Meet Little E


While I was shoveling the walk yesterday Ethan built this little snowman. His name is little E. Ethan is so proud of his little creation! I would type more, but it's difficult to type and hold Elizabeth's bottle at the same time.

Do you remember this book?

I used to love this book. I had it when I was a little girl and it's so funny to see my kids love it! Ethan and Izzy just giggle every time I read it to them. Today Ethan grabbed it and began reading it to Izzy. Those are the moments that make my heart sing.
Every time Grover gets upset because we "turned another page", Izzy says, "Oh no!" This is her 'reading' it on her own as she does numerous times a day.

Ethan's Church Book

Going to Church

We learned a new song

Someone taught us something

We learned another song

This time Mom taught us something


Ethan made this little book in Sacrament at Church. There was a high councilman speaker, a rest hymn, and then I spoke. He showed me his book when the meeting had ended and I couldn't wait to show everyone! What a stud!

Big Stretch

Izzy being a little parrot. She loves to copy Corey when he stretches. Isn't that so funny? Her leg warmers just add to the whole picture.

Not Quite Tall Enough


Izzy has discovered a whole new world thanks to this step stool. She carries it everywhere. With it she can reach the countertops, climb on our bed, steal Ethan's toothbrush, etc. She certainly has a huge amount of determination! I love it...most of the time.
