The Month of January

The month started with a shout out to the Broncos. We all got some new BSU wear for Christmas. The girls were so excited to wear their shirts to school and to watch the game. The game was awesome. GO BRONCOS!

Ellie made this body at school. It is so cute. It has all of her body parts; heart, lungs, stomach and her spine is on the back. One of my favorite things they have made this year.

Last weekend we went to Pocatello to celebrate Jackson's first b-day. The highlights of the trip were swimming at the hotel and playing at the gym where Jackson had his party.

Logan LOVES the pool I think we will be spending a lot of time there this summer. He cried when he had to get out. The next morning at breakfast he just kept running over the the door trying to get in so he could swim. He is a fish.

El thought it was summer and she would just lay out by the side of the pool :) Since the water wasn't 90 degrees, Ellie preferred swimming in the hot tub. She may not look like me, but we have a lot in common.

Bailey lost another tooth while we were at the pool. She was a little scared of the blood. The tooth fairy did find her at the hotel. She was very happy about this.

The Birthday Party

This is a lot higher than it looks. Drew was brave he jumped right off.

Ellie climbed up, but didn't want to jump once she got up there. Good thing they had a slide. She did love playing on all of the gymnastic stuff though.

I tried to catch Bay in the action of jumping but I just caught the landing

Logan enjoyed all of the trampolines

There's the b-day boy

Happy Birthday Jackson!

I took this picture of Ellie on Friday because I felt horrible that I forgot to send her teddy bear with her to school on Friday for teddy bear (side note: I feel as though the teacher could have called me and told me to bring it this was a big deal and she knows I am home, I know its my own felt but still). Anyway I felt awful she had to use of the classrooms stuffed toys. So she asked me if I would take a picture of her pushing Emily Bennett. I was more than willing. This is the first shot I took, there was sun coming in so I told her to back up and I would take another one. In the meantime I dropped the camera and the zoom was out. It landed right on the front and totally smashed the front of it in. I don't think it is fixable. Friday was a bad day!

This picture actually turned out cute I should have just left it alone!

I am finally caught up on blogging. MIRACLE. But now that the camera is broken and I don't know when I will be getting a new one, I hope I don't fall behind again.

Mother of the Year

I am only making this post so if Logan does have some sort of permanent injury he can refer back to this for the exact date that I let him fall on his head!! He fell from our bathroom counter today onto the floor. I told the girls to watch him while I ran down to get their breakfast and then they could eat while I bathed him. Well, Bay got distracted and wanted to know what was for lunch and Ellie's tummy was just so hungry..........so result......Logan on the floor of the bathroom. Yep I am great!! I can not be mad at the girls because they are children I am suppose to be a responsible adult. I know it happens to everyone and I shouldn't beat myself up about it but I still feel horrible and I am still up at 2:00 a.m. watching him sleep for fear that he may suddenly have some ill effect after 17 hours, stranger things have happened, I am convinced he is going to fine (I think) the doctor thought so and he is acting like his perfect normal self. I am mad at myself for ignoring that prompting that I always pray I will get, well I got it and I ignored it, lovely! Well I guess my mother of the year award will be taken away yet again. I am so very grateful for a healthy and resilient baby.
