Elora's 6!

Happy Birthday!

Elora is 6 yrs old now!

I forgot to get my camera out when she was opening presents and blowing out candles, so these are all the pics I have.

But she had a fun time and got lots of fun presents!

Who's who

Can you tell who's who?

(I know, the quality of the pictures gives it away)

But I would say there's some family resemblance going on here!

We were both in Kindergarten in these pics.

8 Months Old

Xander is 8 months old now.

He has 2 teeth that he bites everything with!

He is crawling around everywhere and starting to pull himself up on the furniture.

And he never closes his mouth (as you can tell from the pictures)!

There's a Storm!

This morning Danika came running to me crying. She was trying to tell me what was wrong but I couldn't figure out what she was saying between the sobs. I could tell it wasn't too serious, I figured Elora did something to upset her. So I distracted her and and after about 15 min I tried asking her why she had been crying. After thinking for a minute she said;

"The toilet was all full! There was a storm in the toilet!!" She was so serious!

The way kids describe things is so funny sometimes!

7 Months Old!

So I haven't posted any pics of Xander because this is what he looks like!

Snot, snot and more snot(and drool)!

Obviously I decided to post pics anyway!

Xander is now 7 1/2 months old.

He has 2 teeth and is super cute and happy(beside the snot)!

He is sleeping through the night(except when snot wakes him up) and he's sleeping in "the boys room" now!

He crawled a few steps last week and hasn't tried again (and that's OK with me :)), but he is really good at sitting and can almost go from his stomach, to sitting all by himself.

His eyes are not brown!

We aren't sure what color they will end up, but our other three kids all had brown eyes by 7 months.

The last thing I can think of is that his hair is growing like crazy and it's very blond!

Amy's Wedding!

Amy and Danny were married in the San Diego LDS Temple!

(the same place Pete and I were married 9 yrs ago!)

It was a little windy!! But it wasn't raining!

Danika was sick of the wind and the sun in her eyes so she took refuge on Aunt Wendy's shoulder.

Zach was not in the mood to smile :(

Cousins!

Xander and Grandma Laurie

Pete and Amy (notice Wendy dancing with Danny, that wasn't planned).

Elora turned into a dancing maniac. All the people dancing made a circle and she just jumped right in the middle and didn't stop dancing until they turned off the music. She was hilarious trying to copy all the dance moves people where doing!

Elora was so excited that she got to dance with this cute guy.
At the end of the night Elora told me that "I think I made lots of friends tonight!" and "Someone told me I'm going to be a great dancer when I'm older!"

She had sooo much fun and was walking on air as we left!

Uncle Joe with all the older nieces and nephew.
