Chocolate Love

Chocolate makes everyone smile.

Emily is smiling even though she is asleep.  

It's amazing what chocolate can do.

Sharing

It was just before the prayer at church and suddenly Emily and Molly BOTH had to go to the bathroom AT THAT VERY MOMENT.  Scott told them to wait, we could leave in two more minutes, but Molly said what every parent of a newly potty-trained kid dreads hearing.  "I'm about to go pee-pee in my underpants!"  She actually says this a lot.  I don't think she really does have to go all the time though.  She just knows saying it causes action. 

They're three and five.  We can't let them escape on their own yet.  (Someday . . . )  So Scott takes them to the bathroom.  Emily hops on the toilet and Molly dances around.  Emily, being the kind sister she is says, "Hop on Molls, there's room for two."  What do you know, there WAS room for two.  

Scott thought this was so funny that however inappropriate it was (for so many reasons) it was worth taking a picture and posting it online.  OK, the posting was my idea.  Who could resist sharing this photo?

Scott was going through the photos on his camera and found this cute one too.  It seems that Molly loves sharing tight spaces with both of her sisters.  

Waiting Patiently

John waited patiently for the candy to be thrown.

Adam waited patiently for the Polly Pockets in the car.

Brad and Scott waited patiently for the Placer County Dems to pass out fans again this year.

Laurel waited patiently to have a real sister with her sisters in Zion, Emily, Heidi and Molly. (Oh yes, they also waited for cheerleaders, Tootsie Pops and marching bands.)

Hyrum waited patiently for his hair to grow a little more so his mohawk could be even bigger.

We're all waiting patiently for another fun parade next 4th of July.  Happy Independence Day!

Name Our New Baby!

OK, so maybe she looks different than the other girls, but we love her just as much.  

She does need a good name though.  Any suggestions?

Do you think Molly looks a little worried that Emily might actually try to ride away?  (Emily wanted to, by the way.)  Thanks to Patti for letting me borrow her helmet for a few days until my special-order super-small-noggin size comes in!
