Susy Snowflake

Madison had a dance recital Thursday night. She did such a good job even though she was really nervous. Luckily she got to do it twice because the first time they did it one of the girls was using the restroom and got left behind so they came out and did it again. By the second time she was foot loose and fancy free. She is definitely not like her mother when it comes to performing, she has a great time with it. Sorry about the video, we don't have the best camera and the stage was so bright that they turn into little glowing angels. Maddie almost right in the middle you can kind of see her red hair.

Graduation Dinner

Mike was able to pick where he wanted to go Monday night for Dinner. Every year we go downtown to see the Christmas lights on Temple Square. With having a small baby and it being really cold he picked his favorite restaurant called the Garden which happens to be on Temple Square. We got to see the lights out the window from the restaurant and it was the perfect way to see them. We did venture out for a quick minute to look at some of the Nativities but it did not take long for us to freeze and return back inside.

Congratulations Michael

It was a lot of fun for Michael to be a part of graduation and for us to watch him walk in graduation. We had a great day. Congratulations Michael!!!!

Yea daddy!!!!

The girls were so good, they enjoyed seeing Daddy walk and luckily we had Grandpa to take them out during the dull moments. Chloe enjoyed the back of her eyelids and the occasional snack. They did however think the music was to loud.

Graduation day.

This day was always only something that we could imagine. It always seemed so out of reach , so when the real thing came it did not seem real.

Graduation!!!!!

WE FINALLY MADE IT !!!!!!!!!!!!! As you all know Mike graduated from Weber State University last Friday Dec 12th. There are not words to describe how happy we are to be done with school. This will be the first time in our lives together that Michael will not be in school, that is just normal life for us. It is very weird to not have him in school, we feel like something is missing, we are both so set in the mind frame of school and what needs to be done. Mike walks around feeling like there is something he should be doing. It is a very weird feeling but it is all good. This is definitely a new phase of our lives. When we look back we are amazed at what we have been through there have been a lot of set backs and we made it though the long days of not being together the late nights and the early mornings and the 2 hour commute to Ogden and back. We made it to the last week with no car accidents (Ogden usually gets hit the worst with the bad weather) luckily it was just a fender bender. We know we have been blessed to have made it through it all. We are soooooo proud of Daddy. There have been so many times it would have been easier for him to have quit but has been so determined and sacrificed so much to reach this accomplishment. We are so grateful for him and his devotion to us and to making our lives better.

Christmas Program

We went to Madison's Christmas program for school last Thursday. She did such a good job. She knew every word and action. She has been such a good little performer lately.

Santa Baby

Hannah is horrified of Santa. If she sees a Santa of any kind fake or real you will see her headed the other direction. Uncle Adam says it might as well be spelled Satan. She does however love Santa Baby Chloe but hey who doesn't ??

Oh Christmas Tree

We had a great time as always getting a tree and decorating it. The girls had there new ornament that they had each picked out for this year and enjoyed looking at and hanging the ornaments from years past.

Can I hold her ???

Our day goes pretty much like this. Can I hold baby Chloe, Can I hold her again. Now can I hold her, I want to hold the baby. Her sisters cant get enough of her and we are glad for it .

Baby Chloe

We are always amazed at how as soon as our kids are born they fit right in and it is almost like the memory of them not being with us is gone. It has only been 3 weeks but we could not imagine life without her. Baby Chloe is doing well. She has been a good eater but true to our family she has not been packing on the pounds she is now just making her way up to the 7 pounds again. She is a very content baby. We are enjoying that before she picks up the attitude we know will arrive. As you can see for no reason other than we just think she is cute she gets her picture taken a lot.

A couple videos from the Hospital. Sorry they are dark. Didn't think to turn all the lights on.

So tired

Through this all Maddie and Hannah have been two peas in a pod. The other day we asked Maddie to go to bed but she didnt want to go up to bed if we were not going up to our room. We sent her anyway and when we went up to check on them this is how we found them.

Just being cute

First Bath at home

She wasn't to thrilled with the bath at first but after a few seconds she felt right at home. The girls were a lot of help and Hannah is very concerned about her umbilical cord she just say off, off.
