Gymnastics!

Our most recent adventure has been starting Hailey in Gymnastics. We did it through the city so it's very affordable. There are two fun college girls who teach it and they are great with the little ones. (Kalli and Carrie use to teach this same class! That would have been too much fun!) Well Hailey can always get pointers from her Aunts. We were over at the Hakes recently and I was talking to Carrie about Hailey's gymnastics and next thing I know Hailey and Carrie are over there working on it! That was way cute! Hailey will have so many great teachers/supporters!



Anyway Hailey asks to go to gymnastics every single day. One day she got in the car buckled herself in and said, "Hurry up mom, were late for Gymnastics." That was so funny. (Wonder where she's heard that...I'm usually late to everything.) Another day she said, "My body feels like gymnastics." I think she's doing pretty well in it too. She good at foward rolls, working on backward rolls, listens good, waits patiently for her turn and is always sad when it is over.

We have been thinking about our budget lately and I wondered what other people spend on groceries. I put up a little survey, please participate only if your comfortable. I'd love to hear anyone's input or comments on this as well.

More pictures from trip!

We were also able to take some family pictures!





The Kohlers with every single member! Yeah!

The Hakes, it's tough to take pictures with little kids who usually aren't in the mood. Just the other day Hailey pulled out her camera and caught me in the middle of something and was like, "Mommy look at me, say cheese." So I hurried and posed for her, then she did it again and again and again. She demanded my full attention for each picture. Just like I usually do to her. I feel like I can relate so I'll try to be a little less demanding!


I swear I can jump just my timing's off a little!

Troy also got to meet his second cousin Johnny who shares his birthday! Pretty cool! He makes Big boy Troy look small.
I also remembered that we also got to see my Nana who's on a mission in SLC but was able to come down and visit for Christmas. So it was lots of fun! So many pictures, it was hard to choose which ones to use!
I think I'm all caught up on the Holidays now so I can move on! I'm currently getting excited about Hailey's Birthday which is about a month away. We'll see what we come up with! She's at such a fun age, she really just throughly enjoys just about everything and then want to recap on just about everything. A few nights ago she had an accident and Josh got up to help her, in the morning when I saw her she told me every little detail. Like daddy said "Do you want to wear pants or no pants?" and "I said no pants daddy". And on and on she goes! So cute!

Trip to St george!

Here are some of the highlights from our trip! We were able to go to Las Vegas, see lots of family, eat at the pizza factory!, go to the temple, and drive for hours and hours to meet our road trip needs! Hailey still keeps asking if we can go on a road trip. She throughly enjoyed the driving part and got to drive with grandma Robin and Papa most of the way!

Here's Karl and Leslie, cute newly weds!:

Here's Grandma Robin being silly! Love it mom! It's our screen saver! The trip was for her birthday! Happy Birthday Mom! Hailey by the way can't get enough of this picture!
Here's Hailey with all of her Uncles eating spagatti. It was really cute her up there with all the big boys!

Troy being cute!
