New baby for my sis

My sister Michelle had a new baby last week. His name is Eli Chase Hawkes (there was 9 months worth of talk for that name!) and he is wonderful! Check him out on her blog; her link is on my page for michelle hawkes.

This is my life!!

Christmas Day

Work it out, Guitar Hero!

Gold's Gym Par-tay!!

So much good food and good times at the Gold's parties! I love seeing all my friends dressed up and with their boys.

Rona is a superstar so she gets her own slide show!!

Kenj and his hat

I needed some hats for the boys on short notice and my mom grabbed this one from Shopko. I didn't think much about it, but Kenji loves his hat and will wear it all day, even during naps!

Bath time

Let me just say that giving them their baths is such hard work! Most babies want to swim and have adventures, but trying to keep the two of them from bonking their heads and drinking my shampoo is quite the challenge! But it is sooo much fun, too. Hope you get a good laugh out of these!

Little Monkeys

We like to let them wear their Halloween costumes for fun!

Momma lovin' on Carter

Pre-Thanksgiving visit to Ogden

We went to visit the Hideshima's house in Ogden since we probably won't see them until Christmas. And Aunty Tricia announced she is preggo!!

Kenji has talent

So we have found that Kenji can fall asleep any way he needs to. Here are two occasions we caught!!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We had a great day and were able to spend time with both of our families. We left Kenji with my family and Carter with Uncle Andy while we went to see Enchanted. So much fun and a good memory of the holiday.

Happy Halloween

What a cute fairy devil and her best friend Sydnee, the mean cheerleader!

Sick Babies

This week we had to go to the doctors because Kenji had an ear infection and they both had croup. We got some antibiotics and a nebulizer and they are starting to feel better.

Hannah Montana

Here are just some random pictures from our fun night out! We walked around Gateway first then headed over to the ESA. The Jo-Bros were first and then Hannah. We were lucky enough to be there for the filming of the 3D movie so we saw some of the songs twice.

Cornbelly Cornmaze @ Thanksgiving Point

We went up to Thanksgiving Point w/ a bunch of our close friends and it was very fun. Not to cold and lots of activities like the maze, a giant dinosaur spook alley, and a giant trampoline.

My bad on the recipe emails...

So i received the recipe sharing email from a couple of people, and I just could not get to it! But I wanted to share some of my favorite food tips and hopefully you will post some of yours!

1. I love Nestle Carb Select Hot Chocolate. Right before bedtime, it settles you down and the warm belly keeps you from eating a big bowl of cereal.

2. Pumpkin, Pumpkin, Pumpkin!! I use pumpkin in everything from smoothies to protein pancakes.

3. Fiber One. Nothing says good morning like the bowl of Fiber One you had yesterday afternoon!

4.Canned No Salt Added Diced Tomatoes. Pair with spaghetti squash, grilled chicken, and a sprinkle of low fat Parmesan cheese. Yum.

5. My huge gallon water bottle. If you don't have to pee desperately every 45 minutes, you aren't drinking enough!!

Any good ideas are welcome, so share! Also, use fitday.com for a way to track your daily food habits. Git 'er done!!

Disney Trip 2007

So basically it was a great trip to Cali. We had so much fun being with our kids and family. Halle had more fast passes than anyone needs in a lifetime, Clint and Andy got turkey legs, and the babes rode all the rides without a height requirement!! (Small World anyone?) We love Disneyland but prob won't be back for a year or two, so the "farewell tour" was enjoyed. And yes I am posting this at 1:30 in the morning so I hope things look okay!!
