So Far Behind.....

So I'm not sure what's the proper way to catch up on a blog, when you are as far behind as I am....do you try and make up all the missing stuff, or do you just start from right now.  I'm going to go with starting right now! (Don't worry I will add the past 6 months to the blog book, so all our family history won't be ruined!)


In the past few weeks here's what the Prince house has been up to.......

 Aubree entered a story in the "Reflections" contest, and was excited to receive an award for participation.  She wrote the story of her first plane ride with her dad!

 Dallin's hard work in scouting paid off, as he received his Arrow of Light, along with his Webelos awards this month. He was pretty excited that his best friend Ben received his award the same night.  Scouting is one of Dallin's favorite things.  Learning and building are two of Dallin's most favorite things, so scouting is right up his alley!

Madellyn continues to swim 3 days a week, we have been so blessed with the amazing coach she has.  She just had a Championship meet on Friday, and placed 2nd overall for the area.  I love to see her dedication in something she loves so much.

 Breggan finished up his first year of soccer this fall. He's anxiously awaiting the time for football sign-ups.  This boy is all about sports, and Angry Birds! 

Rylee and Sydnee get to stay home during the day and hang out with mom.  I'm so blessed that I get to stay home with my babies!  These two are so into pretend right now.   I'm constantly answering "what" when I hear the name mom, only to be told they are talking to the "other mom"!  Another favorite game is hide-n-seek.  The other day the played for over an hour,  they each took turns hiding in the same place.  Yet each time they were just as surprised and excited to see each other. 



Well, there is a really rough start as to what we have been up to lately.  Wish me luck as I try to get back on the blogging wagon!

Exciting Stuff!

So, I'm just wondering how long will the excitement of mowing the lawn last?
It was Dallin's first time mowing the lawn, he begged, and who was I to deny him? I was so impressed with what a great job he did! He's already begging to be the one that gets to mow next week!!

Yep....I'm THAT mom!

This isn't the greatest picture....but I needed to document that here we are with child #6, and I have finally turned into THAT mom!  You know the one that lets her 2 year old wear butterfly wings, a skirt inside out, and no shoes to church.  Because when you are two sometimes getting dressed all by yourself and not having someone correct you is important....right???  Too bad for the cute little butterfly, she was naughty in church, and dad had to cut her wings.  But luckily she was still able to fashion the skirt and no shoes.  The best part was after church she came out from nursery with a lovely new pair of shoes.  We had to return them, but Ry sure thought they belonged to her!  Maybe it's a good plan, send her without shoes, and she will come home with a new pair.....it's a thought!

Oh Sleep How I love You!!

There is nothing sweeter to me than a sleeping baby!

Oh to be a young, and be able to fall asleep anywhere.

Mother's Day Luau

Breggan's kindergarten class puts together such a fun celebration for mom's.  We all got to wear lei's.

His teacher trys to read a book called "Let Me Hold You Longer", by Karen Kingsbury

It's one of THOSE kind of books, that it took 2 teachers to make it through the book.

(I already own the book, and have read it with my two other kids that have had the same Kindergarten teacher, so I can usually make it through the book without tears!)  Oh and by the way, if you are a mom, you need the book!

We then eat snacks...No pictures of food!

The kids sing cute songs.

Then they finish the Luau with giving us moms a cute gift they have made.

I love watching Breggan in class, and how proud he was of all his hard work!

What a week....

If your week ends up looking like this, you know it's been a bad week!




Two kids sharing the same hospital bed, never a good sign. Hopefully by morning we will have turned a corner with this nasty virus that has made both these kids dehydrated!

And P.S
Incase you are wondering.....no you don't get a discount if your kids share a bed!
