Some cute things


I haven't done any cute little things for awhile so I thought I might share a few. First of course is the picture the hospital e-mailed me of little girl number 3! I think she is adorable already. During the ultrasound she kept her legs up like that as much as possible and kind of looked like she was rocking back and forth. Then if the technician pushed on her a bit she would kick and punch out. It was fun to watch.




So here are the girls making cookies. Jebs work requests "mormon" cookies a lot so we try to provide. Harley has now moved up from just stirring to now reading me the directions! She reads them very well. I think this made it so when we started doing some fraction work in school time she thought it was so fun and just flew through it. That girl is so smart and just loves learning. She is a great little chef in the making. Niyah is great also, she just loves to eat it before its ready a little to much. :)



A couple of weeks ago, I said to Niyah that it was about bath time. I finished cleaning the kitchen and went upstairs to find she had put herself in the bath tub. With her sunglasses on. I asked her what she was doing, she said she needed goggles for her swimming.


They do however have real goggles. Their Daddy brought some back from Missouri. They were so excited I could hardly get them to take them off. Harley kept asking when we could go swimming. She has really become a great swimmer and I have to fight to keep her in the shallow end. She loves the diving board. Niyah was so funny as she kept standing in front of the mirror smiling at her reflection and saying over and over I look so cute, I look so cute! I couldn't help but laugh and take a picture for future posterity!



This is us with a Elder we enjoyed having over. His name is Elder Black and he is from Idaho. Funny guy. He had to leave this area to go out into rural Japan. Poor guy, they get spoiled when they are here by the base because the members here all feed them really well. I hope he is enjoying himself now, out in the rice paddies!

Hey Jeb, hows it going? I didnt realize that you were in the air force. I am an avionics specialist, but my retrain window opens soon and I am going to try to be a boom operator. That post was from a TDY to hill where the boom operator let me lay next to him and watch what was going on. I just made Staff this cycle. I am excited to sew on. How is Sean doing? I miss him a lot. I hope all is well. Keep in touch.

Hey guys!
This is Amy, Chad's sister!
It was great to run across your blog while reading Trent and Natalies!
I was reading Salinda's Intrests! LOL
Can I just say we couldn't be anymore alike! Why didn't I know all this about her when you lived so close! Dang!
Hopefully you will come back here some day and we can get to know one another better.
Your girls are adorable!
It was great to run into you,
Amy

Hi Salinda! I found your blog link on Jenny West's site...Dave and I have one, too...we are at www.davedebandthekids.blogspot.com
Japan looks amazing. Would love to check it out some day if it weren't for the flying over the ocean idea. Just can't do it...at least without a truckload of Valium!
