What is wrong with these pictures?

So can you guess what is wrong with these pictures of Sophia? I will tell you what is wrong. She should have her nails painted and her hair done all cute with sparkles in it but as you can see, she does not. She went to a princess birthday party today at Jack and Jills childrens hair salon. The girls are supposed to dress in their best dress. Sophia picked the one in the above pictures. At the party each girl got to have their hair done and nails painted. Sophia declined to have either done. She even went as far as hiding behind the table cloth when we tried to get her to just sit in the chair. She sure is one crazy kid!

Here are a few shots of Aaron and Vincent wearing her princess crown. Sam had it on but escaped me getting a picture. He did let me take a picture though. I love his little freckled face!Aaron and Vincent love to dress up in Sophia's girl dress up stuff. Maybe I will have to post some pictures of dress up time another time. Aaron is in the blue.

Halloween

They really can smile and they really were excited

and happy even though they look so miserable Sam was a lion, Sophia a pirate (she called herself Captain Hook), Aaron a killer whale and Vincent a dog. Sam added the mittens so he could have paws. We went to trunk or treat at the church and went to a few houses in the neighborhood. The Moss' had a scary set up at their place. Sophia was scared walking up to the door, but the twins really got scared when Bro. Moss, who had a gorilla mask on made some noises at them. Aaron screamed the most and if you asked him later about it he got all nervous. Kiana sat in the back of the van at the church and was very content. She just watched everyone going by until she fell asleep.
The night before we decorated sugar cookies with some cousins. Fun was had by all!

Vincent went a little crazy with the sprinkles and Aaron would have Carissa put sprinkles on his cookie and then he would eat them all off and then want her to put more on.

Aaron and Vincent turn TWO!

Aaron in the back-Vinnie in front

Aaron and Vincie are two. I can't believe we have all made it thru their first year, let alone two and added another child in that time. We are crazy!! What a crazy and fun two years it has been. Can't imagine how boring our lives would be without these two great kids. Chris and I have had to learn alot and fast. Patience (not that we are always patient) has been improved greatly. Aaron was born 6 min. before Vincent and they were only an ounce different. Their weight and height has always stayed right about the same as the other. Tomorrow is their two year check up so I will give those stats later. They have a lot of similarities but they also have their distinct personalities. They both can get quite an attitude goin on sometimes but Aaron is definitely more fiesty. Let's just say Aaron and I had a stand off for 40 minutes when we were getting Sam from school one day. He wanted to be carried to the car but I was carrying Kiana in her car seat so he refused to walk and it took 40 min. before he walked to the van to go home. He is also a nice boy, who is good at sharing with his siblings and loves to play outside, jump on the trampoline (our little one or the big one in the Oliver's back yard). He loves any kind of ball to play with and makes us smile and laugh all the time. Vincent is pretty easy going and goes with the flow most of the time. He loves animals (any kind) and babies. Playing outside and the trampoline are some of his favorites also. He makes some pretty funny faces. They both love to dress up in Sophia's dress up clothes or our dress up costumes. Right now their most favorite movie is, Spirit. They would watch that movie everyday if we let them. We are so blessed to have them. They got lots of great presents from their grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. The best present of all is their big climber and slide. For the winter we are keeping it in the down stairs playroom. They will be able to climb and slide their selves silly all the rainy cold winter long.

Kiana Blessing/two month stats

Kiana was blessed on September 28th. Her Dad blessed her of course and he was joined by his Dad(Gary), Uncle Jeff, Uncle Nate and the bishopric. A sister in the ward wrote down what she could catch from the blessing. Thought that was sweet. Never heard of anyone doing that before. I only got a few pictures of her when we got home but better than nothing. She at least got to wear a blessing outfit. Aaron and Vincent were blessed in Christmas pj's. The poor kids!

Her two month check up was September 29th. She was 90th percentile for weight and height. She was 12lbs 12oz and 23 1/2 in. Her Dr. referred us to a physical therapist cause Kiana favors her left side. With her head and her trunk. Always leaning to the left. The physical therapist did an assessment and gave us some stretches and other things to do to try and help her use both sides of her body. We have a check up with the physical therapist this week and will see what she says. One of Chris' brothers is a Chiropractor and he has done some work on her and it really has been helping her alot. She is always way more relaxed and spits up way less after he does his thing. Hopefully she will get more comfortable as she gets older.

Showing off how strong she is

Hard to get her with a happy face!

Twins first hair cut

Aaron and Vincent finally had their first hair cuts on September 30th. They were so great. They thought it was fun. We were pleasantly surprised since Sam has always disliked having his haircut. Pretty much a major meltdown almost every time he gets one. So nice that the twins thought it was so much fun. You will see from the pictures how much fun they had and how excited Sam was when it was almost his turn. Don't mind the pizza sauce on Sam's face from dinner and try to ignore the picture with Sophia picking her nose in the back ground.

My main purpose for having this blog is to kind of have a family journal and so friends and family can see what is going on with us, of course. I know Jen will be so glad that I finally am doing this. I might be one of those people who sometimes goes months without anything new posted but ya know life happens.
