My Favorite Toys.

Jared is getting so big so quickly! He loves playing in his walker and he loves his rattle! This is kind of cool because these were Elizabeth's favorite toys when she was this little!!!

Our Mouse Trap!

Recently we discovered this winter that we had a small mouse.. yeah I know ... I hate mice! Then we also discovered that we had a Black Widow Spider problem. So we did the humane thing and got a Mouse/Spider Trap.. her name is Satasha, she was given to us by a friend. She is a big help! so far it is March and the spiders are coming out and she is getting rid of them before the girls see these scary spiders! EEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW!!!!! She is so lazy sometimes.. this was one night I found her waiting in the bathroom sink while I was in the shower, she tends to follow me around all day! But when we need her she comes to the resuce!

Cotton Candy

Here we are at the circus during intermission. Jared thought that it would be great to have some cotton candy for dessert after a wonderful dinner at the circus of hotdogs, french fries and of course chicken! So here are the girls with there sticky and sweet cotton candy... For them this was the best part of their meal, for Jared it was a matter of getting unstuck of cotton candy!

Elephant Ride

So we took the kids to the circus while it was here in little old Farmington... It was not that great of an experience! The elephants were tired and irritable through the entire ride. This elephant in particular was the one that the girls ended up riding. Right before they got on the elephant started to stomp and make all these loud noises at his masters, almost like he was saying "I am done I am not doing this tonight!!! " Once the girls got on he started swaying and stomping violently. Luckily the girls thought it was fun rather than scary! I am definately happy that they had an experience of a lifetime, but this is a once in a lifetime deal... no more elephant rides for my girls!

Big Boy Jared!!!

What an exciting couple of weeks we are having, watching our son growing up so quickly, I feel like I have lost all sense of time, everytime I look at Jared I cant believe how much he has grown. I love spending time with him playing on the floor and making funny faces at each other. It is a real treat to watch him eat his dinner every night and to help him stand and crawl and roll over! I think it finally hit me that he wasnt going to be my little boy forever when I placed him in his sister's little couch and he snuggled up under her blankie and grabbed a hold of her squishy red Al! He looks so grown up in this chair. I left him in it for about thirty minutes and came back to find him watching SpongeBob Squarepants! He is SO big...

Grandparents!

Here we have Grandpa Chase and Jared all dressed up to go to church. There is Grandma Chase with her grandkids. The dresses that the girls are wearing were made by Grandma while she stayed here for the holidays, arent they the cutest dresses. Grandma was so proud to see her girls all dressed up in these dresses and the girls loved it! Thanks Grandma!

uncles, cousins and sisters!

There is Uncle Marc with Jared and then with all our kids. Then there is Uncle Levi with all the girls (ie. Liz, Jamie and Aubie) and little Jared!
