Trip to Idaho

I had the chance to go home last week with Jayda. It was a super fun trip! I got to see alot of my family. We worked to paint and tile, helping to remodel different rooms in the house. We celebrated some birthdays and did a session in the Rexburg Temple. It was a quick but wonderful visit!

Jayda was loving this old Sesame Street Clubhouse.

Stuck in a Box

Jayda crawled into this toy box and couldn't get out. Obviously, she was having a great time!

Bath + Siblings= Fun

Raindrops Keep Falling on My Head

It's been drizzly the last few days. Yesterday Cole and Sadie wanted to play in the rain and loved every minute of it!

Tofu, Teething and Tiny Tot

When Cole was around 12-18 months, he was hardly eating anything. With some help, we finally figured out he had a major texture issue. Anyway, one of the things that we found that he loved that helped him get his protein was plain tofu. We would cut up little chunks and he ate it like candy. It always kind of grossed me out. :) Well, Jayda only had 2 two teeth, so a week or so ago, we were looking for ways for her to get some food that I didn't have to mash all the time. Since she has been like a girl version of Cole, we decided to try tofu. Guess what?! She loves it! So funny. (By the way, Cole wanted to try the tofu as I was cutting it up for Jayda. I didn't know if he would still like it, but he took a big bite, chewed, swallowed and exclaimed "This is delicious, Mom! Can I have more?!"

Monday Jayda finally broke through her third tooth! Finally! She has been way slower than the other two at teething. She got her top right front tooth. Yippee for Jayda!

Yesterday our tiny tot, Jayda, took her first step...three of them, in fact. She was standing a ways in front of me. I let go of her hand and she just stood there. I told her to come see Mommy and she took 3 steps before falling into my arms! I'm so proud of her!

Happy Birthday Sadie!!

Primary Talent Show Video

Recently, our ward had a primary talent show. We asked Cole what he wanted to do for the talent show and he paused and said, "Well, I can hit a baseball. Is that a talent?" We will let you decide. Some of the other talents included riding a bike, barking like a dog and performing a summersault.

Snow in March!

We woke up to a world of white last week. Bart stayed home and played outside with the kids. They were in HEAVEN! Cole and Sadie took turns wearing Bart's ski goggles. Sadie had an incident sledding in December and it left her scared to have snow on her face... The kids got to play with the sled we purchased after the last snowfall. They had a super time! Thanks for playing Daddy!

Jayda

Jayda has changed quite a bit in the last few weeks. She is a super fast crawler, she goes up the stairs extremely quickly, she will walk beside you holding just one hand, she chatters nonstop...Here are some pictures!
