President's Day

We spent this last weekend down in St. George. Aren't long weekends the best?! It was so nice to get away to the warm[er] weather! We relaxed, took walks, went to the parade of homes, golfed, watched All-Star weekend, and just vegged out. It was fun to go down and spend time with the fam. Of course the only pictures I took were of Molly...! She's the sweetest girl and she sure knows how to cheese it up for the camera!

for fun

Just for fun, here are some cute pictures of Molly (cause I know that's why anyone even looks at this blog!) We love this little girl!

ps. Molly has a giant head. This hat is from Uncle Dallin and I believe his exact words were "I got it big enough so she'll be able to wear it next winter..." We then proceeded to stretch it out so we could squeeze her larger than average noggin into it. Needless to say, I doubt it'll fit her next winter!

eleven.

Don't let the gorgeous blue sky and green grass fool you. It's freezing today! It is currently eleven degrees and windy outside, which means it feels like three degrees. Brrr!!!

Today is definitely a stay home wearing warm jammies, snuggled up in warm blankets watching movies kind of day. So thats exactly what we're gonna do!

Crafts

Lately i've been thinking about starting up a trendy craft blog. I love looking at others and getting fun decorating/crafting ideas. I'm not sure if I really want to put all the effort into a blog like that right now though, so in the mean time i'll share some of my crafts on here!

My new favorite thing is freezer paper... It's so easy to use and you can do so many things with it! I cut out some stencils using my silhouette and made these two pillows the other day. From start to finish both pillows only took about an hour (minus drying time). After choosing and cutting your design, you just iron the freezer paper onto the fabric plastic side down. It sticks great and peels off so easy when you're done. Just paint over the entire thing using fabric paint, let it dry, then peel off the stencil! So simple and I love the way they look!

Freezer paper works great on clothes too so decorated this little shirt for Molly. I love it!

Let me know what you think!

Bye-bye

Molly went to her first Jazz game the other day and loved it. She's a big fan already!

She's getting so good at playing and can entertain herself on the floor for a long time, so nice! Since she's been moving around so much she's started to thin out and it makes me so sad! See how skinny her cheeks are getting?! She's wasting away!

The Dockter's are in town all week and we're so excited! Molly just sits and giggles at these little boys and they love her so much! We wish they lived closer.

Molly learned a new trick, again! It really seems like every day she does something new. This is by far her favorite trick to show off, she will wave at anyone and anything that walks past her!

Standing!

Molly has changed so much these past few weeks! She is crawling and rolling all over the place and she doesn't ever stop talking. She has learned how to get into the cupboards and the trash and loves making messes, especially with our movies. Yesterday she learned her scariest trick yet, she can pull herself up! Crazy! We've had to baby-proof our house real fast! We sure do love our busy little girl!

Christmas Break

The past few weeks have been so much fun! We were able to spent a lot of time with family and good friends. Christmas and New Years were great and it was so fun to have Molly with us this year. We don't want Trevor to go back to school on Monday, but at least it's his last semester ever! Happy (late) New Year!
