A quick update

These pictures are really cute so I wanted to share them:


I took the kids on a walk one night around the neighborhood to look at Christmas lights. Hailey fell asleep on our walk. When we got home Miles noticed she was asleep and said, "How cute!" and leaned over and gave her a kiss on the cheek. I want to always remember it! I love both of these sweet kids.


Miles and Hailey at the ward Christmas party.


Hailey "reading" a book on the couch--a thick book with no pictures! She's so funny!


Many mornings when I ask her how she wants her hair done she will say "fold up my hair!" This is what "fold up" means.

Miles LOVES to build things lately. He built this "design" for a "house" out of jenga blocks. He put together a "helicopter" with his Trios this morning. He is always putting things together. I think Santa might get him some legos!!

Quotes 2016

Clay was jumping from tile to tile in our kitchen, then kind of spinning on each tile, careful to stay within the square shape of each tile. I asked, "What are you doing?" and Clay responded, "I'm square dancing!"

Clay, said every time he prays: "Help us to be like the Gospel."

Clay, said another time he prayed for each person in our family that they could "do good" in either school or work when he got to me he said: "...Please bless mom that she can go to the gym." I guess that sticks out to him!

We were walking into Wells Fargo when Paige saw a man with shoulder length hair and a beard getting into his car. I was holding Paige and she grabbed my face and turns my head toward the man. Then she says, "Mom, there's Jesus!" (November 2016)

Paige: "I look like nursery!" She said this as she looked at herself in the mirror after I got her dressed for church and had just finished doing her hair. (March 2017)

"remembery" -Clay (Memory) October 2017

In school Miles was learning about the Great Depression. He was talking on and on about it to me and started talking about Herbert Hoover and Franklin Roosevelt. He was trying to tell me about the president known as FDR (Roosevelt) but instead he kept saying, "KFC" I couldn't figure out what he meant until he said, "You know, he was president after Hoover, everybody called him KFC". I had to explain he was actually known as FDR! (October 2017)
