some more as of lately....

 the cold and christmas songs have set in... and I love it!
 Tyler also gave me a "no handstands in the kitchen" rule. I feel like I'm 8 again. and I for sure don't follow it. 
 Clara got to babysit Eleanor and it was the best day of her life... then Eleanor fell asleep, and Clara cried.
 Lucy love, loves Ballet. Mr. Rinat is awesome. I'm still coaching gymnastics and it's going great- I love being back in the gym, even if it's only one day a week! Lucy comes early with me and gets to play for an hour before her class starts. It's pretty much a dream come true for her!
 We got our first big snowstorm which naturally calls for midnight sledding....
it was SO much fun... and literally, FREEZING! This was the temp the next morning, but it was coooolllddd!!
 The girls each got their own trees from Target and got to put all of the ornaments on themselves-- it was pretty much the best thing ever, and they both took it extremely seriously!
 A bunch of girls and I went and saw the midnight showing of Hunger Games- Catching Fire! It was SOOOO good and so fun to go with a bunch of my friends.
 Lucy made the cutest Tom the Turkey at school for Thanksgiving. I love these cute girls!
Tyler and I were able to sneak away to see the movie (again) for me Saturday night! I sure love this cute guy!
 and some more yummy winter baking, and riding our unicorns around the house.... Welcome winter!

I still can't believe my little Clara-bear-a is old enough to be in Kindergarten! She has absolutely loved it. These two are pretty adorable walking to school every morning together! Another great soccer season! Tyler was roped into coaching Clara's team again and wins at the best dad and coach ever! He even took Rex with him to a bunch of games and coached while Rexy was strapped to him in the baby carrier! Dad of the year! (I was at piano lessons with Lucy!) Baby Rex kept getting bigger and bigger! Dad would put Rex in his only football outfit every Saturday to watch the Utes play! Haha. Teaching him young! Rex turned 10 months old in September! Lucy's biggest fan! Lucy has bee doing SO great at soccer! Soccer camp from this summer really helped the girls a ton! She was so aggressive and even scored a few goals! Goooo Lucy! Color week for Kindergarten! Purple, Green, Blue, Yellow, Red, and Pink! While the mom's wash tables El...

it's me! I'm back. I have missed writing, so here I am. writing. so very much has happened since I first began this blog back in 2008! ah! almost 10 years ago. Time has seriously flown. I feel like I am a completely different person, and yet still exactly the same. Maybe just a little more perspective? That's a good thing right!? our family is still living the dream up here in North Dakota. We thought we were maybe coming up here for a year, and five and a half years later..... here we are! our kids have truly grown up here. Lucy is eight. Yes, eight! She has gotten to tall and gangly. She is wild and free, full of light, and joyful. Clara is six. She is full of FIRE, spice, and quite a bit of sass. She is fiercely loyal, tender, and a snuggler. Rex is a year and a half of craziness. He is so sweet, all over the place, and such a cute kid. He has his mama wrapped around his little chubby sticky finger! Tyler is the most incredible father, the world's best husband, and k...

Lucy Jane Crosland February 25, 2009 1:23am 6 lbs 12 oz 18 inches long We would like to welcome our sweet little girl Lucy to the world! It was an eventful entrance she made and we're glad she is finally here and perfect! My water finally broke Tuesday afternoon so we went into the hospital about four and they decided to start me on pitocin since other than my water breaking not too much was going on-- after being on pitocin for about a 1/2 hr I was ready for my epidural! ((again- Im not quite sure how people do this naturally- I only had 30 minutes of real contractions and was ready for all the needles in the world!) The epidural was wonderful- I highly recommend it!! Well-- at midnight I had pretty much stalled out at being dialated at a 4.5--so the doctor came in and said that basically if I hadn't dialated in the next little while much it was most likely that they were going to do a C-section-- so for the next hour me, Ty and my mom just prayed that I was dialating, and I ...
