January 2018

Scott has been Super Dad this month. He took the boys on not one, but two camping trips! They went to Calico Ghost Town, and Anza Borrego. They loved hiking, off roading in the Jeep, and playing.




He also took them to Monster Jam! They came home talking about all the cool Monster Trucks they saw.




This cute stinker got to hang with me while I organized and nested. She's got the best personality! She wants to dress up all the time, she laughs at everything, and she tells you what is on her mind.
The other day the kids came to cuddle me in my bed in the morning when they woke up. I hadn't gotten up yet, so my teeth were not brushed. Apparently she got a whiff of my breath and she kept telling me, "Mom, you're disgusting!" over and over again. I'm not going to lie, it lowered my self esteem a bit.
She was also near one of the boys when they farted. The second she smelled it she started spitting saying, "Poop in my mouth, poop in my mouth". We couldn't stop laughing...poor girl.


Max asked me to write this to his friend, so we could attach it to a balloon and send it to land at his house. I ended up texting the picture to his friends mom, but I thought it was the cutest thing for him to come up with.


I went to volunteer in Porter's class one day, and the first thing his teacher told me was how they had just taken the district math test and Porter got every one of the questions correct! She said he was a math genius, and she wants him to start helping other kids in his class. I'm so proud of him!







December 2017

December is always filled with so much joy! What better place to experience it, than Disneyland.
I took the kids on my own, and I feel like everyone was filled with Christmas spirit. I had men helping me get the stroller out of the tram, families near us in line sharing cotton candy with my kids, and lots of sweet comments about my baby bump.

The kids were so well behaved, and I couldn't have had a better time with them :)




Kylie and Aubrey had a face painter at their party this year.
I came home with a princess, and 2 cute tigers.




This gave them some horrible ideas the next few days.



My sweet friends surprised me with a girls night dinner/shower. Of course I didn't think to take a pic while we were all enjoying ourselves, so here's some proof that baby #4 got celebrated.


On to the Christmas checklist...

When it's Max's turn for FHE around Christmas, he chooses making a Gingerbread house every time. 
They were all pleased with the results.



We went to see the Thoroughbred lights like we do every year. They never disappoint.




Ward Christmas party...
Max and Em were cows for the nativity


and Port was a donkey.


Kennedy got to be a cute onlooker...





Max had his preschool Christmas program, and I was beaming the entire time! He performed so well, sang all the songs, and looked directly at me through the whole thing. My heart was melted.






Christmas Eve fell on a Sunday. It was so neat to go to church for an hour and be filled with songs of Christ's birth and to hear scripture and Christmas messages.




We spent that night afternoon at Jessie's house celebrating!






Santa visited us that night...


And the morning was pure joy! The kids are at such a fun age to celebrate. They are so excited and filled with belief.










A couple days after Christmas we celebrated with some of the Williamson side. Grandma made her famous PJ's for the kids.



This year was my favorite Christmas so far.
