Spring training

Dev jumping into the foam pit.

Ari's proudest moment this week: touching the white tape on the rope at gymnastics. She climbed a little higher that this, I just took the picture too early.

Star struck

Yesterday we drove down to Tucson to see the BYU gymnastics team at U of A. Ashley's sister, Raquel (who is extremely talented!!!), is on the team and she also happens to be the girls favorite celebrity. They are always talking about her, and asking to watch videos of her. When it came time to talk to her, last night, they were way too nervous.

While we were in Tucson we went to the International Wildlife Museum. We didn't really know what to expect but it was awesome. Our kids LOVED it!! After that we went to Oregano's and that was a huge hit. We have never taken our kids there before.

Benson

Lately it seems like I have posted way more pictures of the girls and not of Benson. So here is a post entirely of Benson. Benson is 18 months and doing great (if he could just learn how to walk).

Both Benson and Canon look so excited to get their picture taken.

Water Balloons

The girls wanted to surprise Nate with something when he got home. They decided water balloons would be the perfect surprise, especially since it has been so warm.

He didn't even see it coming!

Since we have been home...

Everyone has gotten sick, at least twice. Honestly, Devy is the easiest to take care of when she is not feeling well. She will lay in bed all day eating pretzels and crackers and watching Swan Princess. When she has to throw up (whether it is day or in the middle of the night) she runs to the bathroom by herself and takes care of business and she doesn't complain. She really is amazing. Benson just throws up on you without warning. The night is THE WORST! Ari needs an audience and Nate just needs a lot of attention.



Benson is still always dirty. It is amazing to me how small he is and the types of messes he can make. He is so destructive but so fun. He is still having seizures and the doctors still do not know what is really going on with that. Hopefully we will find out soon.

Nate is still in school. He has been home more this year and we are loving that. The kids love to comb and put bows and clips in Nate's hair. Benson even got in on the action here.

Lastly, we are expecting another little one. I am due May 18th hopefully this baby goes to term. So far everything looks great so we will see what happens. Before Christmas we found out that the baby was a boy. Since we have been back from Montana we have discovered that it is a girl!!! I have had 4 ultrasound all saying girl. We are very excited for her to come. I didn't have a picture of the baby or of me so I just posted another picture of Ari.

Cabin!!!

This year, over Christmas break, we went up to Montana and the cabin. We had a great time and it has made us miss the snow even more!

I don't know how much Benson really liked being all bundled up.

Christmas Time

Here are a few pictures from the past couple days.



It hardly snows where my parents live... but we were lucky and it snowed a few inches. So we were able to go sledding!

Halloween

Canon and Benson both went as ducks. Unfortunately this about the only time they had their costumes on because they got too hot and sweaty.

I don't really have a great picture of Ari"s costume. She went as Taylor Swift.
Devy dressed up as Tiana from Princess and the Frog, but with pink hair.
Here are the girls going to there school party.
