This & That

I loved picking these two up from their classes at church today & seeing how happy & cute they were in their little crowns. Ruby said the scripture in Primary today & was so nervous she was sick to her stomach. We talked a lot about it & tried to prep her as much as possible & I was so proud of her for getting up & doing it. She never ceases to amaze me with the way she faces her fears & is so brave. I'm so proud of these 2 children of mine & the little people they are becoming. They have such bright, happy spirits & are kind & good.
 
 
 
 
 


Little Things I Want to Remember

These two (especially Noah) are still obsessed with Frozen. Noah wakes up in the morning & we can hear him in his crib belting out "Let It Go". And Ruby spends most days in either her Elsa or Anna dresses. And I kind of want this movie to just go away forever...& sometimes in our home, certain (loud) Frozen toys mysteriously disappear.
 
I just can't even believe how grown up this 4 year old of mine seems these days. She is becoming such a big help to me & is a little mama to Noah. The other day she helped me decorate for Halloween & she couldn't even contain her excitement. She loved every minute of it & I did too. She's a girl after my own heart.
 
Noah adores his dad & wants to do everything Tyler does. He was so proud of himself after he mowed the lawn & I love peeking out my window at this view. He is always outside with Tyler when he's doing yard work & loves to be his helper.
 
We often refer to Ruby as Anne of Green Gables & love her sweet nature. She has the most vivid imagination & loves to play make believe with whatever toys she can find. She is so expressive & talks to me all day long. And I love hearing what's going on in that awesome mind of hers.
 
 
And this boy. I love the way he already tries to take care of me. He has me wrapped around his finger for sure. I've heard people say before that children who sing are happy children. If that's true, then he is one happy boy. He has been singing 24/7 these days.  


Noah Turns 2

Today Noah is 2 years old! This morning we all went into his room when he woke up & sang "Happy Birthday" to him. He had a huge smile on his face & loved yelling "2!" every time we asked him how old he was. This little boy is such a joy in our family & we adore him & his fun-loving personality. We loved celebrating him today. Happy Birthday Noah, we love you!
 
 



 
Noah, here are a few things I want you to remember:
1. You've been blessed with such a happy disposition. Live your life in a way that you'll never lose that.
2. Have more than you show. Speak less than you know.
3. Spend time in nature. It will bring you closer to God & help you see things more clearly.
4. Celebrate other people's success.
5. Work hard. It helps you feel good about yourself & hard work solves a lot of problems.
