Cute outfit!!! [Said in high voice]

Are you ready for some pictures????


My mom (Janean) got the kids some matchy Easter clothes. They are pretty cute so we wanted to take pictures of them all dolled up, except we were waiting for the snow to go away and then to find some green grass, instead of brown. When we were in Salt Lake this weekend I finally got ambitious and took the kids out to take their pictures. Gavin wanted nothing to do with sitting still and looking at the camera. He would run away laughing every time I sat him down and then backed up to try and take a picture. The silly little kid. McKinley liked it. She was posing for a few pictures by herself. Anyways, here are the results. I didn't have time to finish this post so Erica will finish for me.

Jamison is slowly learning to sit up. We got some quick pictures of him sitting on the grass. He wasn't happy for very long, but we managed to get some cute ones of him.
Gavin is hilarious! He's getting so big! He's starting to loose his baby fat. Very, very slowly! He is so funny!
McKinley was hanging on this tree, upside down, but she stopped long enough to let us get this picture. She's really quite photogenic when she let's us catch her on camera.
We never did get a good one of all three kids looking at the camera. Oh well!

We were driving home Tuesday night and for some reason McKinley was asking about the planets. Its been so long since I've even tried to name all 9 planets, mind enough know what order they go in. As we were talking about the planets and the universe and how big it all is, McKinley asked me, "Mom, do we live on a speck?". I had to laugh! If you've ever seen "Horton Hears a Who" you know what she is talking about. Pretty much sums it up-we live on a speck!

One tiny miracle!

You are never going to believe this! I almost don't believe it myself! My kids are all asleep and they have been for over an hour!! I know-it's amazing! My husband is also asleep, but you can't really blame him. He was laying next to McKinley and zonked out. Getting up at 6 am will do that to you. He needs to sleep almost as much as I do.
Now-you think I would be doing my dishes like a good girl. Not a chance. Maybe in a bit!
I have to tell you-I'm taking this adult hip hop class. It's really fun! My mother in law goes with me. I've always loved to dance and told Matthew that I wanted to join a class, but hadn't gotten around to it. This lady in my ward goes to the class and she told me about it. Her daughters take dance at the place and the "parents" class is free for the parents of the students. Its really free to anyone who goes! Bonus for me! I love it! I've always liked to dance, but never been involved in a group for money reasons. We actually get to compete-okay not compete as there are not many classes in our age group, but perform. We go to SLC on the 22nd of May. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time! I even get to do an assisted front flip! Wish me luck!
I need to go shower. Another miracle-a shower without wondering if my kids are behaving or if my baby is lying injured from his siblings! How nice!
