Playing Catch Up

While I think it's fun and important to document the "big events" in family life, I think it's just as if not more important to capture the everyday happenings. Those simple things that I don't want to forget, but I'm sure I will if they are not documented somehow.  

Every baby needs a bath tub picture! Dallin at 12 months
 Aliza doing her reading homework - Kindergarten Age 6
 Charlotte with her lovely necklaces and beautiful smile
 A happy reunion with some old high school friends! It had been nearly 13 years since I'd last seen them.
 Dallin sporting mommy's new sunglasses, which apparently make me look "cooler than a teenager".
 This boy loves grapes
 And recently started walking.
 Playing outside on bikes and scooters.
 Aliza drawing with chalk. The girls love to draw houses on the driveway, they each make their own room and then have a kitchen, etc. They also makes roads and restaurants too.
 You can generally find a boy or two talking with Carmen.
 Lovely girl
 Aliza was running around so happily this day. I tried to capture to happy spirit, but they were mostly blurry!
 Dallin crawled all round and has the grandest time. It was one of his first times really playing outside.
 This girl loves to do flips and cartwheels.
 A bouquet of flowers held with all the hands that picked them.
 Dallin eating the chalk.
A closet full of little girl dresses. I'm sure I'll miss this some day.
This is how we pass the time at the doctors office. Always bring crayons to color on all that white paper! We like to draws roads and houses. Be sure to have a couple of cars in your bag as well. 
 The girls enjoying the aftermath of Charlotte's party.
 This is how bedtime looks at our house.
 I know you really shouldn't take pictures during Sacrament meeting, but I just had to capture David holding Dallin, feeding him cereal, Charlotte drinking out of his cup.... it's always a crazy meeting. And David just always grins and bears it so well.
Charlotte wanting to hold my hand as she fell asleep one night. 
 Oh, another grape picture! ;)
I LOVE MY FAMILY!

We always used to make chalk houses with rooms too when I was a kid! Funny my boys have never done that, maybe it's a girl/sister thing!!
