Easter Sunday

My mom got Keely her Easter dress this year, so I didn't end up making one. So Shawn and I decided that we needed new church clothes as well. I think it is the perfect time of year to get new church clothes. We were one smokin family at church I must say. Haha I am just kidding. Keely looked so cute in her dress, and I just started putting pig tails in her hair, which made her even cuter. She got the idea of looking for her easter eggs at Grandma Nelson's.

Isn't he so handsome? I had a hard time getting Keely to look at me.
Shawn did a better job getting her to smile for the camera.

Isn't she such a cute little bunny. :)

Finding her eggs.Putting them in her basket. Looking at her prizes.

I am so grateful for the wonderful family that Shawn and I have. We are so blessed I can't even describe. I hope everyone had a good Easter Sunday. :)

House Full of Girls

My sister Kelli asked me to watch her girls while she left for a day to help with her stake trek, and so we had a house full of girls last week. Hailey and Addison spent the night on Wednesday and played all day on Thursday. We had a lot of fun. Keely had the most fun I would have to say. She loved having friends over to play with and to entertain her. Mom gets boring sometimes I think. Hailey and Addison were so good. They really are good little girls. They never complained about nothing to do in my small little house. Here are some pictures.....

Keely loved laying on Hailey's pillow pretending to sleep.

Hailey was getting frustraed that Keely took a liking to her braids.She also loved carrying Keely, and Keely thought it was so funny.I really like this picture of Keely snugly close to Hailey watching TV. If you look close you can see Addison got a hold of a marker and colored Keely's foot.

After those couple of night, I don't know how Shawn would do if we had all girls. He needs a boy to wrestle with. They sure were fun to have around though.

Here she comes!

So Keely is finally walking. Wahoo!!! She started about 2 weeks ago, I know I am a little behind in my posts. It is so fun to see her walk around. Everytime she falls she makes this little grunt noise, it's so funny. Walking also makes her look so much bigger and taller. Anyway, that is all I wanted to say. Later Alligator!

Rebellion

So my friend Amber tagged me, and I told Shawn that I wouldn't do the tagging thing if I started up a blog (he doesn't like them for some reason), so hopefully he won't see this post. Haha I know I am a rebel huh? It's kind of fun. :)


7 Random things about me
1. I love love love to sleep. That includes going to be at night early and taking naps. I don't get to take very many naps, but when I do, I cherish it.
2. I love to learn about things. I wish that I could go to school right now, because I just like to study and be in a classroom setting. When I was in college, I would read my textbooks beyond what the teacher assigned, because I would find them so interesting. When Shawn is done with school, then it will be my opportunity to finish my degree.
3. I am a list maker. I am constantly making list of what things I need to do. Shopping lists, chore list, work list, ect. I think I do it to keep me organized but Iit also gives me great pleasure to cross things off. It makes me feel like I am accomplishing things.
4. I love paper and office supplies. When I was little I asked my mom to get me paper and pencils and office stuff for Christmas. I was so excited to get a big storage thing of all kinds of supplies.
5. I have been on a lot of different diets, not that I wanted to lose weight necessarily, but because I just want to eat a certain thing all the time. For example, I have been on an ice cream and milk diet. In high school I would eat a lot of ice cream, wait I still do, so maybe I am on the diet still? On my milk diet, I drank about 80 oz of milk a day. Haha, that was a mistake though. I thought I was pouring the milk into an 8 oz glass when it was a 16 oz glass. We went through a lot of milk.
6. Two years ago I had foot surgery due to fallen arches. I had shin splints all the time because of it. My shin splints are gone, but my feet hurt all the time. I wish I never got the surgery, because I am always in pain. I get all excited about going running and working out, and then I dont, because the just the thought of running on them hurt.
7. I am a sucker for romantic movies, or just anything romantic; books, movies, tv series, ect. To name a few of my favorite, Pride and Prejudice, Emma, Man from Snowy River, and North and South.
