THANKSGIVING.....Indian Casino?

yup, thats right. JOsh adn I went to an Indian Casino for our WONDERFUL thanksgiving FEAST! It was a HUGE buffet of every nationality of food. We were in Rancho Cordova with my Dad and Mindy. I cant even begin to tell you how much we miss them. It was amazing. I loved it!

dude

how lame is this! friday night we had a game and beat the team who one the championships last year. So I was on a super high....We had a game the following morning and I got sick. super lame. So I missed out on the big game and I didnt get my cool t-shirt they were going to give out.
Wierd weekend, bailey got the flu-i honestly dont remember the last time she got sick. oh, yes I do, when she was 18 months.
I got another wonderful sinus infection. Boy. I just love those. I wish I got one every week. We are suppose to leave for San Fran on tuesday but who knows now, with my sinus infection love affair I just might be doomed to stay home. I sure hope you are feeling well and that your families are healthy too.

MY NEW BABY!

We have a new addition into our family! Its a Nissan 2006 Pathfinder! It fits 8 people and its the bomb dig.
So I found a sport that I would like to be good at! Volleyball. Ive got a killer serve. Weve done well this season and tonight is one of our last games and IM going to ROCK it on my serves. Im mean, just be glad you are not the receiver of my 35 mph serve. Its cool too because the other team just doesnt know whats coming and BAM! they get it right in the FACE! Its liberating! sad to say. Luckily you dont play with me so you arent holding any grudges. Im tellin ya, tonight im going to do it again, and when I spike it WATCH OUT! oh well, BBALL is next up for church sports and Im way stoked for that! I wish volleyball would last all year round though. :)
Yes, I'll take a picture of my pimped out ride in a little bit. :) peace


Sydney is so sweet! Getting molers is not fun though. She gets like 2-3 teeth at a time~! talk about pain. Poor little love. I always want to remember how she will say something just to make you laugh. Like, "popsicle" then she will do this cute smile and laugh and hug me, then shell do it all over again. Its so cute. I love the way she runs. She just loves balls, riding bikes, she call it her "bite",books, and the latest: turbo jam. Yep, thats right, she asks for it all the time. Its a cardio work out video with this cute spazy blonde kicking and punching all over. she asks for it at least once a day since Ive started doing it. She will kick her leg out and let air out of her mouth at the same time to let me know thats what she wants to watch. Its funny becuase I'll put it on for her, after its on she'll watch and do it for about 10 seconds then walk over to read a book. EVERY TIME. Im wondering why not play with toys...nope, its a book and turbo jam for sydney. She's counting to three alot. its so cute, 'do, two, dee!" She loves to jump off of our couch head first. Shes absolutely fearless. When she sees the older kids doing something crazy she'll go right up and do it too! She loves to hit. Especially children who are older than her. and When I grab her by the arm and firmly, very firmly tell her no...you know what she does? LAUGHS. All I ever hear in our little car is "sydney hit me, sydney hit me" over and over again! She's great at multitasking.
Shes hitting bailey with her right hand while in her carseat, and kicking Taylor in the head with her left foot. :)
SO not funny at the time. But hilarious when I tell the story. She's the cutest dancer Ive ever seen, She should be on dancing with the stars! Shes always surprising me with her new dance moves! It just amazes me how animated she is at this age, and how aware she is of her capabilites.



And ok, how cute are they? Totally baileys personality to show off her cool trick. Bailey is all about telling her mom how it is. I know NOTHING in her eyes. LIke today, we made a huge fort outside for the girls to play in. Bailey said, "look mom, the top of the tent is a trampoline" I warned here what would happen if she jumped in the middle of it and how bad it would hurt her and the others girls in the tent. But hey, what do I know? Who cares what mom says, she's just trying to control me and ruin the fun!, Bailey says, "i know I know" well......
Lo and behold, I walk away and one minute later I hear screaming and crying and the tent is down. Hey maybe moms not an idiot after all! But she wont admit to that Im sure!


all in all She is a very bright smart kid! I went to a parent teacher conference last friday and came to find that Bailey is the most popular kid in her class. There are three boys in particular who are so in love with bailey its driving them mad. One boy, well call him D was sitting in a corner of the classroom and the teacher came to him and asked what was the matter. D had an angry look on his face, " I am so in love with Bailey, and she's over there playing with Ryan" The teacher told him to try to play with her...then they all went outside to play. D didnt know what to say, the teacher told him that maybe he could ask her to go down the slide with him. So, D goes over to Bailey like a lamb to the slaughter and asks, "Hey Bailey, you wanna go down the slide with me?" baileys answer, "Nope...........I'm riding my bike".
Its so cute, She is just happy to be herself. She's very confident in who she is and likes to do her own thing.

Oh my sweet little Tayla Tay 8 months old already? wow, time flies. She sits up, but its so sad if she ever falls back its scares her so much. I hate to say it but, she is SO ADORABLE when she's whaling! her face is priceless.. of course I cant get a picture of it becuase Im holding her. But somehow Ive just got to! I'll miss it so much someday. She smiles for EVERYONE. She lights up like a christmas tree when she sees me! and laughs so hard when Sydney is doing her turbo jam. Or anytime really, She's always giggling at her sisters. Taylor is so fun to entertain. When we read books, well, we dont... shell eat the corner. Everytime I pick her up she hugs me and pinches the fat under my arms. Yeah, she pinches it so hard that I actually cry out a little "yelp!" I seriously LOVE her laugh. Like, nothing makes me happier. I will walk into the kitchen and all three of my children will be laughing together. It happens often. I feel just so lucky. I dont what I did in Heaven to get such a reward here. OH yes, a little update, Taylor is no longer on antibiotics! YES! Her reflux is gone and shes looking goood! She starts laser treatments for her hemangeioma in a couple of weeks! Shes just getting all fixed up! Merry Christmas to you Taylor! I've never had laser treatments or surgery and Im 25, Little Taylor has me beat and shes not even a year old. She's a tuff little stinker! She is very good at jumping when I tell her too and tap tapping on her toys. Shes not that big into patty cake like my others were at this age. but thats cool, everyone has there likes and dislikes.

HALLOWEEN


This costume on sydney is so cute because it squishes her cheeks together. Just look at those cheeks. This year for halloween syd had the door aproach down. She would stay ahead of the other kids and knew what to say when shet up to the door. "chee-a-cheet" and then "deetsoo" (thankyou). She ran the whole time. Bailey fell asleep before she did. This girl has some serious drive. we had so much fun. here were the rules for Halloween and Candy: No candy until the events of the evening take place. after that you dont have to ask, just pile in as much as you want until you go to bed. And Bailey did just that. :) you'll see.




my little mermaid. already in the candy.



Bailey and her friend Emily at the ---TRUNK OR TREAT---

This paragraph is for the picture up top. sorry...:)
ok, as if you cant tell....Bailey is a BARBIE mermaid, Sydners is cheer bear, Taylor was a ladybug but...the costume was a little hot. Josh is a sad BYU football fan because they lost to TCU the past week and I am a woodland fairy. Love my wings?



ok, does this even look like me? who is that? tooo much fairy makeup there ambyr! And a little excited for halloween? I'd say. Hey, this is my cool friend NOAH! Josh and I love doing couple dates with her and Casey. See you guys wednesday!












Bailey and Syd workin it at the door. Sydneys ready to go in.








Make up? or REAL? ........its all real. cool huh. Bailey's old scab broke loose at the park. she came inside saying "hey mom, look at this....cool huh?" Personally I would have been in tears.

Man, I just love my family. I love being an american. I love witnessing history. I love being a part of if. Man, I just LOVE my life with Josh.
Bailey says she loves me so much. She loves me more than California, Las Vegas and Brooklyn. I sure feel pretty special.
