A bit of a catch up....

March has kind of been a slow month with not a lot of things to blog about.  But there have been a few fun things going on.

Connor's cute little school class was in the newspaper.  He has a fabulous teacher, Miss Weight.  She stresses reading so much.  They read so much in the month of February that's what the hearts are for behind them.  Connor's reading has just soared!  He is one of the top readers in his class and gets to bring home chapter books for his nightly reading.  I am so proud of him.  In all of his testing he is above average and is just doing so wonderfully.  I am so proud of him.

Macie is also doing fabulous at school.  She is above average in her testing as well.  She frequently brings home 95%-100% tests.  I am so dang proud of my kiddos!!

I just thought this pic was cute of my 3 cute girls.

Callie is addicted to Popsicles!  I can't imagine how many more we will go through once summer hits!

A couple Saturdays ago Ty took the kids up to the lakes above Fillmore.  They played in the snow and had a fun time.  Then he took them to the park.  Mckenna LOVES swings and slides and every time she sees one she has to say can we go slide!

Callie's 1st Official Haircut

When Callie was around 8ish month I gave her a little trim myself.  She finally had her first official haircut the end of February.  She did pretty well.  She sat on my lap and was wiggly but that's to be expected!  I was a little sad to have it cut, but the sides were longer than the back and it needed to be evened out.  She really didn't have much cut off, and we gave her some bangs!  So here are some before pics:

                                           
                                                        Mom what are you doing??!!

And here are the after pics!  She is combing her own hair.  It looks really cute and I love her bangs.  By the way it was super hard to get these before and after pics.  This kid does not hold still!

Connors Teeth

We had a dental adventure on Friday.  Connor is my super gaggy kid.  He had a couple cavities and when our regular dentist tried to fix them Connor gagged so much that they couldn't do it.  The dentist thought it would be best for us to take him to be sedated so that we could keep our dental office a positive place.

So on Thursday afternoon Connor, Callie, Ty, and I went to Cedar City.  We did some shopping and ate Panda.  Yum!  Connor had a fun evening and was super excited to sleep in  hotel.  He has had a super wiggly front tooth for a few weeks now and we kept telling him he needed to pull it out or the dentist would.  He finally let me pull it out Thursday night.  He looks absolutely adorable and the tooth fairy found him!

Connor couldn't eat or drink anything after midnight.  We got up Friday morning and headed over to the dentist, his appointment was 8am.  We went to Cedar View Pediatric Dentist office and it was decorated so cute and child friendly.  They weighted him and then they took him back to see the dentist for a little check up.  Then he came out and drank some medicine to help him sleep.  He started feeling sleepy after about 10 minutes.  The nurse came out and picked him up and he hugged her and had this huge cheesy grin on his face!  It was funny.

He was probably back there about 25 minutes and they came and said we could come back.  The dentist said that he slept through the whole thing.  He also said that he is one of the gaggiest kids he has ever seen.  He was even gagging in his sleep.  They ended up filling 2 cavities and putting a cap on one.  When we walked in he was just starting to wake up.  He was super groggy and was kind of crying.  I picked him up and started carrying him out and he threw up on my shoulder.

Then we walked out to the car. He was crying the whole way and was saying monster, monster.  It was so sad.  It made me feel so bad.  Then we buckled him in and he told Tyson that he was the king of the monsters.  Then we started driving and he was still pretty out of him.  He was telling me that he was the king of the penguins and that he was the king of the giraffes.  He mentioned being king of the penguins several times.  It was so dang hilarious.  Then he was flapping his arms and saying he was a flappy bird.  Ty and I were laughing so had.  I recorded him on my phone but the dang thing didn't work.  I was so mad.

Then he was obsessed with his hands.  He kept saying he had 84 fingers and he would just study his hands.  He told me I had 4 eyes and 2 phones.  It was so funny so see him so out of it.  When he stared coming more out of it we asked him what he remembered and it was nothing!  

I am glad he was able to have a positive dental experience but it cost way to much money.  His brushing habits are making a major change!  He has sure been gung ho about it though.

We had a fun night with him though and a hilarious morning!

Panties for 3 weeks!!!!!

I am finally happy to announce that Mckenna has been diaper free during the day for 3 weeks!  I am soooo happy and seriously never thought the day would come.  She just didn't care!  She has been doing really great.  I am so proud of her!

Here she is with The Little Mermaid and King Triton she got to pick when she pooped in the potty.  We are still working on that but so far she hasn't had any accidents in her panties.

And for fun here is Callie modeling Mckenna's panties.  She loves to pick a pair to wear when Mckenna does!

Connor turns 7!!

Connor's birthday was on Saturday this year.  For some reason my children think they need to open up a "morning" present.  Connor's was the camo John Deere hat he is wearing.  

In the afternoon we had a little family party.  Connor got super spoiled!  He had asked Santa for a xbox for Christmas and he didn't get it.  But his dad and I came through and got it for him.  He was so excited, surprised, and happy!  He also got a couple games, another controller, and a Green Bay Packer hat.

Connor had a nerf cake this year.  Jenny did an amazing job!  Well he saw it he said whoa awesome!  It was super cute and it tasted as good as it looked!

I am so grateful to have Connor as my son.  He is such a good, kind, smart boy.  I cannot believe he is 7!  Happy Birthday buddy!  I love you so much!!!!

Super Random!

So I wanted to post some pics I've taken on my phone. They are cute but super random!

Here are some of Mckenna and Callie playing.

Callie eating and enjoying herself in our bed at the hotel!

Mckenna started doing Callie's hair one night.  She loved it.  She had oodles of flowers in her hair!

Callie our little climber!

Mckenna, Callie, and I went and had lunch with my mom at work last week.  All Kenna wanted was this chocolate pie!

Family Home Evening fun!

Callie absolutely adores Hank!  She says Hi everytime she sees him and waves wildly.  She kisses him and hugs him.  It is so sweet!

Mckenna loves her princess dressups!

In December I got to go to Macie's class and help with a Christmas party  It was alot of fun.
