Round Em Up!

We took the girls to their first rodeo at the Lehi Round up. I love that they are finally getting old enough to make taking them places a little easier!

Jamie, Levi and Baby Trigg came up to go with us on Thursday. We sat right by the gates and the whistle was so loud poor Baby Trigg we thought he was going to go deaf!

The highlights of the rodeo for us were the motorcycles the girls are still talking about them. Myla also experienced her first public urination behind the restrooms because the line was just too long ; ) We are definitely doing this again next year!

The Replacements

If you have read my last two posts you know that we lost our two kittens :( Yesterday I remembered that a friend of mine from my Bunco group had 6 kittens. So today we went to her house and came home with Winston and Wally!!!

So SAD !

To all of my Harvest Hills neighbors we have lost both of our new kittens :( If you see a gray and a orange kitten please let me know because I have two very sad girls at my house right now. We think they made have gone for a ride under Chris's truck or they may have gotten sick of being squished, poked, and dragged around everywhere.

We miss you Tom and Ruby come home please!

Here Kitty Kitty

Do you remember Elmyra from Looney Tunes and her cat Furball (I loved that show)

Well we have two Elmyra's and two Furball's at our house.

When you look at these pictures imagine my children are saying: I will love and I will squeeze you and I will make you my very own!

We told my Grandpa Jim that we could have one of there kittens. Well Grandpa drove three hours and brought two kittens so how do you tell him sorry only one please.
Ava's favorite way to hold them is squeezing them by the neck!

Myla's favorite thing to do is hug them as hard as she can!


These kittens are definitely not being neglected, mauled maybe but definitely not neglected!

Welcome to the family Tom and Ruby :)

Myla has made it to the ripe old age of FOUR!!!!! She is very proud of this and tells every one from the grocery store clerk to the random person walking down the road :)

We took the girls bowling for her birthday since it was so cold outside. They loved it and both of them wanted NO help from Mom and Dad.

Our cheering section. They were so funny every time Chris or I bowled they would scream and cheer for us.

Daddy helping Myla
This is about as close as Ava would let you get to her when it was her turn. She wanted to do it all by herself.

in between turns Ava had fun entertaining herself by blowing her hair around with the hand blower.

We tried to let Myla roll the ball instead of using the ramp and she walked up put the ball down and kicked it as hard as she could.

I didn't get very many pictures of her party. we were too busy eating cake and opening presents. Thanks to everyone who came she got spoiled rotten!



I have to put this picture up of Myla she looks so stinking funny!!!!

We love you Boogs and are so happy to have you in our family!

Bippy Booby Dance

Myla had her first dance dress rehearsal last week. She will be performing 'Cinderella.' Her age group is dancing the Bippity Boppity Boo dance. It is so funny to try to hear Myla say the name of her dance. The first time she tried to tell me the name of it she said it was the Bippy Booby dance. You better believe I made her dance it for me as soon as we got home just to make sure it wasn't what I thought it was!




She got to wear real makeup for her rehearsal and every day since she has begged me to put some on her again.
Myla is turning 4 on May 4Th and it doesn't seem real to me that she is that old yet!
We love you Myla.

but what else...

This post might make more sense to mothers with little girls who have watched the Swan Princess way more times then they want to admit.

This morning when I was dressing Myla for school I put her in a dress that she had not been able to wear yet because it was so cold outside. She was so excited to show her dress to her teacher at school. This is how are conversation followed after putting the dress on...

Me: Myla you look so beautiful in your dress.
Myla: but what else...
Me: What do you mean?
Myla: but what else... he he he
Me: What do you mean?
Myla: Is beauty all that matters to you? he he he

Wow she is only three years old!
She sure thought that she was something funny!
I am impressed that she put the movie quote and her beautiful dress together, but wow she is going to be a handful.


Love ya Myla :)
