march for the bodtchers

laughing so hard with papa, buzzing her new color book// I hit a wooden crate in the middle of the freeway on my way to work. the car is in the shop for 3 weeks and we're out a thousand dollars. thank goodness for Randy and Julie, for letting us borrow their car// feeding the ducks at Wheeler Farm// pretending to be a pro photographer!// we learned how to say "night night" and "moooorning!" to the fishies// so desperate to be in school and play with the big kids// Amelia and Bosten on a rainy day// walking through the Home Depot with Daddy, yet again.

a selfie we took to send to Daddy// another selfie, in bed// love her little face when she falls asleep with her mouth open// walking home from church// sometimes Daddy and Amelia send Mom pictures at work, too// practicing her somersaults// matching outfits, of course!// rare morning when I remind myself, "let them be little."

kissess for days// crossed legged in sacrament, "chey-ro, pease!"// what I walk into after every nap// matching jammies with Molly babe// trying to sneak some chips in after a Costco run// first grill of the season-- we're so excited for Spring!// my baby girl looks so tall, reaching for the door handle. she blew through size 12 months and is jumping right into 18 months!// Amelia is excited for our granite countertops (in the basement, of course).

a causal Sunday evening stretch with mom// still throwing full on tantrums over here. terrific twos coming up, ya know?// sometimes it's hard to explain "wrong mailbox" to the girl// Bosten & Amelia playing on the " 'iano"// love this sweet little babe of mine// March temple visit, luckily we have a cute Beehive who lives just right across the street// rushing home for all the little things-- brushing teeth, potty, jammies, "temple song," and of course the kiss & "love you"// Millie babe checking on our pizza.

keeping mom company in the potty... no privacy needed around here!// dusted off our porch swing... and it rained/snowed/hailed the very next day// all day long, Millie babe kept pointing to herself and saying "tookie!" I kept thinking she wanted a cookie, but later on I figured out she was pointing to the COOKIE on her shirt! oh my Millie, she really is a smart cookie!// watching Dad get his hair cut by Aunt Shauna; not loving all the extra noises!// Daddy and Millie out to the free, air conditioned zoo- Pet Smart, of course!// carrying her own church bag to sacrament, we're getting better and better at sitting through the whole meeting!// blessing day for Miss Hadley Mae... it seems like it was just last year we blessed her brother! oh wait... it was// huuuuuuuge bite of oatmeal.


I love my little family and my little life.
feeling so blessed for all that I have.
