Molly's 1st birthday (and several other things)

I am not the best at staying current on this blog. Sorry! Also, if you do not like pictures you should probably not even bother with this next post. It is just several pictures of our kids. They go in order from newest to oldest. Let's start with a little trip to Utah Lake to throw some rocks.













Every day with Sam is an adventure. He is way into costumes lately. He dresses like Spiderman to go to the store. We really need to start taking more pictures of his many different outfits. Here are some to hold you over until we get more.



These are Zoe's boots. Not sure where the pants ended up.

Yes, he is wearing s carseat mirror along with his summer pajama shorts and Carson's winter pajama shirt. The outfit was not complete without the sword.


Happy birthday Molly Grace!!!!!


Molly's first birthday cupcake. She is so stinkin' cute. She basically just smashed it up and smeared it all over herself.








Dad took the kids to the park one evening and managed to get some super cute pictures of Sam and Zoe even though they were messy from the day. He manages to amaze me every so often.



Cinco De Mayo at Ito and Ita's


We did not select the pinata this year, but we could not have chosen better. It matches Sam perfectly. He has been wearing his old dragon Halloween costume as a jacket lately. This just goes along with our silly little Sam and all of his costumes.




Molly gets so excited when she manages to get into a tote or box or bucket.

Every year for Easter, we go to Anthony's parent's house. The kids colored some eggs.

Molly loves candy!

I have no clue why Sam decided to wear his hat like this for the rest of the day.

Anthony's family does an egg hunt every year that consists of foil wrapped Whopper eggs and gummy worms. I do not always understand their traditions, but they are growing on me more and more each year.







This year we tried a new "tradition" of allowing the kids to plant a little garden.



These are from the Easter egg hunt at our house.





Here are a few pictures from our Spring stuff that Anthony just gave me.



Carson and Parker did not want to wear their new outfits yet, so they just had some pictures taken in the clothes they had on.




Molly's first bubble bath.

Molly found a bag of licorice in my purse and decided to help herself.

Zoe is obsessed with volcanoes. Here she is going through her huge book of volcano photos with her brother and Uncle Peter.

Sam loves to cuddle with Zoe. We went in to move Sam into his own bed and this is what we discovered. If you look closely you can see the big puddle of drool coming from Zoe's mouth.


I finally got sick of diapers and Sam, and decided that he was going to learn to be a big boy. I took away his diapers and put him right into underwear. Three days later, he was potty trained. No joke! As requested, his reward was a chocolate cake with two "magical helper spiders" and FIRE.
