End of May

This is how we roll these days...

My hardest days are always on a Thursday. I just checked and I had made these cookies on Thursday, May 17th.

But I also got to give plenty of kisses to these tiny toes today; almost as satisfying as those chocolate chip cookies...

Last night we had dinner in the valley with Kevin and Vicki for Kevin's birthday and poor little Ellie fell off of a steep stair onto the gravel, right smack onto her nose! Poor thing has a huge scab today.

I love having my babies up against my heart in a moby wrap.

Last night we were at an Elder's Quorum BBQ with the ward and there were a ton of kids playing on a huge swing set. Then Hazel came running up to me and asked me to play hide-n-seek with her. I agreed and followed her back to where the kids were, thinking she had gathered an entire group. Then when I started counting, I realized that she was the only one hiding. In the midst of all those kids, she wanted to play with me. And my favorite part about it was that she felt confident that I would say yes.

Playing at our local Ogden park. Like ninjas.

Ellie is very independent. Hazel and Charlotte have always done everything together, and I know Ellie isn't really old enough yet to keep up, but she's quite content to be on her own most of the time.

Right before we left for our San Diego trip, Hazel and I worked on her birthday invitations, since her party is a week after we get back. Since she's turning FIVE we decided to use her hand print. These might be my favorite yet.
