A lesson in brushing your teeth.

Through the spouse alliance at Marquette Ryan was asked to read a story to Lilly's preschool class about brushing your teeth. Truth be told I was going to do it but it just so happened that Ryan had that day off school. He is much better at this kind of stuff then me. Lilly loved showing her daddy off to her class. 
 Ryan is so fun and did different voices and everything!

I am so proud of my soon to be dentist husband.

Heart shapes sugar cookies

Every year growing up my mom made heart shaped sugar cookies around Valentines day. I love a good sugar cookie! This year Lilly asked to have a Valentine Party. At first I wanted to say no but then I thought why not? We kept it simple and just invited some friends over to decorate a cookies and to play. My girls loved having there friends over!





 Some of our friends that came were Vienna and Miles Morgan. Madie, Kenzie Poulsen. Chole Cantu. Jada Christensen. Sunday Crandal. There moms all joined them as well. I have been so lucky to live by such great women. I really am going to miss living so close to everyone.

Girls night

While Ryan was gone at a scout camp the gils and I decided to have a girl night. Lilly always wants her hair to be curly so I decided to put a bunch of braids in it so that it would be wavy in the morning. Kate thought Lilly looked silly and wanted to be just like her.
 We spent the evening doing hair, eating popcorn and watching movies. I so love my girls. They are so fun to hang out with. I also love that Lilly and Kate are such good little friends. Although they fight at times they mostly get a long. They both have great imaginations and love to play together.

Emmy 6 month's

My little Emma bean is 6 months. I can't believe it. She really is such a happy baby. She loves rolling around on the floor. Scooting/crawling to get whatever she wants. She only seems to fuss when she needs something. Once her need is met she is as happy as can be again. I only wish she was a good sleeper. Oh well you can't have it all. We are so glad she joined our family!



Emma's six month stats: Length 25 1/4" (Percentile 25%) Weight 15 lb 12 oz (Percentile 40%)

Random January

We took January pretty easy after having such a busy Christmas season. All the girls and Ryan ended up being sick in January. Ryan got it the worst. He ended up having pneumonia. He was so tired and weak. It seemed he would get better for a few days and then relapse. On top of that he could a sinus infection. The poor guy just can't seem to get better.
Poor Kate would get so tired during the day. She does not like to nap. One afternoon she snuck a binky out of her room. I told her to take it back to her room. A few minutes later I found her on the stairs asleep. 
 Little Emmy has turned into the happiest babies. She is all smiles. She loves to have a toy and sit and watch you. This morning I was folding laundry and she was happy to play with my measuring tape and watch. 

 She plays so well on the floor with toys. WHen she is tired sometimes she just rolls over and falls asleep right in the middle of all the action. 
 Here she is at almost 6 months. 
 The girls loved the snow we got in January. It has been a very mild winter here. There has only been a few storms with enough snow for a snow man.
They made a pretty great one this day! 
 So happy to get her hands on something new.

 Kate just loves Emmy. I often find her in Emmy's room even when she should not be. Check out the tower kate made to be able to see Emmy. 
It is really starting to hit me that Ryan will be graduating this May. I can't believe he is finally going to be a dentist. Wow what a journey it has been. I am trying to just enjoy my last few month here in Wisconsin. 

Well happy January everyone.

Happy 9 years

This year on our anniversary we went and got pedicures together. Ryan was a very good sport and even enjoyed it I think. I love a good pedicure. 
This was our engagement photo. Crazy how young were were. 
I am so happy that I found Ryan. I can't image life with out him.

It seems as though every year we grow closer together. 
I can't wait to see where the next 9 years take us!

Ice Fishing

I love ice fishing with the family. This year we went to Utah lake and had a great time!
My sister in law Amber, Emmy and I.
 It was such a beautiful day.
 My brothers took good care of us. We even had a tent and a heater. 





 Emmy was such a good baby and even napped on the ice. 
 We caught lots of fish. 





 My brothers.
