Mission Reunion

We had a great time on Saturday! All of Tom's mission companions came over to our house and we ate Mexican food- Posole! It was really good- thanks Mike! Daiana made her famous Tres Leches- everybody loved it, I was so happy to keep the leftover's which I had to hide from Tom cuz it's his favorite...hehehe!- Thanks Daiana!
It was really fun to see everyone! I'm always amazed at how much these guys love each other- Tom considers them like brothers and it really is neat that they've kept in touch and that we still do things together even after so many years! Tom always says, he can't imagine not having served and he wouldn't know what his life would be like without his mission buddies- Dov, Moff, Spring, Howells, Hayes, Geve, Kins, Ames, and Baugh! I love all the wifes- they are all great! Love you girls!

(Here's a few of us- Mike & Patty, Jared & Daiana, Ed & De & Izzy, Tom & Laura & Andy & Baby Sean...I really wish we would have taken a picture with all of us- we'll have to do it next time for sure!

(Here's Bridgette with her 2 adorable kids- Owen and Ella- Andy's little girlfriend!)
The kids had a fun time too.

(...and Daiana and her cute little baby girl- Leila)

I didn't take any more pics so if any of you have some- send them to my e-mail!
Thanks everyone for a great time!

Happy Easter!

I've been meaning to post these pictures for several days now, but as many of you other mom's know, one thing leads to another and before you know it the day is over and you didn't get half the things done...so...Happy Easter!

We really had a great time with the boys and my family.

The boys each got Easter baskets with tons of goodies. Sean didn't really understand what all the fuss was about but Andy was ecstatic, especially since he got Spiderman Easter eggs! They look so cute in their pj's- I love it!

Andy was so excited about the Easter egg hunt...he ran around the house looking and every time he found one he screamed- "Another One" and would grin from cheek to cheek.

This was Sean and Andy after their Egg Hunt.

Here's Andy showing off his creation!

I dressed the boys super cute for Easter...everyone had something to say about Sean's outfit, I took pictures, but Tom mistakenly erased them from my camera, so I almost cried...but that's OK!
After all it was a wonderful Easter! We dyed eggs, had an egg hunt, Easter Baskets, spent time with the family, and remembered Our Savior!

Clever Andy

I have to share the cutest thing Andy said to me tonight...We were snuggling in bed and I was telling him how much I love him and how special he is...when I say to him, "Andy you're my big 4 year old!"
and he responds, "Yeah and I'm going to be your big 5 year old."
"I know you're growing so big so fast and that makes Mommy so happy and sad".
He asks, "Why?"
I respond, "Because you're going to grow up so fast and you won't be my little boy anymore".
Then he looks at me and says what he thinks is a perfect solution, "Mommy, don't worry,... I won't eat my food, and that way I won't grow". I couldn't help but crack up and think how clever these little guys are. Then he turns to me gives me a big hug and says, "Don't worry I'll always be your little boy, forever and ever!"
I just love that little Andy and as much as we sometimes want them to stay little I know someday he'll grow and have his own little family...for now I'm just happy knowing that he's all mine! and that I get to hug him and love him whenever I want!

Birdy Bath!

I'm sure Sean will be super embarrassed by these pictures when he's older but I couldn't help but share...I was washing his bum in the bathroom sink after one of those that spreads all the way up to their necks.....
and he was soooooo relaxed under the water that I grabbed the camera and took a few pics! It was so cute he could have laid in there for hours without a care in the world!

I love the way he curled one little leg in the sink & spread the other one.

and what do you think of that cute little baby bum...?

Daddy Love!

I love these pictures of my 3 boys...especially the ones of Tom tickling Sean and making him laugh!

Tommy is such a great dad! He loves to play with the kids...give them hugs and kisses, tickles, and always lets them know how special they are and how much he loves them!

Andy Playing Daddy!

This was super cute, and it made me laugh.
Andy was playing with Sean making him crack up...when he starts to take Sean's pants off "Mom I think Sean has peepee in his diaper". Then I see Andy running accross the room grabbing the diaper bag. He comes over and says "Mom I'm going to change Sean." I'm in total awe-are you kidding me? Then he starts the whole process, it was super funny and I couldn't believe it- he did everything perfectly! I guess I shouldn't be surprised he's seen the process a millions times, but I never thought he was capable.
