Look who came to visit.....

My sweet little niece Zoe! I haven't seen her since she was new...and she is already 5 months old! (and so chubby!) She is a happy, easygoing baby and I couldn't resist snapping away!

Baby.....so much fun!

I am so lucky that my baby has not rebelled against my photo shoots...Yet! He is really helping me get in the practice while it is too cold to venture outside! If you can't tell...he is a dream!

Tubalicious!

So...the winter weather is keeping us inside...so we keep finding fun locations around the house to take photos. But, we keep ending up in the bathroom with all the great light. Sorry about MORE tub pictures....but come on spring!!! Then we can go play outside again! (here is my most willing, least bribed subject who loves peekaboo games from behind the camera...he is 9.5 months)

Happy Valentine's Day!!

10 years ago.....To the day? I broke up with my boyfriend (hubby) and told him I needed some time to figure out what I was going to do with my life....He then called me on Valentine's Day, asked me out and proposed! (what part of this says breaking up???) I was a mess at that point...so I said I would get back to him....(nice!) On the 15th of Feb I finally said YES! and have never regretted that decision. In fact I still have "what if" nightmares....Let's just say that I made the best decision of my life this week 10 years ago!

5 things on my to-do list today...#1 Put away the laundry (I always seem to get it folded just not put away!) #2 Order some photos for a client #3 Help the kiddos get their Valentines ready for tomorrow. #4 Take a thank you gift to my friend. #5 Reorganize my house after baby doll has removed everything from it's proper place! Wait there's more.....LOL

snacks that I enjoy....I love almonds! I love that pumpkin seed flax granola from Costco with Yoplait yogart....yummy! I love oranges....or mangos...or watermelon...or fresh pineapple...or papaya...ohhh I am missing summer! I don't know if you can count it for a snack...but I am a sucker for homemade goodies....yes, cookies, brownies, cinnamon rolls, cake..you name it...It doesn't stand a chance just sitting on my counter!

What would I do if I were suddenly a billionaire....Well isn't that a fun thought! Hmmmm....I would invest a bunch...and then I think I would buy my dream house on a couple acres of property. It would have to have a view and room for the boys to run and fruit trees and a green house to grow my little organic veges and herbs all year round! Oh yeah...and it must have an indoor sports court for my 4 boys to play and practice all their favorite sports...Then....I would take my little family all around the world on little trips and let them experience the bigger picture of life. And I with the rest I would be a philanthropist and pay it forward.

3 of my bad habits are....#1 Letting the baby stay in PJ's all day...#2 Picking at my nails #3 Waiting till the last minute to do something...opps!

5 places I have lived... #1 Grew up in Utah #2 Lived in Rexburg Idaho and Provo Utah for undergrad. #3 Lived in Fiji for a 18 months as a missionary for my church. #4 Lived in Idaho Falls as a newlywed. #5 Lived in St. Louis Missouri for 4 years for my husbands doctorate degree. and now I am back to Utah....

5 things most people don't know about me...#1 I love all the arts....I love to sing, ballroom dance, play the piano, and go to the theatre. #2 I used to work for a radio station writing ads and producing commercials. My biggest client was a ....funeral home...lol #3 I graduated from BYU in Elementary Education. (still use it every day!) #4 I love cooking and I am in love with food network. #5 I would love to write a children's book one day to have published...

Ok....I sent you a note if you are tagged...

Tub Time!

This little boy LOVES the tub! Every morning it is the very first thing he asks about..."Can I go in da Tub??" We have even resorted to use it as a form of bribery...Like..."You can get in the tub when your job is done"....Etc. Works like a charm! He is our cleanest child by far!
