Road Trip

My parents went up to Rexburg, Idaho to pick up my sister Rachel from school at BYU-I.  It's the break between semesters and she wanted to come down for her week off so I asked if Kenzlee and I could tag along with them for a little road trip/kid break.  It was so much fun.  I had been looking forward to the trip for awhile and it was also fun to go back and visit Rexburg (where Matt and I met).  Rachel is also staying in Royal Crest Apartments (where I stayed when I was there), so it was a fun little trip down memory lane!

Here is the picture of Rachel and I when I lived in Royal Crest (2004)...

...and here is the picture of Rachel and I now that she is living in Royal Crest (2013), that's 9 years.

Mikelle likes to do her own hair for school now.

Three Months!

My little three month old!  She has been sleeping really well lately.  She was sleeping a good 5-6 hours in her bed straight at night and then lately she has slept 7 hours straight.  I know it's not me because I'm doing the same thing I did with all the other kids, she is just an awesome baby.  She is normally a pretty happy baby who smiles easily, but as you can see from the pictures, she was not smiling much that day.  She loves when you talk and sing to her and the kids have loved being able to make her smile.  She is starting to show a little interest in toys although she can't hold them yet.  She is the PERFECT last baby to have.  Everyone always tells me what a good baby she is.  She is starting to try to grab my hand to put it in her mouth, so maybe she is teething.  

The only smile.  Mikelle got it out of her.

Happy Easter

The Saturday before Easter we went to The Provo Beach Resort and had fun at their big Easter Event.
