Couch potatoes. They sure do love those blankies.

A boy after my own heart. He loves to try on those shoes - even if they are 6 year old girl shoes.

I caught a Maycie bug.

First Day of School Cake

Aren't I a good mom? I have to keep reminding myself that. The girls were surprised with a "First Day of School" cake when they came home.

Back To School

It finally came and not a moment too soon - for the girls and mom. The girls both started preschool a Trinity United Methodist church. Don't worry. We didn't convert, but most the churches out here do preschools to bring in extra revenue.

This is Maycie's first year of preschool. Every time we dropped Addie off at preschool last year Maycie would sadly ask, "When is it my turn to go to school?" and my responding "When you turn three". Well, we finally made it. She was a little apprehensive at first, but quickly warmed up once she found the toy horses - her favorite.

This is Addie's third year of preschool and after a difficult decision of whether to send her to kindergarten as one of the youngest, I finally heeded all the voices around me that said, "you'll never regret waiting another year to send her to kindergarten". Her program is called Transitional Kindergarten. It's a lot like half day kindergarten in Utah (out here kindergarten is all day), except it's not payed by the taxpayers, but rather by my quickly shrinking wallet.

Two Birds With One Stone!

Well, after much prodding and teasing because I'm technilogically challenged (I just sent my first text 2 days ago) I finally started a blog. This is for all you regular bloggers out there. And for those of you who aren't, well, I'll send you a little reminder every now and then to check it so you don't miss out on our growing family. Actually, what tempted me to do this was someone told me you can have your blog printed into a book. Since many of you know my strong adversion to scrapbooking and since my journaling has become virtually non existance, this was a good way for me to kill two birds with one stone. This is such a fun and exciting time in life and I really do want to document and remember it. It just seems that life goes so fast, I can hardly keep up. I can't promise anything fancy (I still have 4 years of pictures on my camera) but I'll do my best. So.... here goes.
