Time Out for Women

Thank you so much to my wonderful mother who knows just what I need sometimes. She flew Christine and I to Idaho to attend a woman's conference in Boise with her. She pampered us the entire weekend and the conference was so uplifting! I came home refreshed and ready to be a better wife and mother! I love you mom!
Just us girls at the conference.
We walked around the Boise temple one afternoon. Temple grounds are always SOOO beautiful!
Christine and I at the temple.

We drove out to Jake and Jessie's one day. They were'nt home so we took a picture and sent it to Jake. He replied that he was in Reno! Haha!

Stay at home Mommy

I LOVE the opportunity that I have to be a stay at home Mommy! I'm sad that I have to send Brookie and Jessie off to school everyday. Before you know it I will have to stay home with no little kidos to keep me company. I'm striving to cherish every at home day I have with my kids.

Lil Nic Nic turns 2

Our precious little baby is 2 years old! Everyone we meet just falls in love with Kaylee Nicole. She has an amazing vocabulary and talks so well for a 2 year old. She has a very high pitched loud voice. She demands attention! She knows all her colors and counts pretty well. Thanks to Dora she even throws in a few numbers in Spanish here and there. She loves the color pink and changes her clothes all the time. She goes through about 20 outfits a day. She loves sparkly and dresses. She loves lipstick! Her favorite thing is Dora. She loves Dora everything! She is definetly the baby of our family and everyone jumps to give her whatever it is she wants. Braden plays so well with her when the girls are at school. She is sweet with everyone in the family but her Brookie Boo is definetly her favorite. "Brookie do it" is a common phrase around our house. We love you so much our Nikki, Lil Nic Nic, Nikki Cole, Kaylee Nic. My little Kaylee Nicole!!!
