I am certifiably the worst blogger mom ever! I have an aversion toward technology, but know it serves it's amazing purposes. So here's a little catch up on the first of 2009 for me and my family, I plan on doing a lot of posts to catch me up. It definitely encompasses a very, very small part of all that we have done, I'm starting from the beginning of the year and going to about March, so here we go:

Haylee, me, and Marlee
These are some of my very special young women
when I was a YW leader in California, I love these girls!
They are amazing singers and I had come to watch them perform!

I rarely put photos of myself in my blog, but when I took this I had hit a new lowest
weight for me (my Junior year in Highschool weight). I was so excited and feeling
so great! THEN, I found out I was pregnant with baby #5 the next week!

This was a highlight of the circus for the kids to ride the elephant with dad!

February 9th 2009
London woke up to a bike for her 5th birthday!

She wanted it to rain gumballs on her birthday so Dax and Daddy got a hold of the genie at Disneyland to grant her wish for her, so it really did rain gumballs for her birthday!

Birthday Pancakes

I took her on a special date with her friend Seraphine to get their nails done, shop at the mall, and go to Chuck E Cheese, what a day!

Little Pearl's birthday was 5 days later on February 14th, yes Valentines Day.
We can't believe our Pearl Valentine has already blessed our lives for a whole year.

We still had our Valentines date that evening after we celebrated Pearl's birthday! We chose Red Lobster and did not regret it, we had a great time together. I just love this man more and more!

Sledding with my Young Women at Soldier Hollow. Yes I did sled ALL 2 hours with the girls and had a blast!

The Melting Pot in Salt Lake with Paul's mom Jo Ann and her very serious boyfriend Jim. We laughed a lot and enjoyed getting to know Jim better. We can already hear the wedding bells going off for these two!
