Jace at 14 months

This is the funniest video of Jace trying to eat his lunch.

Jace...

I found Jace hanging off the couch yesterday while taking his nap.

It reminded me off all the funny pictures we have of Jace sleeping in all kinds of positions... Enjoy!

Hiking at Payson Lake

We were getting ready to go see the lights at Temple Square. It was about 5:00 and he hadn't had a nap all day. I just figured he'd take one on the drive up there. He was too tired to wait for the drive... he was even too tired to make it all the way on to the couch.

Here he was watching TV when he passed out.

waiting for mom to get dressed in the morning...

In the boat a bear lake...

walking...

This one is by far my favorite! I have no idea how he even fell asleep like that.

Cyras 1st sleepover

Over the weekend Cyra had her very best friend over for a sleepover. It was such a fun thing for her to get to do, she is already asking when she can do it again.

They were so cute, at 6:00 we were getting the bed ready and they were both begging to go to sleep. Here they are pretending to be sleeping.

After that they found some lipstick. The rest of the evening was spent getting ready for the "ball". They were in the bathroom putting the lipstick on for 30minutes straight.

Look at those beautiful lips!

You can't have a "ball" without a handsome prince... with lipstick on!

and of course, a sleepover is not a sleepover without some silliness going on.

Here they are just before I was about to turn out the lights. They were a little excited...

Happy Birthday Aunt Cyndi!

It was Cyndi's Birthday Friday. We had a nice relaxing party over at her place Sunday, after church. Cyndi with her FRUIT PIZZA "cake"

Tori and Jace playing ring around the rosy
Xander!

Look at the flexibility on this kid!
Okay... the next few pictures are Jace and Cyndi making faces for the camera. Jace would copy whatever Cyndi would do.

This is when Cyra noticed the camera was out and decide SHE needed to get in on this action.

Happy Mothers Day!

We had a great mothers day yesterday. After church we had a bbq over here, with lots of GOOD food! (BBQ'd Beef ribs, BBQ'd chicken, chorizos, baked chicken, homemade rolls, corn on the cob, potato salad, green salad, watermelon and Birthday cake!) Luckily the weather stayed nice enough for us to be outside.

Here is the "fancy"cake Cyndi made for Cyra. She thought that was the BEST! What was even cuter was how proud Milo was that HIS mom baked that "all by herself". Way to go Cyndi!

Since we were all together we took some Mothers day pictures. This was the best shot I could find in the many pictures James took(maybe Chely has something better). It was so funny doing them because it was madness going on around, the kids kept going in front of the camera to show us something, Cyra was back behind grandmas wheel chair trying to get me to help her open one of her presents. We really should of took video instead! So I have to show this picture. I was looking through the pictures last night after everyone left and came across this one. At first glance it reminded me of that segment you see on Sesame Street: Which one of these is NOT like the other...
I am thinking maybe I need to get my hair colored... or maybe I really WAS found in the garbage can all those years ago!

HaPpY BiRtHdAy CyRa!

Yesterday Cyra turned 4 years old! She decided that her party was going to be Tinker Bell/ Fancy Nancy. These are the invites we came up with for the party.
She is such a girly girl... notice in most of the pictures taken of her she is posing. Not once did we ever tell her to pose or how to stand. This is just the way she is... FANCY! :)

Maren getting her nails painted.
Abbie all dress-up

I thought this was such a cute picture of Ashley.
It is not possible to have a Fancy party without inviting Milo!Maren, Milo, Ashley, Cyra,Addy, Abbie, Reese

After the Fancy Party we had to go out to eat at La Vigna Ristorante Italiano (because that is FANCY!) Cyra was very impressed with the glass dishes and the granite tabletop.

After dinner we HAD to go to an Icecream Parlour to get a"Parfait" (to unfancy people that would be a sundae)


James thinks this picture looks like the kids are sitting at some bar :) I guess it IS a bar... just a different kind!After the "Parfait" we decided to walk around Thanksgiving Point to get some energy out and look at all the beautiful flowers.I think this picture looks like some book cover or something. Zane and Kaysha in the background make me think of some poor step children that are left out of the family. :) It was such a fun day! Now to clean-up the house :(
