Pizza My Heart

Friday nights are always pizza nights around our house. The Friday before Valentine's Day we decided to make a heart shaped pizza to celebrate the occasion. The kids always have a lot of fun helping me decorate the pizza with toppings. Madison and Hyrum were being particularly goofy this night and I was so glad I got to catch it all on camera. They are so much fun!





After the pizza came out of the oven we used heart shape cookie cutters for our pizza slices. We loved it!


And I sure do LOVE my kids!!

We've got mail!

One of the things that make Hyrum and Madison's day is mail. ESPECIALLY when its from Grandma. Grandma was so nice to send these kids a package for Valentine's day, and they were ECSTATIC!

These kids were in heaven with all their goodies. We love you Grandma!

Two Little Monkeys...

Madison and Hyrum LOVE to have sleepovers during the weekend. One night Cory went in to tuck them in and called out, "Aub, do you know where the kids are?" My heart skipped a beat- or two!- and I replied that they should be in their BEDS. They weren't- and they weren't in Hyrum's room either. We looked in their closets, no sign of them. Then Cory thought to look under Madison's bed. And lo and behold- there they were!- with flashlights in hand. I guess they wanted to "camp out".
Both of them were fast asleep under the bed. Before we put them in their beds, we had to take a picture of them. I was talking to Madison about it the next morning and she told me, "Mommy, you didn't have to worry, I stuck out my foot at the end of the bed so you could see us." Oops- I guess I didn't catch that part of the game. I love my funny little monkeys! :)

Our Own Little "Mini Cooper"

I have finally gotten up enough energy to catch up on the blogging... a little bit.



Madison and Hyrum are proud to announce that they will be a big sister (again!) and big brother. (Mommy and Daddy are pretty excited too!)
Madison and I have had some pretty serious conversations about her new baby brother or sister that I had to share for record sake. When talking about names Madison declared: "Mommy, we will know if the baby is a boy or a girl because when the baby is born, if its a girl then she will come out with a headband on her head. If the baby doesn't come out with a headband then it will definitely be a boy!" Smart girl, she is. Why didn't Mommy think of that one! :) Madison asks me almost daily when her new baby brother or sister is going to be coming out of my tummy- I tell her we need to let the baby stay in there a lot longer. She has also asked me if the baby is wearing any clothes while in my tummy... or, where does the baby go to the bathroom? All very legit questions. Smart girl. It's so fun that she actually gets it this time around. Hyrum still has no clue.
In any case, we are all so happy and can't wait for our "mini cooper" to arrive in August.

**For anyone who is interested- I am 12.5 weeks. I am on the uphill and feeling pretty good! My due date is Aug. 15th.**
