Enjoying a Sunday!

Today was a great Sunday! We had no melt downs while getting ready for church. (I know what you are thinking...the Loveless kids throwing fits no way I thought they were perfect!) We got to Church on time...which happened to have to be a half hour early because it was also the Primary Children's Sacrament Meeting Program. Ty had to help pass the Sacrament and we made it though that without one problem. (Got to love fruit snacks!) The Primary did an awesome job doing the Program! (YEAH!! Its over!! I took a nap after church and didn't think of the program at all! No nightmares or panic feelings that I forgot something!! YEAH YEAH YEAH!!) Landen got up there and gave his part all by himself and was so proud of himself! (So were we!! He is getting so big to fast. Its amazing how fast the time goes by!) We came home and ate a yummy roast! (It such a good feeling to know that I can still cook despite having 3 kids. I have to admit dinner was a half hour latter then I told Ty it would be done, but oh well we had a homemade dinner!) After dinner we went for a walk. When we got home the boys took turns swinging in the swing in the back yard! (They love their swing!!) So as you can see we really have been enjoying our Sunday!

Barker Girl?

This morning I brought Hattie down after she had her bath and was already for the day and Ty said, "she looks like a Barker girl." I don't know what he really means by this, but I figure it has to be good since he married a Barker girl. Hattie is now 3 weeks 2 days old. She is such a cute little girl! Her and Ty have daddy daughter dates every night together since she still has nights and days a little mixed up. Last night they stayed up and watched football and baseball while I was peacefully asleep! I have the best (and hottest!) husband and my kids have the best dad ever!! We are all loving life and loving our new addition.

Fall is here!

Even though we don't have a tree in our front yard we still get to have all the fun that fall brings thanks to all the trees around us. Since today was a nice warm autumn day they took full advantage of it. They had dad rake the leaves and then they got to have all the fun. Today they were nice enough to wait for mom to grab the camera so I could capture the fun!

This is Porters first year that he has enjoyed playing in the leaves. Last year he just tried to eat the leaves. He love to dive right into them and swim around. He is our adventurous one. Landen really loves that Porter likes to be covered in them. Landen will let you cover him up in them, but he would prefer to cover someone else up in them.


They were having so much fun in the leaves they thought that Hattie needed to do some playing in them also.


Since Porter loves being covered in leaves he thought that Hattie would also enjoy it. Notice in the second picture the little hands at the bottom of the picture, those would be Porters hands. Look at all the fun Hattie is going to have growing up with 2 big brothers! (Don't worry I was snapping pictures continually so the leaves were only on her for a few seconds before Ty could move Porters hands and get Hattie up) Hattie was awake, but the leaf pile was in the sunlight so she closed her eyes and wouldn't open them for the picture. (I can't blame her it was bright!) We had such a fun time! Thanks for raking the leaves Ty!!
