Yummy Sunday Pictures

So this evening I asked Calvin to take some pictures and here's some I thought were cute....McKenna the best big sister in the world holding Sophia. :o) Two peas in a pod look at those mouths :o)

Isn't that a cute little tutu onesie


Not sure what McKenna was doing or saying here but Sophia looks cute

Oh here's my two pretty girls!

Oh so cute

At the dinner table Sophia was wondering..."Where's the Beef"

Or show me my bottle that works!

I hid the bottle and if looks could injure someone Kenna would have injured me and Sophie got sad and started to pucker up :o(

Does this flower make my head look big? ha

My cutie pie Calvin...he is starting MMA training tomorrow with his Daddy, Uncle Toma and Aunt Jess's brother Evan.

Best buddies chilling after stuffing their faces with dinner and dessert

I know I know so many pictures of the girls but they are so pretty

I love those smiles!

And here's one with me in it

I was holding her as she was trying to eat her foot and after several trys...

Success and luckily her toes are clean but I'm sure the lotion tastes funny

YUMMY

Cute bubbles

Sophia is 4 months old now and weights 14.4 lbs! She's a cute little chub with rolls everywhere her chin, her thighs and her arms!

She is such a great baby...seriously I don't know how we got so blessed! She's been sleeping 8 hours or more for over 2 months and usually sleeps for 10 hours. Saturday she slept for 12 hours straight. Yes AMAZING!

She hardly ever cries even when she's super tired and when she does it's not much of a cry at all. She smiles and blows cute little slobber bubbles all day. She thinks she can talk lately. She rolled over for the first time yesterday from her tummy to her back two times in a row. :o) She loves music and kicks her feet like crazy to it and smiles so big. She's starting to figure out how to grab things that she wants and put them in her mouth. She laughs all of time and is ticklish under her arms. We think she is a professional hair puller but only time will tell. She loves to squeeze your fingers and touch your face if she is close enough. She has the biggest blue eyes and the still has those cute chubby cheeks! She loves both her big sister and her big brother and gets so excited when they talk to her especially Calvin. McKenna sets her up right next to her at the piano in her swing or bouncy chair and plays the piano to her and Sophia just smiles. Daddy can always get her to talk and smile for him and she is possibly turning into a Daddy's girl but for now she's still a Momma's girl and I couldn't be happier! Sorry Dad but I need one out of three! :o)




This is a picture of a picture off a cell phone that I took yesterday blowing cute spit bubbles. Sophia Sophie Sophers and Sophapilla Sophapeeah (all of which she turns her head to) but mostly referred to as Sophia we love you to pieces baby girl and you were so worth the wait!!!! :o)

TIPSY ! ? !

Two little cuties sitting on a couch...Wait a minute big brother don't leave, where are you going? I'm leaning on you...

My baby is 12 back on May 21st!

Look it's a bird it's a plane no it's super woman I mean young woman! McKenna turned 12 on Friday, May 21st and she had a friend party 8 girls come over. Then on Sunday we had family over for cake and ice cream. Pictured below is Kenna blowing out her 12 candles and her grandma Mimi (Will's Mom) holding Sophia. I think Sophia was willing and ready to help blow out the candles with her spit bubbles. :o)McKenna successfully blew out all 12 candles on both cakes with one breath! :O) Pictures are not in order I didn't realize I downloaded them in the reverse order I wanted.

This picture below was taken on Friday right before all of her friends arrived. So cute Calvin watching her open his gift and hugging on her. His buddy Jacob is in the picture.

She wasn't going to slap him she actually patted his arm thanking him.

Happy 12th Birthday McKenna!!!

We love you so so so much!

Dang it!

Will needs a new motor and his truck is broken down out in Thunderbird Farms (30 minutes away in 107 degree's) so thankfully his brother Toma is on the way with a tow strap. This is just a terrible time for this to happen DANG IT!!!

Beautiful Temple, toenails and kids

Temples....Toe nails and kids......

Gila Valley Temple

McKenna and Sophia this evening looking so cute! May 15th, 2010 McKenna only six days away from turning 12 and Sophia is 14 weeks old both so beautiful!
McKenna went with the youth from church to the Gila Valley Temple in Safford/Thatcher, AZ area today and while there took a tour of President Spencer W. Kimball's home. They left this morning at 7am and returned about 8pm tonight. McKenna went straight for her baby sister because she missed her all day she said. :o) McKenna is so cute with her.

Here's a picture of the beautiful new LDS Temple that McKenna got to go in today. It's the open house for it so anyone can go in without the usual Temple recommend that is required after the Temple has been dedicated to the Lord as a sacred house of worship. The open house period lasts for a few weeks.

A night shot of the Temple that I borrowed from my cousin Rachel's blog. Rachel lives there along with 3 other cousins of mine. :o) They will dedicate the Temple next weekend and then no one without a recommend will be allowed to enter so it's a neat opportunity for everyone.

McKenna said it was the prettiest church she has ever seen and we had a nice chat about it. She told me of how beautiful everything was and that so many things were made with gold and the beautiful diamond chandelier. I had to break it to her that it's not diamonds it is crystals but very expensive beautiful crystals. She loved every bit of it! She had a blast with the girls and came home hyper and full. :o)

While she was gone today not only did I pull the weeds in the front yard but I also took the time to polish mine and Sophie's nails. I did Sophie's toes and fingernails this hot pink. So cute! Of course McKenna and Calvin loved it...Dad on the other hand didn't say much. :o)

Sophia's beautiful little feet 5/14/2010

Buddies

Jacob and Calvin tonight. They were pretty much together all day long and over at Uncle Toma's house. I have admit that when Calvin first started hanging out with Jacob I wasn't to happy about it as Calvin tended to not behave very well afterwards. I told Calvin if he didn't start being a good example to Jacob that he wouldn't be allowed to play with him anymore. I know harsh words. Calvin started gradually behaving a little better and so did Jacob. Jacob's Mom told us what a good kid Calvin was so we continued to let them play almost on a daily basis. A few weeks later to my surprise Calvin was sharing gospel principals with Jacob and they were having a deep religious conversation two 8 year olds. :o) A few more weeks have past and Jacob has gone to church with us 3 times and loves it! Loves it so much that his Mom is even going to come this weekend due to her son and also a good neighbor Liz Orton who asked her to go this Sunday with them....so awesome and here I was going to not allow them to play together. Silly me!

I'm so thankful for the gospel in my life and for the opportunity to see it work in my children's lives. Today was great! Our oldest daughter had a fabulous day on her first ever Temple trip with the Young Womens. Calvin has set a great example to his friend and has brought religion into their lives and who knows maybe one day they might even choose to be members of the LDS faith yes we are Christians. :o) Sophia and I had great bonding time today and so did Will and I. Beautiful Beautiful day!

Beautiful girls!

May 1st weekend

These pictures aren't in order of events...I tried I can't click and drag them anymore and am not sure why it's very frustrating so after trying for an hour I'll just leave them in the wrong order and explain. April 29th right after work we headed to Springerville, AZ for my Grandma's 80th birthday party. We stayed at my cousin Richie's house. The party was the next day Saturday, May 1st even though my Grandma Glenna's birthday is actually May3rd. Due to the amount of family coming we had it at the LDS church and all of my talented aunts made yummy Mexican food and lots of different cakes. There's lots of pictures from the actual party at the church. Grandma's brothers and sisters well most of them came and then 8 out of 10 of my Grandma's kids were there. We had good food and a great visit! Sophia was held by practically everyone there and kept on smiling! After the party and visiting we (Will, I and some other family members) headed to Show Low for the races where Richie my cousin is defending his title as NASCAR rooky of the year, track champion and state champion! We're so proud! The kids had a blast babysitting Sophia with Grammy back at Richie's house. At the races it was so so so cold but we had a blast watching cousin Richie and Uncle Richard race. The next day we woke up to a snowy blizzard! We got home fine but unfortunately saw a couple of tragic accidents or at least they appeared to be tragic. Richie's race carThe kids playing at Grandma's 80th birthday party! Richie & Mandy's house Sunday morning after the initial snowing. Picture courteous of my cousin Rachel.

Driving home looked just like this for us too...I took this off of Rachel's blog.

The sunset Saturday night as we were driving over to Show Low, my cousin Rachel took this picture.
