We got the Key!!!!

We are really moving!!! We really own a house. I can't believe it!! It has taken forever but we finally have a house. I am so way excited!! We are moving in this weekend!! Hurray!! Hurray!! Back flip!!!!

Last weekend we went furniture shopping. They let the kids loss in the mattress department. They loved jumping on all those beds. They had so much fun!!! Chanse had a ball playing with a bowling ball and bowling pins!!

Chanse just came out of bed to go potty. I went in his room and he has all his toys on "beds." He made beds and pillows for them with other toys. So cute. He then told me "I told all my guys we are moving after Friday! And if they cry they can sleep with me." He is taking care of his toys.

Side note: Hero said she wants to be a mommy when she grows up. Cute!!

I need to get back to packing. I have been packing and packing and packing. I feel like I have so much more to do!!! Can't I just leave everything and get all new stuff?? AH who am I kidding I could never part with all my stuff I am too sentimental!! Anyways wish me luck!! I hope I can get everything done but Saturday!!!

My Dear Cousin

Today I am so sad because my cousin Erin passed away yesterday!! I still don't know what happened and I don't know if anyone knows yet. She was only 22 years old. Way to young. I was remembering how much fun I had with her a few years ago when we went to Universal Studios together. I had so much fun with her and my other cousin Sarah. Erin was such a wonderful person. I will miss her. I am so sad I didn't get to spend more time with her. But I do know she is in a wonderful place with some other wonderful people. I am sure she is happy. We will all see her again soon. Heavenly Father gave us a wonderful beautiful plan.

I am now appreciating my own family a lot more. I have been over whelmed with the day to day life of having 3 young kids. I have been forgetting to enjoy the moment. It is so challenging when all three kids want you to do something for them all at the same time and you just can't and then they all cry. Then I get so frustrated and mad. But now I have to stop and think it could all be taken away at a blink of an eye. I would actually miss all the tantrums and screaming. I do love my family and I need to stop and enjoy the time I have and not wish them older or different then they are.

I want my brothers and sister to know that even though they drive me mad sometimes I couldn't imagine life with out them. I love all three of them. I have the best older sister, best younger brother and best youngest brother. I also love and appreciate all my parents do for me. I have the best parents in the world.

I wrote this and I forgot to mention my wonderful husband Ben whom I love very much. He does so much for me like doing the grocery shopping! What husbands do that!! He cooks and does the dishes a lot and helps a lot with the kids even after working all day!! Love you Ben!!

Packing

Today I decided to pack up the girls room. Sterling insisted on wearing a Minnie Mouse costume with a purse and a backpack. I was busy in the girls room and the kids were playing and watching their favorite purple Dinosaur. I came down the stairs and Hero whispers to me to be quite. She said "Be quite Mommy, Sterling is sleeping." It was like 10:00 am. Next thing I know she is awake again like she had never gone to sleep. Hero then said "I waked her up! And she was happy!" Well I got a picture of her sleeping. Kids are always so cute when they are asleep. I wish they would sleep longer!!


Man sterling looks big! What happened to my baby!?

Whole Wheat Bread

So people who have long been lovers of white bread always say they don't like wheat bread because it tastes like cardboard. I really like whole wheat bread. I was having some whole wheat toast for breakfast the other day and I found a chunk of cardboard in it. I couldn't believe it, it is true whole wheat bread does taste like cardboard. It was really gross to have a piece of cardboard stuck in my teeth. Yuck!! Here is a picture of the cardboard it matches the color of the bread but it is really cardboard. Yuck!!
