First Day Of School

Today was the first day of school for Morgan. Joshua and Gracie had toddler group which started yesterday. Here are the photos of them dressed in school clothes. It has been a little chilly here the last few days, so they got to wear warmer clothes.

Our 1 Year Old Princess

Rachel had a fun 1st Birthday. Zach and Lori's family, the Gotschall's, Bob and Jessie Mortensen, and the Thompsons all came over to celebrate. She had fun opening gifts and eating cake. Jaxen and Joshua loved it too. They tried to eat the whole cake themselves.

Gracie loves books and she really loved the books Rachel got for her birthday.


Jaxen wanted Rachel's play phone and just couldn't put it down.

Let's Eat Cake

As tradition, we gave Rachel a piece of her cake to eat as she pleased. She wasn't sure at first, but after the first taste, she dug right in.







Boys and Girls

Gracie is all girl and Jaxen is all boy. Gracie likes to look at Magazines and Sunday Ads with Mommy. Jaxen likes to wear baseball hats and watch sports with Daddy. Aren't they cute?




Nothing But Trouble

Morgan wanted to crack open some eggs and see what would happen. So, while Mommy was downstairs doing laundry, she snuck into the kitchen, got the eggs, went into the bathroom and had most of them cracked and dumped down the sink before anyone caught on. She is just so curious and if you don't keep her busy, she becomes nothing but trouble.
