Hope all of you enjoy your Christmas weekend.
We're hoping for snow. :)

Bubbles or....

Tonight at bathtime Ashby asked me to put London in with her (which I do regularly). Now as I had bathed London last night, I told her that she could bathe by herself tonight. (Partly because I thought she'd enjoy it and partly because that gave me a little bit of less busy time)


When she acted like that wasn't what she wanted, I told her she could have a bubble bath or London in the bath with her.


I thought she'd chose the Bubbles. I was wrong.
I am very happy to be wrong.


I love that she Loves her sister soo much!

Just because I love pictures...



This is London at about 1 month old. I love both my girls

The Missing Gloves

It's winter time. It's winter time in Utah. And the high this week has been...oh I don't like 8 degrees. Yeah. I know.
Anyway, when we go outside Ashby and I both try to keep gloves on our hands. The other day as we were getting ready to go Ashby came and told me she couldn't find her gloves. When I questioned her further this was her reply:

(in a very matter of fact three year old way) "Mommy, I checked the office, the bathroom ANND my bedroom and the gloves are no where to be found."

Update: The gloves were later located by the expert mother eye, in said bedroom.

We love you Hermana Lu! Here's a hug from us to you!

For Amy

My little sister (1st of 2 little sisters), Miss Lu as I call her, is currently serving on a mission. She has been serving for a year now. We took her to the MTC last December 17th. Wow. I havn't been so good at sending pictures lately. Yes I know you are soo surprised. But last week I told her I would post some on my blog so she could check it out the next time she is online (tomorrow).

So this post is mostly to get me back into blogging. It isn't that I don't enjoy or want to blog. I do, I love sharing pictures and stories from our everyday lives. I just don't always make the time for it.

So without further ado, Pictures!

Here we have Ashby a week ago as compared to:


A year ago. (yes she is wearing her training panties on the outside. haha She LOVES dress up!)


Here's some London Love:


There are some pics of our two cute girls!

Favorite Things and a little wisdom

London just loves this baby gym. It is definitely her new favorite thing to do. Thanks G Family for letting us use it. The best part is when she starts rollin' around because she is trying to hit the little hanging animals with her feet.

Ashby's favorite thing to do is to play dress up. More specifically dress up to get married and dance. But this video had the dancing and dress up. So I figure it counts. When Ashby is getting "married" she likes to put on a dress (any dress - a dress up dress or a normal dress) and a blanket for a veil and then I get to sing the "wedding song". You know "here comes the bride...". Then she dances with her "prince". Often times the prince is a girl. but maybe that's because she thinks that boys don't shower.

Oh that reminds me of her little wisdom. I hope she remembers this as a 12-20 year old. That boys are "icky, icky sticky"
