HAPPY BIRTHDAY PRESTON!!!







Preston is a whopping TWO YEARS OLD today!!! My how times flies! We are celebrating his birthday on Sunday when we get to Utah with our family. So, I made him a stack of Mickey Mouse pancakes to enjoy for his birthday. I am going to take him to Toys R Us today and let him pick out something little. I couldn't let a kid go his whole birthday without a little something!! Plus, we joined Geoffrey's birthday club and got a good coupon! HA HA. I can't believe how much he has grown and that two years has actually gone by. I included a picture of Hannah enjoying her breakfast too. I often prop her bottle up for her to eat when I'm trying to do many things at once...which is always in the morning! I think it looks funny.
Just for the record...he ate the WHOLE STACK of pancakes! That's my boy!

Something in the air....


this was this morning

this was tonight
SNOW!!!! Can you believe it? Remember how we live in Las Vegas??? NEVADA??? It is so funny watching people outside taking pictures and stuff. Our neighbor said tonight he has lived here his whole life and he's never seen anything like this. The funny part is they don't have snow plows here. Our neighbor said they are shipping them in from other places. There was no way I was leaving the house today to drive with a bunch of people who have never seen snow before. I'd rather avoid that situation.
It's just been such a weird day. Preson decided today that Hannah makes a great foot stool. Yeah, I had just changed Hannah on the floor and went to the garage to put the diaper out there. When I got back Preston was standing directly ON TOP of Hannah and was playing the piano. So, I freaked out. Hannah was about purple she was crying so hard. Don't worry, she's ok. Luckily Preston doesn't weigh a ton. Then, I put him in time out and he pulled the curtain off the wall. Nice. It's just been one of those days where everything you don't want your kids to do...they do it anyway.

Merry Christmas


I didn't send Christmas cards out this year. I decided to save the money. So, I'll post my Christmas card on here. Hope you all have a Merry Christmas!

I love Christmas


How cute are they in their Christmas outfits?? Thanks Mom Clark for Preston's outfit! Hannah is so sick, it's so sad. Her little cry sounds so hoarse. It's awful. Preston was kinda sick but he didn't get too bad. I think he's the one that started it around our house.
Anyway, I will be SO glad when this week is over. Brad has been so busy studying and I think we're both going to love just relaxing for a couple weeks. I love this time of year so much. I just want to buy a present for everyone I know! I wish I could!

Santa



We went to our ward party tonight. It was pretty fun! I'm on the activities committee so I have to say that. Ha ha. Here's some pictures with Santa. I was the official photographer for Santa tonight...LOTS of kids to take them of! Our ward is huge. Preston wasn't too sure what to think but he didn't cry. He was being pretty shy.

Love it!


I heard this on the radio yesterday and I love it! Brad and I are big Carrie Underwood fans!

Finally a workout that WORKS!!

Just an update for all of you who have inquired about the 30 Day Shred...I started last Tuesday, I believe and since then I've lost 6.5 lbs and a total of 3 inches off my waist. Kind of seems impossible but it's true! I feel so much better but I have a ways to go! My friend also told me the video is rated number one in fitness on Amazon.com! So...I have a testimony of the 30 Day Shred!

A little Christmas Cheer


I was making centerpieces for our ward's Christmas party with red and green ribbon. I guess Preston thought Hannah needed a little Christmas cheer because he decorated her with red and green ribbon. Hannah thought it was funny! She just kept smilin.
Both of the kids have colds and they aren't the happiest kids these days. Well, Hannah is so stuffy but she keeps smiling. Preston whined most of the day. He just didn't know what he wanted and kept throwing tantrums. I feel bad for them.

30 Day Shred


So, I started a new workout that I'm totally excited about. I started last week and I am feeling GREAT! Jillian is the trainer from the Biggest Loser and she is kick butt! I was doing a ball workout and walking and it just wasn't enough for me. I'm so obsessed with this workout I started doing it twice a day. My housework suffers sometimes but to me, it's worth it. I want my pre-baby body back and I mean PRE as in PRE-Preston! And I'm gonna get it! No stopping me! I think I've lost the most in my arms so far but my waist is definitely getting smaller!! YAY! I lost 4.5 lbs in 5 days. HIGHLY recommend this workout to anyone.

Lights



Last night we went with some of our friends to a cactus garden that had a cool light display. Preston really loved the lights. He just wanted to run and run and run. It was a lot of fun. Then our friends came over for hot chocolate. It got us a little more into the Christmas spirit.

Big brother




Well, this little photo shoot started OK....but didn't exactly end well. Preston got sick of sitting by his sister for like 30 seconds and started poking at her. Hannah ended up with a bloody lip. Oh I guess that's what brothers do!!!
My mom bought them these cute matching jammies...how much do I love PJ's??? Ha ha. They are getting closer and closer in size!! They wear the same size diapers...TWOS!!!!!

Finally finished!


It seems like I've been working on Hannah's stocking for forever but I finally finished it. I think it turned out pretty cute!
This is the one I made last year for Preston.

Preston is into EVERYTHING lately. He loves to pull the books and DVD's out. When he's done with that he moves on to the kitchen. He loves the tupperware stuff. Yesterday he went so far as to removing all the pots and pans and cookie sheets and well...you name it, he pulled it out.

Hannah is getting so big. She smiles all the time. I got the kids these cute Christmas PJ's. Preston's are exactly the same but they are blue and green. I love them. I love the jammies that have the tight bottoms...their little diaper bums look so cute in them! Yes, I shopped on black friday and got some sweet deals! Including these pajamas. My friend, Jami and I went to Toys R Us at 5:30 and man was it crazy! But, it was fun for us to go out.
