The three babies! So cute!

This baby is Black Otter.

This one is Chestnut brown.

This one is Pretty and White!

Having a blast!

It's finally nice enough outside! I let the kids out to play.

Maggie is getting chased my Abram with the camera and this was the best shot he could get of her!

Dallin playing with the hose!
Dallin getting ready to dig in the dirt!

My beautiful Amalee playing in the dirt in her pjs!

Don't they look like they are having fun?! Amalee came running in the house saying "Dallin is eating rocks!" I said "ok" Amalee: "He can't eat rocks...thats gross. Me:"I will give him a shower when he is done playing." Ama:"ok he spit it out!"

Foo Foo had babies!

We are so excited that Foo Foo had babies! My little sister has a holland lop bunny. I thought it would be a good experience for my girls to see and take care of baby bunnies. I didn't know for sure if Foo Foo was pregnant or not. Abram and I made the nest box and put it in her cage. I filled it will paper and hay and for about 3 days she would just take everything out of it. Then on Thursday morning when I went in to give her food and check the nest box she was in it and hadn't taken all the paper and hay out! I was finally about to get her out of the box and found 4 babies!!! Sad to say tho that one of the babies died:(

So here they are! 2 I think will look like the dad! And the little pink one I think will look like the mom!
My girls love they little babies and can't wait til they can hold and play with them!
Some people have asked what I'm going to do with them and I'm going to sell them! They will be ready for Christmas! I can't wait to see what they look like with their eyes open and fur all over!

Dallin 1st Birthday Pictures!

My little Dallin Abram the morning he was born!

We celebrated his first birthday with our whole family!

He had so much fun with his boy toys. These are the first boy toys in our home!

He had a blast making a mess with his cake!

I don't know if he really ate any of it. But he had fun playing in it!

Getting cleaned up after making a mess with his cake.

Happy 3rd Birthday Magdalene!

I really can't believe how fast time flies. My little Maggie in now 3 years old! Here are just a couple pics of all her Birthdays!

3 years ago she was a round faced dark haired little baby!

By her first birthday she was a cute little blondie. She was already walking. So was such a sweet little 1 year old!

2 years old and still has her round little face! She just has the sweetest little personality. I can't help but love her so so much.

So today was her birthday again. Now Maggie is 3 years old. I have started a new tradition. On my girls birthday's they get to go out with just their mommy! Yes a nice little break for me too. So today I took Maggie the the mall and she wanted pizza for dinner then we had ice cream. She also got to pick out her costume for halloween, get her hair curled, pictures taken in the picture booth, then she got to pick a little present. She got little nail polishes to share with Amalee.

Maggie is so good at sharing with her sister. If Amalee asks for anything Maggie is more then happy to give it to her.

I am so blessed to have such sweet children. I just loved having my one on one time with my sweet Magdalene Julie!

Happy Birthday I love you!

Sleeping in a toy

I was trying to get things ready for Amalee's birthday party tonight so I put Dallin in his bouncy toy. He sits in it while I don't want him to get into whatever I'm doing. I was sewing up the rips in the girls princess dresses. One second he was fussing and the next when I looked at his this is how he was!

This is the first time he has fallen asleep in a toy or by himself without me helping him fall asleep. He is so cute!

He is even using his hand as a pillow. So funny!!!

5 years ago today! Amalee

I am such a lucky mom to have Amalee for a daughter! She is such a sweet girl and I just love her. She is my little peanut! From the day she was born she has been such a tiny little girl! And since Abram has been away working she has been such a great helper without complaining (well most of the time.) I really can't believe I have a 5 year old. I'm also lucky to have a little girl that everyone says looks just like me!

Amalee is sensitive, sweet, always wanting to help, great big sister, loves Jesus, Her Heavenly Father, going to church, and learning new things.

So here is a couple of pics. One for every year she has been in our home!

The day she was born! 5 years ago!

4 years old

And this year Amalee got to go out with just her mommy! So today when I asked her what she wanted to do she said eat pizza and take pictures together. She has been wanting to take picture in the photo booth at the mall so that is just what we did! It was so nice to be with just her. We got to talk and have fun together. I think she enjoyed it a lot too cause I don't know the last time it was just me and her. She didn't want the night to end.

Cookie night with Daddy!!

Amalee has been asking to make a cookie for daddy since he came home last Saturday. So we decided to make sugar cookies so that the girls and daddy could decorate them together! As you can see they had a blast!

The 2 flower cookies were decorated my me and Abram! Aren't they cute? Haha!

Daddy with his beautiful girls!

Amalee taking a big bite out of her bunny cookie! Both Amalee and Maggie just wanted to lick the frosting off the cookie so I had to tell her to eat the whole thing!

We had a wonderful night together! It has been so nice having Abram home for more then just a weekend. He has so much fun playing with his kids. I see my kids so much more happy too when he is home. He makes them laugh so easily! We love you hunny!

Dallin's 2 teeth

Ok so I know that I have a ton of pic of my little boy on here and not so many of my girls. He is my third kid but my first boy. So I take a ton of pictures of him! This is him at 10 months! He would be such a happy boy if it weren't for teething:( He still loves to smile, laugh, and crawl around all the time! He is so much fun! I love his beautiful eyes. It's amazing how just looking at him can brighten up my day!

1st day of school pics

Just some cute pics!

Aren't they cute! Amalee is trying to read to her siblings! Dallin just wanted to eat the book! Maggie looks so happy to have her big sister reading to her!

Dallin is looking up at Maggie while playing in the dryer. I love his wonderful smile. I just have to smile every time he does!

If you blow up the pic you can see Dallin's first tooth!
He loves playing with the dryer door while I put clothes in it!

Daddy and Dallin

When Abram came home this weekend he wanted to spend as much time as he could with his kids. I should have taken more pics. He was so cute playing with them! This pic of Daddy with Dallin just melts my heart! I was trying to get the girls ready for church and he asked what he could do to help. I gave him Dallin and said to give him a bottle and that Dallin would probably fall asleep. This is the first time Dallin fell asleep with a bottle. Abram did such a wonderful job helping out. I love him so much. I know now why people say you don't know how sweet you have it til you taste the bitter. Well I have tasted the bitter and it has made having the sweet that much sweeter. I really do appreciate my hubby a ton more now that his job takes him away for a while.

Dressing Dallin Up!

So Amalee thought it would be fun to put a princess crown on Dallin. He thought it was pretty funny too! He usually takes his hats off but he didn't even try to get the crown off. I know if I let Amalee dress Dallin up she would but I don't think Abram would like that too much.

Just a better pic of Dallin with a pretty smile!

Isn't he just adorable?

Mad Mud Volleyball

I know this post is way late. Sorry. Abram and his team won the Mad Mud Volleyball turnament again this year. They had a blast. There were more teams this year and had two courts. We had a blast cheering our team on!

Amalee liked the mud alittle more this year. She still didn't want it on her face but she had fun waking in it!

Same team as last year! Kevin, Brent, Chris, Stacia, Emmalee, Bethany, Abram.

The cool thing is on the poster... The guy diving for the ball with the #4 on his shirt is Abram!

Maggie was sleeping or she would have been in this pic too:( Amalee had just cleaned off so she didn't want mud on her again.

Maggie and Dallin in the little kid water zone. Dallin loves playing in the water and so does Maggie!


Daddy and Dallin!
What a cute picture.

Dallin Laughing!

Amalee loves to make her brother laugh. Of course it isn't that hard to make him laugh because he is such a happy boy! We love having our little boy in the mix with our girls. He is a handful but we love him!

Solar Oven Cooking!

At first I was afraid to use my solar oven I didn't know what to cook or how to cook in it. But, this past Sunday my family came over for dinner and I wanted chicken. Well the crock pot could only fit one so I asked Abram if we should try the solar oven and if it didn't work at least we still had one chicken. Well it did work and it was actually better then the chicken in the crock pot! It was so moist and tastee! That is what made me try cooking in it again with a roast. (I didn't get a picture of the chicken because I was too busy trying to get everyone fed.)

So this is a picture of the first roast from the solar oven. I thought it tasted great! Abram said the outside was a little dry but the flavor was great and the inside of the roast was good and moist too.

After the roast I wanted to try a desert so I tried a chocolate cake! Again it turned out wonderful!

It got a little cloudy so it took longer then what it said on the box. But if the clouds didn't get in the way it would have taken the same amount of time as in a regular oven.

I am definitely enjoying this new toy of mine! Thank you to Abram and his willingness and help in getting our family prepared just in case!

He also likes my cooking so that is good!
