Happy New Year!

Happy New Year! I thought I would post some more pictures since I finally got some uploaded!

So, a couple of weeks ago we were sitting at church and my kids were getting a little restless. So, in my smartness, I pulled out my camera to let them look at pictures, kind of like a book. Eden knows how to use the camera, so I was letting her hold it and look through the pictures. Well, it turns out that she KNOWS how to use the camera and all its functions because suddenly there was a flash, and wa-la, a picture of Isaac at church! I guess it's proof we went to church that day, huh?!

This is a picture of Eden at her dance recital a month or so ago. I will have to download the video sometime because it was so cute!

So, two weeks ago Eden came into me and asked me if I liked her hair. At first I didn't understand why, but on closer examination, I realized she had AGAIN cut her bangs pretty much to the top! Apparently they were getting in her eyes (they were finally growing out enough to reach her eyes!) so she just got rid of them! Luckily that was the only part she got to, so I attempted a fix myself. This is the before picture . . .

and this is the after! Not too bad, but I did cut just a little too far on the sides and gave her some funny side bangs, but oh well! At least it wasn't as bad as the last time!

I had to get a picture of EmmaLee in, so this is EmmaLee Christmas morning. Her favorite presant by far is the little play cell phone we got her! She loves it, and takes it everywhere with her! She is actually starting to talk a little! She says the usual, mama, dada, but lately will mimick most anything, but likes to say sit (I often say it to her when she is in her highchair!) hi, bye, num-num (she if food oriented!), and like I said, she will mimick most words, even if they don't always sound as much like the real words! She also loves to chase Isaac around and it has been so fun to see the two of them playing together. He can get her to laugh in a way no one else can! It's hilarious!
So, that's about it for now. We still haven't had much luck with a job, although we have had a few contacts again, so we are hoping that maybe now that the holidays are over, we might actually hear back again from more. But, we are going to have to give our notice the beginning of next week for our place, so it looks like another move for us! We won't have to be out until the end of January, so we are still hopeful that maybe something will happen by then, but we will still have to move one way or another. And, unless we do get a job, it does look like we will be moving back in with Rob's mom. But, she has bought a new house up in Clearfield, by Layton, that has a basement apartment with three bedrooms, so at least it will still be somewhere new, with a little bit more room! Right now our best job possibility is actually for a printing place up in Layton, so maybe everything happens for a reason! But, who knows what will actually end up happening! All I know right now is that by the end of this new month, something will be different, one way or the other!!!

Your kids are getting so big! I can't believe how big cute little EmmaLee is! Maybe Eden is going to be a hairdresser someday. :) Isn't it funny how much siblings can get each other to laugh. Josh loves to laugh at Addie.
Good luck on the job front. We're keeping you in our prayers.

It was so fun to see you the other day! I will definitely call my friend, and pass your offer along. If you don't hear from me soon, call me. I'm pretty forgetful these days!

Sorry about the job, but on the positive side at least you have someplace to go. Things are rough for everyone right now and I think about you almost everyday. Good luck, something will come along eventually.

It was fun to see some pictures. I can't believe Eden cut her hair again. Good job fixing it, you can't even really tell. EmmaLee is beautiful! I can't believe how big she is. We should get together.
