Fun with the kiddos!

We had lots of fun while Lexi, Brecken and Tayden were staying at our house last week! Some of the things we did were play with cousins, watch Frozen, take Lexi to dance class, help the kids with homework, run errands, play outside, visit the baby at the hospital and much, much more! Jeremy and Meg got the Frozen soundtrack for the kids, so anytime we were in the car (which ended up being quite a bit!), the kids would always want to be listening to Frozen! We all loved it! It is so fun to hear sweet Lexi singing along in the back seat, she is such an awesome singer for her age! I am so glad that we got to spend so much time together this past week! It was so much fun! I love those kids! 

Here are some pictures we snapped while the kids were here!

Crysta stopped by with Olivia, Lincoln and Liam too, we just didn't get any pictures with them!

Evelyn is here!!

Evelyn Pearl Hall was born Tuesday March 18th at 10:33 pm. She is an angel and I am so glad she is a part of our family! Congrats Jeremy and Meg! I love you guys!

I was able to watch Lexi, Brecken and Tayden while Jeremy and Meg were at the hospital. On Tuesday night we were up waiting to hear any news about the baby with the kids, and when the clock hit 9:30, we decided it would be best to put all of the kids to bed and just go see the baby on Wednesday. So we got everyone situated and they were all asleep by 10:00. I was lying in my bed with Lexi and Brecken when we got the text saying Evelyn had finally made her grand debut into this world at 10:33 PM! We ended up waking up all of the kids and going to see the baby at the hospital because we were all so excited! The kids were kind of hard to wake up, but when they heard their baby sister was here, they were so ready to see her!

We had a fun couple of days going to visit them at the hospital and taking this kids to and from the various activities! I am so glad that I got to spend so much time with Lexi, Brecken and Tayden, I love those kids so much! I am glad that both baby and mommy are safe and that Evelyn is here safe and sound!

  

I love you Evelyn! I am so glad that I am now an aunt times 9!!

P.S. Soon I will post some more about things that we did with the kids while they were staying with us, like getting FROZEN in the mail and watching it multiple times!! We also were constantly listening to the FROZEN soundtrack this week! We might be a little obsessed ;)

I love being an aunt! {ADDISON}

ADDISON ISABELLA JOHNSON

Addie Belle is the newest addition to our crew of kiddos! She is so precious and sweet! I love holding and rocking this little sweetheart! I am so grateful for the blessing she has been in all of our lives. Addie was the first of my nieces and nephews that I was able to be there at her birth, that was an incredible experience and I am so glad that I got to be a part of it! I love you Addie Belle! I can't wait to see the cute little girl you grow up to be!

I love being an aunt! {LIAM}

Liam Ezra Whittle

Liam is a cutie! I have loved having him and his family back in Utah! I missed them all so much! I have loved getting to know this little boy more over the past few weeks. He has such a fun personality, he is always so busy and on the go! He is always happy, and loves playing with toys! I love you Liam! I can't wait to see the young man you become!

I love being an aunt! {TAYDEN}

TAYDEN JAY HALL

Tayden is such a sweetheart! He has been growing up so much lately! He is getting to that stage where he doesn't ever want to be held and he just wants to walk around and play with all of the big kids! He is so sweet and will grow up to be quite popular with all of the girls with those big brown eyes! He is always on the go and very busy! I have loved seeing how cute he is with Lexi and Brecken and I can't wait to see how he is with his new sister that will be here in March! I love you Tayden! You are so sweet and loving!

Tayden and I on a Sunday walk to visit Uncle Jason at the Cemetery.

When Tayden was first born, meeting his big sister and brother.

This past summer when I watched him for a few weeks while Lexi and Brecken were at swimming lessons!

Playing with the Backyardigan guitar, which seems to be every kid's favorite toy (and the most annoying!)

I love being an aunt! {EMILY}

EMILY BRISTOL DE SILVA

I tend to have a lot of silly pictures of Emily on my phone. I love all of the expressions that this cute little girl has! I have loved being able to be there for her ever since she was born and I am so grateful for the blessing she is in my life! I can't wait to see the incredible young lady she will grow to become! I love you sweet Emily! 

This is Emily's "grossed out" face! 

There it is again!

I walked into my room one day to find that Emily had brought my pillow and her blanket into the corner on the floor and decide to try and nap! Silly girl!

Me and Emily doing a face mask (you can barely see hers, because I only put a few dots of it on!)

One day me and Emily went and helped Auntie Lala run some errands. Emily was so excited about her packed lunch that she gobbled all of the food in her "lunch bag" right up!
