Aurora is 4

We celebrated Aurora's birthday a couple of days early this year because we had a busy week. She didn't seem to mind getting her presents early. We got her a barbie car, a portable crib for her babies, and diapers. Avery bought her a transformer because she wanted one. She also received lots of cards and money. She decided to spend some of her money on a cash register.

Raptors

We went to the Ogden Raptors game a couple of weeks ago. We had free tickets and Joseph wanted Avery to see a real baseball game. Aurora was to afraid to take a picture with the mascot. We had a great time.

Busy Friday

Then that evening I went with Joseph and the kids to Avery's camp out. We forgot our camera so this is the only picture we have. Joseph brought the camera up the next morning. It was rainy so we left after breakfast. Aurora did not like that the crickets made so much noise when we were trying to sleep. We are looking forward to the future when we can go camping more often.
This last Friday was a busy day. I had Youth Conference and Avery had a family camp out with his cub scout pack. That afternoon the youth helped clean up an elderly ladies yard in our ward. They wanted to take a picture with me because they were impressed that I'd be helping in my condition. We had a good time and a great turn out.

Babies Feet

Today I went to the doctor. The past three times he has done an ultra sound the baby has been unwilling to let us see it's face. Last time the baby was pushing it's face against the placenta and the time before that it was turned the wrong way. Today it had it's hand and the cord in front of it's face. So we'll see if we ever get to get a good look before it's born. But at least we can see that it has all ten toes.

Fire Station

The kids got to tour a fire house today with the scouts. Avery was with his dad's pack, not his own. They had a lot of fun. There was a fireman who came down the pole just using his legs and not his hands; the kids thought that was neat. He told the kids of another fireman that goes down the pole head first.

Creative Play

Aurora used her shoes has cars for all of her dolls. She is always coming up with new ideas when she plays. Aurora and Avery are very different when is comes to play. She absolutely loves playing with toys and Avery would rather play video games. It interesting to see how different kids can be.

Lagoon

All four cousins went on this ride together.


This weekend we had a great family reunion with Joseph's side of the family. On Monday everyone broke off into groups and did there own thing. We went with Josephs brothers family to Lagoon. The kids all enjoyed the rides. It is so much fun to watch each of their expressions.
