Just because...

Finally... a new post

We took the kids up to Utah a couple of weeks ago to go sledding for their first time (I know how sad is that). Mo and Li'a loved it for the most part. They hated wearing the winter attire though. They would take off their gloves and then fall in the snow and start crying because their hands were freezing. Go figure.

Does it look like he is enjoying himself??

Ohh.. and I caved on the sleep training. She was doing so well and then I am not quite sure what happened. She is getting up about 3 or so times a night. Those tears get me every time:)

Soccer

I can't believe it is already December. November flew by. Mo's soccer season ended the weekend before Thanksgiving and so I thought I would post a few shots from that.

So Proud!!

Where has my precious sleep gone??

My sweet little Myla is not sleeping!! She is getting up 6 or 7 times a night. I expect this with a newborn but she is almost 7 months. I realize I did this to myself but I can't take the so little sleep any more. So I am doing what I hate doing... letting her cry herself to sleep. Mean mom I know. Mo and Ali'a were never fabulous sleepers either but they would go longer stretches. I can handle 1-2 times but not this waking up all night long. Hopefully I can stay strong and get through these next few days of "training."

Look at this face. OHHHH this is so sad.

Halloween

We took the kids to a pumpkin patch that had a couple of rides and a blow up slide. They loved it so much we went back a couple of times. It has been a busy couple of weeks but a lot of fun!

Can you see it in Li'a and Mo's faces, "Are we done taking pictures yet?"

Myla, sweet as ever!

The anticipation building!!

Flying high

Getting ready for take off!

Their favorite!!

Ready for trunk or treat!

"Sorting" out the goods

A little R & R

We took a short trip down to Scottsdale and met Mike, Jamia & the girls there. It went by way too fast.
One of the days while we were there we spent all afternoon by the pool. The weather was perfect!

At the resort they had a play room for the kids and Newel set Myla up with the dwarfs

Mo, Macy, Ali'a & Ava

Ava & Myla

This is right outside of our room and Ali'a learned real quick not to play up there.:)
