A few things....



First off I have a confession to make. I love the movie "Cheaper By The Dozen". I bought it the other week at wal-mart for 5 dollars, and Becca and I have watched it about 3 times already! Why do I love this movie... Because it is completely cheesy, and I love a good cheesy movie. And it has a lot of fuzzy warm heart felt moments :). So I feel better now having got that off my chest.

I also wanted to write down a warm fuzzy heart felt moment of my own. I love my husband and little girls! They are just the best. I woke up yesterday after having a wonderful Sunday after noon nap (thanks Nathan :). And I found Nathan with Becca & Rachel in Beccas room playing with toys, and it just made my little heart melt to see them all in there playing together. And did I mention it was snowing??? Yes I love the snow! It was one of those little moments I know I will remember always.

Lastly I wanted to share a few things the girls have been doing in recent days.

-Becca Put together a (big) puzzle together all by herself today (she was so proud) She made Rachel come over to see her masterpiece :).

-Becca has also had an obsession with the sacrament prayer lately, all day long she pretends like she is blessing (her basket of fake fruit). I don't know why this suddenly came about, but Nathan and I try real hard not to laugh. She also calls everyone Jesus. Last night we tried to have a little lesson with her, and we asked her who her sister was (family was the lesson). She whispered "Rachel is Jesus".

-Becca also started Primary this month (cry). She was so excited. This girl loves kids like you would not believe. Any time we go anywhere, she says hi to them. The best is when they are like 6 years older then her, as she will shout out to them "HI KIDS"!!!!

-Rachel, has become the master of the stairs, and wants to stand on her feet all day. She doesn't want to be on the ground.

-Rachel can eat like nothing I have ever seen! She truly could eat all day!

-Rachel also like Becca is a blanket baby, however she tries when ever the chance permits to take Beccas blanket and loves to get a rise out of her! And believe me she gets one every time.

They have both really come to enjoy each others company (Becca not as much as Rachel). It is very sweet being the mother to watch these girls. I feel thankful everyday for my family.

Rachel is the one that bullies Beccas around.

Okay, in that first picture of Rachel, the profile, she looks like Becca to me. I can start to see some resemblance. I love your girls. They are so cute. I remember Nathaniel went through the sacrament obsession phrase. Isn't it the cutest? And so sweet that she thinks everyone is Jesus. Maybe she just sees him everywhere she goes. Hooray for tickets to come visit us!!!!
