Enjoying the Moment
This is what I did with the boys in between sessions of conference today: I’ve always been one to appreciate a good fort. And after hearing Elder Ballard’s talk this afternoon, I didn’t even feel bad about getting the kids down an hour late for their nap, or missing the first 20 minutes of the…

YUCK
So Danny randomly threw up late Wednesday afternoon. Since then we’ve had 3 days of disgusting diapers – but no more throw up, no fever, and a perfectly happy and energetic little boy who has only been eating slightly less than usual. I was hoping it was more of a fluke than anything else –…

Evidence!… And Some Eggs.
Since the last post, I went on an unofficial mission to find some photographic evidence that I did indeed birth Danny. Obviously my blonde and blue little boy is very much his fathers’ son – but check out these pictures of me and Danny, both at about 3 months old… There you have it! Proof…

Growing Big and Strong
Lately it seemed like the kids were growing out of their clothes left and right. So yesterday I busted out the kiddie scale and tape measure looking for some concrete evidence – and I got it! Glad to know it’s not just my imagination… For record keeping’s sake, here are their stats: Jacob (4.5 years…

Good Times
A week or two ago we were able to hit Disneyland again as a family. This time we stayed late for Fantasmic and the fireworks show. And all I can say is – it was MAGICAL. Brent and I are really enjoying this phase with the boys (before we add another baby to the brood)…

A Wild Night
A few weeks ago we got together with some friends for a little Guitar Hero party at Lauren’s house. Judging from these pictures (and the noise level that night) – I think the REAL party was going on in the kids’ room… They stayed up waaaay past their bedtime and lived it up! Complete with…

Look on the Bright Side
It’s been a busy couple of days for us. Saturday night we went on a nice harbor cruise for Brent’s work (where they had the best cheesecake ever!!) and my parents came into town. Sunday my sister’s baby was blessed and we spent the day with the fam. Sunday night I was hit with a…

Zookeeper/Park Ranger
Tami left the kids with me on Friday. Actually she left the kids with me the whole weekend, but Friday I was all alone with 4 kids, (Getting my good deed for the year out of the way — I agreed to watch Tyler and Wendy’s brood because my job is so much more awesome…

BUSTED
Here’s what we’ve been up to lately… After coming home from Utah, we were home for about 3.5 days. In that time we celebrated New Year’s Eve like this: Brent tinkering away on his computer and me swooning over Edward until 10:15 pm when I decided it was time for sparkling cider and off to…

With a Little Creativity…
So I’ve been stressing over the fact that we are pretty overdue for a new post. It’s been 10 days – which is a long stretch of silence for the Nef blog. I kept waiting for something interesting to happen – but sorry, nothing has! I was even wishing for someone to tag me just…
