Baby Case's Blessing on Mother's Day

It was so fun to have family in town for baby Case's blessing. Matt gave a beautiful blessing on a beautiful Mother's Day Sunday:) It is crazy how just last year, this day, we blessed baby Beau! Now he is the big baby in the family and Case is the newborn:)
Love his chubby cheekies!
The proud parents (Jen and Matt) with baby Case!
All 5 of the Roper kids! (Trent, Seth, Rylee, Wade, and Case)
The rest of the day was spent eating, hanging out together, and relaxing at the Roper's house. My kids and Benny spoiled me this Mother's Day. I am so lucky to be a mother of 3 healthy, happy, sweet, beautiful boys! There is nothing more important or rewarding to me than being a mom! Yes, I have my bad moments, but the good moments completely outweigh any of the bad! My boys bring so much joy and happiness into my life each and every day. It is so fun to watch them grow up and experience things for the first time. I am so proud of my boys and wish nothing but the best for them always. I am grateful for the sealing powers of the temple and the comfort of knowing that my sweet little family will be together for all time and eternity:)
Here are some of the adorable things that Logan made me:



Logan wrote that all by himself, dad just told him how to spell a few words. Soooo cute! Daners was supposed to color in the card, but didn't feel like it:) Ben gave me a few little gifts and let me go shopping when we were in LA. He also was extra helpful that day, but he always is super helpful! I am one lucky mama! It was a wonderful Mother's Day! I love all 4 of my boys so very much!

Ampa Time = Family Fun!

We are always so happy when Ampa comes to visit and we are so lucky that he can come so often! He and Paula came for baby Case's blessing, which turned into a weekend of events!

Swimming with Ampa

Trent's 4th Birthday Party!





 Sweet baby Case:)








 Two peas in a pod:)


 It was a group effort:)



 Beau Beau loves being silly with Ampa!


Silly Ampa...we love you!

Logan Lost his First Tooth!

 He pulled it out on our way over to the Roper's for Trent's Birthday! WHAT!!! Isn't he too young?! According to Dr. Roper, he is just an early bloomer:) 
  He is growing up WAY too fast! That night the tooth fairy brought him $1 and Ampa matched that! Logan thought he was the luckiest and richest boy alive! So cute:)
I love his sweet innocence and zest for life! So exciting!

It's Rainging!

Monsoon season doesn't usually start for about a month or so, but we always welcome a good down pour here in the desert! Anything other than the usual bright, sunny, hot day is a special treat! The kids LOVE the rain! Dane loves to dance in it and sing, "it's rainging!" (yes, with a "g" in it) over and over again...so cute! 
 Logi's soccer practice got canceled, but he didn't care because it was "rainging"!
 Beau Beau was content staying nice and dry inside and finishing his dinner:)
 Boys will be boys!:)
