Everyday over and over again

Time doesn't seem to go by for me at all when I'm battling the endless cycle of laundry, meals and cleaning because it is pretty monotonous. But in reality time has been flying by. I've tried to do one thing different for Brigham (and my sanity) each day whether it be pull out some playdough, make a snowman or just play a game. Brigham is attempting to say a lot more of what is on his mind which is really fun. I love seeing pictures trigger memories he has and remind him of someone or something. He love categorizing people and animals as good guys and bad guys.
He walked up to me one morning and said "mommy pretty" even though I was in my pjs and hadn't had a shower and felt far from it which made me feel like crying.
I can tell Sarah can't wait to express what she is thinking to me too. I love the expressions she makes when she's "talking". She can make the cutest pout in the world when she is sad and she has the sweetest little smile! She rolled over for the first time yesterday. Oh how I wish I could freeze time and keep these guys little and my to do list checked off!






I caught an elusive Sarah smile!

This captures Brigham's personality perfectly.


One of those things to I do to break up the monotony- make goodies! This is a cherry chocolate cake slathered in warm chocolate sauce with whipped cream on top. I've got to do that again!

Sarah's Blessing

Sarah Jane had her baby blessing on Sunday. It was really special to see Sarah blessed by Matt and have lots of family there to share it with us. I love hearing about all of the potential our little baby girl can live up to! Sarah looked beautiful in her dress. She was more interested in trying to eat her dress than look beautiful!
