunk or treating. Pagelynn as a fairy AKA tinker bell, Emma fairy, Reagon a chick and Addison as Cinderella.

Pumpkins

2009-11-02T14:59:00.006-06:00

Hope everyone had a GREAT Halloween, This was Emma's 1st Halloween. She slept while we carved pumpkins and dressed up as a Fairy. We spent Halloween with my sister and her family. We carved pumpkins which Pagelynn didn't get into that much, which surprised me because last year she was covered from head to toe in pumpkin guts. She wanted to clean the outside of the pumpkin and then finally touched the guts that were inside a bowl and said look my "I did it." Oh yeah she craved a cat sitting on a tree on her pumpkin I didn't get a picture due to my camera dying :(

Finally touching the yuck stuff

Nauvoo

2009-09-23T17:08:00.003-05:00

Pagelynn and Hallie loved the place were they have little houses with dolls in them... Here they are at that place dressed as little pioneers riding off on their sheep

The girls loved driving around in the back of G&G's van, here they are holding Thieu dolls Grandma gave them

All of us on a wagon ride

Family living center the girls playing

We went to Nauvoo this past weekend with Trents parents,sister and her kids,we spent all day friday, saturday and most of sunday there. It was very enjoyable the weather was nice and i think we had the place to our selfs. Here are some of the highlights.

Sliver Dollar City

2009-09-16T13:59:00.003-05:00

For labor day we went to Sliver Dollar City with cousins, Pagelynn was so excided to finally be tall enough to ride some rides.

Brynn,Halli and Pagelynn all sharing one stroller.. lol

We have moved

2009-09-16T13:47:00.001-05:00

Ok for those that don't know we have moved to Ozark.. wait time out I wrote this along time about but it wouldn't post for some reason. So ya we moved to an apartment to manage out in Ozark we have been there for a month now.I hated to moved although I'm loving having our own place. Moving with kids is not my favorite thing, As you unpack the boxes and deciding if you want the stuff in the house or storage and repacking boxes they are right behind you unpacking the boxes you just packed.. AHH

2009-08-01T21:47:00.003-05:00

At the mall everytime I go someone always come up to me and say "your daughter is so cute and she has big eyes" " can we take pictures of her for free?" Trent was with me and I gave in... Shewas a like grump and we didn't buy any but they turned out cute.

Emmas daily job

2009-07-09T21:23:00.004-05:00

Lindy this post is for you

Emma has been having blow outs everyday (look what you have to look forward to lol :) ) but if you buy huggies or pampers which are more expensive you want have this problem. Someone gave me a bag of no name diapers and everyday I was having blow outs and poop isn't easy to clean out and ruins clothes sometimes, and if you look at the bottoms post close(you might have to click on it to make it bigger) when you take off the poopy clothes it gets all over thier heads. lol the joys of little ones. Huggies leak proof work wonders just a little side note

Lake

2009-07-07T22:13:00.004-05:00

This Thursday night Tren't parent's, grandparents,aunt,cousin, and brother we rented a lake house til the 4th. We had a blast the view was great, the water was way warm. We spent Friday sailing, floating for hours and late night campfire makin smores and watching fireworks. It was so relaxing and the weather was great.

Our view from the house

Grandma Rae and Karla watcin a movie after lunch
Campfire,oh ya the 1st night it was sooooo funny cuz we gave Pagelynn a smore and she got the marshmellow stuck to her lip, she was laughing so hard trying to lick it off. (i think you just had to be there to see how funny it was)
Floating for hours in the warm lake water

Nashville

2009-07-07T22:08:00.003-05:00

So we have been on the go for the last couple weekends on June 25th-27th we went to Nashville to pick up Trents brother Steven. I was really nervous on how Pagelynn would do, she was great she slept alot of the way there then it started to get dark and I thought she's really going to hate it once its dark(i didn't want to give her a chance to be bad ha ha), so we stopped to get her a portable DVD player and that was the best thing we did. Why we were in Nashville we went to the lake,the Grand Oprey Hotel and the mall oh ya and a park. After spending a day driving around seenin the sites and walkin around we thought we would do something fun for Pagelynn. So we waited an hour to eat at the Rain Forest restaurant. What a mistake that was. As we were walkin the animals were moving and Pagelynn caught eye of the Moneys oh boy was she scared. We sat down trying to make her feel better by telling her they aren't real and there were alot of kids there that weren't scared. She was ok for a little bit so we order chips and dip and drinks while Pagelynn sat there keeping her eyes on the monkeys with a freaked look on her face. Then all of sudden it started to do a fake storm and she just put her head in my chest and just freaked out. As we sat there talkin about how this isn't the best thing for her she hates it and we were trying to do something she would like.So I felt the restaurant while Trent and Steve paid for what we ordered so far. We left the restaurant spending 18.00 and ate in the food court at the mall. So about 8:30 we are finally ready to eat when Emma decided to scream and want to eat. So the mom I am I don't eat I go nurse her leaving my pizza to get cold. Then finally at 9 I get to eat when the mall lights are turning off to close up. Oh what a night, we spent about 30.00 on food that night.. man we could of had a really nice meal.lol oh well, What you do for your kids
Trent and Pagelynn outside of Rainforest Cafe waiting to be seated. Pagelynn is at a stage were she is subborn when we get the camera out to take pictures.

all of us at the Grand Old Oprey Hotel once again Pagelynn wouldn't look being stubborn

Happy biirthday

EMMA

I think Pagelynn and Emma are really close in looks. I have been lookin back at Pagelynns pictures when she was a baby, oh what fun I had. Tell me what you think about the 2 if they look alike or not??? I think Pagelynn is a week older than Emma.

Emmas blessing

2009-05-28T13:32:00.003-05:00

I'm a couple of weeks behind on my post

Emma was blessed on the 17th of May, It was a wonderful day spent with family. She shared her special day with Jadin my older sisters baby that was born a couple weeks after Emma.We went to the Willard ward where Jadin was born then over to my in-laws for lunch then off to Emmas blessing the weather was a little chili but nice. Oh yeah the 1st picture is a little flower brachelet that my sister in law made for Emmas blessing day.

My girls

2009-05-02T14:22:00.005-05:00

Wow it's been such a blessing to have my 2 girls and see them bond together. I love to watch them each day, Pagelynn has loved her little sister since we was born she always wants to lay next to her or hold her. It's cute when Pagelynn does something that i get really proud of her for like going poop in the pottyor a picture she colored etc. she has to have Emma look . I hope they are best friends as they get older. Here are just some pictures of them together.

Zoo

2009-04-27T22:06:00.003-05:00

We went to the Zoo this weekend with my brother Brevin and his family. We had a blast even though it was a little crowded because it was a free day. The temperature was just right and the girls had a blast.I think their Favorite part was the bear walkin around in its cage and the giraffes although Pagelynn kept wanting to see the fish, i dont know why she has one at home and its like they were that exciting.

Pagelynn at the petting zoo part with a goat.

Uncle Brevin pushed Pagelynn and Aspen in the wagon most of the time, at the end when we were leaving we had to go down a BIG hill in the parking lot, uncle Brevin took them down it 2 because they loved it so much. I treid to get a video of it but i didnt have space on my camera.:(

Pagelynn the little actor

2009-04-21T13:07:00.004-05:00

Pagelynn is either singing a song that she makes up or telling a story and why on the table. who knows?...she is sooo fun to watch when she goes off in her song/story telling.

Jaden and Emma

2009-04-18T14:18:00.002-05:00

My sister Katie had her baby last night and we went to visit her today. We thought it was funny that Emma was a little smaller than Jaden like a pound and a half smaller. She was born 3 weeks before him 2. They were soooo cute content laying together.

I found it

2009-04-13T14:06:00.002-05:00

Hope everyone had agreat Easter. We had a pretty good, fun Easter this year. Easter finally was fun with Pagelynn because she loved dying eggs though she was spilling like crazy (poor Trent wasnt a fan of that) and she could fine the eggs with not much help . Of course it was extra fun to have Emma with us this Easter although she just slept. The Easter bunny hid candy eggs inside because it was rainy and cold, he brought Pagelynn finger paints and a note pad so that she can "ite" (write) with is her new thing to do. Ill have to post a picture of her "ite" she does its very interesting. Oh ya she also got an Easter dress but I didn't get a picture of her in it because we were late and plus it was stake conference. So i'll take one next sunday and post a picture cuz she looked like a doll.

Kite flying

2009-04-13T13:30:00.003-05:00

Last weekend we went to my parents house, boy was it a windy day. So Trent the kite flier he is went and bought Pagelynn and Addison kites. Yes, the dads had to do something with their older girls cuz my sister and I just had babies and didnt care to have them in the widny. Grandpa (my dad) called for Darcie and I to go outside to see what our girls were up to. How cute were they sitting in little chairs holding up thier kites watching them fly in the air, with thier dads standing a side to throw the kites back in the air when they came down. Pagelynn was so funny she would hold her kite up and if it went down she would run over to me and say something who knows what then run back and sit there til daddy got it back up. I guess you had to be there to see how she was runnin to me and they way she was talkin. She has such a personallity with lots of emotions and facial expressions.

3 of 5 EMMA KAY

2009-03-27T11:15:00.006-05:00

My cute little family

We had Little Emma Kay yesterday at 5:27 PM , she weights 6lbs 1oz and 20 inches. Shes a little one but in good health. Here are some pictures of her, little Pagelynn is going to be a great big sister when all said and done. At the time she kinda was worried and scared because it was as soon as i had the baby and mommy had ivy and other things on her and emma was crying and still had white stuff on her. But then the next time she was all cleaned up and Pagelynn would kiss her.

Pagelynn's 1st look at Emma after i just had her. Poor little girl shes so worried of whats going on.

37 Weeks

2009-03-24T12:56:00.002-05:00

I Know, I Know cheesy huh? This me at 37 weeks. Well the 2 things I fear and hate the most are Needles and surgery. Well the chance of me having both of them right now is high. I went to the Dr. Today for my 38 week appointment and things are not lookin great for me. The baby is breached so the plan is that early Thursday im going in the hospital to see if the dr. can turn the baby and if they can't then I go in for a C-section if they can turn the baby (cross your fingers) then they are going to induce me. I really am praying that they baby will trun. But all in all I want whats best for the baby..

2009-03-18T21:27:00.008-05:00

I finally been able to get the baby stuff(cutting it close huh?) out of storage, the pack N play we got out for the baby to sleep in. While I was trying to organize all the stuff Pagelynn was behind me putting her baby in the swing,the pack N play etc. Next thing you know it Pagelynn climbs in to the case to the Pack N Play. Here is Trent sporting her around as his suitcase. LOL

Just to do some bragging about Pagelynn, it amazes me how much she learns. The other day Trents dad was in REALLY bad pain with a tooth/face ache and that night when we were helping Pagelynn say her prays we said "help grandpas face to feel better", well the next day not really knowing whats going on with grandpa. Pagelynn stop doing what she was doing like playing outside,with her toys and while she was walk some where she just randomly folded her arms and said bless grandpa amen. Sweet and very simple. That night Grandpa came home and had a little surgery done. How did she know that she would keep blessing that Grandpa be ok is amazing to me.

silly girl

2009-03-12T21:13:00.002-05:00

Pagelynn's favorite thing to do with her dad is play with blocks, because he always builds something coo(house for her little dolls,robot, buildings etc) for her to play with. Me on the other hand I just stack them and she gets bored with me. Usually when I go take my shower Pagelynn goes gets her blocks and says come daddy. So they builds things. The other night Trent was build something and Pagelynn was stuff the blocks down her shirt. She's has always been a stealer by putting things down her shirt like, pennies, candy, canyons and even her uncles guitar picks. lol

Pagelynn loves hadley

2009-03-02T15:20:00.003-06:00

We went to Joplin this weekend for my brothers little girls blessings and to my surprised Pagelynn didn't get jealous when mommy held Hadley. She loved holding her and kept kissing her and petting her like a dog saying nice, nice. I'm so happy for the baby to come to see how Pagelynn treats her.

How fun but yet very stressful it's going to be on them traveling around to see these babies when they are 1st born to going to blessings. It will be stressful especially around April when me and my sister are due like a week apart.ahhh poor grandpa and grandma but how exciting it is for us girls to have all these new babies around.

2009-01-28T13:11:00.002-06:00

SNOW DAY!

Laying in a pile of snow makin a snow angel (laughing her head off)

Running a round loving the snow

We got about 4 inches of snow yesterday, well snow and sleet. So I dressed Pagelynn up in the craziest things but hey she was warm and thats all that matters. I was kinda worried that I put all this work into getting her dressed and she would hate it. To my surprised she loved it and laughed the whole time even when her face went 1st down in the snow. The 2nd picture is of her laying on a pile of snow makin a snow angel. Yes, it looks like I'm a BAD mom and didnt put shoes on her but she had so many socks I couldnt get her shoes over her onies flannel pjs so I put her shoes on under her pjs lol hey it worked . We spent about an hour out there til the pregnant mom was soooo sore from falling over and walkin up the hills.

Pagelynns pretties

2009-01-27T20:37:00.002-06:00

Sunday I curled Pagelynn's hair all cute if you can tell in this picture and when I put on my earrings and necklaces "pretties" is what she calls them, then she also has to have her pretties on. She is soooo hard to take a picture of lately because she just wants to see it so she will stand for a sec and then come running to see the picture. AHHH so i had to be in it to hold her down.

Pagelynn new thing

2009-01-13T21:26:00.005-06:00

Pagelynn's newest and latest thing is to peel and eat an orange, well the are the little ones called cuties or whatever. Anyways she does it from start to finish, shell eat 3 a day. i think only because she likes the peel them and she feels like a big girl.

sliver dollar city

2009-01-03T14:13:00.002-06:00

We went to Sliver dollar city to see the lights, it was a nice day til the sun went down so we werent there for long.Pagelynn had tons of fun seeing the lights but there wasnt much more for her to do. They took out the little kids stuff :(

1st Pet

2009-01-01T22:27:00.004-06:00

Pagelynn got two of the same thing for Christmas so we took one back and she got her 1st pet for the return of her gift. It's name is "fishy" real creative huh? Trent says fish don't need names. But she loves her little beta fish she feeds its, talks to it, and says good night. She thinks winnie (her grandparents dog) are best friends because when we brought home the fish she said "winnie fishy" so I put the fish down low and Winnie jumped up to see it.So know Pagelynn says" winnie see fishy" and I have to pick winnie up so she can see the fish. Well she how long this "fishy" lasts. Cause I really want to get her a puppy for her b-day in June. Well see if daddy lets that happen.

Back to Bethlehem

It's Christmas time

2008-12-27T17:56:00.003-06:00

We had Christmas with my family this year, We spent Christmas Eve having a back to Bethlehem dinner where we ate on the food with our hand. Then we played a game kinda like the newlywed game. Then we sang songs and Santa come to visit. Pagelynn hang on my leg the whole time. She didn't want to sit next to her cousins, didn't want to see Santa it made her soooo scared she was shaking. so all the pictures you see of Pagelynn with the little kids you get to see me to or it was Pagelynn screaming.

This is her kitchen set she got from Santa

All of her cousins and her in their matching PJs from G&G White
She dressed up as a wise man

Christmas dress

My Christmas Angel

This is Pagelynn's Christmas outfit she wore on Sunday, it's was soooo hard to find a outfit that was affordable and not sleeveless(brrr) she got lots of people attention and when they would say oh Pagelynn you look so cute she would lift her feet up to show them her shoes , she must have loved them.

1st day of Nursey

2008-12-14T15:15:00.004-06:00

Today Pagelynn hit the 18 month old stage where she gets to go to nursery. It went pretty well since she hasnt ever been before or really played with other's. My plan was to go and drop her off just to see how she would react but, they didnt have a teacher so I thought I would fill in. Pagelynn pretty much just sat on a chair next to mommy readin a book, rockin a doll or coloring. Once in awhile she would get off her chair walk around and if there was a toy that no one was play ing with she would pick it up, but boy if she had a toy you better not mess with her. She would get her little finger out and shake it saying NO NO NO! I think there was one time that she screamed and throw a fit. that was when she had a ball and rolled it on the ground and a little boy picked it up. Her favorite was snack time of course, she sat there til every thing was gone off her napkin unlike the other kids. She had a little tiny cup with water and i was really nervous, afraid of spills but she handled it like a pro.At the end she was the only kid that wanted her picture that she had color to go show her daddy..Shes getting so big and i just cant let go.. :(

24 weeks and feeling it..

2008-12-13T13:15:00.004-06:00

Scary I know, Hair not done, red eye ahhhhh... but i have had a few people ask to see a picture of my Baby bump. This is at 24 weeks almost 25 I think. I wished i could post my 20 week picture but its on our computer that has crashed.

There is a big change ahh. The little girl i can already tell is going to be a little meeker than Pagelynn she moves alot less that Pagelynn ever did.. But she has her moments where its just craziness in there. Lol i guess we will see in april what shes like. :) with reminds me we better due our taxes early this year and not the last day they are due. lol

Sleigh

2008-12-04T12:42:00.002-06:00

One of the Christmas decor. Pagelynn just cant leave alone.

This little sleigh with stuff animals sits at the front door boy does Pagelynn love to push it around. We had to put a towel under it so it would slide better and not mark up the floors. Then in her cute little mind she decided that the stuff animals dont belong, but she does....

FHE

2008-12-04T12:03:00.004-06:00

For F.H.E we put up the Christmas tree and decor. Pagelynn was so excited about all the stuff she had to play with, so thats what she thought. She was a great help with putting the lights on the tree and moving all the decor. that grandma would put up. As you can see grandma put the tree in its place with Pagelynn right behind watchin and as soon as grandma would leave so would the decor. Pagelynn had in her mind a better place for it.

Pagelynn and her cousins

2008-12-02T14:36:00.002-06:00

Pagelynn loves her cousin's even though they are boys! :)
The 1st picture is of her and Ashten, she wanted to hold the baby is what she asked me but hes almost as big as her so I sat her next to him. She hugged on him as if it was her little doll. The next picture is soooo priceless her and Kaston both love to play the piano so we put them up at the piano together and it was soo cute at how they are lookin at each other.

Thanksgiving

2008-12-02T14:14:00.002-06:00

We spent Thanksgivin with Trent's family this year , there was a totally of 21 people counting the babies. Besides Trent's parent's, brother, and grandparents, there was this cousin Josh baby and wife, the Wallentines Trents Aunt and Uncle and 2 kids,and the Hansen family from Utah and Branson. We had tons and tons of food that we ended up throwing out yesterday. It was a lazy but nice day.

wal-mart trip

2008-11-13T12:49:00.004-06:00

Going to wal-mart with Pagelynn

1.She starts out in the front of the cart

2. Shortly after that she wants in the basket part with all the food

3. she has something open or is beggin to open something to eat

4. I end up carrying her because she has things open or her leg is hanging over the top of the basket trying to get out.

So the other day I was talking on the phone going to wal-mart just to get diapers and milk. bye the time I got to the diapers we were at number 4 already with her leg hanging out of the basket.. Still talkin on the phone with my sister in the baby section looking at the baby dresses i let her out because she usually likes to look at the clothes with me.Instead of doing something mom wants her to do she goes and climbs on the shelves just talk on the phone and watchin to see what she does this is what she up to.......

Sitting on the car seats waiting for me to get mad at her, but instead of getting mad I laugh and take a picture. Big mistake because then she climbs on the potty train toilet things and on the diaper boxes..So back in the cart she goes...we are heading to the front to check out and someone stops me to comment on how cute pagelynn is riding the milk jug..lol didnt get a picture but it was sooo cute she was on sitting on the milk jug saying weeeeweee .. what a imagination she has.

Its a girl

2008-11-01T17:21:00.003-05:00

Pagelynn went trick or treating with her cousin braxton, she did a get job at following him around.

Carving pumpkins

2008-11-01T09:33:00.006-05:00

I know I take way too many pictures........

When I told Trent that we were going to carve pumpkins Thursday night he was like why dont you and Pagelynn just do it. He acts like its something he hates to do.But every year its Trent that gets the tools out of the shop,its trent that makes his soooo detailed and better than everyone elses, its trent that is left bye himself for hours to do his pumpkin. But this year wasnt as bad he didnt do a shaved pumpkin or a really detailed one. But still its very nicely done and looks great. I think he just hates doing it because he doesnt like getting the pumpkin guts all over his hands.

Me on the other hand love to make messes and get drity. So I put Pagelynn in the middle of Trent and I and let her have at it.

She cleaned out her pumpkin...
Brave mom even let her have the carving tool.....

Oh my I started to get really scared with her having that..

She had the pumpkin guts every where ...she even ate some... as you can tell bye the picture below
then she painted our pumpkins with the guts.... ahhhh what a mess but oh she had a blast and i had a blast watching her make her dad go nuts with the mess. lol

our family photo goofy dad on the right, pagelynn with a tooth, the big mommy. LOL

Trunk or Treat

2008-10-31T12:24:00.005-05:00

Pagelynn with her cousin( or something like that) Ashten as a money

Halloween this year hasn't been the best, because Pagelynn HATES putting on anything even a hat. Last year was fun because she was too little to care so I dressed her up as a cute little butterfly.

This year I thought I'm not going to waste my money on something that she wont even wear. So I went on e-bay and bought a homemade candy corn costume from a little lady in Utah.
Well last Saturday was our ward trunk or treat .Trent stuffed an outfit and put an old man mask on this stuffed outfit and put it in the back of dad's van with some other little stuff and told dad to sit next to this old man thats stuffed and it will scare the kids because they wont know whos the real guy... LOL mean Trent. I didnt get a picture of that cuz i was wrestling Pagelynn trying to get something halloweenish on her but she just ripped it off and throw a fit. So I said its not worth it shes not dressing up at the time we didnt have her candy corn costume yet.
So this wednesday we were invited to Our anut Karlas ward trunk or treat to hang out with our cousin Josh, his wife and little one .Trent fought Pagelynn with the candy corn costume that all it does is wraps around her and she again throw her self down and cried, so trent showed her what she looked like in the mirror and she laugh and was ok wearing it. We get to the truk or treat give her a bucket, she looked at us like whats this for then came some candy in it and all of a sudden it clicked in her little mind... as trent said jerry senifield is rite. If you ever heard is joke about kids and halloween.look it up its sooo pagelynn ... after it was all over we couldnt get her to let go of the bucket.LOL after all i could of got some cute costume and she probably would end up loving it. :( i cant wait til tonite. :)

Pickin Pumpkins

2008-10-30T13:39:00.003-05:00

I really really wanted to take Pagelynn to a pumpkin farm this year,but of course I kept putting it off and waiting to see when a good time for Trent would be it got to cold to go out and walk around a farm. So we went last weekend to a little place that sold pumpkins off the side of the road. She just woke up so she looks cranky in the pictures. She loved all the "balls" she tried to pick everyone of them up. I was cute til we got to the small pumpkins and she could pick them up and throw them. LOL

Piggies

2008-10-27T12:10:00.003-05:00

I was the lucky one in my family and was born with lots of black hair. So when I was pregnant with a little girl and was hoping that she would be like her mom and come out with lots of black hair. Well to my surprise I have a little Blondie girl with very little hair. Pagelynn doesn't have much hair at the age of 16 months, I wished she would keep bows in her hair. But usually her hair is stickin straight up because I do her hair the same all the time a little little fountain as people call it on top of her hair. It doenst last long so when she takes it out it doesnt go down til i wet it. I only did that because she doesnt have much hair in the back. So getting tried of her roster hairdo (i wished i had a picture of) i finally was able to put her hair in back pig tales. She looked sooo much older to me but also bold because you couldnt see her pig tales from the front..but all in all she looked cute. I just cant wait til her hair gets longer so i can do cute things to do.

A picture of her fountain

Pagelynn's baby

2008-10-24T12:28:00.005-05:00

Pagelynn has just started to like baby dolls, its so cute to watch her pat their back,kiss them, rock them. I just hope that when the baby come she still likes babies and is cute with our baby as she is with her dolls now.

I have another cute video but i cant get it to download......

2008-10-21T19:45:00.005-05:00

This weekend we went to my parents house in Carthage, were they have a festival called "The Maple Leaf". We went to the parade thats 3 hours long, then to a car show. It was cold for an hour of the parade then it warmed up to be a great day. Pagelynn seemed to enjoy the parade til the last 40 mins.

There were Harley's in the parade they were really loud and I looked a Pagelynn she was plugging her ear's.. Start girl
