Random pictures


Hyrum making funny faces with Audra(she looks mean doesn't she?)

One of my summer beauties taking a break from running in the sprinklers

Here Corynn is at school with the "share bag". Each week someone gets to take the share bag home and fill it with things that are special to them to help the other children get to know them. She's showing her 5 generation picture that I took of her as a baby with Hyrum, his mom, his grandmother, and greatgrandmother, pretty cooooool.
Corynn teaching her class about the letter "O"(no I didn't take the pictures, her teacher is fabulous and understands that mothers like to document everything and takes pictures of them every week and emails them to us)

Here we go again...

We've started the potty training process with my two year old. I'm tired of having two children in diapers. Corynn was already potty trained and getting her own drinks, fairly independent, when Alli was born. But because Audra was an "unexpected blessing", she and Allison are less than 2 years apart. So for the last 4 months, we've gone through I don't even want to guess how many diapers and well, I'm tired of buying diapers at 20 bucks a box X2.
So this morning I'm sitting on the edge of the tub next to Alli who is sitting on her little plastic throne...I'm dosing...then I'm startled when she yells, "Ta-da!!!, I did it Mommy!" So I immediately start cheering, "Yeah, your a big gir"......then I notice she's holding up her little finger showing me a huge booger that she had been laboring diligently to remove since she woke up. Not quite what I was hoping for but good job Alli.
