Our Little Man is 7!

Wow! Cooper turned 7 last week. The other day I was looking at his baby and toddler pictures and I can't believe he is now 7! We had a fun family dinner and party to celebrate.

Here he is opening a new Wii game from Grandpa and Grandma Hartman before he headed off to school!

He (thanks to uncle Josh) really wanted caffeine-free Mt. Dew for his dinner

Camden was enjoying it too

Lots of enthusiasm for something his sister had already told him she was giving him!

His cake had Indiana Jones legos on it and snakes (gummy worms) in the dirt (oreos)


Playing Nerf dart tag

My sister was so excited to play it!

Our funny Birthday Boy!

Look Who's 6 Months Old!

We love you Macey Jane!

She is sick and teething. Poor baby!

Merry Christmas

Another Christmas season is upon us bringing all the craziness and fun. We have been busy with TaVaci concert, ballet review, family gathering, shopping, baking, gift giving, watching Christmas movies and reading Christmas books. Even Macey has joined in and was "Baby Jesus" yesterday at church because I was asked to do a program in R. S. as Mary.

Wishing you all a healthy, peaceful, and joyous Christmas!

Pictures done by Justin and Natalie Holmgren. Thanks guys!

Is life passing by at the speed of light for you too? We are busy with everyday life and a little fun in between!

Halloween

Against my better judgement I'm posting this picture because I'm taking one for the team. It is the only one that Brooklyn smiled in and we will forget the fact that I look stoned.
Halloween was awful. I had envisioned, for a year, the wonderful "Wizard of Oz" family we would be. Sickness and costume issues and emotions got in the way. Brooklyn cried the whole night, I did not end up green, Macey's "Toto" costume ended up grayish/purplish when dyed, and 3 of the 4 were starting or ending a sickness. So Happy Halloween!

P.S. Brooklyn had ruby red slippers but wouldn't you know, they didn't make it into the picture!

Now I'm praying for the sickness to end because we are onto #4 getting sick and she is not a happy baby. Croup and an upper respiratory infection. I'm sure we've paid for our Dr. to buy at least a new car. ARGHHHH!
Here's hoping for a better post next time!

Macey's Blessing

Macey Jane was blessed last Sunday. Troy's parents and most of my family were able to be there and it was a beautiful day.

She's getting so chubby and cute and I want her to stay like this forever!

School Days

Well we now have two children in school. Cooper started 1st grade last week and Brooklyn started preschool this week! They both love it so far!
