With the warmer weather this last week, I tried to get the kids outside more. Hailee had fun in a swing for the first time. I also took her for a jog, which she ended up falling asleep. I think I'll try it more often if it means a good rest for the baby.


HAPPY FATHERS DAY DADDY!
Hailee was his favorite present. j/k

I am so lucky to Mark in my life. It seems that often we take many things for granted. While deployed with the military, I experianced a time without him home to experiance the joys of parenting. It makes my heart skip a beat every time I see him make on of my children laugh or when they give him a big hug. I'm so glad to know that Bradyn misses his daddy when he is gone and asks me several times during the day, "mommy, where daddy go?" I love to hear Hailee giggle when her daddy makes a funny face at her. I am so blessed to share the experiance of parenthood with such a wonderful husband and father. xoxo And to all of my fellow Military wives, my heart goes out to you on this day. May your other half be safe and blessed. Especially my brother-in-law, Chris, who is experiancing his first fathers day away from Emily and AnaLea. Be strong! One day you'll look back and wonder where the time went.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY NAUNAKINS
Dyaunies birthday was on June 5th. But because Mark was away with the military, we didn't get to celebrate it till today. I can't believe she is already 5! Oh yeah, she was so excited because, as most young girls her age, she is a big Hannah Montana fan and now gets to dress up and dance just like Hannah.
pst...I think uncle Joe is secretly a fan to ;)

It feels like Spring

This has been a very fun and eventful week.

I LOVE TO SEE THE TEMPLE....
Last Sunday Tamani and I took Hailee and Bradyn to the Bountiful Temple. Bradyn loved the waterfall and flowers.







STRIKE!


Well, actually it was just a spare. For family night on Monday Myself, my kids, Adam & Shonda, their kids, Tamani, Joseph, and Cristina, all went bowling together. Bradyn and Jason had the funnest time bowling, as they had never been before. They wanted to take every ones turns for us. With the help of those rolling bars, Bradyn got a spare. Way to go buddy!



Mommy-Daughter Time
My mother-in-law and Mark both managed to be out of town at the same time. With that, Grandpa Pohlman has voluntarily spent a lot more time with Bradyn to help me out. Below are some pictures of Mommy and Hailee spending some time together. xoxoxoxo.
THANKS GRANDPA for the extra relief.


LASTLY.....
We went to visit Great Grandma Thomas Before she and Grandma Pohlman took off for their vacation in Georgia. WE LOVE YOU GREAT GRANDMA .
