The big move to Utah is almost done so here are a few memories of the past few weeks...
Mikayla looking ado"red" and clueless that we are leaving her "lovely" brown carpet behind!
Okay...yes I'm sure there are much worse faces and pictures of me than this...seriously but this was taken with our last bag (for a while) of Kearnels Popcorn...and I was beating my husband in the game "chubby bunny" dont worry no pickles for me...JOnathan can't even play this game...so now I have something to back up my no pickles ever theory. By the way...this was also taken after packing all day and having a few moments to ourselves with Mikayla asleep...fun times!
Happy girl with daddy home from work...this is his favorite outfit..Osh-Kosh-BGosh overalls!
This was Mikaylas way of showing that she was helping pack on the last day in Canada.Yummy sock...and of course rolling into a desk!
WE are on the move! At Aunt Charlotte & Uncle Pauls house...Mikayla learned how to slide on the hardwood floors...the best was when she got stuck in a corner and was trying to play with the doggie (Hank) and she was tickling his paws...then she realized that he moved because he didn't want to be bothered and she started screaming.
See look I like sliding...now for the crawling part.... uh oh!
The puppies in their own back yard....well to make a long story short our fence as you can see wasn't able to be put to the ground due to the weather....so Addie "sort of" has a back yard....plus a new 50 foot rope for now! Corrina on the other hand...well she loves being able to chase Addie to the end of his rope and taunt him from just far enough away that he can't get her!
There is a baby in there...she finally realized I had put her in a basket after the last stuffed animal was placed...too bad she can't be as quiet as these animals!
Yummy lunch...Chicken noodles..and pears...and wait....I think there is some room for grahm crackers too. Mikayla loves talking while she is eating now..it is pretty funny.
Corrina also loves it when Mikayla eats...as you can see we have a regular floor sweeper! Well that is until bedtime thats when the real cleaner comes in....I wish there really was a cleaning Gnome! but for now its just mommy when she has time!
This video is of Mikayla and Daddy playing..and to show our friend Greg that there is a time and place that you can toss a baby with out obstructions of ceiling fans.
The last update is the massive -compared to Calgary- snow we've had. Last Sunday we woke up to a 5 foot snow drift in front of our garage so we thought we couldn't get out to go to Stake Confrence...our first Sunday here! WEll we finally shimmied the car into the smaller of the two garages and went out ...down the street and got stuck for 45 minutes in a 2 foot snow. The best part was I was in heals....no gloves/jacket...and had a screaming baby int he back while JOnathan and 2 random neighbor kids came out to help shovel us out....The moral of the story is...sometimes its not worth going to church....Heavenly Father won't be upset if we stay warm/safe and away from crazy snow drifts. So now we have a 5 plus foot pile of snow and growing in our front yard. it seems to never end here!
Last..but not least....is a huge THANK YOU to all of our friends in Calgary that helped Jonathan and My Dad move us down here....as well as a huge help once they got down here of Jonathan's family....His Brother Paul and Sister-in Law Charlotte helped out so much ....I can't even list everything they helped us with on here! Also his Mom and Step-Dad Robert....shoveling the layers of ice off our driveway and installing window blinds! Thanks again for everyone's help we couldn't have done this with out you!
