We started the New Year with a BANG! Lexi was baptised on January 6, 2018. She has been anxiously awaiting this day for a long time.
These beautiful girls were blessed AND baptised together. Nicole and I were a little reluctant to do it together with the thought they'd feel sad they didn't get their own day, but it was SO much better having it together. The girls held hands the whole day and were inseparable. They had each other when they were nervous and the spirit was double strength.
She's so lucky to have a father who loves her so much and holds the sacred priesthood. He did a wonderful job and I swear never has any nerves. He did amazing with the confirmation.
We did a luncheon afterwards at Nicole's house and she of coarse had it looking perfect. I'm so grateful for her home and willingness to host always. Lexi had an amazing turn out with all of her extended family, minus little Tyler and her school teacher and school friends, Layla, Reese, Brody and Logan. She is a very loved and spiritual girl. She definitely felt the spirit and on the way to the luncheon broke down in tears telling us thank you for helping her choose the right.
Me, Bodee, Tess and Lexi sang "Choose Him Again" at the baptism and although I don't claim to have any musical talent, those kids brought the spirit with their sweet voices and testimonies. We practiced for months and they did amazing. My mom did the talk on the Holy Ghost and of coarse her spirit is so recognizable. Kasidy and Tyler were Lexi's witnesses. Zack was going to be but had a tire blow out on the way!
Tess was a little upset I wasn't taking pictures of her!
The next pictures are out of order but it takes too long to organize them!
This adorable little man just turned 4. He had his very first friend birthday and had so much fun. He is a seriously amazing little boy. He is well mannered, always giving compliments, caring, adventurous, daring, smart and we couldn't just couldn't love him more. He loves his family and loves hanging and doing anything with his Dad. He still pees in his diaper at night and has a serious addiction to XBOX but other than that my complaints are few. He rides his new motorcycle like a pro and is seems to be good at everything just like his Dad. His 4 year old stats are 35 pounds 40% and 3 feet 4 inches and 40%
We took him and and the crew to Classic Skating to the Bounce Houses and they absolutely loved it. For ice cream he asked for Midnight (rocky road)!
This was a little Martin Luther King day of fun we had with some good friends. They just built an iceskating rink 2 minutes away from us and its so fun to go.
Tess is really getting good, while Lexi is of coarse a pro because she takes after her Dad. Bodee was horrible and Maverik went around in a stroller!
I had a horrible flu this month and my amazing sister took the girls for almost 2 days. She was a life savor and the kids of coarse had a blast dressing up, and doing crafts with their cute family.
Bodee and Maverik went to Kingston and Bodee was outside with Zatara almost the whole day. He got to ride him by himself, groom him and train him. He was in Heaven. Poor Maverik doesn't like the cold so he stayed inside with Grandma and played just before he got the flu too.
Bodee and his pal Hadly playing dress up. Bodee kept saying "Mom, she wants me to play barbies."! HAHA
I came home one day to Brandi and Aaron watching the kids and apparently, they don't watch them well! I can't believe they were strong enough flip the couches and move them around.
Maverik came up to me super excited to show me something. He was all smiles when I came to see it!
Trying to get an impossible picture with these 4. The kids sure love baby Gabe.
The sweet couple, ironically, the Lamberts that he lived with while in training in Denver, sent the kids these sweet German maid Christmas presents. They were adorable.
A really great way to check the straightness of your teeth. Funny game!
Next up was Lexi's birthday party which we had on the 30th of Decemeber. Her 8th party was a success and so much fun. She had some cute friends and her cousins come ice skating and they all had a good time.
What can I say about my little 8 year old. She is beautiful on the inside and out. She cares so much about other people and is a great example to me about love. She is funny, super talented and good at everything. She LOVES gymnastics and rocks at it. She may act like a 16 year old at times and we may fight more than I'd like but this girl will go places one day. She's a rockstar. Her stats are 57 pounds 4 ounces 50% and 4 feet 1.5 inches. at 40%.
Kids Memories
November 2017 Bodee finds the whole in his underwear, sticks his penis through and says "FABULOUS"
December 2017 Jesse Tells Maverik his eyes are unique, Maverik points at Jesse and says "NO, You Nique"
January 2018 at Bodee's 4 year appt. When he heard he was going to get a shot her put his hands ini the air and said "I want to get poked" And he barely cried for all three shots.
Tess is telling me the colors of the gingerbread noses and finds a nude color nose and calls it skin color!
