Christmas all over again!

Well, Cliff and I finally bought Maika a his wagon for Christmas. He likes it much better than the battery powered vehicle. In fact, these are two different days that they are in the wagon. The first night I gave them a ride and they wanted more and more. The kids wouldn't get out of the wagon, so they sat in it for about 20 more minutes waiting for Cliff to get home and pull them around. It is nice to have it if I am just going to the neighbors around the corner for a little visit. Gotta love Radio Flyer!

Kalena's Birthday Party

So this was Kalena's Party. She was so excited for it all day long. I had put the princess table cloth on last night and so that is the first thing she saw when she woke up. Her answer for every question was, "It's birthday party for Kalena and princess cake." I kept asking her what she wanted to eat for breakfast. The options were cereal or eggs and all she would tell me was, "No mom, it's Kalena's princess cake." She even hollered it a couple of times at me until it finally sunk in that her cake wasn't for breakfast. She loves having her friends over to play which are mostly her cousins that she hardly ever gets to see since we have moved to Lehi. Her new friend, Leany, who is from our ward came and it is always good for her to see her older friend, Jenna, from American Fork. The top picture is the cake that I made, not too bad for a first timer. The last picture is of them getting ready to do pushups. Cliff said there is nothing like having them work off all that ice cream and cake. What champs they all are!!! Thanks for all the gifts for Kalena and making it a fun day!!

Gift from Grandma

Grandma gave Kalena "my nudder princess dress" and so mommy decided to take pictures of me so she could see them right away.

My most recent project was my sister's wedding scrapbook that was supposed to be her Christmas gift, but still hasn't gotten to her. Here are some of the pages...Thanks to Cajsa who helped with the black and white pages!!!

Like father, like son

Tula'i is definitely a Fano....just a little bit whiter

Homemade wagon

these kids are always looking for entertainment. Dad decided to take one of his trucks ties to pull Maika in one of the toy bins. He was having so much fun that Kalena wanted to do it, but the only other bin that was upstairs was a small one and she wouldn't go downstairs to get a big one until she fell out of the small one 3 times. The last picture is of them being pulled together by their mom cause dad was finished with it.

Tula'i teething

What a handsome boy he is, even when teething. Tula'i has been a little bit more cranky since his teeth have decided to come in. I decided that my chin could be his teething ring since the teething rings don't really work. Every time Cliff would snap a picture, Tula'i would look right at the camera.

Puking in the New Year

Kalena doesn't mind just laying around all day and being able to watch all her favorite movies when she is sick. Last night I couldn't get Maika to drink the coke, but this morning he chugged about half a can.

I didn't get a picture of the kids throwing up, but this is what they look like the day after New Year's. Mom won't let them do anything. They have been sick for a little while, but decided to start throwing up last night. So, didn't get much sleep last night with 3 sick children. Tula'i is coughing, but thank goodness he is keeping his food down and not puking it all up.
