Jared turns 4!!

My posts got all mixed up, but here are a few more pictures from the party!

My sweet mother-in-law decorated the table and stairs, so when Jared woke up on his birthday he came down stairs to find this! She is so sweet and kind. Jared love it and felt so special!

Jared turns 4!!

We had a little birthday party at the park the day before his birthday. He had such a great time playing with his cousins and friends. This was his first birthday party that we took invitations and invited friends. He love it. I may have loved it more though!!

Around the breakfast table!

Each morning as we eat breakfast, I like to talk to Jared about things such as his dreams and the day before. Well this morning Jared started the conversation by saying,
"Mom did you know we all went to Heaven with Jesus?"
Kelly: You're right we did.
Jared: Even you and Payton lived with Jesus.
Kelly: Yep everyone lived with Jesus.
Jared: He lives far far away like this high. (Stretching his arms as high as they would go)
Jared: And he lives in the Church house.
Kelly: Ya he does!
Jared: But not down here.
Kelly: That is right. Where did you learn all of these wonderful things? In Primary?
Jared: No. In the class. ( Meaning in the classroom, not in the primary room!)
Kelly: I am so glad you are learning these things about Jesus. Does it make you happy to learn about Jesus?
Jared: Ya, I love Jesus!!

I am so grateful that he is learning all these wonderful things. It is just proof that going to church is essential for our childrens progression. They learn so much from being there. I love watching my children learn and grow!

The joys of cribs and poop!!

Everyday between 12 and 1 I lay Payton down for his nap. On this particular day he had been in his crib for over an hour playing, instead of sleeping :) Suddenly he began crying. It started as a whine and then after a few minutes turned into a sob. I could tell something was wrong, so I asked Robbie to go up and check on him and tell Payton it was time to lay down and sleep. Well Robbie walked into his room and immediately said, "um Kelly come here." So I went upstairs to find Payton standing in the corner of his crib crying and pointing to the poop in his crib. Not only did he poop, but he was naked from head to toe and had peed at least 3 times all over the crib and floor. He was like a little puppy hiding in the corner terrified of the repocution that was about to befall him. It was actually pretty funny! I should have gotten pictures, but in my haste I cleaned him and his bed up before I could get any.
Luckily he hasn't done it again. I think he was so scared of his poop, that he won't do it again!

The joys of taking family pictures!

These are just a few examples of our exciting family picture taking adventure!

5 Years of Wedded Bliss!

November 26th was our 5 year Anniversary!! I suprised Robbie with tickets to Phantom of the Opera. He has always wanted to see it on Broadway. I had purchased the tickets 2 months earlier and it was killing me to keep it a secret from him. I showed up at his work dressed up and handed him the tickets. He was so excited! We had such an amazing time.
I am so lucky to be married to such a wonderful husband and father. I love you honey more then you could ever know!
