Our cute neighbor and babysitter that has known liv since she was a baby is in advanced sewing class at Alta High school and needed a model to make an outfit for. She measured Liv and made this adorable dress and shirt combo. Then we came to Alta at 9:30 am for a fashion show. Liv was so cute, she was posing and waving and when she did the walk on the tables, she blew a kiss at the end.
Liv loves Bailey...here she is playing with her hair waiting to go on.
Posing and Twirling.
At the end there was cookie refreshments to share. I gave one to Tyson and let him suck on it for a little bit but as soon as it looked like it was going to break apart I took it from him to give him small pieces and his lip curled out and he started this dramatic sob that was almost silent. He is just like his mommy, don't take our cookies away or we will be sad.
Today after Tyson woke up from his nap Liv poked her head in over his crib and was talking to him and making him giggle. Then she wanted to get in his bed with him so I turned on the light and somehow this led to both of them snuggling on the chair and being great posers for the camera. I love these pictures, they show so much of their personality!
Liv thought it would be fun to test Tyson's new tooth on her finger...she soon found out it was sharp!
He is such a happy boy!
Silly Liv! What a sweetheart
First the Easter egg hunt and finding our baskets that the Bunny left for the kids at Honey and Poppy's house. Another adorable outfit, lipgloss, nail polish, a little chick that peeps and candy. Even the Adults got a bag to share...we got yummy chocolates and toffee and fun individual door mats. Thanks Honey Bunny!
Of coarse...the classic egg toss game...Liv did pretty good and lance and I won the adult egg toss!!
Cute Honey and Cute Tyson in their spring stripes!
The kids have so much fun playing together! So grateful for cousins that are close! Bob and Sara, wish you were closer, so we could see you all the time!
Olivia and Tyson made out with some great stuff from the Easter Bunny...Liv got a Dic Mcstuffins doctor bag, a Care Bear Movie, a cute outfit and some candy and treats. Tyson got a hammer and nail toy, an outfit and lots of yummy snacks and teething cookies. Thanks Easter Bunny!
Liv was so excited to break out her Doctor stuff, first she checked Daddy and then she was especially excited to check Poppy and take his heart beat. She has been at their house a few times when the nurse is there and Liv always asks to have her heart beat checked so she was really excited to get to be the doctor.
Olivia is so sweet to Poppy, whenever he needs to lean forward in his chair she'll go stand right by him and hold his back so he doesn't fall backwards. She loves her Poppy!
I am so glad that we got at least a few good pics, Every time we would ask Liv to look at the camera she would say cheese, but look away. Little Stinker, at least she is a cute one!!!
Bob and Sara came into town from Sacramento for Easter and His Birthday, so my mom planned a temple day with all of us that we were able to all do sealings together as a family. It was an amazing experience to be there all together. Dad was able to be a witness which was neat and Anna just about passed out from being on her knees...The officiator was this cute Tongan man and finished the blessing then said, you better grab your wife because she looked so pale...Coby got up to get Tiffany who was being a daughter but realized it wasn't Tiffany who needed to saving. We got her some water and fanned her with our dresses and all is well.
After the temple we all got our own lunch's and came back to Honey and Poppies for a picnic lunch outside.
The weather was great and to our great surprise just as we were all finishing our lunch's, who appeared?
The Easter Bunny!!!
Liv was so excited...She loved that Bunny and never left his side the whole time he was there. She loved him!!!
It was so funny, I put Tyson's hat on his head and he grabbed it and tried to pull it off and the hat didn't come up, he ended up pulling so hard that he pulled himself right over.
Thanks to Ben for organizing our family poker night, it was really fun. We all brought our own dinner and lots of candy to share! I think everyone won at least once...we didn't think Pat was going to have any luck and then finally at the end, he pulled out a win, yay! Mom and Dad even folded a few hands so that Pat would have a chance, no one else was that kind.
Had to bring the babes in arms, but at least they were in pretty good spirits!
It's a good thing Tiffany doesn't really gamble because she would have lost all of her and Coby's money. She loved to play the bluffing game.
I'm Sinking...
My mom was the hands and dad was the brains.
I think my mom had the best poker face tho...as soon as we started and she got their cards, she did this little dance with her fingers pointing up in the air and of coarse, singing a "we're going to win" tune. We all had a pretty good laugh over this one. Wouldn't recognize my mom if she didn't do something like this! Love her!
