Getting BIGGER

Ever since her cousins came to town, Kate has been obsessed with "getting bigger"- it all began when she couldn't go down the big slide at the gym with Sofia and Lilian because she wasn't tall enough. In fact, this morning she woke and said, "I am bigger than this whole house". Here's what Kate had to say about this picture she drew yesterday.

Mom: Tell me about this picture, what is it?

Kate: Its my family...

Mom: Oh, which one is which?

Kate: The first one is Taylor. The next one is Mom. This one is Dad and his head is upside down. And the last one is Kate because I'm getting really big. See, I'm bigger than all of you.

"Taylor, what did you do?" ... "I colored."

Taylor got her hands on a blue marker this morning when Mommy was out of the room. Like a true artist, she showed me her "work" and was quite proud of it, until she realized that her clothes and body weren't exactly the best canvas- oops!

Check out Kate's interpretation of my reaction...love it.

Who are these cuties? Take a guess!

I was working on a project and came across this picture of RACHEL & REBECCA it took Rachel's dad to decipher who's who ...

Time for a Little DDR

Yep, its taking over. DDR is one of our new favorite games- its seriously fun, and can be pretty addicting. Our good friends, the Shumways, just got the game so our nights usually end with a little friendly competition. You can feel the intensity just looking at this picture. Amy usually kills all of us, but its still fun to try. Maury (Povich) tries to throw his sweet Latin moves in there with his footwork, but forgets that you don't get extra points for swaying your hips like Shakira. Too bad.

On another note, we've also taken up a "small" interest in Guitar Hero- an equally fun and addicting game. Don't worry- we have dedicated ourselves to reading the scriptures for equally as long as we play both games. :)

Our kids usually get somewhat neglected as their parents are called to a little DDR competition- hence, the picture of Taylor. This is how we found her, in between rounds. Completely in the buff, but then again, so was her baby.
