Life According to My Cell Phone

I got a bit lazy and didn't post cell phone pictures for a while, so they pilled up in my inbox of my email. "De-cluttering" time came so these are in all sorts of order, but capture some good moments.


The drive home from Idaho on Christmas Day, she was only awake for the first and last 15 minutes of the drive. Thank you Santa again for the car DVD player with dual screens. 


She loves the marshmallows and can pull them out of the bag without even looking! (This picture makes her look so incredibly old)


The benefits of having a food blogger friend=free stuff! She's so kind! Check her out at http://www.ohsweetbasil.com/


When we went to Midway with Tyler and Cassidy in Nov. I made the best $2 purchase at a thrift store. It stayed in the car CD player all December. 


Don't you always look this cute when you iron (while eating an apple).
 [Iron was unplugged and cooled]


This was this week. This is the face of a girl who followed me around screaming/crying while I was on the phone with the dr.'s office. Apparently she wants to know what as bad as we all do about her spots.


We had lots of sick days in Nov/Dec.


Ignore that she is in her undershirt. Sometimes it is a process getting dressed and we have to take a break.


A new sleeping trend with her is her hands up.



Ashley Balmforth and I used to drive by this on our way to Sister Toy's math class. I generally got her because I always remembered where it was. Once we started leaving bruises on each other we quit playing the game. She sent me this picture a while ago because she drove by it and it was still there.


This is the mug I always used at Granma's house when I was sick. When I was super sick in December, I busted it out and it helped make me feel better. :)


If I were a "Hashtagger" #bringingsexyback #plaidflannelshirt




It wasn't hard enough just putting it on her lap so she stood up and used the wall to have it hard behind. (ignore the crazy bed head.) 


Somebody's daddy taught her to eat chocolate chips.


The egg box


Watching Polar Express with Daddy.


Reading herself a story before bed.


She found a seat when we were waiting for the dr at Primary's.


The coolest toy in the waiting room at Primary's.



Ready for church!


Some days this is the only way I get my hair done.


A morning shave.


Sorry this pic is so so pixilated, this girl gets the craziest bed head!


She also sleeps like a monkey.


After a long day sick she fell asleep in my arms. She's growing way too fast so I enjoyed it!

Enjoy the Journey.

Thanksgiving Via Cell Phone

I just cleaned out my email from cell phone pictures from the last few months. Here are some from Thanksgiving documented by Karissa and her iPhone. :)






Isn't that what the hole in the book is for?



Bathroom trips are always more fun with Emmaline!




Granpa's shoes!


Enjoy the Journey.

Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving was wonderful! My parents came down and Karissa and Emmaline surprised me and came too! I had been thinking maybe they would, but the day before I finally convinced myself they really weren't coming. 
We had a wonderful Thanksgiving and were able to have my dad's cousin LeAnn and his Aunt Glady come. It was so fun to have them with us! I wish I would have taken a picture! 
Thanksgiving night Emery woke up (she was sleeping in our giant closet so Karissa could have her room with Emmaline) and I had Jared just bring her into our bed. Truly a prompting from the Lord as fifteen minutes later as she was laying down she started puking everywhere. I was able to hurry and sit her up so she didn't choke on it, but I still got covered. Jared woke my mom up for back up because there was no option but a bath for her then (at 2 a.m.). Then I went downstairs with my mom and Emery went back and forth between us and threw up one more time. Finally she wanted to go upstairs. We went upstairs and she cuddled with Jared and fell back asleep. 

Don't worry, that minor set back (including not going to bed until 1) didn't keep Suzy Shopper and Jared from Black Friday shopping! (Besides the shopping they did Thurs night-Santa REALLY needed to pick up a few things). 

Other than that we did a little bit more leisurely shopping, a trip to Cabellas, and just enjoying each other's company. If you want a really good laugh, ask my dad to do the E-I-E-I-O commercial, oh wow. :) 

Granpa and Jared were able to watch the girls a few times, or shall I say Jared watched everyone sleep, so we could make a run to Old Navy. :) 

I'm so thankful they were all able to come! We LOVED IT!















We finally got to meet Michael and Felicia's baby Alex! He is a doll, and we'd keep him in a second!








So lady like.









Aunt Karissa let Emery watch HSM on her phone... she was the favorite. (ignore my immodest child in only her undershirt).

Enjoy the Journey.
