What we have been up to...

well here are some pictures to show what we have been up to lately besides finding a new house to move into (more on that later).

Fun at Farm Country-Afton, Clark, Savanna looking at the ducks and geese.

Savanna, Julian, Afton, and Clark

Fun at the Dinosaur Museum

Fun with friends-Clark, Addie, and Elle

My little cuties (Savanna has been dressing herself and loves to ties that pink strap around her that goes to a purple and pink dress. And yes Clark is in underwear and no he is not quite potty trained yet.)

Went to our Bishop from our married student ward's birthday party this past Saturday. Here is a group shot of the families from that ward who came. We still stay in touch with most of them. Unfortunately you can't see Savanna in this picture. TC is holding her and the guy in front of her is blocking her.

Going with friends to the trampoline fun center. My kids love this place!

Dressing up as Cinderella getting married (After this I had to dance with her being her prince (TC wasn't home). She was very insistent that I put my hand on her back while we dance just like princes do.) That's her "I'm super adorable pose" by the way-lol.

Savanna in her ballet/tap/gym class. She loves it! It is so cute to watch too! She is the one in the light pink leotard in the back.

Even more quotes...

I just want to remember all the cute things my kids say so here is some more for you.

Savanna

• Elle (Savanna's friend): "We are best friends aren't we Savanna?" Savanna: "Of course we are!"
• (At the pool last night she was very brave I think because TC was there. She was swimming on her belly with a life jacket and going under water. I've been trying to do that the whole summer!) So these are some of the things Savanna said after she went under the water. We did bribe her with ice cream by the way! 
• "This is the hardest thing I've ever done!"
• "This is the bravest thing I've ever done!"
• "I'm proud of me!"
• (At Wal Mart today) "Mommy are you going to have a black baby?"
• (About her primary teacher on Sunday) "Sister Petersen is beautiful!"
• (To her primary teacher) "I love you more than cupcakes."
• (To me all the time) "I love you 400 Mommy." "I love you a trillion Mommy." "I love you  a billion billion Mommy." "I love you more than you love me."
• (In the bathroom at the pool last night) "I need to go before you Mommy. I have to pee a lot worse than you do!"
• (To a friend of mine whose little daughter was wearing a sleeveless shirt) "You should put a shirt underneath that."

Clark

(After going under the water in the pool.) "I get a M n M!"

(To a random boy at the pool) "I like you."
"That's how you know!!!" (Sung loudly from Enchanted)
"(To Savanna this morning when she moved away from him on the couch with a very sad face) "But Savanna I like you."
(When I was bringing him in from the car one night) "Why is it so dark? There's a dragon coming!"
"The wolf will come and eat Mommy, Daddy, Savanna, and Clark."
(To a random person at Wal Mart today) "Hi. I Clark."

More Quotes

*These kids sure keep me laughing! They either are making me laugh or driving me crazy! They sure are cute though.

Savanna

• "Mom how about we name the baby Nemo if it's a boy? Or Dory if it's a girl?"
• (To me) "I love you my grown up, my mother, my mommy, my Ashley."
• "I love you my big girl."
• "Mommy I love you more when you have a baby in your tummy."
• (To me while handing me something) "Here you go lovely."
• (To me) "I love looking at your orange eyes."
• (Kissing my tummy) "I love the baby in your tummy."
• "Heavenly Father will send a girl."
• (At the park today while lying on the playground) Me: "Savanna what are you doing? " Savanna: "Sun bathing."

And in case you think you think all she says is nice things here are a couple not so nice things she said to me but still funny nonetheless.

• (At the park today) Savanna: "Can I have some snacks?" Me: "I didn't bring any today." Savanna:"Ugh, bad mom!" (FYI I don't call her bad Savanna so not sure where she got this from!)
• (After putting her in time out after her and Clark were trying to poke each other with their forks at lunch) "I need a new mom."

Clark

• Me: "Clark what do you want to be for Halloween?" Clark: "Hmm...Jasmine!"
• "I love you so much Mommy!" (Melts my heart!)
• (Today he was moving a bunch of stuff into the hallway) Me: "What are you doing?" Clark: "Packing!"
• "Papa makes me eggs. I like eggs."
• (When he didn't go pee on the potty) "I already went pee pee last week."
• "I love you Savanna." (He says I love you all the time. It's so cute.)
• (One day while driving to the pool in TC's car because he took mine to work.) Clark: "Where is your car Mommy?" Me: "Daddy took it to work." Clark: "Oh darn it. We need to go get it." 
• "I swim all by myself!" (Every time we go to the pool and he tries to swim all by himself. He is too brave!)
• "Oh my gosh! The puzzle is on the floor! (After he put all the pieces on the floor like he's not sure how they got there!)

Big News!

So a lot of you I have already told and those of you that I have not probably noticed a little baby bump going on in the pictures I just posted from our Montana trip. So yes our big announcement is I am pregnant! Our new little one is due to make his or her appearance on February 8th,2013! We are really excited and I am nervous of course. Now we will always be outnumbered children to adults even when TC is home. The kids are excited especially Savanna. She can't wait. She doesn't understand why my belly isn't as big as some other pregnant women and sometimes gets concerned! She wants the baby to be a girl though she told me yesterday after my doctor's appointment that the nurse told her the baby was a boy. Interesting.
Overall we are really excited!

Montana Trip

Here are some fun pictures from Montana. We had a great time there. We swam, boated, took a trip to Glacier National Park.  It was great to relax. Anyway enjoy the pictures!
