Friday is our favorite day...

And this is why:

Every Friday Aimee and I try to make it to the library for Mother Goose Story Time. It's one of the free programs put on by the library during the week. The kids (and parents) LOVE it! They do such an amazing job! A typical day includes: songs, a story, a puppet show, more songs, and a coloring sheet at the end. It is super packed every week, we try to get there early to get a good seat by the floor.  

Yesterday we got there early enough to get such a seat and I happened to have my camera with me. This song is called "Shake Your Sillies Out" and is an instant hit with any baby or toddler. You can see our friend Nora in the video too! It's more fun when we can go with friends - so if you're available on Fridays from 11:00-11:30, come join us! 

I miss my little baby...

Quick post: 

I was looking back through some old posts, looking for one where I took Aimee to parent/tot swim lessons last year (because we're doing it again this year). I totally thought I posted a picture of that - but can't find it anywhere. However, I did go through a bunch of pictures/videos of Aimee when she was little and got all heart sick. She was so different then, like another person... maybe you other moms out there will relate. Anyway, it made me sad. But don't get me wrong, Aimee as a toddler is super fun! I just miss having a little baby around. Good thing we're due to have another one August 17th :)

Christmas Recap

Yes, I did upload the video of Aimee freaking out, but totally forgot to upload the zillion pictures I have from Christmas-time. Because there are so many, I used a photobucket slideshow. It's lengthy, and there are pictures from both sides of the family mixed in, but my goal was to hurry it up, not to organize it. So in this slideshow, there are pictures of the following:

-Ward Christmas Party (Aimee did NOT like this Santa)

-Mall Santa (Aimee liked this one)

-Presents in Utah with my siblings

-Aimee and California cousins (with Greg's side)

-Farrell's Ice Cream Parlor (in Cali)

-Christmas Eve Extravaganza (these are the pictures of us in our pj's, with lots of freaky mannequins... you'll see)

I think that's the gist of it.
