mommy night....

Tonight i came home to a frustrated hubby who needed a break from being "The Mom'' :) Anyways, i decided to get out of the house with the kids. We went to dinner at a chinese restraunt together... was very brave of me considering there ages :) lol coop was great.. lets not talk about Lucy.. lol :) Anyways, we were sitting there waiting for our food and as soon as it came out i was putting Lucy back in the high chair at the restraunt when i heard Coop saying "Mom"... "mom" so i finally looked over at him and he was folding his arms waiting to bless the food :) and said "mom, me pray" it was so cute.. ha ha :) i just giggled to myself and let him bless our chinese food along with everyone's names in the fam.. :) He's so cute and i really love how he loves to pray!! It makes you feel like you are doing something right as a mother.. :)

to my blogger friends..

ok.. So as you all know and can tell by my blog it's been a while :) anyways.. for those of you who still have blogs or have changed blogs or have made your blog private please let me know of your changes so i can follow you and your families :) i love catching up by reading others blogs so let me know what your blog is and if it is private here is my e-mail to add me :) it's dancingchick13@hotmail.com :) Love you all...

You think your life is hard until..

So I checked My e-mail today and My sister in law Holli :) had sent me an e-mail about one of her good friends little girl that fell out of a window 2 story's high and what an amazing family just reading this blog. (http://www.angelangelee.blogspot.com/) She is still in the hospital but my heart and prayers are with this family. Then, i was talking to my sister Lyndsay and told her about this story when she told me she had been reading another blog about a different story (http://www.patrickandashley.blogspot.com/) Don't ask me why i even looked at this blog. I have been bawling the whole time reading it and as i was reading both of these blogs i just can't believe the strength and testimonies from these complete strangers that have touched my life and many others as well. It just made me so greatful for both of my babies. I love them so much. And as a mother, i can not imagine how life would even be with out my kids or even if one of them had to go through the kind of pain these 2 other kids have been going through. Anyways, Just greatful for the smile my kids bring to me. I don't know what i would do with out either one of them. I have been working latley because chad currently is trying to find a job and i miss them, i know daddy time is fun but i really do love them so much. Everyone say's it's prob good to get a break, which it has been, but i really am so greatful to be a mommy :) I wouldn't change it for anything. Love you Cooper and Lucy :)

FFT= FUN FAM TIME ;)

So i hope i can be a little better at posting things.. I am one who actually likes to write in a journal. I like to jot things down to remember so i figured if i post more i could actually refer this more to a journal :) lol Anyways, tonight we went up big cottonwood canyon and hiked to Lake Mary.. ok.. wow! i am out of shape! lol i about died..but honestly it was SO fun :) once we got to the lake Cooper got to fish for his first time with Grandpa Craig for about 20 min... Didn't catch anything but it was really fun to watch him. The moutains are so gorgeous.. i was looking at the lake and all the tree's around it :) how beautiful.. we haven't done something so different for a while so it was just nice to be together!! unfortuanetly i forgot my camera to take pics :(

HELLO OUT THERE :)

I know.. it's been quiet a while but just wanted to share with those of you who still check my blog, some recnet pics of the kids :) Chad and i went to wheeler farm and tried to snap a few shots of the kids :) i didn't think any turned out due to how naughty they were being.. lol :) but Chad did awesome and we got quiet a few cute ones :) my favorite ones are the black and white ones.. but these ones turned out the best :)

We took Cooper on Thomas the train Memorial weekend and had a blast as you can tell. :) Cooper has this bad habit of biting his lip and pulling his ears and so when we told him to get in front of the train.. what do you think he did?? ha ha.. so funny!!
