We took all three boys to get hair cuts, much to mom's dismay, and they all got butchered.  Jensen hated it, so his new thing is to close his eyes when he doesn't want to be somewhere or talk to someone.  I think he thinks if he can't see, then people can't see him.  Who knows.

We have just learned that Jensen, our 2/12 year old, is a pretty good artist.  This is exciting, since he is the fourth kid and we haven't encountered it before.  He can draw whatever you ask him to, and it actually resembles the object.  He loves drawing animals, cars, and shapes.  It's so cute!

I can't believe this girl is almost one!  Time flies way too fast and I'm trying to treasure everything because this is the last baby.  She is almost walking! and did I mention that she discovered sand?  We couldn't resist a trip to the beach over President's weekend, even though it was pretty cold, it was fun to be there.  I guess the sand eating is a pre-curser to this summer, oh well.

Happy Belated Valentine's Day!

These are some of the pics I never posted from our trip to Utah after Christmas.  We had fun with our cousins and going to the different museums.

We had fun in the cold weather, sneaking out for a wagon ride before the rain started.  Taking Jensen and Carley together remind me of when Braden and Brynn were little.  LIfe seemed so simple, and it seems like ages ago.  Kids are priceless and I am trying to enjoy the little things that are so cute.

Braden received his Bear for Boy Scouts on my birthday Jan. 31st.  What a great gift to a mom.  Jon got to mark him with the black stuff, when he went into the other room to "fight the bear" and come out with the badge.  It was pretty funny.

I haven't taken very many pictures lately, so here's all I have.  We're kind of taking it easy until baseball and soccer start.  It doesn't feel right having all this time with our family, but I am not complaining.  I love it.
