What!!!! More????



I had my suspicions about our mama bunny (did you know that they can get pregnant immediately after birth?) My suspicions were confirmed on Thursday when she began pulling her fur out to make a nest and then proceeded to have four more baby bunnies!!! Hopefully there will be no more posts on this subject. The picture is from a little over 24 hours after they were born. They look ugly, but you would not believe how soft and velvety they are.

Oh and here is one more picture of the first litter, for comparison.

First Hair Cut




Jacob had his first hair cut yesterday. It is was quite the production as it required both Aaron and I to accomplish it. The band-aid on Jacob's forehead has nothing to do with getting his hair cut (he pulled the yogurt maker down on his head.) Sophie took the pictures during the haircutting process!!!

The Three Kids




Ok, there is nothing really special about these three pictures, except that they are of my beautiful children.

#1 Sophie playing model for the camera, maybe I am biased , but I really think she could be one!!!
#2 I was taking a lot of pictures at the time and Ben really wanted me to tell them to say cheese, so I did and this is him saying "Cheese!!!"
#3 Jacob (Kooba) is obsessed with the older kids shoes. The other day Sophie opened her door and instead of going for her knick knacks like he usually does, he went right for these pink shoes. This was not his first time wearing them. He is getting molars, and I couldn't get a pictures without his hands in his mouth. Keep in mind Jacob's hair for the next post.

Soup

I have decided since I like cooking so much, I want to put some of my favorite recipes on here. Then I can share and I have easy access to them when I need them. Here is one to start.

Mac and Cheese Soup-

2 cans chicken broth
1 package carrots, broccoli, cauliflower (frozen)
6 oz small shell noodles
1.5 cups milk
1.5 cups shredded cheddar cheese
2 Tbs. flour

Boil broth, add noodles, cook 5 min. Add veggies, cook about 5 more
min. Pour milk into resealable container. Add flour, shake to mix.
Stir into pasta mixture. Cook and stir until thickened. Add cheese
and cook until melted. Makes 6 servings

Ben's First Assignment

Sunday Ben was given his first assignment in Primary. He was asked to lead the primary in the 1st article of Faith (simple statements about our beliefs as member if the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.)

The little girl before him stood at the podium and said the opening prayer, then it was Ben's turn. I explained that I was going to whisper in his ear, but he needed to say it loud so everyone could hear.

As he started to recite the article of faith he bowed his head into the podium. I tried to get him to lift his head so he could project, but it was then that I realized that he had bowed his head and had his hands clasped in prayer. He very reverently prayed the first article of faith. Maybe you had to be there to appreciate it, but it was very cute!!!

Creations



Hello All-
Sophie has her own room with an art desk and she loves to create lots of different things there. She spent a long time on this caterpillar, made from playdoh. She was very proud of them. I especially love his smile!!!

Bunny Blog





I am going to have to rename this website to the Bunny Blog if I take too many more pictures of our baby bunnies. These photos are of the group when we first found them in the cage and just last night to show how much they have grown. Also our favorite bunny that we are probably going to keep, again a before and after.

Legos


I have just this one photo from a New Year's gathering. There is nothing New "Yearsy" about it. Just two of my boys entirely enthralled with Legos.
