Mother's Day

So in our Church for Mother's Day, the kids gave all the mothers M&M cookies in a jar for a gift. If you never received a cookies in a jar before its pretty straight forward. All the dry ingredients that are needed to make the cookies; i.e. flour, sugars, salt, baking powder and soda, etc., are placed in a mason jar. So all you have to do in making the cookies is add all the wet ingredients, mix it, and you have cookies a lot quicker that making it yourself from scratch.


About a week later for our Family Home Evening, we decided mix the cookies. It was really fun and great to watch Cam dig in with his hands to mix the cookies.

After awhile Cam just sat back and watched as Daddy did the rest of the work. Actually he got bored with it rather fast, but the cookies turned out really yummy.

Pretty yummy Mother's Day gift!

The Kids

So not to long ago I was looking at some pictures of when Cam was a new born and it made me wonder, what similarities or differences that Cam and Nathan have to each other.

Here they are...Can you tell which is which? :D Can't tell that they are brothers can you? ;-)

Of course, we all know that the kids are a lot like Mike and I.


But we are one big happy family! :D

And We Started Blogging Again...

We are ashamed.

Here is a short list of what has happened since we last blogged:

  • Nathan learned to roll over.
  • Dani cooked AMAZING pancakes.
  • I took finals.
  • I started a new semester.
  • I began to study for finals again.
  • Nathan started crawling.
  • We started using the phrase, "Cam, don't ride your brother."
  • Christmas.
  • Earthquakes in Japan.
  • The Government didn't shut down. (That's right, we were so slow that Congress accomplished something--kind of--since the last time we blogged).
  • It snowed a lot.
  • Snow melted.
  • Snowed again.
  • Melted again.
  • Entire governments were overthrown in the Middle East.
  • Thanksgiving.
  • Cam learned the ABC song. When he can't fall asleep he sings himself to sleep with it. Strange noises at 11:30 pm? "Q, R, S, T, U V..."
  • Saw Harry Potter 7.1 in the theater.
  • Harry Potter 7.1 came out on DVD.
I could go on. Instead, here's a video of Cam & Nathan.
