a whole lot of january

january was pretty great

other than some colds and fevers

we had fun

i gave the kiddies some rides around the house in the laundry cart

they loved it and told me how strong i am :) 

 helper henry on the job

he spills things on the floor and cleans them up for you

yes, he's for hire

 eleanor's little hand sneaking a cookie

scooters and trikes around the house all day every day

 serenading me with eleanor's toy instrument

hot

 this doesn't happen very often anymore

 i love that these three have each other

 noah brushing hazel's hair while she read us scriptures

could they be any sweeter?

 eleanor helping keep cosmoprof neat and tidy

 enjoying warm weather and the last of the snowman

 they like to attack me

if i look scared it's because i was

 just a couple of boys sharing a stool, being adorable

 pig pile on dad

 family pictures before church aren't really happening now that it's at 9am

but here's me and hen and a blur of olive

 eleanor loves her fake glasses

i guess she takes after noah

 we love to watch henry hang on the treadmill

it's so funny

 homework twins

 just a really good dad reading his kids a story

 henry tested out sitting at the counter

he's a fan

 cute baby keeping me company while i sewed

 valentines dresses and bow ties for the kiddies

 olive got a little too creative with the bunk beds 

i disassembled them right after this 

before someone got seriously hurt

 making cookies with his helpers

 sweet hazel wrote me this letter

 she thought we were so fancy matching our shoes, coats and purses

fun at DI 

 hazel finished the puzzle we got her for Christmas with minimal help

 the kids love having the missionaries over for dinner

especially when they share a fun visual message

 i took these two to storytime at the library

 olive started ballet again and LOVES it

 cutest little cheesy boy

and eleanor avoiding the mamarazzi 

 olive trying to entice others to try her new favorite food

 michael being a great dad making eleanor's dreams come true

by dancing with her at the school carnival

this stinker got himself kicked out of nursery on sunday...twice!

he's really in to hair pulling and shoving lately...oops!!

 hazel lost her 3rd tooth in january and wanted a reply from the tooth fairy regarding some questions she'd asked in a letter

the tooth fairy responded!! 

noah and olive dancing their way through walmart

 henry tried taking his doggy on a walk

 i made challah

holla!

 michael won tickets to the kids expo

it was kind of lame but the kids had fun

 michael got to take these cute girls to church last sunday

while the rest of us stayed home sick

aren't they the cutest?

here's hoping to a healthier february
