Josh, Tiffany & Co.

I can't get the movie to work, but maybe later :( A little 43 second window into my life! Pretty soon they both won't be able to fit in the bath like this! Talking on her phone ;) At least they are wearing helmets :)

A blog post?! Yes.  I finally have two girls sleeping with a few minutes to spare. My pictures from the past couple months are somewhere else, but I chose these few, because my current life is consumed in motherhood. The good, the bad, and the ugly.

I started this blog when Logan was 3 months old. I posted about his first tooth , and here I am posting about him losing it :) We were eating some pizza and watching a movie on Friday night. Suddenly he says, "WHERE IS MY TOOTH?!" We looked all over, but we decided he must have swallowed it. His tooth has been loose awhile, so we have been talking about him "loosing" it. He turned to us after we couldn't find it and says. "I really did lose it, I guess." Ha! Comedian. Lucky for him the Tooth Fairy still came for the fist time to our home :) And a couple of fan pics :) Tessa is saying "BYU"

Dear Logan, You started Kindergarten today. You were so excited! I can already tell you are going to be such a good student and you will do well in school, because you already love learning. You often think of others and spent time explaining to your sisters that you were going to be in school and they would miss you. I don't think you were nervous at all, in fact I was more nervous than you. Yesterday we were getting ready and I made you a sign to hold for a picture on the first day. You wanted to make your own sign to hold. You are a project-minded guy. Last week you worked on making a cardboard transformer costume, based on a video of one we watched together. You usually don't like to paint when I ask, but one day you decked out in a paint-shirt and got all the paint out, and painted your costume. You are a go-getter. I know you will love Kindergarten. You will make friends and learn and grow. You are so big and just amazing. I am so lucky I get to be your mom. Lov...

With Logan starting school soon our lives will never quite be the same. And most of me is wishing he was going to preschool again. Too bad he is so big, maybe I could sneak in one more year if he were average-sized.  Two two-year-olds is a challenge, but life is full of challenges. This is just our current one. They are cute, just trouble-makers. We had to install a chain on our front door. They figured out how to escape, I also wouldn't mind if their fine-motor skills were lagged a bit behind. It is amazing to realize how big my kids are, crazy big. And wanting to be independent. 

 Apparently, I have been away from blogger for awhile :) New formatting and everything! We went to the Balloon Festival this morning. It is early, but oh my goodness. Just look at the beautiful pictures. Tessa was a bit scared for awhile, but she settled down when the balloons got into the air. This was also the first year Josh was invited to the Freedom Festival Gala, which was super-fun. We got all dressed up, and we didn't even take pics. Rats. I am grateful to my dear friend Sheri. I wore her high school prom dress for the 3rd time :) We sure do love the 4th of July around here.  Upon uploading pictures I decided to add a few others. Bonnie and I spent a day canning her home-grown cherries in the form of jam. It was a lot of work, but fun to spend the day doing it with a friend :) And luckily I have a mother-in-law who let us use her home and tools for the occasion! Logan helped with the cherry-pitting. He was just the hei...
