So it's Sping Time now...

It has been so long since I have posted anything on here...but it has been a little crazy and I never have a second to think about this. Here is a little of what we have been up to. We went to the zoo with Justin's brother and his family. It was pretty cold outside, but the kids had a blast. We have been taking lots of walks and playing at parks since it has warmed up outside. The kids are growing like crazy and it is sad. Taylor is loving being in primary and Skylar just got into nursery (THANK HEAVEN!!)... and this other little girl is coming to join our family in 5 short weeks, at most! CRAZY! I can't think too much about having 3 kids or else I freak myself out, but I know it will be ok! We have a new little niece, London, so we went down to St. George for the day a few weeks ago to see her! BJ and Katie with their little family came from St. Louis for spring break a few weeks ago so it was fun to have more family around! Conference was great!...as much as I got to hear because it is nearly impossible with kids to get much out of it, so I look forward to going back and reading all the talks again! We had a St. Patrick's day scavenger hunt with most of the cousins so that was fun and at the end of the rainbow, the girls found their fairy princess outfits! During Priesthood session, I took my girls to the park and to CPK for a girls night out. I met up with my sisters for a little bit, but I had a ton of fun with these kids!

Holiday FUN!

It was a really fun Christmas this year! We got to go up and spend it with my family in Washington. The weather was perfect the whole time except the last 2 days it started raining. The drive up and back was LONG...but we made it safe and sound! The only way I remember everything that happened is by pictures... so that is why I post so many! Here are things we did!

Before we left, we took a little break for Justin to stop studying for finals and went bowling! Fun and he is now Graduated from BYU!!! So proud of him and happy we are done with the school thing for a min.
The Sky...dancing on that bowling floor.
My family all together for Christmas... this is Christmas Eve with our matchy pj's and my grandma was able to come from CA to spend the holidays with us too.

Christmas morning... Skylar just cuddled and loved this pillow and blanket thing.. elephant.. she didn't move for a while... also with her Taylor's slippers on

We took an afternoon and headed over to Vashon island on the ferry to spend the day with friends and family. It was fun and the kids loved the boat.
Taylor down at the beach on Vashon
Justin and I got to sneak away for a night and spend it up in Seattle. It was a lot of fun to be gone from those kids for 24 hours while my parents watched them! We went to dinner, saw a movie, and did a lot of walking in the rain! It was fun!Headed back home on the ferry from our fun Seattle trip.
We finally made it home to Utah in time for the BYU bowl game for Justin and New Years Eve. Taylor thought this was the best party ever!

All the little cousins were over at Wirigs for a party and the little girls all loved dancing to the kinect dance game

At the little kids' "new year" that game at 9:00 pm we rang it in with a lot of noise, countdown, and another sparkler dance from the big kids and parents while they all watched out the window. One last treat before their bed time so that we could have a fun time as adults playing games and whatnot. There were a ton of fireworks out the back of their window at midnight and a lot of floating lanterns.. Taylor can't get over that and still sings the Tangled song whenever she talks or thinks about it!
Everything is great and we are loving the new year already. This little baby is growing healthy in me and we will welcome HER in just a few short months!

Let the Fun Begin!

Thanksgiving was great and it was filled with Wirig Family Fun! We took family pictures and so I am just getting ready to get those Christmas cards out. Life is fun and busy! Justin graduates in a couple weeks from BYU and he is busy busy at work as well. My kids are growing up so fast and it is sad but so fun at the same time. They keep me entertained and exhausted! I love my little family and I can't wait for this December month because it is jammed packed with fun-ness! We get to go home to Seattle this year for Christmas and I can't wait to spend time with my family up there! Merry December 1st everyone!
....




Oh and we are expecting our Baby #3 the beginning of May! Kinda crazy but I'm all about popping these kids out as fast as I can because being pregnant is NOT my favorite thing in the world...but bring on the kids. We find out what this one is on the 13th...

Halloween and Birthdays!

So a lot has been going on but it has been a fun past couple of weeks. Halloween was fun. We had a little neighborhood/friend trunk or treat, and we went to Justin's work party at Adobe where they deck out the whole 2 buildings for Halloween trick or treating. It was fun. Taylor really wanted to be Rapunzel, so we got the wig and everything, but it was tricky to keep on because it was so heavy. We put it on Skylar's bald head and she wore it all around. She looks funny with hair, but hopefully when she has her own, it will look awesome!






We went to
Taylor was invited to her friend Payton's birthday party where a real princess, Amera, came and told the girls stories and danced and took pictures with them. They were all so excited and dressed up in their little princess dresses. There are so many little girls in our ward that are Tay's age and they have a blast together! LOVE IT!
This girl is my sister, Larisa, and she comes twice a week to watch my kids for a couple hours while I can get away, run errands, do anything I want for myself and by myself. I LOVE it! She is the best and my girls LOVE her!
Last but not least, our little Taylor turned 3 on the 13th of November! I can't believe it and I love her so much. She is so funny and smart. She is more like my little mini me buddy I can count on to laugh at all my lame jokes and silly faces. She sings every song she has EVER heard and especially Christmas ones right now, she can HARDLY wait for Santa to come to her. Everyone is also her "best friend" these days.
Life is great and I can't wait for Thanksgiving. Stay tuned for some great updates!!

As of Late...

It has been a busy and fun past few months. We had a great summer and now that it is officially fall, we are full swing into the long sleeves, fall decorations, and little outings where we can have fun and still keep warm. Here is a little of what has been going on.

Me and My sky baby at Kara and Carter's wedding. Awesome day and we are happy that they are now our neighbors!

We took our little family down to California for a surprise for my mom's 50th birthday. All my sisters and brother were there along with my aunt and uncle. We stayed at the Malibu house which is always fun right on the beach. We went to disneyland for a couple of days and celebrated Skylar's 1st birthday!

We took a drive up A.F. Canyon this past weekend and even though most of the pretty leaves are gone, it was still fun to see all the colors and spend the time with just us.
Taylor is constantly wanting us to put her princess dress ups on...so we took it to Malibu with us and she chased her cousin Peter around wanting to dance with Prince Peter all day every day.
Yes...She is now 1 year old! Crazy. She is so funny and cute and we love her. She has been kissing us goodnight while hanging upside down, since she was born and now when it is bedtime, she doesn't let us kiss her unless she is upside down.


Justin went out of town for work a while ago and I was dreading being home alone all week. He left me with a survival kit basket when I woke up...
There is a little "beach" by our house that we went to with our playgroup girls, so fun!

Sky has been walking since she was 9 months old...she is a little crazy mover

Life is great...More to come very soon..................
