Lauren (6) and Samantha (1) dressed alike one day :)
Lauren saw that she had Samantha had matching clothes, so she wanted to dress up like twins one day and take a picture. Lauren loves taking care of Samantha and playing with her. She's such a good big sister to her.
My three darling daughters eating waffles!
I love this picture. I still can't believe sometimes that I have 3 daughters! I am so grateful for them. They are so beautiful. I don't want them to grow up! I love to watch them love each other so much and be such good friends. I hope they always do!

Johnny Quotes

Johnny and Millie

I just had to write down some of the cute things Johnny has said lately so I don't forget them. The other night I was saying prayers with Johnny before bed and he said, "I will talk really loud so that Jesus will hear me!" I also have to write a typical Johnny prayer: "Heavenly Father....all about... we don't fight, all about I get to eat candy, all about we play with our friends...etc...amen!" We have no idea where he got the "all about.." but it's so cute when he says it. :)

The other morning I went in to see if Johnny was awake yet and he was just laying in bed looking at the ceiling. I said, "Hey buddy! You woke up?" And he said, "Mommy, I love all my friends and all my family." He is the sweetest little boy. He's just laying there in bed thinking about how much he loves everybody!

Johnny and Millie

One of Johnny's best friends is a little girl named Millie. They love to play together and they go to pre-school and church together and play a lot. Anyway, the other day I was picking them up from pre-school and I looked in the back and saw that Millie's seatbelt was already buckled (she usually likes help) I said, "Millie, did you buckle your own seat belt?" Johnny said, "No, Mom, I got it for her." Johnny had climbed into the very back seat and buckled her seat belt for her and then climbed up to the middle seat and buckled himself in. :) I hope he always treats girls like that! :)

Right now Millie is over and she and Johnny wanted to watch "Rudolph," but they were worried there were scary parts. Johnny said, "Mommy if it's scary, I will cuddle with Millie so she won't be scared."

Other Quotables

Johnny follows Greg around the house all day on Saturday and Sunday. If Greg goes out to shovel the driveway, Johnny goes out to help him. One of his favorite sayings is, "We the boys!" He always asks Greg if he wants to be in his "candy club." and he's always saying, "Come on dad, let's fight!"

One of the greatest compliments Johnny can give you, is to invite you to his birthday party (in May :) He always says, "Mom, I love you. I'm going to invite you to my birthday party!" (He's also been known to get mad and tell me I'm NOT invited to his birthday party--but not very often :)

2 more things: The other day Johnny came downstairs and said, "Mommy, I did get scared in my room and I did say a prayer and Jesus did answer my prayer."

Johnny's favorite thing to do at bedtime is to have Greg and me lay by him and talk about all of his favorite kinds of candy. :) He gets so excited talking about it :) Then when we're about to leave the room, he wants to know how many more days until Easter (the next "candy" holiday!)

Lauren


Lauren just said, "Mom, what does "snow forts" mean when they say it in church?"
Kristy: "Snow forts?"
Lauren: "Yeah, ...(then she sings)..."evangelists and snow forts..."
