Ever since Abi learned the sit up by herself, this is how she sleeps. When we first noticed her sleeping like this we were worried if she was comfortable or if she would be okay like that. One night Jason decided to pick her up and lay her down flat. That was a BIG mistake! She woke up and was so upset it took 2 hours to calm her down and get her back to sleep. She has a very determined personality. Later that night I realized... It actually make sense that she sleeps like that because that is the position she was in when she was in my belly. So for now on we just leave her like that.
(P.S. the girls are in the pack 'n play because Jason was out of town and we were having a sleep over at my parents house. At home they have their own cribs. They have only been sleeping apart for about 2 months. They sleep better when they are together, but they kick and move around so much that I worry that one of them will get hurt when they are together.)

Here is an update of a few things we did in August. Unfortunatly the pictures loaded backwards of how I wanted them and I am not going to fix it. You can either start at the bottom and go up or you can view August in reverse.

Isaac started third grade this year. I was more nervouse about it than he was. I think that is because I HATED third grade. Math was really hard for me and I was sick for a couple weeks. Lucky for Isaac he has Jason's math skills and not mine. Math is one of Isaac's best subjects. Here are a couple pictures from Isaac's first day.

(Are you wondering what happened to the door frame? Jason got mad at the door one day and kicked the door in. He still needs to finish the repair work)

We went to the Clearfield Aquatic Center with Grandma and Grandpa Goddard and the Sewells. Uncle Jeremy taught Isaac all kinds of cool tricks like this one! It's hard to tell in the picture but he had a stream of water going in his mouth and then one on each side that he was adjusting the height with his hands. It was fun to watch.

We went to Park City with my mom, Maura, MariJo, Kaden and Karter. My mom watched Abi and Bell while the rest of us went down the Alpine slide. It was a blast and then after we did a little school shopping at the outlets.

At the start of the month we went to S&S railroad with my nephew Karter for his birthday party. We had a blast riding trains with him.

"Star Wars" Episode 8

Eight years ago a baby boy was born. He was named Isaac and he was strong in the force. The Jedi Masters recognized his talent and on July 31, 2009, he was sent to the Jedi Training Academy. Nine friends joined Isaac in this prestigious training.

When they arrived, they were issued Training uniforms. Then they were greeted by Master Jedi Trainer Princess Alamama (Isaac's Mom for short).

She explained the ways of the Jedi to them and made them take a special oath. Then the training began.

The first task was to improve their minds by running a obstacle course while carrying an egg on a spoon.

Next there was a water balloon toss to improve team work.

Then last but not least they were trained in the proper use of a Light Saber. Jedi Master Obi-Won-Jas-on (or Isaac's dad for short) arrived just in time to help with this special training.

After the trainees had been properly trained in the skill of the Light Saber, they got to practice their new skills on a Death Star Pinata.

There was a graduation ceremony where they each received a certificate and then celebrated with cupcakes and Yoda Soda (lime sherbet in 7UP)
Congratulations to the newest Jedi!

3rd of July

Last night we went to the fireworks in Logan. I didn't think the fireworks were as good this year as the last 2 years but we still enjoyed them and had a lot of fun.

Bell was asleep until the firworks started. This is her watching the fireworks. She was so good and never cried. I was so surpirsed this morning when I learned she had got her first tooth. It is the bottom right.
We brought glow ropes for everyone! This is Isaac all decked out!

Isaac and the fireworks!

A small part of the group. (and for those you don't know Jason is holding Bell)

The rest of the group. We missed Mikelle and Russ. But we were so glad that Grandma and Granda Moulton came! It was so fun to have them there with us! (Myndee is holding Abi)

5K and carnival

Isaac's school did a 5k run last friday. Isaac ran it with Myndee, Kaden, And MariJo who pushed Karter in the stroller. Isaac is the kid who won't play soccer any more because there is too much running. I am so proud of him for doing the race!

The runners

Then the school had a carnival. First Isaac jumped in one of the big blow up things. Sorry I didn't get a picture of that. There there was a dunk tank.

This is Isaac trying to dunk the assistant principal

Then there was a climbing wall. Isaac really wanted to try it. He was amazing! He is a natural climber! He has never done anything like this before. He just knew what to do and I was amazed at how fast he made it to the top!!!

Look how high it was! (Isaac is on the left)

Way to go Isaac! You are amazing!

When it rains it pours. It seems like I go forever with out posting and then all of the sudden I have lots to post about.

While I was posting about the high chairs, Isaac and kaden came in and asked for blankets. They said they were going to watch the stars. It was about 8:45 and I told then that there weren't any stars out yet. They said it was ok because they were going to wait for them. They gathered up blanlets, coats and snacks and headed out to the back yard. They have been out there for an hour now and want to stay all night!

High Chairs

The girls got new high Chairs. It is so nice to have a place to put them in the kitchen and to have them at the table with us. Isabella is such a good eater. I haven't found anything she doesn't like. She is on the right eating green beans. Abigayle on the other hand is still as picky as ever!!! She will hardly eat anything. I tried to feed her the beans that Bell loved and she looked at me like, "really mom, what is this you are putting in my mouth" Jason tried feeding her bananas, but she didn't like them much better.

New bike

When I went to the hospital to have the twins, Isaac left his bike by our front door. Well, it got stolen. We filed a police report and 6 weeks later it was found. Unfortunately it had been trashed and was not worth repairing.

last week my parents gave him a new bike. He loves it and rides it everyday! Thanks mom and dad for his new bike!

Happy Easter!

The egg hunters after the hunt

The girls in their easter dresses. (yes, I know their flowers are as big as their head!)

OK somebody needs to teach me how to get pictures where I want them.

We had a good easter filled with too much candy. Isaac got super soakers and the twins got onesies and socks (not as exciting but they really needed them). After church we went to my parents for dinner and an egg hunt. All my sisters were there. It was fun to be all together.

Happy Birthday Maura!

Today is my baby sister Maura's birthday. I can not believe she is 19! Maura is so amazing and such a big help that I just wanted to wish her a happy birthday. (Maura, I stole this picture from your facebook. I hope thats ok. Thanks for being a great sister! )

This is how we swing

Abigayle

Isabella

Abigayle wants to be just like Isaac

So Isaac makes this annoying high pitched squeal. I am always telling him to stop. The other morning, I heard this squeal from the other room and started telling Isaac to stop. After a few times he came in and said, "mom I just want you to know it's Abigayle not me"! She did it again while he was in the room and he said "now do you believe me?!? I am going to try to post a video of some of Abigayle's stories. But trust me she gets a lot louder than this!
