Just when I thought not a lot of moments could surpass yesterday's laugh with Tommy...Today Emily was talking to Tommy. He was sitting in his carseat and I was watching them talk because getting Tommy out. Emily was talking to him and he was "coo"ing back at her. Then he laughed at her. Amazing.

Today Tommy laughed for the first time!!!! Sweetest sound!!!!

I was outside of the girls' bedroom. Carolyn, Angela, and Emily were cleaning their room and I sitting outside talking to Tommy. I poked his nose a few times while smiling and talking to him. He smiled really big and let out a little laugh. One of the best ever!

The girls came out and of course did all they could to get him to laugh again. We sure are so inlove with Tommy. I don't think he could be in a home where he was loved more.

Flashbacks and more!!! :)

Emily and I will often go to a park after dropping Carolyn and Angela off at school. We started "Obstacle Courses" this week. We think of tricky and various things for Emy to do around the park and then time her to see how fast she can do it. She loves it.

 A few months ago we added to our Nightly Family Devotional "Name the Prophet." Who ever is conducting for that night picks someone to describe a prophet and we figure out which prophet they are talking about. A neat way to hear things our prophets guide us with (like tonight the prophet was President Kimball so we talked all about "DO IT" and lengthening our strive) as well as build our testimonies of Latter-Day prophets.

 Emily is pretty much obsessed with games. We play A. LOT. of games :)

 Flashback of one the very best days of my life...the day Tommy was born!

 Tommy was named "Snoopy" when he was in my tummy. We still call him "Snoopy" sometimes.

 I simply am inlove with this picture...my two boys :) !

 Emily is rocking soccer. She dominates on the field and loves it. Here she is practicing with me in our backyard.

 Field Day at Mortensen Elementary School. Finally, a school that does a real Field Day!! RACES!!! Kids get placed. Finally, what we have been wanting :)

 Tommy is usually in Bronco gear....

 We had our 100 day countdown party!!! We had the Bailies, the Shaws, and Deans over to celebrate.

 Making our 100 day chain for Christmas....
