The little darlings...




Emma playing with Austin! She is a little aggressive! She kept hitting him in the head with a plastic soda bottle! Sorry little buddy! We still love you!



Camden doing karoke at Grandma's house! My girls love the microphone!
We have to wear our hats backwards so we do not pull them off!

Just a few snap shots of the girls! I absolutely love the stage the girls are in right now! Everything is new and exciting, and everyday is different! It is pretty much impossible to get the girls to take a picture together. One is always on the move! They were weighed last week at the doctors office, and are quite chubby! Camden is 21lbs 8 oz., and Emma is 21lbs 6 oz. No wonder I have to stop and catch my breath every time I carry them up the stairs! Being pregnant does not help! I love the picture of Camden holding the vacuum! She loves the vacuum, and thinks it is a game to chase it while I am cleaning. Emma on the other hand, hates the vacuum, and is usually crying the whole time it is on. She is also hiding behind the couch, to avoid getting near it! It sometimes surprises me how different the girls really are! I swear I am doing the exact same thing with both of them, but the reactions are always unique. Camden is a very busy girl, and gets into everything she can touch. She will not sit still and talk to me unless she has something really important to say, or wants my attention for a new trick or needs food. She is always smiling and happy to see her parents or her sister! Emma is very dramatic and vocal. She knows how to scream, and demands the attention of everyone in the room. Her verbal skills are impressive, and she loves to fake laugh when anyone else is laughing. She also pretends to pick something off the floor and eat it, so of course I am constantly putting my fingers in her mouth to fish it out. Only to discover there was nothing ever in there! Both girls are moving everywhere, Emma thinks she can walk like Camden sometimes, but really she is not quite there. They are both so much fun to watch! I could not imagine our family without them! Seeing how different they are, makes me wonder how this new little baby will be! We can't wait to meet her! I am sure that she will be just as unique! The big question is will she have blond hair or brown? Good thing we do not have to wait much longer!

You are seriously my hero, and officially supermom too!

I love those shorts Camden has on!

Oh, they are so cute. I'm with you, this is such a fun stage! Except for the occasional appearance of abusive parents. We have that around here too! Miss you!

They are so cute. I can't believe how big they have gotten. You look great for only having 2 weeks to go. Three girls in a year, I can only imagine how Rob is going to feel in 16 years. Watch out Boys!!

They are growing so fast. It will get harder when they are both walking around. I'll be there for you if you need anything. You know that. Got Carson crawling on me trying to get to the computer... bye.

I love those hats they have! Can't believe how big they're getting. They have the best eyes ever. I'm voting for brown hair.

They are growing so quickly and getting cuter every day! I am excited to see your new baby and hear about her personality!

Oh Manda! I just cannot get over how big your girls are. I was just stunned to see your recent pictures! I am just so proud of you and happy for you. Three little girls...I must say I am jealous! Little girls are so wonderful. I love you so much Manda and think of you all the time.

Love,

Our Story...

Rob and I met in November of 2002 in the financial services office at BYU. After a very akward introduction, which involved me introducing myself in the third person, Rob called and asked me out. After a pretty amazing first date (its a long story-some other time), I confidently told Rob "that once he dated me he would never want to date anyone else." I really had no idea at that point that it was going to work out so well. We dated for the next five months and then one beautiful night on a bridge at Sundance resort, Rob and I got engaged. We were married four months later on August 16, 2003 in the Las Vegas, NV temple. And we have been living happily ever after since...
