Recap time!

It's been a while since I've been able to post and nothing too exciting has happened but we've been constantly busy!! So here's our recap starting with the most recent :) ...

Sunday night our stake had a YM/YW fireside with Sis. Dalton! It was so awesome and I talked Anthon into coming with me and Jesse was sweet enough to stay with the kids :) She gave an awesome talk and challenged us all to 'change the world' by being 100% in 3 things everyday ...

1- Pray!
2- Read the scriptures for 5 minutes
3- Smile!

Simple enough huh?! We decided in our home to be 100% and it's been really fun to do so far! Baylee is even understanding it! I'm so glad we could go and listen to her!

We also got tons of snow on sunday and Baylee couldn't have been more excited! She woke up and looked out the window and started jumping up and down screaming "yay! it's Christmas!!" thank heavens it's not yet! She is so funny! As soon as church was over she was in snow clothes!

Saturday Hunter turned 1! Wow he's sooo big! He had a party and really enjoyed his cake!!

Bay found a new friend in Roxy that night (Brian and Suzanne's puppy) ... She wants one pretty bad now and keeps telling me Dorothy needs Toto so she needs a puppy like that :)

The party was fun! As always the kids had fun together :)

I've been doing lots of winter preparation ... cleaning out closets etc. I got alot of canning done! Yay! It's so nice to have peaches and pears! I haven't gotten to my tomatoes yet so I might not make it!

Bay is becoming a little artist too! She is really into drawing pictures of our family :)

I guess maybe I could write about my dog, birds and fish... hmmm.... Now theres an idea! I could title it, "Ali and her pets"... that was a joke.. Anyways, I feel like I haven't seen you guys for a while! I miss Bay and Bost! -oh and I guess you and anthon too. Jk, of course i do! Those pics of the kids in the snow are So cute!

Our Baylee Girl

Baylee is my little angel! She is 5 and getting ready to start kindergarten this fall! She loves learning so we are really excited for this upcoming event! She is so creative and loves to cut, color, and glue anything so craft time with me is pretty fun! She's started taking tumbling again this summer and can't wait to start soccer this fall! She loves her little brother and new baby sister and is a great big sister! She is a great example to us all and loves to pray ... her prayers consist of 'all thanks' which is so cute! We love her and her sweet spirit!

Our Sweet Boston

Baylee-isms!

Last week while our cousin Meg was staying with us, she would walk around with a paper and pen to write down the funny things the kids would say so we wouldn't forget! She has inspired me to keep better track so here's some classic Baylee ...

3/16/09
Tone was just getting ready to head out the door and Bay asked "where are you going?" he told her he had to run to the dump and then get some beauty bark for the yard and she said "Wow! I've been looking forward to going to the dump, thanks dad for letting me come too!" ... how can you resist that! :)

9/3/08
We were just waking up for the day and laying in bed and Baylee looked at me and said ...
Baylee ... "Mom did you know I have a brother and a sister?"
Me ... "Really? Who's your brother?"
Baylee ... "Boston is!"
Me ... "Oh, well who's your sister?"
Baylee ... "Well you are mom!"
soooo cute!

8/28/08
We were hitting traffic time coming home from Salt Lake the other day and I said under my breath ... 'I hate traffic'. There was silence for a few minutes and then from the back seat I hear a little voice "Mommy, traffic makes me so upset! Does it make you upset too?"

7/7/08
Mimi is in town and she and Baylee were at the mall and Bay asked her "Mimi, do you look like a witch?" Mimi said "No Bay, I'm beautiful." Baylee then gets close to her face and looks her right in the eye and says "Yep, you are beautiful!"

6/29/08
I had a really bad headache last night and was laying down and Baylee comes over and puts her little hands on my face and says "Mom I'm going to take care of you like Charlie takes care of Claire." Sooooo cute! (if you don't watch 'Lost' you might not get that one!)

6/22/08
We were on a walk with Nana and Papa and this is the conversation ...
Mom ... "Bay did you know we get to go to Hannah Montana?"
Bay ... "I love Hannah Montana! Do I get to go too?"
Mom ... "Yep"
Papa ... "You don't really like Hannah Montana, what about Sarah Utah?" ;)
Bay ... "No I don't like Sarah Utah but I really love Hannah Montana sooooo much! huh mom, I love Hannah Montana!" emphasis on soooo ... we all were laughing so hard!

6/19/08
Baylee was eating pudding and decided to share some with Boston. I got a kick out of her ... "Boston open up ... oh Good Boy!" so excited as she said it! I couldn't stop laughing! Minature Mom in the making :)

6/1/08
(while watching Scooby-Doo)
Baylee... "Mom, does Shaggy and Scooby wear seatbelts?'
Mom... "Of course! We always wear our seatbelts and I'm sure they all do too."
(a minute later)
Baylee... "Mom, actually they really don't."

thanks Scooby for being such great examples of how not to ride in the mystery van!

5/20/08
Baylee... "Mom is dad your honey?"
Mom... "yep!"
Baylee... "Mom is dad your husband?"
Mom... "yep!"
Baylee... "Mom and dad is your pal huh?"
Mom... "of course!"
(funny little girl!)

4/29/08
Baylee... "Oh my hell!! That was weird!!"
(before I have time to comment)
Baylee... "Mom, is wierd a bad word?"
I obviously haven't emphasized the right word to pick! :)

4/16/08
I keep a bunch of books and crayons in the car for Baylee to be entertained while we run around and today and as I turned around I saw she had pulled out all the books all over the back of the car ... this was the conversation :)
Mom... "Baylee why did you pull out every book?!"
Baylee... "I'm trying to find my ABC coloring"
Mom... "Just ask me then, I know right where that stupid book is without you pulling them all over the car!"
Baylee... "Oh, well where's my stupid book?"
that's what I get!!

4/12/08
Last night we were all watching a little Scooby Doo for Baylee's wind down time and Dad fell asleep (surprise!) by the tv ... anyone who knows Tone understands he is not easily awaken and tonight wasn't any different! I got Baylee upstairs and all she could keep saying was "daddy will be scared alone" and "the witch will get him downstairs, mommy" I tried to comfort her by letting her know that daddy would wake up and be upstairs in a minute and that the witch can't come inside when the security system is on :) She wasn't convinced but I kept trying until somewhere in all the talking, I fell asleep. I woke up about 3:30am and Tone still hadn't made his way upstairs. I looked down at the little made up bed that Baylee uses when she's scared by the side of my bed and Baylee wasn't in it anymore ... I checked her bed too and it was empty. I decided to go check downstairs by Tone and there was Baylee with her blanket, curled up next to him! She wasn't going to let him go it alone! Oh how I love this girl!

4/11/08
Dad ... "Baylee, do you look like mommy or DADDY?"
Baylee ... "Ummm I look like Sleeping Beauty!"

4/7/08
I had bent down to put on Baylee's shoes and she took my face in her hands and said "Mom your such a big kid huh?!"
