Introducing Hailey Joan Nielsen

About 3 weeks ago my little brother had his first baby. They live in Oregon and I was unable to go see her born, but my Sister in-law Lacey bravely made a trip up here to come visit and show us the baby. She is a fat one, she weighed in at 9 lbs 11 oz . Very cute and very sweet.

St. Patrick's Day

Gotta do a little decorating on St. Patty's too. The kids love it. Once again these are very old decorations. They need a little help though. Today and the past week have not been very fun. My kids finally got the stomach flu that has been going around. So I have been a vomit cleaner all week. Peyton was the last one to get it. She started yesterday with it and was a lot better today but I did not let her go to school and she was so sad to miss St. Patty's at school. Her and I made a Leprechaun trap as a school project that she was looking forward to use. It is so cute and funny to me how kids are. She really thought she was going to catch a Leprechaun.

Chuck E. Cheese

Yesterday we went to my nephew Deacon's birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese. We have not been there in a long time. My kids had tons of fun. It was hard for me to keep track of all the kids. I kept losing Ruby.

Children's Museum

Today we decided to go to the children's Museum.It is such a cute place where the kids can run around and explore things. We are lucky to live about 10-12 minutes away so its not like it was a big adventure, but we were bored and wanted to get out. I was very proud of myself because I actually remembered to bring my camera. The problem is I noticed the battery was dying so I charged them today only to later find out that they are not rechargeable batteries :) So I only got 2 pictures of the kids. The one with Ruby yelling is a pretty accurate portrayal of how she is quite often. She spends most of her day yelling and telling me what do to as well as her siblings. She is so much fun though. One of my favorite ages is 18 months to 2 years old. That is when they first really start to show their personality.
