mother's day 2020 + sisters day



james and the girls made me feel special all day. james got my hints and hooked me up with some peanut brittle from mrs. cavanaughs, and oh my goodness! so good. they made me crepes and and we had a nice relaxing day. later we had dinner over at my mother in law's and the kids loved playing with cousins and it was really nice not to have to cook my own dinner.








the next day was sisters day. oh man, these girls love celebrating that day. they're so funny! we did nails, made a fun strawberry drink, they watched movies together, and then we did slurpees after dinner. they honestly thought it was the best day ever!

the past two weeks...

the past two weeks...

saturday there was lots of snow. brooklyn and kendall begged to go out and shovel the driveway. they were working hard...then kendall came inside to get warm and it was obvious that she was getting sick. poor girl. brooklyn had just gotten over a cough/cold and kendall was getting it. she did not like missing school.


i have lots of photos of rosie sleeping. i just can't help myself!


sunday, the two older girls stayed home from church with james and the baby. i love these pictures he got of the three of them!




wherever rosie is, adi is!



brooklyn and kendall had friday and monday off of school and they had big plans! candyland was at the top of the list. they love playing games together. too bad their mom isn't very patient about playing them. they seriously loved doing this. then they played a rousing game of hide and seek.


the older two loved being at home to spend more time with the new baby in the house.



also on their list, sam's club for lunch. they love the slushies and pizza. can't say i disagree. it was a fun little outing and even better that james got to join us.



sledding! it was the perfect day for sledding and they even got to sled with cousins. i spent the time in the van with rosie so i didn't get many pictures. adi went down the hill about three times and then got in the van, cozied up, and fell asleep.




that evening, just adi and i ran some errands together. she loves to do this. she's also so good when it's just her getting to be out and about with mom or dad. her night was made at ulta, when the cute makeup artist asked if she wanted some glitter on her face. she was beaming the rest of the night!


our first week at church as a family of 6!



i got all 4 of the girls pink robes for christmas and i've been dying to get a picture of all of them together in them!



next up on the list: sister sleepover/movie night.


the most anticipated thing on their list: crepes for breakfast. they love their daddy to make crepes!


after breakfast, brooklyn and i snuck off to see little women together. i loved it! it was such a good wholesome movie. having four daughters of my own makes me love it even more! it was so fun to just be with brooklyn. she is growing up too fast on me!



the girls love to throw sports bras on and 'workout'. it cracks me up every time!


one afternoon, adi got rosie to sleep in her arms and could not have been happier! it was the sweetest thing in the world!


another weekly sunday photo. i love these four more than they'll ever know! they drive james and i absolutely bonkers but we love them so so much!

these girls...


these girls love each other and tolerate each other pretty darn well. they love being creative together, taking naps together, having sleepovers, doing plays, and all other sorts of things. i love watching them together and in moments when they are getting along and really loving each other, my dreams come true!

mother's day 2019


i woke up to breakfast in bed, waffles & milk, thanks to brooklyn! she was so excited about it the night before, and i was excited she wanted to do it! my older two sang to me in relief society and gave me flowers and it made my whole day! james made sure when we got home that i had cards all over the house to read from him and the girls. again, made my day! i got to take a tiny nap, and then we had dinner at my in laws'. it really was a wonderful day.




and as per tradition, the following day was sisters' day! my girls continue to love this simple tradition. we usually just get snow cones or slushies and call it good. but they think it's great! i'm so so glad they have each other!



i can't adequately express my love for these three girls. i get emotional over them daily and honestly can't believe they're mine. i love them so much that it hurts. they bring so much happiness and light to my life and they'll never know how much they mean to me. being a mother is really a treasured role that i am beyond grateful for every day.
