Preschool Fun

Hailey and her preschool friends: Rylan, Hailey, Madison, Ryan and Elise.

We made marshmallow art with toothpicks. They loved it. Hailey is loving preschool and being with her friends.

These cute kids have grown up a lot since we started back in September.

Playing outside for a break. (I not sure what she is doing).

Getting some energy out!

Little Girls Night Out

Hailey's friend decided to have a movie night in pj's with pillow pets! She was sweet enough to invite Ellie. A room full of little girls in their pj's. Let's just say it was loud and cute!

Putting on our silly faces!

Lilly, Ellie, and Hailey having a treat. Liz's (Taylor's mom) gave them gold coins that they could buy treats and get admission to the movie.

Just playing around.

Mmmmm......popcorn!

Lilly and Mya.

So not much moving watching going on. Most of the girls spent the evening playing in Taylor's room!! They were having a great time.

Hailey just playing. My girls thought it was so much fun that Sam and Dad could not come with us. It was just girls! I hope when they are big that just maybe every once in a while they will want to spend a girls night out together with their Mom!! Thanks Liz, for a great time!

Sickness hit the Eames'

While we were at my Parents for our last wedding (pictures to come) our kids got sick. We drove on a Thursday night. Everyone was fine. Got to my parents and put the kids down and then Sam woke up at Midnight. He had thrown up in his pack and play. Cleaned him up got him to calm down and put him down again. Then a couple hours later I heard him do it again. I picked him up and the poor guy was just limp. Cleaned him up again and put him down. Then about 4:30 a.m. Hailey came up stairs and said she had just thrown up. Cleaned her up and the mess and that little girl keep throwing up. By then she had nothing left. She did good however and make sure she made it to the bathroom. So we had such fun plans on Friday and the only well one was Ellie who talked her dad into taking her to the Ogden Treehouse. Luckily it was just 24 hours and by Saturday morning everyone was feeling better. It was such a blessing because that was the wedding day. We had a wonderful time with my family and were so happy to be part of Justin and Lindsy's big day!

Because we teach them to all share Ellie woke up Saturday night at midnight and had thrown up. Let's just say hers was by far the worse. I think it took me about 45 minutes to clean it up. We had to spring forward an hour and then on top of that we left around 4:30 a.m. so we could make it to church to hear our good friends son's farwell talk. Grandma said Ellie should take the bowl home with her.......wow how thankful I was for that bowl and that Ellie made it in the bowl. She held it the rest of the way home.....just in case.

We felt so bad that we brought this sickness with us. I think we washed about every towel and blanket at my parents. However, so many blessings. First, our van was spared any throw up. Second, no one was sick on Saturday. Third, neither David or I got sick. Fourth, we were able to be in the temple with our family and witness a sealing. The positives out weighed the negatives.

Random Pictures

I looked out the window the other day after sending the kids out to play and saw this. When I first saw them Sam had his head in Ellie's lap but by time I got my camera he was sitting up. How dang cute! Sam could not get off the swing so it was nice to know that he was not in the dirt! Ellie's love for reading is growing so much.....so fast!!

So the story is: David saw these pants and wanted to get them for Ellie and well she has been wanting to wear them forever but we didn't have anything that matched. I sort of found something she could wear with them. Ellie said everyone called her Hannah Montana all day. Yes, those are sandals. Some battles I choose not to fight. They are even too small.

Sam got this monkey for Christmas and loves it. I love it because it is a sentsy animal and smells so good. He loves to sleep with it...on top of his pillow pet. He is also in love with curious George and yes we even have a curious George stuffed animal. He looks so peaceful when he is asleep.

We really want Summer or at least Spring!!! Kids are made to go outside. Samuel will stand by the door and say, "Out, Out."

I love the look on his face in this picture. He is getting so big and starting to say so many words. The other day we were singing I love to see the Temple and I noticed he was doing something with his hands and then I realized they must sing that in Nursery and he was making a temple with his hands. How thankful I am for Nursery teachers and all those who spend time teaching my kids!!

Ellie's First Clogging Performance

Ellie has been clogging since September and finally had a performance. Well let's say they danced at a Rehab Center.....but she loved it. My camera was doing weird things so not the best picture and not the correct date.

Ellie is in the beginning class. Only a few of the classes performed. The younger ones.

Hailey and Ellie. Hailey kept saying, "Mom, what is this place?"

Lilly and Ellie. This is a cute friend in our ward who will clog with. I love these little girls!!

The video with just Ellie clogging is when they invited whomever wanted to clog to do some free style. Ellie came out. I looked at David what is she going to do. She told me after she was shy. I said no you were not. She was the only one in her class that came out. Enjoy!

Just Dance for Kids

We just recently bought Just Dance for Kids and we are really loving it. Hailey was playing with some friends and they were doing it together. It was so dang cute to watch. Lauren, Elsie, and Hailey. Lauren has her favorite dress up on and Hailey picked her outfit and wouldn't let me do her hair.
