Emmett's 4th Birthday

Emmett had the best birthday so far. He understood it was his special day and he was happy all day. We hired Jerry (the snow sculptor) in Springville to come and make Emmett a bull for his birthday. Jerry lives on canyon road and makes snow sculptors for the community in his front yard. He's very talented and we really enjoy his talent. He came by twice and fixed it because our house is south facing and it melted pretty quickly.
Happy Birthday Emmett!


Birthday Boy
Emmett loved opening his presents. When he opened the barn form Emily and Max he said, "NO WAY". It was adorable. After he opened the plastic animals from Grandma Jude and Nana he walked up to Nana and said with his arms stretched open,"would you like a hug?"

Max, Austin, Cody, Emmett, Nathan, Kole, Hunter, Adah, Brinley, and Carly

 We had a birthday party for all of the cousins his age, and two friends. He loved all the attention being on him and loved his party. We played a birthday game, had dinner, opened presents, and had cake and ice-cream.

We love our Birthday Boy
Savannah Thorpe and Maxine Bona made Emmett's cake. He wanted a warthog cake. He sure loves his animals.  Bonafied Goodies is awesome! Not only did the cake look awesome, but it tasted great too!

Birthday Stash. He got a barn, gun, puzzles, 9 plastic animals, books, movie, art supplies, and a laughing cow.
 Emmett was so happy and he's such a great kid. I love him so much! I'm proud of him and how smart he is. He's also very obedient. He listens to us very well and has a tender heart. I always think about the day he was born, and how I would relive that day over and over. I love being his mom!

Adah 22 months

She loves the phone!



Adah is 22 months old now. She's talking so much more and tries to repeat anything we ask to her to say. She says, "hold you" when she wants me to hold her and gets jealous if I'm holding Emmett or a different baby. She just started watching TV and her favorite movie is Spirit. It's been nice to have her sit still for a while and watch a movie! She always brings me a stuffed animal and a blanket and wants me wrap the animal up in a blanket and pretends it's her baby. (She's a natural mom). I catch myself multiple times a day starring at her and thinking how beautiful she is. I am in love with this little girl. She sleeps all night and usually wakes up around 6:30am for a bottle and diaper change and then goes back to bed until 9. She takes one nap during the day for 2 hours. Her favorite foods are oatmeal & toast, mac and cheese, pizza, pears, bananas, raisins (which we limit cause they give her diarrhea), and crackers. She still gets a bottle before bed and nap time and we're only giving her the binky when shes in her crib.
